POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Loneliness breeds inner strength. Consumed by depression, I will not be. Cold the personalities fence. Warm the feelings inside of me
Timeless
Every time that I go to bed
I want to cry
only hope is if I dream again
you'll come say hi
Life was good until you're gone
lost my wife, and my friend
I'll love you always and forever
we're Timeless
Can't move on, I'm broken now
Fix me? I'll just pretend
This world is not where we belong
because we're Timeless
I want to cry
only hope is if I dream again
you'll come say hi
Life was good until you're gone
lost my wife, and my friend
I'll love you always and forever
we're Timeless
Can't move on, I'm broken now
Fix me? I'll just pretend
This world is not where we belong
because we're Timeless

I
I feel my chest explode, I
I feel nothing you know, I
I feel it closing in, in my
I, I I I, I I I
I don't give up or quit, I
and I don't take no shit, I
I bet you won't forget it, when I
I, I I I, I I I
What's more important than? I
coordinate my hand, and EYE
devise the perfect plan, simply
I, I I i, I I I
I'm on some Thanos shit, I
but I don't need those gems, I
controlling all of it, with my
I, I I I, I I
I
I feel nothing you know, I
I feel it closing in, in my
I, I I I, I I I
I don't give up or quit, I
and I don't take no shit, I
I bet you won't forget it, when I
I, I I I, I I I
What's more important than? I
coordinate my hand, and EYE
devise the perfect plan, simply
I, I I i, I I I
I'm on some Thanos shit, I
but I don't need those gems, I
controlling all of it, with my
I, I I I, I I
I

The Future Looks Dark
You will drown in its ability to break
Take you down
Life will see
Just how much
You can take
To your soul, it will scar, like nothing ever before
Dying love can result in feeling numb to the core
I've been dead now for all these past years
Nothing changes
Same pain, same tears
Out of focus, being sober seems strange
Getting stoned barely helps me cope
With my life being rearranged
I can't stop the bleeding
But I'm not dead, just yet
If life has lost its meaning
Then ill find life in something...
Take you down
Life will see
Just how much
You can take
To your soul, it will scar, like nothing ever before
Dying love can result in feeling numb to the core
I've been dead now for all these past years
Nothing changes
Same pain, same tears
Out of focus, being sober seems strange
Getting stoned barely helps me cope
With my life being rearranged
I can't stop the bleeding
But I'm not dead, just yet
If life has lost its meaning
Then ill find life in something...

Ask Yourself
I was born to bleed
I was made for pain
I look back on my life, and it's all a shame
Going round and round
never slowing down
Took the smile from my face, all I do is frown
I feel so numb sometimes
Ask yourself, is this real life?
All I do is cry
cause she had to die
I look back all I have are more questions, why?
I don't have a heart, its been torn apart
Left me cold and alone, a good place to start
Start building walls so high
Ask yourself, is this real life?
I was born to shine
Now the...
