Lone wolf
Trust is a word
I lost long ago
Call me paranoid
But I see everyone as a foe
I may seem disillusioned
To be so trite
But I've got too many stabs in the back
To take my issues light
All these people walking around
With a smiling blank face
Save your talk for someone else
Your manipulation on me is a waste
Look up suspicious
You'll see my picture in the book
You can't gain my trust
I'm a lone wolf
I lost long ago
Call me paranoid
But I see everyone as a foe
I may seem disillusioned
To be so trite
But I've got too many stabs in the back
To take my issues light
All these people walking around
With a smiling blank face
Save your talk for someone else
Your manipulation on me is a waste
Look up suspicious
You'll see my picture in the book
You can't gain my trust
I'm a lone wolf

Breaking Promises
A stirring, deep and unbidden,
thrilling, and terrifying.
Seduction sketches on the horizon,
looming large over my short life.
He belongs to another yet
our paths draw us
toward forbidden fruits that are sweet,
hanging heavy with consequence.
His image, a persistent whisper,
is tucked into the folds of my mind,
like my grandmother's quilt
carefully stowed to hide the fraying edges.
My apartment is silent,
except for the innocent breaths
of my child, unaware of the storm
growing in her mother's heart....

A Glimpse of Treachery
The city stirred, a beast in morning’s glow,
As dawn’s first light began its golden flow.
On window panes, a labourer named Jay,
Ascended high, where wealth and secrets lay.
His family waited, distant, worlds apart,
Their lives entwined within his beating heart.
His wife, so fair, her image filled his mind,
A gentle warmth, a love of purest kind.
He pushed the thought aside, the ache to hold,
And focused on the task, as he’d been told.
Penthouse windows gleamed, the sun’s embrace,
Revealing shadows in this gilded space.
...

you're just a stain, not a picture
You walk in
get under my skin
come on, manipulate me, boy
My soul still crawls with the memories
of when you tried to take a bite
how did I taste, boy?
was it fucking worth it?
how does shame feel, now, boy?
has it been so long you forgot?
Did you want to break me?
(I think you wanted to break me)
'cause you didn't break me
I've been murdered
by more skilled lovers than you
and your memory is more
of a shit stain
than a tortured work of art
You walk in
get under my skin ...
get under my skin
come on, manipulate me, boy
My soul still crawls with the memories
of when you tried to take a bite
how did I taste, boy?
was it fucking worth it?
how does shame feel, now, boy?
has it been so long you forgot?
Did you want to break me?
(I think you wanted to break me)
'cause you didn't break me
I've been murdered
by more skilled lovers than you
and your memory is more
of a shit stain
than a tortured work of art
You walk in
get under my skin ...

Betrayed
You buried me with your silence
Broken bonds and trampled trust
I took the bait and fell into the trap
Of your luring seductive eyes of lust
Scars scrape across my heart
Blind to your bidding from the start
Now I'm delusional and dead
To a world as empty as my cold bed
Broken bonds and trampled trust
I took the bait and fell into the trap
Of your luring seductive eyes of lust
Scars scrape across my heart
Blind to your bidding from the start
Now I'm delusional and dead
To a world as empty as my cold bed

Trust me, Sweetie. It's Not What It Looks Like.
Alan came home from work.
He saw Jennifer getting humped by Steve.
Then, she saw Alan staring.
He saw Jennifer getting humped by Steve.

In search of inner peace
Through this subject of the course of our lives, when we have to learn to make real life decisions. FOR sure it's gonna be hard, yet it's necessary to understand what it will take to be able to achieve, that what is necessary to have that kind of life. THAT you crave and want and need, to sustain a beautiful quality of life. For sure there will be moments in your life, that you yourself will have to question yourself to realize, that there will be things outside of your own control, as you have to be able to understand the realistically. WHAT you will have to do to correct your own...

DANCING ON YOUR GRAVE
Oh no I’ve been so bad
thought things I can’t take back
But I want what I can’t have
cos I can’t have it
Now I’m drowning in the sea
of my secret jealousy
this never used to be me
but its a habit
Oh it seems you live my dreams
The whole crowd screams tonight
But I’m in town to steal your crown
I see my name in lights
Everything has a price
even in paradise
I see you with my own eyes
abusing power
Oh I know you thought this show
would last another night
but I’m in town to steal your crown
I see...
thought things I can’t take back
But I want what I can’t have
cos I can’t have it
Now I’m drowning in the sea
of my secret jealousy
this never used to be me
but its a habit
Oh it seems you live my dreams
The whole crowd screams tonight
But I’m in town to steal your crown
I see my name in lights
Everything has a price
even in paradise
I see you with my own eyes
abusing power
Oh I know you thought this show
would last another night
but I’m in town to steal your crown
I see...

How will you know
They say that through this passage of life, we will go through somethings in order, to get the full true understanding of how life truly works, whether for you are against you in search of what you want and need. How will you know that the next person, 🤔 that tries to walk into your life and world. YOU have to learn to listen, not to only what they say, but what they came to do, for if they ain't coming in your life with a positive attitude with real communications skills. TO articulate to you and show you there honestly and truth and trust, just stop and look and listen not to your...

I Don't Believe This! On Our Wedding Day?!
On Sunday, Laura was
on her way to church
only to be stopped by
seeing Tommy naked
and humping Julia.
on her way to church

Lizard Minded. Capitalism
It is said
It is only
Moral Capitalism
That can save
Our way of life
That we know
Or we will be
Forever Chained
To the Lizard Minded
Capitalism
We Suffer From
Today
It is only
Moral Capitalism
That can save
Our way of life
That we know
Or we will be
Forever Chained
To the Lizard Minded
Capitalism
We Suffer From
