The Golden Throated Woman
She tries to speak
But gets quiet with mystery
She listens to the sound of shatters
Like it's her perfect symphony
The lust of her future cravings
Puts her in an exotic place
She makes sure she's far away
So, there is not a single trace
Her voice sings a gold mine
It's her only way of knowing
The independence of being cold
With a sweater she'll start sewing
The experienced desire
Of her lost and found
She's feeling the texture
Of being a queen, not crowned
She wants to make her point
Or even one at all...
But gets quiet with mystery
She listens to the sound of shatters
Like it's her perfect symphony
The lust of her future cravings
Puts her in an exotic place
She makes sure she's far away
So, there is not a single trace
Her voice sings a gold mine
It's her only way of knowing
The independence of being cold
With a sweater she'll start sewing
The experienced desire
Of her lost and found
She's feeling the texture
Of being a queen, not crowned
She wants to make her point
Or even one at all...

She
illuminate my mind I've gone cold
my honor code binds me
I wish to go free
I want to ride with the brotherhood of men
they are my soul
a woman let me down
apologies to my own likeness
but I don't trust you
innocence lost and so it goes
my hurt won't leave me and I'm speechless
your deceptive delicate curves
so inviting you didn't tell me you were packing
I ache with the need to protect
to take you in but as I do it
you're at my throat
that look in your eyes tells come in, then run
I...

Bad at love
I’m bad at Love,
So is everyone else,
I enjoy the taste of vodka,
I enjoy the moment of the numbness,
You can’t blame me for trying,
I’m bad at love,
I’m not getting better at it,
There’s so many people out there,
Who wants this?
I’m going to enjoy my life to the fullest,
Till I die.
I’m bad at love,
I’m afraid of your emotions.
If I walk, I walk
Chase me.
I jump when people yell.
I always want to say no,
I get cranky when I’m hungry.
I’m broken hearted,
I’m alone.
I’m going to crazy when I’m...

Ghosts
When you look at me you don't see the tens of thousands of dicks I sucked and fucked right? Or can you?
Would it make it sting worse if my eyes told you that it brought me joy to motivate the endorphins from the base of their balls and out of the tip of their engorged shafts. I did it on purpose!
Would you love me any less? Or would you walk around frightened that your friends know, or your coworkers or your mom? Do you think she can tell. Would you do away with me if I couldn't protect your reputation? If one day some how some way it came up in conversation or someone recognized...

I Write My Own Destiny
The midnight sun is out again
The earth below baths in her soft light
The wind brings echoes of a timeless melody
Ancestral music to my heart.
Each star has a story to tell in their gleaming light
A story is told for you, and a story is told for me
Nothing else needs to be said
But if you must, write your thoughts down.
Words unlock the gates of my reserved soul
If you’re patient enough, you can catch a glimpse
Of who I was, who I am, and who I’ll become
Do you dare to venture further?
I often delve within myself ...
The earth below baths in her soft light
The wind brings echoes of a timeless melody
Ancestral music to my heart.
Each star has a story to tell in their gleaming light
A story is told for you, and a story is told for me
Nothing else needs to be said
But if you must, write your thoughts down.
Words unlock the gates of my reserved soul
If you’re patient enough, you can catch a glimpse
Of who I was, who I am, and who I’ll become
Do you dare to venture further?
I often delve within myself ...

Tunnel Vision
I had to take the time and finally see my tunnel vision, no adding just subtracting cause its causing total collisions .
Letting all things in my peripheral just vanish, getting rid of all the pain, deceit and unnecessary blemish.
No longer letting distractions from the sidelines creep in, from this day forward I'm letting others deal with their own self sins.
For I was made with a purpose one of my own, I no longer have time to deal with so called adults who act like children but supposed to be grown.
Many play the game of take take take, but...

Two
I had a conversation with my weeping heart
It turns out that I was wrong from the very start
I can’t believe what has happened
I can’t accept that this is the end.
Of you and me
Of this fantasy
It didn’t work out but at least let me dream
Of the possibility of me and you.
What ever happened to 1+1=2.
I once thought that my mind was always right
Turns out that all of the facts were merely lies
When the world’s fast asleep, I lie out in the open
As I look up at the sky, I wonder why I’m so broken
How’d it...

Mr.
Stood here again wondering, wondering,
If she could be the one to set me free from misery,
Or drag me deeper, deeper in;
But I am willing to take the risk, because you know she is worth it.
I may be worthless but at least she knows me,
Mr. Misery; Mr. Empathy, just doesn’t understand her yet;
But I am willing to bet she would pass the test,
If I asked her out, I have no doubt,
Fate will intervene and end my dreams.

Don't touch me
Valentine of mine, why are you still crying?
Why are your skies so grey? What is it you need me to say?
We used to be in love; it was meant to be the two of us,
But something happened and we crumbled to dust.
Whatever happened to our love?
You’re the girl with the saddest eyes;
You used to have the most beautiful smile.
I’m sorry I dragged your world into mine;
This is what happens when worlds collide.
Summer’s dead, winter’s every day.
We were young but we began to fade.
I guess time got in our way.
We were...

"I'm Gonna Be."
FLOATING VOID.
Silence,
Darkness,
Solitude.
You find out who you are,when the mask
gives up the ghost,and falls 2 the floor.
"I'm gonna be a great painter--
I'm gonna be a great painter--
I'm gonna be a great painter--
I wanted you all 2 know.!"
A vehicle of expression,even though cold.
This vehicle will,
Never.
Ever.
Ever stall or grow old.

infused creativity,showcased publicly.

lonely fluidity
I wear wet clothes
in memory of the drowning
in memory of the drowned
in memory of myself
I have no name here
only weight
in a weightless space
I am glacier numb
and just as slow
there is no urgency
only a hopeless tired reaching
No one tells you how heavily
despair suffocates
already brittle bones
No one tells you
the lights is painful
when you crave the dark
I wear wet clothes
in the memory of hope
and wait for the weight
to feel like something
...
