repeating patterns
I curl myself inwards
on the bathroom floor
like I can hide from
the brutal honesty
I cast into the atmosphere
and set myself of fire with
I forgot to cash in my love tonight
and the soul debt grows
becomes desperate
and I would rather
weave myself into the walls
than give in to what's owed
My heart aches
and I can't face my own reflection
it's better if you don't look at me
it's better if you let me be a ghost
but you won't let me fade into nothing
and so I'm seen
and can't be...

It's All BS
Faces of narcissism deceit Machiavellianiam
psychopathy unmasking dark chivalry
of grandiose quackery of synonyms
BS, hogwash, or through one's hat
manipulating cheating on a coinflip
living in abstraction on the edge of a dime
with the personality of a hockey puck
connecting dots on a Rorschach

Rambler
Been up for three days with a hole in my head
nobody's coming to help, they say that
these things just
happen
Rattling off reasons
to keep every stitch of the pain in
This couch is waxed in a poisonous slick
the bitch of it is
I won't stop sitting in it
nobody's coming to help, they say that
these things just
happen
Rattling off reasons
to keep every stitch of the pain in
This couch is waxed in a poisonous slick
the bitch of it is
I won't stop sitting in it

The fight
Everything's OK
Everything's all wrong
Just like it's always been
I'm either halfway here or halfway gone
It's good to see you
Hope you can say the same
I know I don't look my best
Got only myself to blame
I know I've had a setback
Falling in so deep
But hopefully it won't take much
To get me back on my feet
I understand you want to help
I've heard that many times before
But that kinda talk
Sends me running for the door
Just let me be
I'll work this out
There's no reason to...

Caught
The devil's in my head again
Making me think his evil thoughts
Telling me there's no use running
Cause i'm already caught
Feel my time is at hand
Could be any day
Destruction seems ingrained
Just looking for an oncoming train
See all the cuts and burns
As scars from the past
Just another sad reminder
This body won't last
Pills and booze
Always on my mind
Wonder if I'm
Gonna lose the game this time
But noone can help me
If I don't want it myself
I've grown comfortable ...
Making me think his evil thoughts
Telling me there's no use running
Cause i'm already caught
Feel my time is at hand
Could be any day
Destruction seems ingrained
Just looking for an oncoming train
See all the cuts and burns
As scars from the past
Just another sad reminder
This body won't last
Pills and booze
Always on my mind
Wonder if I'm
Gonna lose the game this time
But noone can help me
If I don't want it myself
I've grown comfortable ...

I don't have the right words for this one
Your pain is not an artwork
made for gallery walls
or a lone sketchbook
buried and forgotten
at the back of your closet
Your pain is the sound
of a violin string snapping
wood splintering and crashing
lost in the discord
of your unheard screams
I used to love you like an artwork
easily and from afar
because you were easy to love
your flaws easy to forget
when your true face was a mystery
hidden behind a golden smile
I loved you and you splintered me...
made for gallery walls
or a lone sketchbook
buried and forgotten
at the back of your closet
Your pain is the sound
of a violin string snapping
wood splintering and crashing
lost in the discord
of your unheard screams
I used to love you like an artwork
easily and from afar
because you were easy to love
your flaws easy to forget
when your true face was a mystery
hidden behind a golden smile
I loved you and you splintered me...

pay it forward
I don't make a habit
of giving my number
to drunk women
but I couldn't leave her alone
to cry out her soul on the sidewalk
She talked of loss
and hate and loneliness
and while her story
isn't a mirror to
the heart lines on my palms
I held her hand
like we were temporary soulmates
gave her my number
and slipped a twenty
into her jacket pocket
not caring what the money
trickled into
Because I know what it's like
to get lost under late night streetlights
feeling like I'm...

untitled
You tell me you're tired of chasing
this benzo hole
you've found yourself in
yesterday was a bad day
too many pills
and not enough escape
And honestly I didn't see
this conversation coming
didn't think you had the insight
after watching you fuck yourself
up for months now
stealing my prescription drugs
telling me you'll pay me back
you just have to get a doc
to sign off on what you need
(and you can always get
what you need)
And I want to believe
we're on the same level ...

looking for the light
I got CBD oil for anxiety
body relaxed but brain racing
and you couldn't fuck this restlessness
out of my bones
and now I watch you sleeping
peaceful, beautiful, brain switched off
and I wish I was where you are
eyes closed, dreaming of better places
than here
Cause I could go for
round two, three, and more
but we're not young anymore
and you prefer the downers
that pool you on the floor
sink you into the bedsheets
and take you away
from this thing we call life
And I wonder why it...

sparks in the dark
We spilt blood
left ink trails of red
and now she's a part of me
a spark
a holy fucking spark
that I can't extinguish
though I've spent a decade
wondering how the hell
she slipped inside my skin
and cursed me
with this wanting
Because she knows me
when no one else knows me
though she's never
shown me her true dark
existing like a new moon Goddess
hiding from the world
hiding from the sun
hiding from me
And I don't know how
I can be so loved
when I'm nothing...
left ink trails of red
and now she's a part of me
a spark
a holy fucking spark
that I can't extinguish

Because she knows me
