I'm Not Right For Anybody
Well I can't lie
I'm a nice guy,
At least I give it my best try,
But sometimes someone
Irks me just right,
Enough to feel buff
And start a fight.
On most nights
I won't even try,
I see you ain't bad,
Just havin' a hard time,
But once you start
Takin' it out on me,
Pushin' or shovin'
Just cause' we disagree,
I'll add a new noose to
Your family tree.
I'll take you from them,
You just take it from me.
Well I'm not right for anybody,
I can't lie,
The truth is just too easy. ...

Love
The hardest hearts fall apart still beating.
They say it starts growing dark once bleeding-
Only the strong can move on once broken,
But I deplore, there is more unspoken.
Even the mighty still have their moments,
Weakened by the strong heart's true torment:
A brand new face that radiates sheer lust,
Can weaken knees, with meakened pleas from us,
Can slyly silence the loudest creatures,
Can finely brighten the shrouded features
Of a, once happy, humans' love filled eyes,
And completely rescue them from demise.
So, perhaps love isn't...

An Ex,
someone you've left
perpetually vexed-
heart ripped right
from her poor chest.
Intentions are best,
yet they're still left
feeling like they
are less than the rest.
Part of me cares,
part of me cries,
part of me says
that they were all lies,
that I felt nothing
while watching her eyes,
but I can't act like I planned her demise.
I just want love,
I just want trust.
I want a bond that won't end in rust,
something worth having,
I feel that I must,
but everytime it ends up a...

Symbiotic
You know not why you're now here,
just that you are bound by fear-
(and a couple incised wires)
watching me, enticed with pliers.
Naked, cold, taught, and crying,
you can't move, although you're trying.
All stretched out, upon your stomach,
odors retch, your nostrils plummet.
Your head aches and thoughts are clouding,
slowly, memories are shrouding.
You ask out of blatant fear,
"Please, why have you brought me here?!"
"Now, now, settle down my dear,
the time to disclose that is near.
For now, just try to hold quite still, ...

Far Away
Somewhere out there, far away
From everything that I intake
Lives a girl who owns my world,
She's the reason that it twirls.
I fear her heart is spoken for
by the mighty oceans roar,
And like an eagle, how she soars,
I've never loved like this before.
I hope you know somebody cares,
I hope you know somebody stares.
I hope you never lose yourself
Chasing after someone else.
Somewhere out there, just in sight,
Are the reasons for my blight;
I'm ready for true love right now,
And she'll never settle down. ...

Soiled Roots
Born to a saint, the greatest woman of all,
Dad left me a bastard after two years involved,
the saint had two other growing babies already,
she knew the three of us would eat a lot of spaghetti,
so she dropped us all off with her cousin while she
went to a trade school to get a degree,
to afford all the meals that she wants to feed me,
but It killed her inside,
The look in her children's eyes
when she said for the time
That "babies this is goodbye".
She comin back though yall
Spent half a million minutes mastering her...

Travesty
I'm madly in love with a version of you that used to exist.
You leave my heart brusied, blackened and blued, with violent twists.
I dream of things that make me scream
out of sheer denial,
like sometimes being good enough to be worth your while;
but then I wake and morning takes all the ground I earn,
I go to you, with love most true, but I never learn.
Travesty, tragedy, trouble me no more,
I can't see that I will see my vision restored.
Being teased, by you, with ease,
Then being ignored;
optical anamolies always leave me floored....

Dreamons
The Demons I dream of
are far, far worse
Than those you might face
once you ride a hearse;
Even more ghastly,
more ghoulish, and foul,
Than any endeveavored
out of someone's mouth.
The Demons I dream of
are deranged and desperate,
They gleam of the strangest
desires that I've met.
The demons I dream of
are obscure infections,
What scares me most is
they bear my reflection.
The demons I dream of
are merciless hosts,
The worst of their kind,
I don't mean to boast;
But they tantalize, ...

Bringer of Beatles
Behold the bounty
Of berserking bugs,
Whilst Barely not blinded
By the their bustled busts.
I, Bringer of Beatles,
Biting abroad,
Burrowing deep,
Biting a broad,
Bolder than brave,
But braver than most,
Have been this way long,
But no need to boast,
I am the scurrying,
blurring blank line
That will band the bugs
With all of mankind.
I am the blackest,
Most burnt, but my bite
Will bid you a seething
Most blatant of blights.
Bring now your bosom,
Bend when I bark,
Then I will chew...
