POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Glorification of the Mundane
Keep yourself and things surface level clean
The kind of clean your mother would be appalled by
But your friends hardly notice
Enough to keep yourself afloat as if you are doing enough
Your head above the level of grime that takes over your fridge
You wished for more than this
You thought you deserved more
Maybe you don’t
Maybe you are just the same as the rest
You have different tastes sure
But the line that separates you from the rest is razor thin
You’ve had a little extra trauma and sadness
The bags under your eyes just tell...
The kind of clean your mother would be appalled by
But your friends hardly notice
Enough to keep yourself afloat as if you are doing enough
Your head above the level of grime that takes over your fridge
You wished for more than this
You thought you deserved more
Maybe you don’t
Maybe you are just the same as the rest
You have different tastes sure
But the line that separates you from the rest is razor thin
You’ve had a little extra trauma and sadness
The bags under your eyes just tell...

Bottle it up
I was the fountain of youth
But now I am running dry
I was dying inside
The streams of my mind came to the well of life
Now through strength and love
I built a dam in my mind
I no longer cry
Now I feel like I can live without wanting to die
It is constant and overflowing
One day it will burst I know that inside
But through strength and love
I’ll find a way to survive
Because I would rather die on my knees than give in the ones who followed me here
Because I would rather die on my knees than...
But now I am running dry
I was dying inside
The streams of my mind came to the well of life
Now through strength and love
I built a dam in my mind
I no longer cry
Now I feel like I can live without wanting to die
It is constant and overflowing
One day it will burst I know that inside
But through strength and love
I’ll find a way to survive
Because I would rather die on my knees than give in the ones who followed me here
Because I would rather die on my knees than...

Disgust
Caressing her skin
I watch you sleaze
Her intoxicated mind starts to wonder
And you there to simply exploit her
I will not stand for it
Get your hand off her
She's not yours she is far to pure
Her beauty superior sit back and slumber
You will never grasp what's is going on with her
A broken desperate mess is all she is
And by doing this all you do is match her
Why have you ruined her
I wish you nothing
I hope you rot
I watch you sleaze
Her intoxicated mind starts to wonder
And you there to simply exploit her
I will not stand for it
Get your hand off her
She's not yours she is far to pure
Her beauty superior sit back and slumber
You will never grasp what's is going on with her
A broken desperate mess is all she is
And by doing this all you do is match her
Why have you ruined her
I wish you nothing
I hope you rot

deep forest
Deep forest the giver of life
With grappling branches that hold you so tight
Holding you in the air
Not letting you down for breath
You choke your life
Your body's going cold
I've dreamed of this a thousand times
Deep forest
The taker of life
Taker of life is all you are
The nooses accompanist
Take my life
You've taken hers
Promise me her and my throat is yours
FOR LIFE
Ever feel the chill at night
Ever feel the wind
That's deep forest
Holding you closer and closer
Until your 4 feet of the ground...
With grappling branches that hold you so tight
Holding you in the air
Not letting you down for breath
You choke your life
Your body's going cold
I've dreamed of this a thousand times
Deep forest
The taker of life
Taker of life is all you are
The nooses accompanist
Take my life
You've taken hers
Promise me her and my throat is yours
FOR LIFE
Ever feel the chill at night
Ever feel the wind
That's deep forest
Holding you closer and closer
Until your 4 feet of the ground...
