Poet Introduction
Writing was not always a thing I did but once I found it in me it was ever so hard to walk away. Now a novice I am but discouraged I'm not for I know I have much to learn and I have a young soul...
Masochistic Love
Iron is all I can taste
from the blood rushing down my throat,
and your hands are bruised from the punches
you keep giving at the wall.
Who would have guessed that I would end up this way,
loving to hate myselft and hating to love you,
and all this happily ever after bullshit's
got nothing in this twisted relationship we share.
You hit me in the face when I ask you what's wrong
and you laugh that evil laughter,
and you give me that crooked smile,
and you fuck me again until I cannot speak.
People say that we are not...

Home Sick
Today, two years ago,
I departed from the country that watched me grow,
that saw my sorrow, my falls and my love.
I've gone so far
and at the same time, I've been left behind,
being only a part of everyone's memories.
Last night I cried
to the grey sky, because even the sky has changed
nothing's the same anymore and I feel so lost.
This energy is consuming
every little bit of what's left of my soul,
and I know that, to move on, I must let go.
How is it that you can go
and live in so many places, meeting so many people,...

Hurt
Just hold on for a moment
And remember what was once
The only truth for the both of us.
For my sanity believe me
When I say I can't do this,
Because it's a slow torture.
I feel I'm in an emotional comma
Will your kiss save my soul?
Or will this be my final blow?
Forget everything just for tonight
I've been waiting for this moment
For so long, it's been too long.
And now the moment is gone
And it's too late to go back
And make things right again.

Will this ever stop?
Why am I feeling so bipolar?
I feel I'm going insane
I'm slowly losing my mind
Like my head's on the fast lane
You're here
You're not
I love you
But you can't.
This is killing me inside
I'm in a different set of mind
And there's nowhere I can hide
Cuz it's you who everywhere I find.
Please forgive me if I hurt you
By still pouring my heart out
By keep on having this feelings
I know I shouldn't have.
This wasn't supposed to happen
I never meant for this to go this way,
I just hope that one day
I'll...

Done with this love
I thought we were in love
that I was the one for you,
I had fixed your heart
pieced it together for you.
How could I ever imagined
you were to go back to that bitch,
the one who made you dance
in that burning unsettling ground.
Who made you sing your lungs out
for the world to hear your love for her,
just to laugh at you
and crush everything you dreamt of.
Now I'm here
putting the pieces of your heart together;
showing you that there's still hope,
hope that you can love once again.

Never the End
I want to stop crying for you
because this is breaking me beyond repair
I want to stop thinking of you
because this love is no longer in the air.
How did we end up like this?
With me here and you over there
so untouchable, so unreachable,
like a mirrage that was never real.
I want to believe that it did exist
that there was a time where we loved each other,
I want to believe that it wasn't a dream
that there was so much more we could've offered.
But you're long gone by now
and I'm left with only the memories ...

Cornered
That girl in the corner
she sits there every day
I know because I'm always here
thinking of what I can say.
That girl that sits in the corner,
she seems to be waiting for something;
a friend, a boyfriend, a girlfriend perhaps,
that's too bold for me to think.
The girl in the corner seems sadder
as the days and weeks pass by,
she seemed so hopeful at the start
but now it looks like she's about to cry.
Should I go talk to her?
her corner looks like a fortress,
where no one can invade,
like those that hold...

Hookah
Head is spinning
Song is playing
Smoke's filling the air
Do you want some?
You gotta work for it
Come and hit it.
Grinding against each other
For fun, for lust
Filling our lungs out.

Can you stay out of my mind?
because it's hard enough
to have you right in front of me
every single day of the week.
You show up in my dreams
and show me there's a chance
to lose myself and who I am
with just a kiss of your lips.
And in real life
when I see you here,
you just ignore me
and you have no idea.
My head's out to get me
driving me entirely insane
I never asked for this
you're only meant to be a mistake.
I won't turn bi for you
Because dick is something I don't do;
but in my mind your lips...

Over Thinker
What defines us as human beings?
As thinkers of this new generation.
Can we say that we have done something meaningful?
When is it too late to start over again?
Life seems to be full of questions for some people
For others, there's simply no analysis;
There's only parties and good times.
Can I be like them?
Not having to worry,
Not caring for what life has to throw at me.
Why do I focus on the ground in which I fall after every step?
Is it ok for me to question every question that goes through my mind?

Given Chances
There's no turning back.
Can I imagine a life in which this never happens? I can.
Would I have taken that path? Probably not.
I can't seem to organize my ideas in a way that it all makes sense, but I suppose it's OK as long as I am still alive.
"Why did you decide to take the trip?"
Honestly? To get fucked up in an attempt to forget that she had shattered any hopes and memories of happiness that my heart had ever felt.
"I was homesick."
"Does your family own a cannabis farm and liquor shop?"
