Squeaky Hinges
Stumbling out the open door
letting it slam behind me
closed
don't look back
don't just don't
no regrets
none
absolute
murder the thought
before its born
kill the temptation
do not avert your eyes
there is a future
if you let the past die
letting it slam behind me
closed
don't look back
don't just don't
no regrets
none
absolute
murder the thought
before its born
kill the temptation
do not avert your eyes
there is a future
if you let the past die

My Dear Poison
I can't wait to reap my pain, rid my of this curse. One more shot to ease the thoughts, kill them off and watch them rot. Slowly dissipate, my brain will surely rape these horrifying states from prior judgement of the mentality I have sought. Vision blurs the line of what we have done, in time it all comes to an end...the light is sinking in, seeping through my wounds. I let you down again, watch it take me. Won't it take me slow? I want to feel the burn that is creeping down my throat. Choke me out and drown me now.

secrets to hurting others
when we practice to deceive
what hideous things we weave
planting a bad seed
like fucking weeds
eating at our own flesh
trying to get the demons out our heads
feeling weak and broken within
oh how good we are at pretending
my chest hurts as i have no one to run to
anger flows through my bloodstream
and no one wants to help me
why must i be forever alone
this shit makes me want to just go
fuck your heavenly gates
it's done nothing for me
but give me false hope
and empty promises
we...

UNWANTED RELATIONSHIP ADVICE
Brother it sometimes
seems you’re just slaloming
around all the red flags

D.P.
Eyes can see more than just reflection, they take in all of your infection. It's not a disease but more of a life support system I need to breathe. My heart's collapsed, I've been set into my own deadly relapse. Are you the cure or not? I don't care anymore. Understand that I can only hold on for so long before I give up, my friend, you of all people should be able to comprehend that crying myself to sleep is no longer a habit but a lifestyle that consumes me.

Don't Let Her Die
A forced smile upon her porcelain face
Soul, so innocent and laden with fear
From blue heavens; tears fell, misplaced
Such burdening sorrows at a tender age Trembling sobs in the light of day or dark
A forced smile upon her porcelain face
A greif pierced heart from unknown fate Forever isolated in her darkest of thoughts From blue heavens; tears fell, misplaced
From convincing words, she had no escape Bile heavily flooding her throat
A forced smile upon her...
Soul, so innocent and laden with fear
From blue heavens; tears fell, misplaced
Such burdening sorrows at a tender age Trembling sobs in the light of day or dark

these black birds of heaven
Oh mother I've made you
a mad woman.
Oh father them daisies
smell like your flesh.
Oh Chicago I do not
miss you the least.
Oh love pisses on the
carpet of my mind.
Oh death dangles worms
in my dreams of darkness.
Oh mama old age has
gotten hold of your bones.
Oh daddy allow me to
love you more now.
Oh sweet life don't you
see me, trying to drop
my balls upon you,
for so long I've been
mama's good little boy.
Oh Emily Dickinson;
you in your room
and me in mine,
what would our love ...
a mad woman.
Oh father them daisies
smell like your flesh.
Oh Chicago I do not
miss you the least.
Oh love pisses on the
carpet of my mind.
Oh death dangles worms
in my dreams of darkness.
Oh mama old age has
gotten hold of your bones.
Oh daddy allow me to
love you more now.
Oh sweet life don't you
see me, trying to drop
my balls upon you,
for so long I've been
mama's good little boy.
Oh Emily Dickinson;
you in your room
and me in mine,
what would our love ...

Plague my Ballerina
When I was younger
Watching this woman swing
and sway to the rhythm of the better days,
yesterday felt the same
and today just gets in the way...
I swoon the moon
with a swansong of bitter moods,
...always felt It was ending soon
While my lights are flickering and there were always monsters in my room..
But I was different then,
diffident little kid,
Then prison came within
Pseudo-God amongst the cattle
that aimlessly drifted in
Those shallow sins begin
surround the bastard kin

In Your Head
There are no flowery magical words
That can make you feel better
When you’ve walked your own torture
When they ask you how you’re doin’
Or if you’re alright or ok
Let the tears that threaten
Flow over your cheeks
Let them run their natural course
Feel free to be free to be human
Don’t feel like you have to be the strong one
All the time every day of your life
For even the biggest rocks crumble
Over time and continued stress
Living with the thoughts inside of your own head
That can make you feel better
When you’ve walked your own torture
When they ask you how you’re doin’
Or if you’re alright or ok
Let the tears that threaten
Flow over your cheeks
Let them run their natural course
Feel free to be free to be human
Don’t feel like you have to be the strong one
All the time every day of your life
For even the biggest rocks crumble
Over time and continued stress
Living with the thoughts inside of your own head

A Vivid Nightmare, And The 2003 Film Identity
A stranger approaches two people,
A so-called good Samaritan.
He follows them down the narrow corridors of a rectangular hotel,
Conversing, filling them with unease.
Person One says to their friend, ‘I’m scared.
Do you think we should sleep barricaded against the door?’
Person Two says: ‘I don’t know.
That might trap us and there’ll be no way of escape.’
The scene changes; the two people are in a different corridor.
Newspaper articles materialise, each denouncing the Stranger,
...

WROTE A POEM FOR TOMORROW
I learned something of late
(Pity: ignorance is bliss)
That is worth in gold its weight
As pure as love’s first kiss
Wrote a poem for tomorrow
It would do no good today
Sure I’m friends with fear and sorrow
Soon enough they’ll have their say
I’m balanced on a skinny rope
Breathing prayers to creator
Presently I dine with hope
And I don’t want to agitate her
Keep your fingers crossed for me
As I teeter on this line
At its end a dark lady
And an aged bottle of wine
