POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
How do you sleep at night?
Is there a way to the end
Without my blood being shed?
Can I really find happiness
In the arms of another girl
When I can't even find the time
To make sure I got my head right
In this crazy world
How am I going to love again
And I hope you find this alright
I'm just finding it so hard to fight
I didn't mean to wake you momma
But
It's the third night
that I've fallen apart at the bottom of a bottle
How do you sleep at night?
How do you find a reason of why
That life just keeps putting plot...

Falling away
One of my coworkers killed themselves yesterday, made me think even more about how little I feel lately, while others feel so much. Religious, spiritual or none of the above.
People are not great
They're not special
They're distant lights burning out
If
for a moment
They move forward just a bit
A cluster of men and women
Helping each other stay lit
In the blanket of darkness
that surrounds us
Sometimes I see freckles
Of happiness
Sometimes I see blemishes
on the face of Earth
From birth ...

Have I made you proud?
Have I ever made you proud?
When I laughed and smiled like the rest of the kids?
When that same smile wrapped itself around my neck
You watched it slip off my face
And when choking back the tears of my friend's funeral
I couldn't find the words I so helplessly desired
To lower that man with honourable grace
Because I didn't think I even know what love is,
but my words gave their family chills upon the podium,
it wasn't for me it was for them,
I told myself,
but selfishly I think I was reading my own goodbye
Ending it with I wonder...

World of Incomplete
Sometimes I'm glad people can't see the world like I do
Melancholy and all the patterns people use to lie to you
Everyone is so thrilled being swooned by the Haikus
But I find hatred's depth coming on quicker than I'd like it to.
Being bored to reason never solved a thing
But neither is being broken over and over again
I use to find beauty in my emptiness
Because I felt something would come and fill this abyss
But it never did.

Surround me
Another turn around the sun,
just a few
Maybe none, maybe more
maybe all of them
who knows what will come
For sure.
Spend the day yelling
Screaming, fighting, lying
Trying to reach out and hold you
Trying to wed the night
With an ocean of blue
Born without strife
Makes no man's right
strong enough
To stop another's dream
From coming true
So
I love you
And everyone else too.
Just breathe in
And let the pain float away.
Speak life
That's what's been given to you.

Enoch
I asked her what she wanted to be
She whispered..."Alive"
I stood before my father
Blood drenched hands
As the ground swallowed the body
Of a friend that I've outgrown
"Like father like son" I said
But I never wanted this
Being dead,
Just seemed so much easier
I poured the puppy dog tears on my mother
Teased her endlessly in my mind
What a manipulative fiend I've become...
Running from my own hatred
Until it turned into laughter
What good has that gotten me?
I lust for blood...

I Bring The World With Me
It's all about the money
Fake titles and what the fans are loving
Never about the struggle
And how the world stays hungry
Internet celebrities
and gaming for dummies
You led the generation to a mind numbing
Sensational sense fucking
Borrowed time for pleasantries
Worshipped the underlying cause
And affected the common question
With your politically correct arrogant response
While girl's are becoming victims
The men are becoming animals now
The News is creating headlines
To keep people on edge ...

Naked Soul
Your body ever so slightly
Slips into all my cracks nicely
and smooths out my edges
Like a puzzle piece clipping together
The little kisses you give me
snaps my heart into place forever.
Your naked soul dances inside
As I chaperone the beautiful girl outside
It just radiates pure white light
And smothering the dark recesses of my mind
Just before the sun quietly says goodnight.
Your sweet whisper does me in
Like a victim to a trend
I forsake my own design
And fall asleep peacefully against your...

Where God's Agree
This isn't Earth anymore you've created Hell,
Congratulations you all must be so proud
Anxiety-ridden and sweet passionate hatred
For kinds of people who have no real attachment to your life
Your strife, your inexperience to handle confrontation
The petty fights and bullet laced race wars that no one is actually having but in your own mind
It's not fine, it's not just "these people don't speak for us though"
Do they not?
What contribution to a better world has any of us done?
We slave away at a job to which gives us nothing but currency to buy...

In Memory Of Jadie Angelik
You were born within a mind of a man who lost himself, Cody was the true captivating artist, you were the demons he masqueraded as.
The brilliance was incandescent, a planet on fire letting us all see the shadows controlling us. "Play dumb until you die" You loved to tell everyone that lately, who knew how telling it would be, but that's you right?
Keep everyone guessing and see different versions of you so you never get close.
I wonder what it's like to die, are you finally safe and sound, no longer scared of your own mind?
The words on the tip of...

Season of the Mariana
She's as hollow as my words have become
I'm lost inside her bitter scorn
Dreaming of the inch of air above her disasterous tidal wave has formed
No remorse for her weakened prey
I've taught her well in my absent state
She'd tip toe through azaleas on my burial plot in sum.
Her perfect little cannon fodder is gone.
She'd smile while she takes a deep breath and engorge on all my failures that have come
Accidentally,
I've learn the meaning of Martyrdom
Her father must be proud
She's caused the end of the world

Poetic Impact
The way you're so calm and collected
is always unsettling
Bound to my inevitable
underwhelming humanity
An unapologetical catastrophe
Born with an astounding understanding
Of self-deprecating madness that you
Command so proudly
I a worthless combatant
Competitive disadvantage by all accounts
You were raised in a gladiatorial household
Breaking dishes and borderline
Perfect form with stabbing utensils
Oh why is disaster so god damn demanding
Anxiety-ridden little holes in everything
I had come to know ...
