Today 6:46pm
...
the earth unveils and ascends to submission
illusions depart; upon starless canvas I unfurl
sinking beneath the wretchedness of air
no meaning, no purpose
only existing ...
in nostalgic daydreams,
I compose myself with chimerical desire
agony filling my veins with bloodless dirt
there is nothing for me here ...
when I long for what a world cannot give;
all I've ached for ... resonating only
by mechanical smile
enslaved
by the throat
overwhelming isolation ...
if only I could feel ...
illusions depart; upon starless canvas I unfurl
sinking beneath the wretchedness of air
no meaning, no purpose
only existing ...
in nostalgic daydreams,
I compose myself with chimerical desire
agony filling my veins with bloodless dirt
there is nothing for me here ...
when I long for what a world cannot give;
all I've ached for ... resonating only
by mechanical smile
enslaved
by the throat
overwhelming isolation ...
if only I could feel ...

Stream
If you laid in the stream it would carry you away,
Even the moon would turn its back on you at the start of a new day,
This was a path I had walked down before,
The only difference this time is how it wages a new war,
This was not a battle to be won,
We are at the end of the road but neither of us are done,
You made this game and you knew how to play,
Each move you made went your way,
I couldn’t forget all that I saw,
So we could say there was nothing left to do but shut that door,
I laid in that stream and I let it carry me away.
Even the moon would turn its back on you at the start of a new day,
This was a path I had walked down before,
The only difference this time is how it wages a new war,
This was not a battle to be won,
We are at the end of the road but neither of us are done,
You made this game and you knew how to play,
Each move you made went your way,
I couldn’t forget all that I saw,
So we could say there was nothing left to do but shut that door,
I laid in that stream and I let it carry me away.

JUST LOST FOR WORDS
From onxy skies to memories that have faded to black leaving behind a trail of broken hearts with broken souls with broken dreams that will forever go unseen, for the persons and the dreams didn't get the chance to be completed with the vision of the dream before there very life of breath was taken out from there chest thanks to humanity.
But from a...

Burnout
There will come a time when
We reach the end of our match.
When the flame goes cold
And passion becomes a distant memory.
You simply cannot expect
Someone's world to turn forever.
We are human too;
Persevering, however fragile.
And o cursed spite ,
The time will be out of joint
And it will take the effort of two
To set it right.
We reach the end of our match.
When the flame goes cold
And passion becomes a distant memory.
You simply cannot expect
Someone's world to turn forever.
We are human too;
Persevering, however fragile.
And o cursed spite ,
The time will be out of joint
And it will take the effort of two
To set it right.

My mind
It's getting worse everyday
This confliction between my afflictions
Social anxiety haunts us
Doubting our every move
How do we set aside our differences
Move past this obstacle
Forever failing at this facade
She said it'd be okay
They can't see us anymore
But I saw them in the mirror
Clinging to the illusion of contentment
Vanity strikes again as he sees her
So we dive deep and drown in the drugs
I am De's mind
Shattered and broken
Filled with stupid aspirations
Clouded by the voices of my siblings
We...

Cold nights
Spent without you
Wondering how you’re doing,
My past flame, my lost Xanadu
I feel sick as a dog
Phlegm xanthic with infection
Wondering how things got this way
And why I feel slanted
Initially we were a team
We walked hand in hand
Then you surpassed me
In favor of seeking a nature more relevant
More Xaverian
You boarded a small xebec
Excited to be free
Excited to see something
Something xenon
Something not dull
Something that wasn’t me
I had no idea I was so toxic
So xylene ...

That Voice
I can hear you
somewhere....
out there lost in the dark
quietly, calling me
calling me deep into the night
that voice …
billowing in the atmosphere
like a whisper....,
just there,
but never close
I can sense your words
as your surging tone controls my mind
and carves a silhouette on the wind.
I shall not be afraid of the unknown ..
as I am comforted with the knowledge
that you will always be there.
I am longing
longing to find you
but I don't know where
...

Plagued
I feel a plague of loneliness
from deep down in my soul.
It seems to want me to forget
so it can take control.
Each one of my memories
that I cherish from inside,
It hunts them down, making them bleed,
until each of them has died.
Inch by inch I feel it creeping
through all the parts of me.
Before long I will start believing
the lies that it's conceived.
Day by day, I feel it growing.
Who I once was begins to blur.
All the while my consciousness knowing
there's little hope for a cure.
I guess I will just...
from deep down in my soul.
It seems to want me to forget
so it can take control.
Each one of my memories
that I cherish from inside,
It hunts them down, making them bleed,
until each of them has died.
Inch by inch I feel it creeping
through all the parts of me.
Before long I will start believing
the lies that it's conceived.
Day by day, I feel it growing.

Nonexistent
Nowhere to come from
Nowhere to go
No way to stop the rivers flow
No way to freeze the moon in its flight
No way to capture the essence of starlight
Somewhere to go and
Somewhere to be
Somewhere to find the lock for the key
Someday we'll reach our goal
Someday we'll all grow old
Somewhere is nowhere and nowhere is here
There's no way to stop and some days a dream
I'm going insane I'm going to scream
Nowhere to go
No way to stop the rivers flow
No way to freeze the moon in its flight
No way to capture the essence of starlight
Somewhere to go and
Somewhere to be
Somewhere to find the lock for the key
Someday we'll reach our goal
Someday we'll all grow old
Somewhere is nowhere and nowhere is here
There's no way to stop and some days a dream
I'm going insane I'm going to scream

Wrong Place, Wrong Time
It was fate when you messaged me that night,
Catching up like we were old friends. We had
Not spoken since high school. Years later and
I would learn we were in the wrong place at
The completely wrong time.You were the light
At the end of the tunnel and made every bad
Day better. It was not until I held onto his hand
I knew you and I had soul ties, but I combatted
The feeling we were not compatible. We had to
Take many wrong turns before we finally made
The right turn, but it was the wrong turn too. No
Matter how many chances and...

Tempted
I can't think
My world is upside down
I've tried meditation
But silence
Is too loud
I can't feel
Other than this pain
I've drank myself to sleep
& cried myself awake
I can't write
Trying to find inspiration
In all the wrong songs
The sad lyrics
are too happy
For my broken heart
I can't think
I can't feel
I can't write
The darkness
Is not letting in the light
I've allured death
It has a grip on me
But she finds pleasure
In the torture
Of...
