Pendulum
I can feel the weight of gravity,
it's pressure on my skin,
Living lifetimes in
the past and future
between the pendulums swing.
The self affacing tragedies
The comedies of youth,
The drama's in the romance
The romance in the truth.
Powerless to retain her love
it slips into the night,
Fracturing me like victorian glass,
Oblivions dark delight.

Fracturing me like victorian glass,

When I Lost You Forever
I thought that you were my forever home,
But all of that has now turned into charred
Ashes. Darling, what happened to our
Foundation? We would search and roam
This town to find our roots, near and far.
You want to switch directions in this hour
When the sun is barely up, leaving it all
Behind. You let things crumble and fall
So you could finally find your happiness
Somewhere else, even if it was no longer
Me. I lost you to the voice in my head that
Said to stay as the words that will carry us
To the place that made us much stronger...

Shatter
Something has been gnawing away
Inside of me these days
Hopeless, pathetic, agony
Suppressed them so I thought
Caught in this self made tragedy
Born from a single spark
A glimmer of hope for something more
A glimpse of greed is all it needed
The rot of turmoil deeply seeded
Sprouted into flowers of despair
Then came forth the rain of doubt
Quenching the thirst of my gullible heart
As salt water does to a thirsty sailor
My house of cards collapsed; a failure
I always thought myself a feeble man
Though this...

Butterflies don’t get trapped in spider webs, so I must be something different…
this web of my own choosing
I even helped to build
its supporting structure
has upheld me
and those I love
through countless trials
invisible, sticky strings
of friendship
holding tight
preventing flight
I don’t want to tear the fabric
for those who still belong
but they’re too heavy to take with me
I am afraid to fly
alone.
I don’t know where I’m going
and I am afraid to stay
grounded
lest my wings (soul) dry up
drop off
the path...

Casting Shadows
Sometimes it feels like you're still with me...
With us...
Casting a long and imposing shadow
upon the ground before us
the only time in which we can still
be together as a family...
The touch of your warm embrace
lingers like a distant memory
while here with you in this field
of stone and forgotten names
Projecting your silhouette in the
waning light of this hallow place
feels almost crippling on my soul
forever judging, forever watching
I'm left to ponder my own thoughts
am I doing as...

What Comes After
It was never the throws of passion
that we shared together that I miss
most about you, it was what came
after...
It wasn't the long walks in the woods
to get lost together that I remember
most about our weekend getaways,
it was what came after...
It wasn't being able to see your face
after too many hours at work that
got me threw the days, it was what
came after...
It was the look in your eyes as we
stared endlessly at each other for
what seemed like an eternity on end
It was the lack of fear...

Once They Told Me
Once they told me long ago
That I would only be alone
So, I pushed them all away
So that no one would ever know
Once they told me long ago
That I was wrong, and it would show
So, I kept the fear all to myself
Let it tear me to the bone
Once they told me long ago
That I was healthy from head to toe
So, I let disorder eat me away
They know me better, I suppose
Once they told me long ago
That I had everything, high to low
So my sadness had no name
And I choose to suffer so
Once they told me...
That I would only be alone
So, I pushed them all away
So that no one would ever know
Once they told me long ago
That I was wrong, and it would show
So, I kept the fear all to myself
Let it tear me to the bone
Once they told me long ago
That I was healthy from head to toe
So, I let disorder eat me away
They know me better, I suppose
Once they told me long ago
That I had everything, high to low
So my sadness had no name
And I choose to suffer so
Once they told me...

Breathtaking
It is in the mornings
When the mask is left lying somewhere on the floor
Or possibly tangled up in the sheets
That I'm exposed to the reality of my existence
Fuck, the emptiness is breathtaking...

Sandcastles
She is sitting in the sandbox
Talking to the trees
With tales full of solitude
Faint whispers in the breeze
Today she is a princess
Royal and pristine
Looking out the window
She is locked up and unseen
Sees herself above the moat
The castle sits atop a hill
Awaiting princes that do not exist
Where she is kept against her will
She hollers from the tower
Through the forest in her mind
Knowing soon they’ll find her
In a sandbox, the whole time
The delusion lasted briefly
Her fingers dug...

Idealization
I see the world ending
And I keep on pretending
To have plans for the future like you
Maybe it’s the snow
Or the self-hatred I sow
That makes it look like its not worth pulling through
I try to think forward
There’s fog, mist, and mortar
I couldn’t save myself a cent if I tried
I found an old letter
From myself from when I was better
It said, “Sorry I didn’t meet you before I died”
Oh, smoke in trees
Are you a sign or just a...
