The E motions Of Time
i often wonder
where i'm going
am i a follower
a lead
or a paradox fool
somehow it doesn't matter
wherever i'll lay my soul
there shall be nothing
between the air and i
i’ve questioned my journey
more than its destination
time and me
a virtuoso orchestrating
my every move
and if only it would
measure my heartbeat
than the irreversible
chronometry of space
why do i choose
the road i know less
the unclear
why...

From the words of a broken heart
I have to say
I haven't seen the light for a day
I do not want to anyway
It won't ever agree with me
But I will try to
Between the nights
I have to agree, even so
The night is tied
Look around you
What do you see?
Stars are falling in and out of time
It's a journey to no man's land
Back to reality, breaker of illusions
I have to say
People are always saying things they shouldn't say
Put it away;
Hide it away;
and don't show it
But judging just wouldn't be...

Darkness to light
Darkness Is all around me
I reach out but nothing's there
I try to look and see
But all I can do is say a prayer
The light shines out from a tiny place
Then it goes and you question why
You desperately try to find that light to chase
And when you can't you tell yourself a lie
What is the purpose of all of this
False hope I always fall for it
Expecting something nice but it becomes a miss
At this point I expect to lose and never get
You try to run away from your fear
But you are stuck you can't move
You...
I reach out but nothing's there
I try to look and see
But all I can do is say a prayer
The light shines out from a tiny place
Then it goes and you question why
You desperately try to find that light to chase
And when you can't you tell yourself a lie
What is the purpose of all of this
False hope I always fall for it
Expecting something nice but it becomes a miss
At this point I expect to lose and never get
You try to run away from your fear
But you are stuck you can't move
You...

Death By Life
Blood in my eyes,
not liquidized
metaphorically speaking of
pain and hatred,
Realistically speaking,
I'm hurting.
Trying to cope with the pressures of life,
Life becomes too much
yet not enough
At the same time, so many hands
Stretched out to me
But none for me,
walls closing in around me
I can't breathe, claustrophobia.
This tightened grip around my neck
its suffocating,
Rhetorically speaking
I'm dying.

Who Am I?
Lately
I do not know
...
I can't seem to figure me out
But at least I've gotten this far
...
Honestly
I do not know where to begin
How does one "find themselves"
I didn't even know I was lost
...
My world has collapsed
And now all the things I knew for sure
Are gone
Leaving me hollow and confused
...
I'm trying my best to be the person I want to be
I have a lot of passion and dreams
And I've gained many scars
...
I feel like I'm spending too much time dreaming about things that will never...
I do not know
...
I can't seem to figure me out
But at least I've gotten this far
...

Edge of the Asphalt Boundary
Beyond the chalked lines,
where four square balls
go to die
I pick dandelions that survive,
at the edge of the asphalt
boundary
Voices, calling all at once
A mixture a potpourri words
put into a bowl that stink
of stale mediocrity
Cracks from the rain make
patterns like the highways
of life
Tracing the familiar road,
has worn down the print
on my finger.
Drops of blood drip,
landing like tiny red stop
signs in my mind.
My boots unlaced at the top,
wipes out...
where four square balls
go to die
I pick dandelions that survive,
at the edge of the asphalt
boundary
Voices, calling all at once
A mixture a potpourri words
put into a bowl that stink
of stale mediocrity
Cracks from the rain make
patterns like the highways
of life
Tracing the familiar road,
has worn down the print
on my finger.
Drops of blood drip,
landing like tiny red stop
signs in my mind.
My boots unlaced at the top,
wipes out...

The One
No doubt about it
You were the best I ever had
Straight loving is what you gave
Unearthing the beauty hidden within
With you I learnt to cherish
The scars on my soul
And repair the fractures on my heart
Putting all my pieces together
Lovingly, One stitch at a time
You held my wings
Till I learnt how to fly again
Your Aura, a delight to be around
A connection so deep
Like Ying and Yang
With you I was finally home
But time was against us
Unspoken words left unsaid
Even if your time has run out...
You were the best I ever had
Straight loving is what you gave
Unearthing the beauty hidden within
With you I learnt to cherish
The scars on my soul
And repair the fractures on my heart
Putting all my pieces together
Lovingly, One stitch at a time
You held my wings
Till I learnt how to fly again
Your Aura, a delight to be around
A connection so deep
Like Ying and Yang
With you I was finally home
But time was against us
Unspoken words left unsaid
Even if your time has run out...

Lost
I just wanted to ease the pain,
but I became numb.
Same old mistakes,
I'm feeling so dumb.
The pressure is building much like a bomb...
Everyone evacuate before I detonate!
Like a fool, I'm on a road I've traveled before.
Leading to that same old door.
I'm weary.
Don't want to travel anymore.
But I'm lost...God I'm lost!
I just wanna' come home,
To the peace and safety that I've known.
I can't walk anymore.
I can't cry anymore.
And I don't wanna' die anymore,
But I don't know how to live.
but I became numb.
Same old mistakes,
I'm feeling so dumb.
The pressure is building much like a bomb...
Everyone evacuate before I detonate!
Like a fool, I'm on a road I've traveled before.
Leading to that same old door.
I'm weary.
Don't want to travel anymore.
But I'm lost...God I'm lost!
I just wanna' come home,
To the peace and safety that I've known.
I can't walk anymore.
I can't cry anymore.
And I don't wanna' die anymore,
But I don't know how to live.

My Demons
Twisting and turning words in my head
Tightening their clutches pulling me down
Scrambling my mind into disarray
Giving life to the cruelty I cannot ignore
Their power regaining strength
Draining my worth til there is nothing left
An empty shell of self loathing
Second guessing all that I do
Believing I deserve the hurt
So foolish to think I was good enough
Walls come back up shutting myself off
Their whispering cackles ring in my ears
A quiet little misfit left begging, pleading
'Please just...
Tightening their clutches pulling me down
Scrambling my mind into disarray
Giving life to the cruelty I cannot ignore
Their power regaining strength
Draining my worth til there is nothing left
An empty shell of self loathing
Second guessing all that I do
Believing I deserve the hurt
So foolish to think I was good enough
Walls come back up shutting myself off
Their whispering cackles ring in my ears
A quiet little misfit left begging, pleading
'Please just...

Feelings Matter
If my feelings are just that
nothing more than illusion’s cast
please explain reality
substance based on other’s creeds
the logic there is surely based
on foundations much the same
except the glamour has set
believing this surety is the best
dissuasion becomes the coin
worth nothing if truth be told
spent to buy assurance nonetheless
consider laughter at this jest
if lives were not at risk
damned while pundits persist
to insist that feelings matter not
when they are all I’ve really got....
