Mind Over Matter(Senryu)
A lust filled mind game
Filled with a twisted desire
Fear of no escape
Filled with a twisted desire
Fear of no escape

YOU JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND
It's a shame that you don't nor truly understand that the hurt and pain, that you scared me with not only ripped my heart it tore apart of me. TO never put my trust again in anyone, who came through the doors of my heart and spiritual soul PIMPING... FOR ACTIONS SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS. For you made me feel unwanted and having a low self esteem about WHAT I WANT AND NEED. FOR YOU definitely went as far as destroying, my dreams of being in love with happiness still telling me, I will always be alone. Yet you never once thought that the scares upon me. Would become my badge of my honor, and...

I hate you
Everything I feel is writhing in me
Emotional snakes seeking escape
Frantically I'm looking for the spiritual shovel
Hacking at them until they're finally still
To bury the emotions within my chest
Hating you is easier than feeling this
Emotional snakes seeking escape
Frantically I'm looking for the spiritual shovel
Hacking at them until they're finally still
To bury the emotions within my chest
Hating you is easier than feeling this

soaring wings that find no rest
navigating, deep into a scenery to be unseen amongst the tall forest trees and nature's breeze; nothing but one's own two feet and back pack with one's camping needs;
in theory-seems like the place to be; though isn't in reality.... there's really no where on or off the grid to flee from what is known to be the beast....
spread world wide like a disease-darkside of each living being whom doesn't seek eternal peace.... only in death it seems its pulse does cease....

breezeway door towards closure
the rhythm of moment everchanging; cold numbing temperatures running through veins-effecting the brain; vindicated flows-yearning for tropics-neutral numbers-bearable options
where do "black sheep" go-to vanish in thin air though bearable enough to breathe? where rest as well as "resurrection" is a guaranteed possibility?
where every need, is right within ones' reach....
and ones' journey along towards mortal death will rest assured bring ease?

Hurting for the sake of it
Pain is an indescribable feeling.
Anything can cause it,
from a broken heart to broken limbs.
Some crave it,
desire someone to hurt them,
so they have comfort in knowledge.
Others resist it,
avoiding any cliff that could cause them to stumble,
out of the comfortable world they have crafted.
Yet sometimes the wall itself is the damn,
not holding back the water,
instead keeping them from escaping it.
We often envision ourselves reaching for something.
Whether tied down by our hope or our fear,
we are...

Trapped in Life
My eyes are wide open but I just can't see
"Hold onto yourself" is my mind's only plea
I stare at the mirror and all I can see
Is a hollowed statue of who I used to be
I stretch my arms reaching out to the sky
Waiting for the wings that will show me how to fly
Maybe this time I will make it right
Hopefully soon I'll enjoy the ride
I've been waiting all this years to be set free
This might be the moment that I always wished
I'm scared of waking up to find out it was a dream
I guess my only option is to take the risk
"Hold onto yourself" is my mind's only plea
I stare at the mirror and all I can see
Is a hollowed statue of who I used to be
I stretch my arms reaching out to the sky
Waiting for the wings that will show me how to fly
Maybe this time I will make it right
Hopefully soon I'll enjoy the ride
I've been waiting all this years to be set free
This might be the moment that I always wished
I'm scared of waking up to find out it was a dream
I guess my only option is to take the risk

fish out of water
forever foreign land is where I am; hybrid hardly floating-never had one truly swam; "fish in the water", taught to be anything other than(to simply be)....
wish one never knew this way of "living"....every waking moment questioning/dreading one's existence....
just yearning to peacefully dissappear into the night before this all no longer stands....

I'm Late
I'm late to an early grave
but truth be told I'm late for everything
Kept my mom waiting forever in labor pains,
that was the first time I didn't let anyone push me around
and so began a lifetime of refusing to move to commands
It's not so much the responsibility I mind
but the oppression and tyranny of time
Time - society's arbitrary and dehumanizing demand to tow the line
Time told us of the seasons, when the sow and harvest
The phases of the moon told us of the tides and perhaps when werewolves roamed
Time meant...
but truth be told I'm late for everything

Chained Locusts
Chain loop by bloodied chain loop
We have anchored ourselves together
Bounded by the sticky blood tasting fear
That one day we would wake up alone
They can call us the locusts of lovers
For we wish to devour and consume
The beating hearts in each others chests
We could run but... we would be alone
Is this company worth the pain we feel?
I cannot escape these chains of your love
And you cannot escape the chains of mine
We have anchored ourselves together
Bounded by the sticky blood tasting fear
That one day we would wake up alone
They can call us the locusts of lovers
For we wish to devour and consume
The beating hearts in each others chests
We could run but... we would be alone
Is this company worth the pain we feel?
I cannot escape these chains of your love
And you cannot escape the chains of mine

chains
Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and
slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but
as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!―Patrick Henry
some are metal fetters for your fleet feet
―not a single step for liberty!
night and day, you wallow on defeat street,
yearning for civil mobility.
some are passions that consume your goodwill,
gormandising liberty of wit,
glueing, to your thirst, tastes so untranquil
that, though sate, you know not how to...

Rot
With a rusted metal spike,
A puncture is made
That lets a pressured breath
Escape it's ironed cage.
With a brother spike,
the spine is crumbled.
Each vertebrae screaming,
with a cry, that's muffled.
Another sister spike,
takes a victim of the throat.
Stifling your voice,
spluttering and mute.
A final mother spike
tears into the heart.
Contracting it's muscles,
clawing love apart.
You can hold the spikes
in your body like scars
bottled up, waiting
to let it all start.
