Shell Shine
Does my light exist within the Earth Shine?
I wish I could be personality blind
My hatred face inward, I'm afraid of my end
I can see my conclusion around the bend
I feel my moon illusion growing strong
I avoid all mirrors to say I belong
I only recognize myself when I'm alone
Do I fear being heard on the phone?
Good morning, moonlight
I'm trapped in the night
My honest truth burns a blight
I only laugh when I fly a kite
I'll hide within my shut-in-shell
Please don't ask why, I'll die as well
I cannot forgive, I...

The Basics to a Healthy Life
Let there be light. Let there be belief. Let us say that there are higher beings.
Now, this is coming from a self-declared atheist who believes that there is no god and there are no higher beings. This is coming from someone that believes that there is nothing that exists after we die.
However, I remain open to the idea of all religions. I believe that there is no afterlife but I hold the idea that I could be wrong. I fully understand that some people would categorize that as agnostic as opposed to atheist. However, this is how I see and define it; I do not know what...

Southwest Corner
Hey there
Why don't you sit here all day
Waste your life away
Until you're old and gray
Hey, no, you're no longer here
Hey, no, you're no longer near
Hey, no, I'm leaving you, my dear
It's not your fault but lines are fine
Hey there
Why don't you go to hell and die
We can listen to the sky
While you just get high
Hey there
I'll sit amongst the bones
As we listen to the simple drones
As we wait for the ringing final phones
Hey there
Why don't you sit here all day
Waste your life away
Until you're old and gray
Hey, no, you're no longer here
Hey, no, you're no longer near
Hey, no, I'm leaving you, my dear
It's not your fault but lines are fine
Hey there
Why don't you go to hell and die
We can listen to the sky
While you just get high
Hey there
I'll sit amongst the bones
As we listen to the simple drones
As we wait for the ringing final phones
Hey there

The Soul of Ten-Thousand Wonders
You are someone that I don’t understand. You make fun yet you care, and while that is normal for most people, you have an air about you that is thicker than would appear on first glance.
Hello my Purple-haired King of Everything the Light Touches.
I cannot figure you. I cannot figure you out.
You seem like someone who is very open towards everyone around them and likes to be revealed and not withhold secrets.
However, no one seems to even know you.
You’re an enigma as much as your ideals.
What is your purpose?
I...

A Universe Removed
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say.
But someone did. Or, some thing did. It heard us screaming out into the void for answers. It listened to us casting our calls out to see if we were alone in the vast emptiness of the universe and it decided to respond.
At first, the only things to notice were the telescopes and observatories. They sent back data the deep-space and intergalactic dust was moving at a rate that just did not make sense. Things were moving and transforming before our eyes on time-scales that were alien and dangerous. The...

Grounded in Agency
I think it was closure for you, to see that I hadn't grown up
As if all I learned to do were worthless in your cup
Thinking, I found a mistake of misconstrued lust
Something I didn't intend to take but, I understand, judgement just
I never see myself as El, but I do imagine you as Athirat
Ashratu seems appropriate to tell, maybe Inanna and also Anat
Are you the daughter of the moon, Ishtar was your selling stone
I look back as for a boon; I should not ask, finite alone
Agency
None of this is directed at you
My introspection is not...

Self Provided Philosophical Fellatio
Am I normal?
Am I regular?
Am I different?
Am I special?
How do I fit in?
Where do I fit in?
Who are my people?
Where is my home?
These are all questions that in this modern age of a more liberal society all young adults are almost required to ask themselves. Everywhere, people always want to know where they fit in and how they are special. But the problem with this progression fueled thought process where we give people more and more reins and labels to control themselves and live their own lives, as they...

A#2
I feel myself fly up; All back from the abyss
Another empty cup; I feel my own sweet kiss
I fly above my bed; I see myself so calm
Peaceful like a body, dead; I know I won't see dawn
I know what's coming now; I feel it in my heart
But no more I can grow; A pin prick like a dart
A bottle rests beside me; Standing a mile tall
I know that I'll be free; No matter how far I crawl
I don't know the words to my own sad song
Even though I know it won't be too long
Until I'll be whisked away
And my life will end today
They...

Demon
You bitch, I trusted you
Even though you built our feud
You never told the truth
You fought the wrong side, bone and tooth
We shared our true thoughts
You turned my heart in knots
I agreed with every word you said
But I didn't know your mind was lead
I followed all your hope and dreams
I believed in all your skinny jeans
I know that you didn't believe it
But you really turned it all to shit
You lied to her, you lied to us
But we never took time to make a fuss
Your beliefs are wrong, you are insane
And...

Fractured Mentality
You are asking for fun
While I am eating alone
You are yelling and screaming
While I'm waiting on my phone
Maybe I should change
Maybe I should try
Possibly I could find a new meaning in strange
Luck was never on my side
I changed tempos faster than a sweetener
Pain followed me everywhere
I see you go forward and beat her
Maybe I could speak up
Maybe I would lie to myself
Possibly I'll stare past and never forgive the cup
I have my geocentric, egocentric, eccentric
Excuse for a life

Freedom of a Beggar
Ask for everything when you can lose
Soon you will, all that you can use
Rose-tint my world in a shade of green
Now you can't speak, for you are my queen
I will keep you hidden away
For you look molded straight from clay
Oh my dearest, hopeless doll
I will never allow you to fall
Freedom is a point of view
Your locked jail is true
I do believe you owe me what's due
Freedom is a point of view
The distance is minuscule while too spacious difference is infinite
There seems to be more space between our minds than...
Soon you will, all that you can use
Rose-tint my world in a shade of green
Now you can't speak, for you are my queen
I will keep you hidden away
For you look molded straight from clay
Oh my dearest, hopeless doll

Freedom Through Martyrdom
If I jump, will you catch me
If I cut, will you heal me
If I swing, will you lower me
If I die, will you help me
If you free me, am I still me
Flying is a construct of the mind
Sleeping is a creation of a coma
Bleeding is an invention of the body
Dying is an occurrence of a life
Why not expedite rather than suffer like a troglodyte
Why not release rather than be a feast for others
Spinning is a construct of the world
Fainting is a creation of pressure
Experience is an invention of a system
Hurting...
If I cut, will you heal me
If I swing, will you lower me
If I die, will you help me
If you free me, am I still me
Flying is a construct of the mind
Sleeping is a creation of a coma
Bleeding is an invention of the body
Dying is an occurrence of a life
Why not expedite rather than suffer like a troglodyte
Why not release rather than be a feast for others
