why does the sunshine never reach through
buried under the rubble, trynna find a way true
but every piece feels like a broken record
telling me it's not too late to give in so soon
then there's another voice creeping in
casually mentioning that all the torrent monsoons
craving my imminent fall
reaching for the bottle to give me another it's forgotten call
almost giving in, but pushing for the sake of you
perhaps reading the verse or lost it too
gotta keep on writing
breathing Life to these dead bones...

can destiny shackle you for more
did you fight to be reborn
or
is this another one of those sorry attempts
designed to capture that final scent
poetic flurries caving in
no more insecure failed attempts
no more anxious fantasies to weigh me down
no more anger to unleash on the crowd
no more pressure from my own designs
no more self sabotage for my demise
no more hiding
no more running
-its time i rise

in another time perhaps
but all I have left are broken bones
Broken home
Broken spirit
nevermore to be found
nevermore to be clowned
what more can this sweet poison be
but my self-pitying disease
-another round of messes and broken promises
but all I have left are broken bones
Broken home
Broken spirit
nevermore to be found
nevermore to be clowned
what more can this sweet poison be
but my self-pitying disease
-another round of messes and broken promises

when I chose you all I could really think
how I ended up with such a beautiful lover
magnificence spiraling to connect beyond points of rational
playing tunes unheard in a cold heart thought out of sound
now echoing your name with every beat
clanging up empty halls to entreat
"you are not worthless"
"you are the man that i want"
"i'll always be here for you"
alleviating dusty corners from their prism
challenging and defeating these schisms
what more can I ask from you, the love I found
whose words reach places I...

beyond the beauty that i see
lies a story i do seek,
a story that has traversed farther than words
ever have a notion of finding in this world
one that has been carefully construed along cords
fashioned
constructed
how do i find the exact phrasing
how do i find the correct saying
how do i go about telling you what words fall short of
ravage me deep within and cast me out
out of the normal parameters i have set
outside the realms i have kept
now where do i tell you what i find in you
without...

i wish there was enough words to explain
sketch in a verse to adequately portray
how deep these waters go for you
still, though they may be, it isn't enough for you
how would i explain cataclysmic explosions of self
rushing to capture your stardust i see
painting your eyes no matter how futile
i endeavor to grace page with your song
a song that touches each recess of mind
synapses firing to explain through time
what it means to be with you
how happy it is you make me too
no matter how i quite see it ...

i'm at a loss for words to explain to you
what your eyes exactly do
they've captured me
they've burned me
your image plagues every waking thought
an illness i gladly need
i welcome your bombardments
i echo your name at night
after every moment shared
after every talk we share
what pitiful excuse this may be
i still venture into unknown realms
~as long as you're near
what your eyes exactly do
they've captured me
they've burned me
your image plagues every waking thought
an illness i gladly need
i welcome your bombardments
i echo your name at night
after every moment shared
after every talk we share
what pitiful excuse this may be
i still venture into unknown realms
~as long as you're near

isn't there more that i can write than this paltry set of words
how inadequate it seems to describe what you mean to me
a robustness i haven't been acquainted in a while
not since i lost what i thought couldn't be found
again for me, a sense of being free to wonder
wonder how your eyes could be doing this to me
through cyberspace you feel to me real
ones and zeroes translating emotions that i sorely need
because when i look upon your face on the screen
how your hair curls in what to me seems
a darkness that begs for me to bury ...

do you ever go through periods were you don't understand
and I don't just mean the usual downer
i mean those apocalyptic worrisome designs
riddle me up and down with all their finds
tell me I'm just another sack of shit
carbon-based forms of dead state's guts
it's actually funny thinking it like that
i'm the projectile vomit of stars being born
just to regurgitate all that hydrogenous mass
anatomically fixed to the last
and only then does it have the audacity
to say 'fuck you and goodbye'
but at least...

ode to poetry
did i tell you that i missed you?
that i hadn't forgotten you?
that you're still the one?
i know you are easily mistaken by others
but not to me
i shall push to write
and never look back
remember your muse
that gave me back
that i hadn't forgotten you?
that you're still the one?
i know you are easily mistaken by others
but not to me
i shall push to write
and never look back
remember your muse
that gave me back
