SHE TOLD ME TO STAY
AND I KNEW WHAT WE’D DO JUST BY SEEING THAT LOOK ON HER FACE.
I COULDN’T WAIT,
I COULD TELL BY HER EYES SHE WOULD EAT ME ALIVE
SO I STAYED.
I NEED TO FEEL THIS PART OF YOU, IT AWAKENS ME.
I NEED TO BE INSIDE YOUR HEART, IN YOUR THOUGHTS.
OH, I CANNOT WAIT, TO FEEL YOU ALL OVER ME.
GIVE YOURSELF TO ME, FEEL THIS ELECTRIC ENERGY.
GET DOWN, DOWN ON YOUR KNEES NOW.
OH HOW I LOVE THE MESSAGE YOUR BODY CONVEYS.
SLOW DOWN, FEEL ME NOW.

I gave to you
23,
Pieces of what make me, me.
A gift I gave so you could be
Yourself and still,
A part of me.
You give to me,
All I need.
Love felt exponentially.
So this should come as no surprise,
You are perfection in my eyes.

Internal Eyes
FROM DARKENED SKIES, TO ENDLESS SEAS.
TO THINGS WE HEAR BUT CANNOT SEE.
THE RAGING FIRES, WE CAN’T CONTROL.
THE MYSTERY THAT IS OUR SOUL.
THE THINGS IN LIFE THAT WE CAN’T EXPLAIN
BECOME THE MYTHS WE PRAISE BY NAME.
{HIDDEN DIMENSIONS AND REALITIES.}
{SPECTRUMS OF LIGHT THAT CAN HIDE WHAT WE SEE.}
{FOR ALL I KNOW.}
{WHERE ARE THE ONES WHO ARE THINKING LIKE ME?}
{DO YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL?}
{ALL ALONE}
SO QUESTION ALL OF THE CLAIMS THAT THEY PREACH.
WITH KNOWLEDGE COMES THE TRUTH WE SEEK.
UNTIL WE FIND THE, THE STRENGTH TO...

Do you ever feel like there's something that's not right?
Take a look around in this ten seconds of light.
Do you ever feel like they're feeding us their lies?
With everything we know, do you really think we'll be....Alright?
Take a little trip to the center of your mind.
Down the rabbit hole where we lose all sense of time.
Here we find a way to beat them at their own game.
Once they have no scape goat, who is left to blame?
I don't need anyone to defend the reasons for your war.
I don't need you to tell me what you believe we're...

Aura
Disjointed thoughts somehow find Synchronicity deep within the chaotic Mind.
Simultaneously scattering and Attracting all at once and still at Different times.
Like light refracting through a prism,
The colors always shine,
Brighter in their independence.
Invisible when confined.
Somewhere in hidden spectrums
A connection does reside,
To infinite dimensions,
Where existence unifies.
Yet as the seconds pass,
We continue life so blind.
There's energy around us,
Created from Inside.

Fractions of a Dollar
Wake up at 4am. 10hrs later I’m on my way home…if I’m lucky. Hours blend into days, which blend into months, to years. Every week is a slap in the face. These fractions of a dollar barely adding up enough to live. Yes it may be worse in other parts of the world, but I’m here, not there. Is it unfortunate that I lack the pseudo optimism that drives the worker ants to serve their queen? Reluctantly I become one of the hive. Just another drone. Working to make the boss rich with my life, the value of my time. Spare a few drops of nectar? Not by choice but by necessity. Lines of cars on the...

Self Aware
Self medicate to forget what’s been broken.
Reanimate the essence of what this feels like.
Reformulate the truth of our evolution,
To elevate the consciousness of this world.
As years go by, the child stays inside. It watches and waits while the world teaches us life.
The body grows it outpaces the mind.
The elementary answers are the hardest to find.
Yet some will forget and some will deny,
While the others repress this child left inside.
The body will age, it will wither and it will die.
Leaving the shell of a person behind. ...

Different Worlds
They think you're crazy.
They call you lazy.
Judgements placed,
Though never to your face.
Fake smiles from crocodiles.
Apathetic to their denial.
But now it's clear to me,
How this all came to be.
From a place void of empathy.
Where forgiveness is your apology
And love is shown monetarily.
Keep your notions pre-conceived.
Choke on the words you speak of me.
I'll revel in this irony,
Existing hypothetically.
Here's the truth you cannot see...
If affection became currency

Of I and Me
In dreams she speaks to me,
The way it was always meant to be.
In time these moments freeze.
Preserving this,
Our eternity.
Finding solace in the possibilities,
Of my alternate realities.
Where my happiness is drawn to me
And can't escape so easily.
A contrast to this current state,
In which my being emulates
The optimism of what could be,
Cocooned in negativity.
The metamorphosis of I and Me.
The way it was always meant to be.
In time these moments freeze.
Preserving this,
Our eternity.

Of my alternate realities.

And can't escape so easily.
A contrast to this current state,

The optimism of what could be,
Cocooned in negativity.

My Fractal Consciousness
I deconstructed myself long ago
And they watched as the pieces fell.
My observable chaos
The entertainment for those around me.
Curious to the nature of my own evolution,
The ascension became a necessity
And with this awareness,
Came the beauty of the spiral.
In tune with this fractal consciousness,
I bore witness to
My own personal entropy.

By A String
Orbital annotations circle this body of work
As weighted worries stack like the straw on the proverbial camel's back.
The sound you hear may be the snap.
Though if you listen carefully
To infinite voices pleading with their own self healing properites,
To calm the waves of uncertainty.
To navigate insanity.
Find beauty in asymmetry.
Then somewhere deep within a dream
We find our commonality.
This common bond that life will bring,
Is that we all hang by a string.

Echos of Desire
Swallow your pride and your fear tonight.
All the way down.
Integrate this for the greatest delight.
Feel me now.
Tremble with pleasure, it feels so right.
No control.
Bodies electric, we bathe in light.
Secrets known.
Addiction to the passion is echoing desire.
Your body one with mine as the flame is to the fire.
This energy around us, becoming amplified.
Just give yourself to me and you will be satisfied.
