Poet Introduction
My name's Miasmic Asylum I write more than just poetry but I'm just trying to get myself out there. I love writing and I like to receive criticism on my writing.
Resentment
Resentment
Sitting staring
I resent this
This hole in my chest
Where once sat a great love
Now lays a forgotten piece
A forgotten peace I long for, craving.
Crying bleeding
I resent this
This time where the only cure is death
The vaccine promised to never be administered
Brother says forget
Elysium agrees.
Playing smiling
I resent this
Can she be the one
Past Elysium forgotten
But only to be remembered when matters most
Matters most when needed least.
Laying
The final thought being
I...

With this light I see my life, my life in dark cold bland and black.
With this light enlighten me, myself, and I.
Don’t forget to say farewell, farewell to the one I love.
Good bye to the one who cares
Good bye to the one who feigned
Good bye to the one who ate all the pain.
Stay here in melancholia or leave here in excitement.
My hell made just for me
My hands shape the clay
My blood cools the blade
My tears fuel the river.
With this light I see my death, my death bright warm tasteful beauty.
But none...

With this light I see my death, my death bright warm tasteful beauty.

My Beautiful Summer's Eve
My Beautiful Summer's Eve
Our sun descending
love ascending
body shivering
anticipation surrounding
My beautiful summer’s eve
Our sun descending
soft music writes out
the easel of colors
us there without any others
My beautiful summer’s eve
Our sun descending
hands intertwined
lips locked
bodies screaming
My beautiful summer’s eve
Our sun descending
one with each other
love everlasting
our sun is gone

Melancholic Love
Melancholic Love
Gasping, grasping, falling, calling.
Don’t worry, without her life isn’t possible
so all this pain you're feeling
only temporary
only temporary, so contemporary.
All around me air feels heavy
weighing me down
savor the times when I’m under.
If it’s not you it’s me
your presence wrenches my stomach with both butterflies and hornets
Holding on to you, I slowly fall
deeper I dig with your support
I find my hell
No eternal fire and brimstone but torture all the same
my melancholia setting in...

Vows

Did it just get colder,
I don’t feel it when you hold me tight.
I just want to lay my head on your shoulder.
Stay with me and keep me warm tonight.
I’m no longer so shy,
I’ve gotten much bolder.
This is- when I’m with you I fly.
You don’t need to let your feelings smolder.
When I’m with you there’s no need to cry.
I know you tremble with fright.
You know you never need to lie.
The feeling like you need to fight,
you can let it out with one big sigh.
Let me quell your appetite.
Let all the depression die.
I’ll...

The Reason
The Reason
You're the reason I can’t think in the morning, tossing my thoughts around.
You’re the reason why I stay.
You’re the reason my arms are sore.
You’re the reason I party.
You’re the reason I spend the day alone in pain.
You’re the reason I forget about the break.
You’re the reason I love myself; and you’re the reason why I hate myself.
You’re the reason why I pull my hair out.
You’re the reason I cramp from laughter.
You’re the reason why I try...

Maintenance

I’m just a small child
I don’t need to be exposed
watching you smoke
breathing in excess
my lungs shrivel
asthma pains me
and you look and say
nothing sleep little boy
I’m scared and alone
bloody hemorrhage
from the nose
and tracing tracks
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
I don’t know if I’m ready
I’m still in school
it’s too fast
no means no
get off
but I’m weak
and you’re too strong
hold me down with arms
I hope it feels good because I’ll kill you...

Haiku and Senryu
A worthless longing
brings upon the last visiting
sweet winter's embrace
Sweet vanilla seed
sweating perfume smell only
summer’s suicide
Faint engulfing bliss
feeling you chips away stone
my eve parts pitch night
Choke you misheard speech
can’t speak broken words shout out
so I won’t keep you
Why do I fall far
you mean nothing softly said
a stupid spring fling
brings upon the last visiting
sweet winter's embrace
Sweet vanilla seed
sweating perfume smell only
summer’s suicide
Faint engulfing bliss
feeling you chips away stone
my eve parts pitch night
Choke you misheard speech
can’t speak broken words shout out
so I won’t keep you
Why do I fall far
you mean nothing softly said
a stupid spring fling

Only Smile

“Alright, Alright, Alright, Alright
you can do this.”
I want more
Gluttonous be
the so very selfish me
I’m waiting
for an answer
when I know none will come
I am trapped
stuck on the hook
lost somewhere in the zone
“Right, right just...
yeah I don’t want to ruin our
friendship either.”
I do care
not obsession
fine I’ll be a man then
I won’t call
I’ll be a dick
And I’ll treat you like shit
I am lost
but I can see
this will be too much pain
...

I Only Make You Smile
I Only Make You Smile
I see the way you smile and dance,
and I ain’t lying when I say I’m in a trance.
But I don’t resent when I’m in the zone,
being friends with you keeps from being alone.
It hurts when you pass me by,
but I’d rather see you happy over feeding me a lie.
If I have to be your friend,
then my shoulder I will lend.
For you to cry all night on,
or just to carry you with till dawn.
I’ll be the best damn friend you could ever have,
because you’re the best damn reason I have,
to stop slitting and...

Little Donnie found big brother Johnny
limp and painted he almost fainted
twitching figure losing vigor
hole filled with head so many things unsaid
to confess didn't want to leave a mess
he picked swift nothing like the graveyard shift
Donnie became cautious of the faucets that replaced
to see his eyes that to no surprise
they weep due to his brother’s leap.
Dear Anna remember when we’d play in Atlanta
I just wish I could kiss rather than reminisce
I’m not mad but sis...

Constricted
Constricted
If I could cry your name one more time-
If I could feel your words one more time-
If I could see your beauty one more time-
If at last I could then I would-
but my situation constricts me to stay-
If my love was gold you’d have a mine-
If my love was held you’d need a warehouse-
If my love was bled I’d bleed bright red-
If at last it was, with you it would stay-
but my situation constricts me to stay-
If I could lay with you happy again-
If I could walk with...
