Major Depressive
Depression waits
Around the corner
Lurking in the dark unknown
Depression weights
Deep in my soul
Clawing when I’m all alone
When did the moon
Get so heavy
A burden of light and hope
Why does the moon
Cut me so
A crescent razor to cope
It may take years
To face my fears
And overcome this plight
The end isn’t near
But my eyes are clear
And I’ll never give up the fight
Around the corner
Lurking in the dark unknown
Depression weights
Deep in my soul
Clawing when I’m all alone
When did the moon
Get so heavy
A burden of light and hope
Why does the moon
Cut me so
A crescent razor to cope
It may take years
To face my fears
And overcome this plight
The end isn’t near
But my eyes are clear
And I’ll never give up the fight

On Writing
On Writing
Writing, my only purpose
And I know this after all
There’s not much else
That I do well
I try but I just fall
The gift in me is odd you see
I transfer pain through writing
I drown, I die, this pain inside
Lately I’m realizing
I touch your soul
I take control
Of hearts and minds alike
With steady grip
I conquer it
The feelings deep inside
I make you see
What’s within me
I’m torturing you now
You feel the pain
The hurt insane
And me, I take a bow ...

Why I Write
People write because no one listens
But see words on paper how they glisten
The comfort of the pen in my hand
Helps me write to better understand
The chaos I keep locked inside
The darkness in my mind’s eye
Writing is an emotional journey for me
Peering behind veils so that I may see
There is more to me than just my darkness
Bright seething truths I find and confess
But truly past all of that mess
Are the dear connections that we get
From others in the deep underground
Treasured friendships...

There is more to me than just my darkness
Bright seething truths I find and confess

Writing Dirty is Cathartic
It’s like screaming
Dropping f bombs
Going for a long run
Expressing myself
Through dirty poetry
Purges thoughts
I’d rather not keep
Locked inside
DUP is my safe space
To give my internal
And external world
A voice
My healing journey
Of restoration
And renewal
I spent too many
Years hiding
From the me
I am today
Afraid of shame
Cowering to social pressure
I’ve been told
I can do better
Much better
That I’m capable
Of more ...

Crossed the Line
hung up on a colors
because you’re too busy with semantics
can’t see the similarities
it’s the lies that feed the air ways
if all we need is confirmation
well that’s not hard to find
you can find it in the movies
music, and 24/7 on the news
search the internet
find all the pandering you could ever want
and I guess what I want to say
is if you really want to kill your brother
how about thinking about the peace
the wonders you’ll be missing
propaganda has gotten out...

White Bird...
The ash will crumble from a delicate touch.
A fragile memory fading into the whispers of time.
I walk alone in a harsh world.
Yet each step I take echoes with resilience.
My shattered spirit is held together.
By threads of hope, woven from love.
Still my shattered spirit struggles to remain intact.
Every fracture.
I don't know the way.
The road is beginning to disappear.
In the heart of uncertainty, let courage be your compass.
The pain we felt as we let go.
Echoes in the silence, as endings and beginnings intertwined. ...

Memory Lane
It’s taken days
But it really doesn’t matter
I’m addicted
I’d do it all over again
Until my eyeballs fall out of my skull
Until my brain numbs
I read every single one of my favorites
The comments
The responses
Everything
The talent residing there is astounding
Went all the way back to my first RL
And happened to find
The very first poet who commented on my first post
His poem is outstanding
As is he
Over the twenty eight months I’ve been here
He has shared himself ...

You’re Not Going to Learn Anything Here
Twenty eight months ago
That’s what he said to me
Chased me right right out of here
Three weeks after my arrival
New to this world of poetry
I sought advice
Soaked up words of wisdom
From poets of every genre
Took sage words to heart
Wrote furiously
He picked apart my poem mercilessly
Every single line
Then directed me off site
Told me to learn elsewhere
When I asked for advice
DUP is a vanity site
His exact words
My confidence shattered, I left ...

Just in...
Hey Justin, how are you doing?
I hope this reaches through.
Arriving just in time.
I miss you so much.
Remember when we laughed?
Remember all we lost?
Just in case I do.
Hey Justin, please don't go.
There's so much left to do.
I know it's a selfish request, but I don't care.
The many voices cried.
So many hands reached out.
I'm never too far...

Well...
The weight's clinging onto me.
Dragging me further past the point I'd lose myself.
Listen closely for screaming in the night.
Those echoes get swallowed by darkness.
This weight.
Burdens, grudges.
I lose sight of the appeal.
I lost what I thought would make me feel better.
It's not how I pictured it'd be.
You step away from reality.
When is the time right?
When is the time to accept?
Watch the walls close in around you.
Feel the breath escape from your grasp.
All alone, trapped within a bottle.
You refuse...
