Right or Wrong
If I am abnormality
To what sense is there reality?
For if I am but a problem
To what recourse. is there, to solve them?
If from the womb, I was unwanted
Why must I run, become the hunted?
If tonite, I make my bed
To awake in pools of red,
and I leave behind, these words of song,
Whose to say, if but I, was ever Right or Wrong?

Soon
I walk along, without sense of being
Step by step, no path, no meaning
Purpose gone, physically tattered, withered
Faith grows stronger, the inner voice whispers
Words unknown, unclear the message
Blindly I turn, seek out a new passage
Pavement becomes rougher, I cower into recluse
Locked somewhere within, behind unforgiving doors, I remain timeless
No blooms left to the flowers, In pain, I must shower
Relief cannot find, confused, abused, never mind me
The door closes, no one listens, I wake up, the blood quickens
My demons all around me, though I...

Until The Rain Returns
Dusk arrives, the leaves rustle as the latest raindrops introduce the onset of the evening storm
thunders crash, the wind blows the sash away, my window welcomes the rain,
my prison tolerant to the calm brought upon my lonely world once again
angels whisper, the air becomes cripser, my lips soften with the moisture
my thoughts now escape, for years now had forsaken me
no love lost, the greens welcome the cost
payemt made, seasons passing, happiness returned, now everlasting
a brighter future, wounds closed, softly sutured
pains exposed, no longer masked,...

The illusion
Paths become entwined, we just stare away
To walk on, or forever remain this way
One pain, covers another, a scar lifted, truths recovered
time heals all wounds, but in time, more wounds birthed
abortion of thought, inner sanctum fogged, faith lost
under surveilance, why do you watch me?
confused or deranged, doesn't matter
I will remain this way
i turn around, feel the touch of your stare
lost in this world, i alone must partake, no one cares
in dream, wide awake, it all remains the same
is this dream, or this some twisted reality?

Bound By Flesh, Freed by death
On the winds of change, I follow to conformity
Labyrinths unlocked, My own hell, demons tunting me
Await in darkness, minutes turn to hours
ashes from embers, roots entwined, once flowers
screams from beyond, beckon insanity, tortured remains,
whispers of agony, blades glistening
Thunder crashes, wounds fester, lighting crashes, is this my fate bested?
memories jaded, instruction of pain, illusions mated
ther bark of the devil's tree cracks in this immortal wind
A bone grasps my shoulders, familiar screams of a foergotten friend
confusions spiral, my...

twisted
pulled in different directions, the paths become unclear
attempting to conform, shadows dance in the midnight air
unanswered questions turn me into a void
in search of sanity, my thoughts to others somehow annoyed
sorrows spoil to unleavened uncertainty, the canvas blank,
no thoughts come to play, the fields green with envy
forgotten angels beckon me, my memories return and taunt me
no reservations, adapt to conclusions amidst this vast abyss
tormented, twisted, what else have i missed?

Inner self
Today i am frozen, Thursday you loved me
you turned away, left me, alone, scarred, again empty
what of the promises, i'm yours, i left him
in my arms, though you were, you still had to text him
leaving with promises, to return, but then poof
all the pain i was afraid of, instantly become truths
deleted my name from the chapter, of FaceBook here and after
it's all torturing me, considering the notion of whats wrote in the plaster
wish i didn't love her, it'd be easier to recover
24 hours loved, and the scars i've uncovered
as you left me here empty, and...

Who are you?
The blade glistens white as i plunder my flesh
The simple need to feel something, may yet bring forth my death
twisting, contorting, i feel the flesh succumb to pierce
Trapped by my own insane trusts, i now forget what brought me in
Remembering now, why did i let this begin?
what fucking void did you crawl out from, and decide to play?
Did you finally see that your own existence is but a blue masquerade waiting to swallow you hole and you turned the
fucking key yourself? My own demons haunt me, and they don't friends to play with. They have a fullness you'll never...

"In The End" dedicated to DeepUndergroundPoetry
I try to not feel the loneliness
even the shadows no longer provide companionship
the scent on the wind of rain no longer comforts me
what used to bring solace now only troubles me
for with every rain drop in minds eye, your still, I see
Fraudulent, i was naieve into thinking i could be alone
walking through mazes of lament and sorcery, forever on my own?
the walls moan out their observance of insufferable condemnity
even the brightness of the orchid in bloom does not yet open me
spiraling down this wormhole of solitude, in search of a distant friend

Entangled
I thought you would be different
I thought I could trust you
Used and abusedd you left me to the maggots to plunder my flesh into a nothingface shell of a man trapped in this mortal coil
i was fooled to thinking you were real
two sides of you were unveiled as two sides of your weapon plunged into my heart
how could i be so ignorrant
you miserable little fuck, how can you live with yourself?
you wear me out and force me to want to projectile vomit of emotion all of your fucking fractured sense of humility as a gag for one breath of hope that i might one day escape...

"Reflections"
the skies are grey, and in the distance i hear a rumble of thunder
signs of an approaching climax of a storm
only equivalent and equalled by my own unraveling desires to taste the exquisite sweetness of your perfume as my lips graze the nape of your neck
i feel a sense of tremor in my veins and slowly i sense the being of the reality of being a man praise the presence of you beneath my weathered and torn shorts i wore for this day on the beach
the wind softly blows through your hair and i forget at all the days before this one
your hand in mine, i pull you closer and am...

From then to now
forever watching, seeing but unknowing
tearing at my insides, the tension growing
skies have blackened, confused, i wonder aimlessly
i smell the rotten remains of death
what is this truth i am unseeing?
time passes, the sands, in open cuts, drips grain by grain,
to a desert of disgust
Admit though not, my fears become stronger
Unslept, unkept, this path becomes longer
to turn back now, to take her with me
into my abyss, she cannot, go alone alone i must, leave me
My thoughts embrace her, even now i taste her
eyes opened, i fear now, i watch, i...
