POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
H
Something about you tells me i can trust,
That your nourish and destroy me, for just about 40 bucks
It would be my choice and you wouldn't be to blame
To accompany my misery, and nod away the pain.
You could teach me how to shoot, uggh that's such a grungy thought
Maybe we could cuddle, but then again probably not
I just wonder what it might be like, to be close to you and not have sex
In sure replacing it with brown, will lead to its own list of separate regrets
I want to get to know you, but im sure I've heard your story before
Not much else could heal...

Everyone Was There
I took a walk to heaven, and every one was there
I saw Jesus and my wife, and everyone that cared
Two cherubs guided me in, my baby and my niece
Robed in silks of white, they had claimed I left in peace
Fret no more they pleaded, propelled by wings that let them fly
No pain, no loss, no grief, essentially no reason to cry
I took a stroll through heaven, and everyone was there
No division of sinners and saints, not a soul was judged unfair
Every felicity committed to memory would consume me in the end
For there would be no struggle, no problems left...

A Flowers Ballad
Like a flower in a book, longing to be adored
I lay and stretch over testaments of life and love before
Like a rock amidst a rolling river, even in the coldest storm
I'll never fret or shiver
Like the morning sun unaffected by the night,
I just want to wake up and greet the world with my light
Clouds come through that make the forecast change
And the sky cries tears that could bring a stone pain
But as the rust recedes the once shiny metal,
It may change and adapt but it will never settle
Content with life as she'll ever be...

Clouds come through that make the forecast change
And the sky cries tears that could bring a stone pain
But as the rust recedes the once shiny metal,
It may change and adapt but it will never settle
Content with life as she'll ever be...

Blood Toll for Contentment
An amazing splendor as seasons change...
but I've laid a blade into my skin.
Another year passes at the speed of light...
and yet again masochism: my friend
I don't know where my story will end...
but right now I crave for pain,
and as my body cries shades of rouge
its apparent I'm acquiring no gain.
I lay it in and cut so deep...
while my dearest are asleep
As they slumber and escape the day,
I think about shit and remain awake
'Its all so vague' I complain,
Its 'yesterdays' bullshit just the same
I just yearn for something...
but I've laid a blade into my skin.

while my dearest are asleep

Untitled 12
Memories line the path I walk
Every step and every brick
Every dear breath that I consume,
Is gone and rarely missed
I wonder it so ----- if the past really matters
Or just sand in the hour glass of life
A useless mirage of meaningless events
A waiting game til you walk into the light
All of the beauty and all of the love
Could crumble at any blink
What lies waiting behind the next minute
I'd be imprisoned by panic to think
A gift of morals from society
A learned list of right and wrong
A blueprint of a conventional life...
Every step and every brick

I wonder it so ----- if the past really matters
Or just sand in the hour glass of life
A useless mirage of meaningless events
A waiting game til you walk into the light
All of the beauty and all of the love
Could crumble at any blink
What lies waiting behind the next minute
I'd be imprisoned by panic to think
A gift of morals from society
A learned list of right and wrong
A blueprint of a conventional life...

A Bed in the Sky
Hours have passed while you lay in my bed,
It's crazy how time flies
Exposed skin & cigarettes
Emotions & lies.
I wrap my lips around you slowly
Until you forget the rest
We both imagine what we could be
If what we had was more than sex.
But thoughts like those drift in the wind
As we start to come down
And we take some more medicine just you and I
so we can stay on our cloud.
High above the world
But on my bed we remain
Ready to satisfy desire
And end this waiting game.
What's mine is yours
What's yours is mine...
It's crazy how time flies
Exposed skin & cigarettes
Emotions & lies.
I wrap my lips around you slowly
Until you forget the rest
We both imagine what we could be
If what we had was more than sex.
But thoughts like those drift in the wind
As we start to come down
And we take some more medicine just you and I
so we can stay on our cloud.
High above the world
But on my bed we remain
Ready to satisfy desire
And end this waiting game.
What's mine is yours
What's yours is mine...

Like Cigarettes Burn
Like cigarettes burn
Broken memoirs of our time
We've wanted each other so bad
Close by but never mine
Another kiss from Roxy
Another kiss from Ash
Another swallow and
imaginary medicine will pass
You've showed me this world
Some good and some bad
Inevitably
My time with you has been had
A desire makes me long
For knowledge of where this road will go
But like cigarettes that burn complete
It's best if I never know
Broken memoirs of our time
We've wanted each other so bad
Close by but never mine
Another kiss from Roxy
Another kiss from Ash
Another swallow and
imaginary medicine will pass
You've showed me this world
Some good and some bad
Inevitably
My time with you has been had
A desire makes me long
For knowledge of where this road will go
But like cigarettes that burn complete
It's best if I never know
