She Really Lets It Out In The Courtroom
Molly said that
she's glad her dad
is dead because he tore off her clothes and
raped
her while her mom did nothing.

My skin between your fingers
Please, touch me gently.
If it is my destiny to be touched,
I pray for it to be done with kindness.
For my skin is not very strong,
and so it is littered with scars.
If I am to be touched,
I pray it is soft and gentle.
If it is my destiny to be touched,
I pray for it to be done with kindness.
For my skin is not very strong,
and so it is littered with scars.
If I am to be touched,
I pray it is soft and gentle.

How To Disappear Completely
Darkness breathes
Like a living thing
Thrumming rib bones
Exhaling smoke
And I can smell your
Breath for days
It’s getting harder
Just to breath
I am stagnant in stale air
Visiting my hollow stare
Upon a world of pain
Of predictable delusions
I dilute my presence
As my pupils dilate
Into distant dimensions
I can’t look away
I fade
Into the shadows
And d i s a p p e a r . . .

Obstinate Patterns
Beware, his eyes
Dissociated, I can’t resist
Oh… the deep, spellbinding indigo
Those waters run deep, like my own scars that outline abused veins
No tears, only oceans
He summons waves that drag my ankles into another world
His world, familiar
I know the place as if it were my own
What a life to live
In shadowed swells
It’s not that I can’t tread water
There’s treasure in the trenches
I could never dive there again
So I wait on a sandy shore of uncertainty
I could dance with fate elsewhere
But destiny...

Melancholy Rose
She sighed in prose
And wept in silence
This melancholy rose
On the verge of violence
And wept in silence
This melancholy rose
On the verge of violence

The Crawl
it is eerie in here
creepy and alone
i'm cold as bone
dark surrounds
me swallows me
whole, eats me
from the inside
i'm on all fours
on your floor it's
too broke to fix
you're no longer
around left me to
bleed left me to
die at your feet
you watched me
fading and falling
crumble and crawl
into a deep dark hole
creepy and alone
i'm cold as bone
dark surrounds
me swallows me
whole, eats me
from the inside
i'm on all fours
on your floor it's
too broke to fix
you're no longer
around left me to
bleed left me to
die at your feet
you watched me
fading and falling
crumble and crawl
into a deep dark hole

The Bones
you, are a zero
masked as hero
you crushed me
with your ways
the gaslighting
and mind fucks
your narcissistic
abusive behavior
my killer my lover
way too big ego
with fake traits
you ruined me
reduced me to
an empty frame
yet i was able to
escape your play
for i am the bones
you could not break

Just once, and then we can forget.
Do you remember me?
Have you noticed I've gone?
Is my room cold and empty?
Have you checked?
I know I'm not what you dreamed of.
But I break my skin each day,
hoping you'll ask me to stay.
I try to say its mutual,
but when I'm sick and alone,
your number is the only one in my phone.
I'm not what you wanted,
but I hope one day you'll be okay with that.
Be okay with me.
'Cause I've tried to change for you.
I've tasted silence,
with its quiet flavor of obedience.
I am tired now.

The True Root Of Christendom Fraud
God,
they said
that you are
truly able
to protect those who
are good and destroy those
who are evil. If so, then
why did you not save a poor young
woman from getting raped by savage
thugs? That's easy. You're not real at all!
