Poet Introduction
I write mostly about my day to day emotions, experiences, and thoughts. Every fucked up thought I have usually ends up here.

hello, God, are you there?
Guess it's whatever.
At least, it is until tomorrow
When my mind does a 180° turn
And burns me from the inside out.
My pieces have been scattering,
Lost in the wind.
All that remains is dust,
Helplessly waiting
For new creation
And new breath of life
Deep within my weary bones.
At least, it is until tomorrow
When my mind does a 180° turn
And burns me from the inside out.
My pieces have been scattering,
Lost in the wind.
All that remains is dust,
Helplessly waiting
For new creation
And new breath of life
Deep within my weary bones.

Come to Pass
I live inside a world of daydreams,
Curled up inside it
Like a nest of blankets,
So warm and so soft.
Here I can nurse these flashes
Of what the future may hold,
And run with it
Until I have woven an entire universe
In my head
Where this destination exists,
Along with five or fifteen more.
I stand paralyzed at the crossroads,
As the world spins 360° around me.
I am all alone,
But the air still seems to crush me.
The devil brushes my hair back
To lean in my ear,
Whispering of all the things ...
Curled up inside it
Like a nest of blankets,
So warm and so soft.
Here I can nurse these flashes
Of what the future may hold,
And run with it
Until I have woven an entire universe
In my head
Where this destination exists,
Along with five or fifteen more.
I stand paralyzed at the crossroads,
As the world spins 360° around me.
I am all alone,
But the air still seems to crush me.
The devil brushes my hair back
To lean in my ear,
Whispering of all the things ...

I Did This for Me (Subliminally for You)
A new cycle brings a tired repeat
Of former transgressions I've seen before.
As if last time was not enough,
I begin another endeavor that will drive me to the floor.
On my knees again, this time to pray,
I'm begging God to change me from the inside out.
I've been losing hope again;
It happens whenever I question what my life is about.
Quick fixes never help me;
I know this time will be no different than the last.
Habits die hard with a horrid shriek,
As I keep trying to deal with my past.
Daily habits...
Of former transgressions I've seen before.
As if last time was not enough,
I begin another endeavor that will drive me to the floor.
On my knees again, this time to pray,
I'm begging God to change me from the inside out.
I've been losing hope again;
It happens whenever I question what my life is about.
Quick fixes never help me;
I know this time will be no different than the last.
Habits die hard with a horrid shriek,
As I keep trying to deal with my past.

16 Pages
A sixteen page letter
Is what I wrote to you.
I've tucked it away
For another day,
To read when
I don't feel so blue.
My head burns
With all these concerns,
I push em down
But they come back around
To haunt me
At every turn.
Maybe you'll skip
Over pages and rip
Words made useless
By years of excuses.
Ears deaf to
All the good tips.
Love you forever
Even not together
Part of me
You'll always be
We are bound
To one another
Is what I wrote to you.
I've tucked it away
For another day,
To read when
I don't feel so blue.
My head burns
With all these concerns,
I push em down
But they come back around
To haunt me
At every turn.
Maybe you'll skip
Over pages and rip
Words made useless
By years of excuses.
Ears deaf to
All the good tips.
Love you forever
Even not together
Part of me
You'll always be
We are bound
To one another

out of the mouth of babes
this is not the best day ever
a deep sadness lingers in your eyes,
but you struggle to bring it to words.
you rest your head in my arms
as I hold you tight and tell you
it's alright to feel what you feel,
but there's times you stare at the floor
with nothing but silent confusion
I wish I could be two places at once
my heart feels like it's being ripped
from my chest, as if the split
was only yesterday's agony.
I remember all the times I failed you
when I didn't come when I said I would,
and I think...

Possibilities
after all this time, why now?
pride is a heavy thing
attached to me like a dark cloak
underneath which I hide
to conceal my heart
as it hangs from my chest
how could I ever trust you again?
I'm not even certain
that I trust myself
or these treacherous things
I have been thinking lately
but I am willing to give
everything to you
holding on to the hem
of Jesus' garment
you're nothing but a junkie
that fear cripples me
each and every day I wake up
even when a...

squabbles in my head
Truth is, I love the chase.
Rejection feeds my appetite
In all it's insatiable glory.
On the highest peak
With the wind whispering
All the sweet nothings they told me.
foolish girl
keep that mask on
as the rest of the world does
walk through life with your fists up
and you will always be goddamn fighting
Rejection feeds my appetite

Abattoir
Scattered like a scared herd
Stampeding the earth
Kicking up clouds of dust
Into the dry air.
A sense of looming doom
Towers over us
Like the eyes of heaven
If it's balconies were overrun
Overwhelmed at every angle
We are fatigued and drugged
Into disgruntled submission
Quietly, nervously awaiting
A sense of foreboding
Or overly anxious nerves
Meet the breaking silence
Hearing indignant bellows.
Chaotically, we march to our deaths
With no particular order,

Nightmare
Imagine not seeing tweaky tinkering for what it was,
Seeing the trap house as a mere gathering of misfits
In a home away from home where the house mom fed everyone,
And falling head over heels for a dopehead
In all his pathetic glory.
Imagine loving him with a madness
unrivaled by all of Shakespeare's visions
But still just as tragic.
Picture the pitying stares and all the "bless your heart" quibbles
that went unseen by my naive eyes.
Eyes that took in the sights with naked abandon
and painted a scene so romantic,

Booty Call
You get me off,
But I kinda can't stand you.
You look like everything
I don't want to be.
Your sad boy crusades annoy me;
At least mine don't flood your messages.
Nothing about me fits in your life,
And I hate the way it has changed me.
Tonight, I scapegoat you,
As my troubles fade away
With the rhythm
Of flesh on flesh
And control lost.
But I kinda can't stand you.
You look like everything
I don't want to be.
Your sad boy crusades annoy me;
At least mine don't flood your messages.
Nothing about me fits in your life,
And I hate the way it has changed me.
Tonight, I scapegoat you,
As my troubles fade away
With the rhythm
Of flesh on flesh
And control lost.

A Child's Command
She told him that he had to kiss me,
With eyes full of innocent plea.
Poor baby girl does not understand,
And my heart sinks to see how she's torn.
She said she wished
That she could be two places at once.
"Or you know you could share...
Like together, right?"
If only the weight of all our wrongs
Didn't feel so heavy,
If only I was still the one he craved,
If only the person I am
Presented the slightest idea
That I would ever change.
I'm one foot out the door forever,
I fear the damage caused
By...
With eyes full of innocent plea.
Poor baby girl does not understand,
And my heart sinks to see how she's torn.
She said she wished
That she could be two places at once.
"Or you know you could share...
