Rusting
I’m much smaller than I used to be,
The moisture in my skin slowly evaporated into the air.
I’ve become shriveled and thin.
Stretched to the limit,
You can see the spaces between the stitches.
I miss being whole,
Feeling solid and thick.
I am splitting edges,
Dry leaves and sticks.
Weaker,
Brittle like a rotting tree.
I hold these stones in my palms,
And wait for them to fall through.
Guiltily letting the wind take me,
My veins come unthreaded.
I miss where I used to be,
What I used to be.
I’ve...

Dry leaves and sticks.
Weaker,
Brittle like a rotting tree.

And wait for them to fall through.

Infinite
I want more than to exist
I want to become the grass I lay in,
To feel the blades pierce my skin and grow into my soul
To see beyond the visible
To feel beyond what is existence
To be infinite
I want to become the grass I lay in,
To feel the blades pierce my skin and grow into my soul
To see beyond the visible
To feel beyond what is existence
To be infinite

Shadows
The dying sun
Lying low over the deep horizon
Set within a dreaming sky
Shining bright
Hidden light
LOife turns to purple
Becoming ever surreal
Ethereal images
Dance
Over shimmering twilight
The night closes in
Amongst the looming shadows
Of my life

Becoming ever surreal

Lost roots
I can't seem to remove this eclipse
This curse hovers over me,
a black storm cloud blocking the view of the stars exploding
and expanding into vast clouds of glittery neon dust...
I can't feel any ghosts, I can't feel the energy of the mystics here before.
Have I become a nihilist? This self-proclaimed know-it-all...
a soul-sick bastard with a stolen dream.
All meaning seems phony...
Have I been the subject of a spiritual lobotomy?
Or were they antidepressants?
Social engineering, maybe energy vampires?
Tangled by cords like...

nailbiter
Fingers aching with blood at the nubs.
I'm sick of playing rattle him up.
It's getting twisted.
poor entitled fuck with his luck cut short.
Sometimes it's good to not look and just jump.
I'm
getting
sick
of
this
Head falls
low
and your knees
don't stop.
Pumping gas
to get your ass in the apartment.
Fingers aching with blood at the nubs.
I'm sick of holding these fragments up.
The screen is smashed.
Get with the program.
You're jumping the...

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.
it's pressure on my skin,

it slips into the night,
Fracturing me like victorian glass,
Oblivions dark delight.

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...
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...
