Belief
Belief was a dream
I lost it all
Last night
Stood by and watched
As it all
Withered and died
I don't even believe myself
I'm not giving in
I'm giving up
Tired of living a lie
Sick of my life
I've had enough
Used to see the light
Now everything
Is cold and grey
Used to feel free
Now I have
Nothing to say
I wished for dreams
That forever turned
Into nightmares
Changing me into
A saddened joke
And pitiful liar
So take my...

get off my sourdough
Narcissistic imbecile nullifying
Novocain needle manipulating masses
with swollen cerebellum of embroidered ego
and terminal testicles awash in tequila
a turd today a rigor tomorrow where limboed
souls congregate awaiting fate in a cold morgue...
"stop messing with my sourdough"

Prisoner
Swallowed by shadows
Crawling blindly
Looking for help
Regrets remain
Clear in my brain
Remember myself
And miss myself
Before enslavement
Buried my testament
Is this how it ends?
Howling humiliation
Strangles hope
Vices victorious
Over a beaten soul
God help me
Yours truly,
Poisoned prisoner
Crawling blindly
Looking for help
Regrets remain
Clear in my brain
Remember myself
And miss myself
Before enslavement
Buried my testament
Is this how it ends?
Howling humiliation
Strangles hope
Vices victorious
Over a beaten soul
God help me
Yours truly,
Poisoned prisoner

Reverence
I built a temple in my chest,
A sacred place for you to rest.
Your name is stitched beneath my ribs,
A whispered vow, a life to give.
I am the altar, you the flame,
Devotion bound in endless pain.
And every breath becomes your prayer,
A hollow hymn left hanging there.
You write your scripture in my veins,
A litany of sweet remains.
Each word you speak, a curse I crave,
A holy wound, a shallow grave.
I begged for light, you gave me night,
And still, I bathe in your delight.
Consume me—
Take my flesh...
A sacred place for you to rest.
Your name is stitched beneath my ribs,
A whispered vow, a life to give.
I am the altar, you the flame,
Devotion bound in endless pain.
And every breath becomes your prayer,
A hollow hymn left hanging there.
You write your scripture in my veins,
A litany of sweet remains.
Each word you speak, a curse I crave,
A holy wound, a shallow grave.
I begged for light, you gave me night,
And still, I bathe in your delight.
Consume me—
Take my flesh...

Obsessed
You give me love and terror
You give me butterflies and butterfly knives
You scare me to my core
I crave you
You make me wring my hands with anxiety
You make me twist and pull my hair
You make me scratch my skin
Fuck, this isn’t fair
Let me swallow you whole
I want to consume your words
You make my brain feral
All my thoughts have blurred
Let me lick your wounds
As you pull mine apart
Let me wrap my fingers around your veins
Let me taste your heart
You give me butterflies and butterfly knives
You scare me to my core
I crave you
You make me wring my hands with anxiety
You make me twist and pull my hair
You make me scratch my skin
Fuck, this isn’t fair
Let me swallow you whole
I want to consume your words
You make my brain feral
All my thoughts have blurred
Let me lick your wounds
As you pull mine apart
Let me wrap my fingers around your veins
Let me taste your heart

this darkness isn't big enough for two
I don't want to be alone with you
in the dark tonight
trading scars and spilling darkness
like cheap cask wine
because alcoholics
don't buy nice things
and our souls don't know
how to aim for top shelf destruction
We are discarded art
half drawn and torn in strange places
I tried to tape you back together
but you wrapped me up
in your co-dependence
and I was too lonely to cut you off
because like every drug
that's picked me up to let me fall
you got inside and gave me something
I never...

Methamphetamine
Needles were never meant to pierce your skin.
My dear, you are not a doll.
Those needles can't sew you back together again.

Smoke-Free For One Year
There's one thing that's perfectly clear.
I have been smoke-free for one year.
The last cigarette that I smoked was in 2023 at 11:45 PM on New Year's Eve.
I stopped smoking and you can quit even though it may be hard to believe.
Please let it be your New Year's resolution to stop smoking.
I was able to kick the habit and so can you and I'm not joking.

Lust
intensity winds its thistling vines
binding limbs against an intricate pleasure
kneading a distraction to soothe the ache
chafing me raw In significant measures

Alone
I wake up alone
Drink my coffee and bourbon
Next to the foggy window
As the cold rain loosens and breaks
Every leaf still left clinging to life
Before they're pushed to the ground
I go out alone
Thinking about the note you left
That day you went away because of
My distance, despair and depression
Saying you needed more to life
Than a series of highs and lows from a
Never ending roller-coaster ride
And the chilling rain continued
I come home alone
Drink my bourbon and coffee
With a little more...

My distance, despair and depression
Saying you needed more to life
Than a series of highs and lows from a
