POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
I Wonder
We are all that ever was and ever will be
Magical creatures of infinity
Star dust from eons ago
Growing...Living...Dying
Our conscious selves may cease to end
but our physical selves
and their impressions upon living,
transform into the ingredients of the future
Is it all just a quick glimpse?
Is humanity but a station for us to stop on this cosmic ride
to see how we've been doing thus far and where we're going?
Just checking up on things... on ourselves
The daily self reflection?
Utilizing ourselves for never ending...

Your Move
It was never easy breezy
It's still a challenge. Not insecure but still
unsure of the various destinations as
manifestations of a human being's great cause.
Go forth and achieve
fail, love and conquer!
Break not under the pressure of the
game. Learn the rules and make your own.
Break them all and write them again.
Try the sweets and meats...savoring the
few savory pieces without indulgence.
Don't make a list of restrictions
as this. Enjoy the one that was
given to you

Remorse Seeps In
Lookey Lookey here
If it isn't the guy
who's too much of a coward to cry.
He who relishes in his stale pain,
claiming not to be ashamed
for all his faults and sins commited,
in a pathetic attempt to sustain.
Fun Fun Fun, it used to be a game
until you realized you were to blame.
As you lay here sinking
deeper into the ruins
of your own twisted mind.
The clock is ticking...
In time, you shall find yourself
finally awake
but it will already be too late.
You've destroyed a once promising...

Responsibility Overload
I’m stressed I try I want I crave I feel
I’m scared I fail I desire I’m scared to feel
I hope I succeed I’m sad I’m ecstatic too
I try I’m stressed I love I hate everything
Does he realize that I would gladly do it?
Do they know that I’m diving in the deep end?
I can’t swim I can float I can learn to
Teach me Don’t Mock Me Teach Me
I learn I yearn I burn with passion
I control I lose control I don’t want it
Take it. No! I’ll keep it I’m trustworthy.
She’s honest She’s forget-ta-ble Who? Who?
She doesn’t care She cares...

Entry of the 16th
I'm eating pizza.
Love me some pizza.
Today I met Gary.
He wasn't so scary
as I thought he would be.
I write in script to veil the power of my words.
It is a facade.
I feel guilt
and regret.
I'm upset
But I'm thankful.
I want to write a book one day.
TWE are we a product of the teachers who instill
their values and biases on us.
My posture is shit.
My rebellion is my demise in disguise as awakening.
I am closer to myself and further away from the person I want to be
and its hard... ...

Reevaluation
What's so good about being in it for the long run?
Love, security, commitment and whatever the X else...I get it. But do we really need this in this point in time?
Why has fate been so cruel yet tender.
Ahhh fate. If only you were a bit more mature, wiser.
If only you had enough mercy.
You allow me to be bound to a beautiful soul in the worst of times
To cherish, love, and give in to my appetite.
Yet dinner is served too soon.
Before I've had a chance to even put my foot in the door, I'm already home.
I must focus and be patient, the...

The Aftermath
I miss your touch,
the one I never had.
I miss your lips,
the ones I never kissed.
I miss the way you loved me
for a time.
Feelings of desire that never
overcame.
Lust and passion that drove me
to the peak of ecstasy.
Just the thought of you
was enough.
I miss the way you forced me
to love you
for a time,
The way you made me succumb
to your fantasies
I miss it all
I miss it all
If you only knew the way I felt
about us
about us
maybe then could you really have
appreciated the...
