Things I Don't Like
Litter/People who litter
Ignorance and laziness
Politeness to the point its so fake and put on that i think

(I like a fair amount of politeness, but sometimes to really know someone u have to break all the pleasantries down)
Conforming/Judgemental/Pack Mentality
People that say they don't like things when they haven't experienced it
Authority with no clear objective or passion to what they are preaching
When you smile or acknowledge someone and they don't respond
Plans/Expectations
Arrogance,...

Carrots are good for you
im a real go-er
you know
I've had some blows
it shows you know
i have a light within
im a real night owl
the night lets me glow
i like waking up in the
middle of the night
while everyones minds are asleep
it makes me feel at ease
i like that quiet time
it has a sound to me
a colour i see,
it glows real bright
i hear the colour change
warm glow, the light
i can breathe clearly now
my heart is filled with calm
love for all else and its sleepy embrace
thank you world for all your thoughts
kind...

Cardio for the Brain
sometimes i really dont know where i belong
its true, you know
behind my funky hats
bright lipstick
a mask
you should see me before
all of this
a mess
waiting for an answer
to a question i did not ask
i did not ask!
the thoughts have run so fast
so many years
ive lived through this wondering
analysing
my past, your past, my face
the lines
there is nowhere left to run
im scared
afraid
grrrrrrr
cold angry empty
my heart beats
inconsintently
incomplete
unheard
a bird in flight...

Order of Things
i seek beneath
this
brief encounter
im done with you
there is no second breathe
too much banter
who is real
you are
breathe to me
on me
a sick
to me
you are
my words stick
my throat stumbles
like a well formed
force
it finds its strength
the fall is imminent
it happens right after
no where to fall
to drop
stuck in limbo
with no be- lowness stick
the words won't come
stutter
no relative source
i just hate this
you
it...

Scratch me like you do
new additions
the same old story
glorified bullshit
just more grown up
interaction lost
a need to balance
overpowers existence
humanity is hidden
somewhere
i miss you
please come back to me
i am so lost
without you
frustration surrounds me
i wish to help
silence
will fix everything

Ok let me tell you of the
relief
head is under
warm wet silence fills the crevice
my body feels complete
water
warm water
weightless

ok let me tell you of the
grief
the part before the warm relief
unrelentless madness
burns behind my eyes

scratching with their

retelling a story
i can not bend

Disobedient Mind
where does all the time go
moments creep
time travel
back then
forth
my mind travels
be present
the mantra goes
my mind goes
i am there
dreams of forward
create memories
my mind is creeping
there
to here
it meets to a new time
achieve
believe
proceed
i am there
back there
my mind always
leads
back to
a place
disgrace
misplaced
dreams
creep
back to you
my face
the words
all smoke
all mirrors
reflection
deflection
perspective
its all relative...

Unheard Confliction
hear me now, love me later
love me now, hear me later
two tipped worlds
each as significant
debate the state
believe the lie
screaming through whispered lips
a blinding sound makes no sense
ears start ringing
head is spinning
please stop this now
hear me later
love me now, hear me later
two tipped worlds
each as significant
debate the state
believe the lie
screaming through whispered lips

ears start ringing
head is spinning
please stop this now

Shattered Red Drop
A new mindset, re-programmed
my new shell starts to skip around
direction
restrictions
acceptance of my decisions
the days are set before i wake
i rise up in a zombie state
i am changed! hooray hooray
too easy i say, where was the journey
I am aware, People praise
....
......
........
.........Drop.
My mind speeds up
Keep running, keep hiding
dodge the inevitable cliffs edge
Please get these peaks out of my head
"There is an answer, you know the way;
go now, Im always here for this moment"...

A Heart Left Open
Father, i dream your journey
Mother, i feel your longing
Sister, i feel your love
Brother, I feel your pain
strong.
persistent.
unconditional.
inevitable.
Blood only hurts when you see it;
running through my veins
Pumps my guilty heart
Forgiveness is an art best left to the experts
a rock preserved through liquid haze
marshmallows burnt on flames
please hand me the labels
place me in your best frames
Mother, i feel your longing
Sister, i feel your love
Brother, I feel your pain
strong.
persistent.
unconditional.
inevitable.
Blood only hurts when you see it;
running through my veins
Pumps my guilty heart
Forgiveness is an art best left to the experts
a rock preserved through liquid haze
marshmallows burnt on flames
please hand me the labels
place me in your best frames

Mr. Dragon
Mr. Dragon
come to me;
breathe it close
your warm relief;
is needed most
calm the voices;
mute the sound
bring all those moments
right back around
own the shame
address the ghosts
you are the host;
now find a noun
the empty space
does it make a sound?
answer the voice;
theres no one around
you my friend;
can run this town
come to me;
breathe it close
your warm relief;
is needed most
calm the voices;
mute the sound
bring all those moments
right back around
own the shame
address the ghosts
you are the host;
now find a noun
the empty space
does it make a sound?
answer the voice;
theres no one around
you my friend;
can run this town
