Poet Introduction
"I will not die, it's the world that will end." - Unknown
Hypothymia
The sunshine, the grass, the walls; all look piss-yellow
I try every day hoping the lies would end
I go outside; feel the warmth of the sun
See the bumblebee that buzzes over the flowers
The Hummingbird looking for its fix
I might feel a little hug, but it disappears when he notices
Drags me back into the little black box
Not so little anymore; It has gotten bigger as I grew old
My eyes are laced with Ammonia, my mind can't find the cracks
My eyes are used to the burn now and water seen as worse
Vivid nightmares fling my eyes...

Not so little anymore; It has gotten bigger as I grew old
My eyes are laced with Ammonia, my mind can't find the cracks
My eyes are used to the burn now and water seen as worse
Vivid nightmares fling my eyes...

Displaced
So tired but can't sleep
Body heavy eyes shrink
Wheels in the attic squeal
As a presence runs full speed.

No country for weak Men
The stars have fallen down
Like water drops from a shaken tree
They are no where to be found
But I will keep on looking
Willingly.

Pull and Push
Solitude and loneliness greet each other by the door
They cross paths as the day ascends and drops
At times they sit on one chair; I can't tell which is which
They forget that I am here; talk amongst themselves
I am sad that I am not happy, but the silence comforts me
Purpose needs to be birthed, but being with myself gives me peace
I know I don't know who will win, but I know who I want to fill
The house of my spirit, which awaits its king;
I don't have to doubt, but be in the present
With my choices I will hold firm on my head
With...

Accept the love
You have every right to be here
Like the moon and stars
Among the trees and Mars
Nature chose you
Among many eggs
Among many losses
You were birthed
So where to
You choose.

Solitude
Solitude opens the caged up mind
Puts forth the dragons that were never slayed
Puts forth the dragons you didn't know existed
Makes you dance with a sword, as you aim for the head
Until a part of you has won, and a part of you is dead
So the question will remain
Can you slay the dragon
Or the dragon becomes thee?
Can you go on with your life
Knowing your deed?
Puts forth the dragons that were never slayed

Makes you dance with a sword, as you aim for the head
Until a part of you has won, and a part of you is dead
So the question will remain
Can you slay the dragon
Or the dragon becomes thee?
Can you go on with your life
Knowing your deed?

Dollhouse
The house poisoned by
Unfullfilled expectations
Pierces every cell like Radon;
We can't see past this second
Time has become less than
Arid air stuck on our throat
Haven't breathed swiftly in so long;
But with all this decay
Hope sparkles on the curtains
When the sun slowly ascends
Along with it's morning rays.

Primal Power is Nothing to Mess With
There is this rabid dog inside of me that aggressively barks while foaming at the mouth with it's eyes wide open. Anger I can't control takes over my place scaring everyone around me.
When it leaves me, my whole body aches. The back of my neck feels like it has been smacked by a wooden stick. I try to breathe in and out slowly to defuse the after shock Anger has left in its wake.
In the end, sleep puts things back to where they belong. But, for how long? How long until it can not be reversed? Until one of my blood vessels burst? Until blood gushes everywhere inside my...

Pink like eyelids
Love within
Overspills

Staining
Strangers.

13th Rib
You are my everyday
My 24/7
My 30 days a month
My 12 months of heaven
My years have become yours
A familiarity
Which has become innate
Together we make sense
There is no other way
When our Eden
Turns to ash
When our body
Is returned to earth
Even then
You are my Eve
And I am your Adam.

Ethereal paradox
Life sucks, and then we die
Way up high, nothing resides
And yet, I feel
Different; better
When I
Close my eyes
And pray
A form of meditation
That calms me, to accept
My life's decisions
And keeping hope
Tucked in
Under a heart
That Plie and Releve.

Under a heart
That Plie and Releve.
