Suicide Train
Glued to soft and fine grass,
View of the sky like fine glass,
Greenery whispering without doubt,
A plan to suck my soul out.
Days and nights passed,
Sun became cold and harsh,
Grass with hay’s complexion,
Treated He with bitter compassion.
Soft touch of the wind,
Swifting over my skin,
Grass became stickier,
Deceit became comfier.
Boredom knocked on my head,
Welcomed an old friend,
Bantered about the sun,
Fatigued with its sweet burn.
Excitement knocked on my nerves,
Welcomed with joy...

Goodbye
Rest In Peace to Myself.
The final call has been made, and with it, a quiet goodbye to what's been.
The Last salute offered to the memories, the moments, and the pieces of me that once lived here.
It's time to let go, to rest in the stillness that follows the end of a chapter.
The journey has closed, and the silence speaks now, but in that silence, there's peace.
The past is no longer mine to carry. It's time to rest.
Goodbye.

Cabernet Valentine
Cabernet Valentine”
Oh my sweet silent Valentine veins flowing life
Secrets are meant to be kept my obedient wife
Luscious ruby mouth perked open for kissing
Shouldn't be too many acrylics inside missing
Most special day of the year celebrated lovers
Jack-o'-lantern face that is loved by mothers
You were stunning under your sexy lace negligee
If you hadn't screamed maybe you wouldn't be ugly
Silken raven strands stained in cherry hemoglobin
Pink blush cheeks smeared in tears, eyes bulging
...

Every hour
Every hour
I am thinking of you
My father
You blessed me
With a nice weather
It is finally sunny today
Thanks God Father
We had already lots of rainy days
During the summer
So father you cooled the earth already
For us
We must tell you that we love the sunny days
We are having a mild summer
I am thinking of you
My father
You blessed me
With a nice weather
It is finally sunny today
Thanks God Father
We had already lots of rainy days
During the summer
So father you cooled the earth already
For us
We must tell you that we love the sunny days
We are having a mild summer

Lovely Disgusted Ramblings of a Self-Ingested Being
Love sick
Dumb shits
Such as myself
Stand around
Idly by
Full of nothingness
As long as you get yours
As long as royalty succeeds
We worry about nothing
We got nothing
Yet everything
Amen
To you and your motherfucking condescending albatross of a conundrum which is not anything I condone nor does your mom nor does the Pope and so we sit in this mess eating the ember and feeling incomplete just like yesterday we got nothing so now how do you feel cause I feel like nothing is that you feeling like nothing...

A friend for life
A friend for life
You had been for a
Long time
I am so happy to have
Known you for a lifetime
Also we both have
Some respect for each other
Also thanks god we are
Born Christians
And the day we die I hope
We will die as Christians
Yes we are fanatic religious people
And I don’t care about what the rest of
The world thinks about us
We don’t see nothing wrong
About being religious fanatics
We never miss a day praying for
Our father and we let him know
That we love our father
It was our father that...

Familiarity
Familiar
The smell of the home cooked meal
The softness in their voices
The warmth I feel
Close to home
The halls I once roamed
Familiarity
Of the faces
And songs
They made me strong
I’ve felt so wrong
One day in their warm embrace
They make everything okay
Again, the familiarity of it all
The pictures hung on the wall
I feel like I belong
Within the frame,
I smile without shame
Familiar voices fade
When I step back into my world
The unfamiliarity of it all
Where all seems...
The smell of the home cooked meal
The softness in their voices
The warmth I feel
Close to home
The halls I once roamed
Familiarity
Of the faces
And songs
They made me strong
I’ve felt so wrong
One day in their warm embrace
They make everything okay
Again, the familiarity of it all
The pictures hung on the wall
I feel like I belong
Within the frame,
I smile without shame
Familiar voices fade
When I step back into my world
The unfamiliarity of it all
Where all seems...

If we can dream
If we can dream
While we sleep
In our cozy
And warm bed
We always dream
With the people
We lost
27 years ago
Who have died
Of cancer
At that time
We bad done
Their funeral
Service
And we bury
Then at
Their graves
Today they live
There new lives
In heaven
Also they are
Not suffering
Anymore
They are resting
In peace
While we sleep
In our cozy
And warm bed
We always dream
With the people
We lost
27 years ago
Who have died
Of cancer
At that time
We bad done
Their funeral

And we bury
Then at
Their graves
Today they live
There new lives
In heaven
Also they are
Not suffering
Anymore
They are resting

The words to save me
I have never belonged.
Not to a place,
not to a moment,
not to anyone’s arms for long enough
to believe I was ever meant to be held.
I have stood in rooms full of people
and felt like a ghost,
like a name no one would remember,
like a shadow cast too faint
to ever matter.
I have loved before,
or at least, I thought I did.
I have given every piece of myself
to hands that only knew
how to let go.
I have been kissed by lips
that whispered promises
like smoke in the dark,
disappearing the moment...

mercy.
swore to myself
I won't fall for your pleadings
will ignore you when you cry for help
leave you there all alone
just how you did to me
but one glance at you
and my heart yearns to help you
even if it means
breaking myself again allover
you knew it,didn't you?
I cant leave you suffering
to fix pieces of me
so here i am again
going in circles
you hurt me
I fix you
My brain begs for mercy
my heart wishes for your well being
you knew it,didn't you?
I cant leave you suffering
to fix pieces...
I won't fall for your pleadings
will ignore you when you cry for help
leave you there all alone

you knew it,didn't you?
I cant leave you suffering
to fix pieces of me
so here i am again

I fix you
My brain begs for mercy
my heart wishes for your well being
you knew it,didn't you?
I cant leave you suffering

Held On (Too Long)
Held on too long
Held on too long to a love that ran away
Held on too long to a love that I thought would stay
Held on too long to a piece of her heart
Held on too long even after it fell apart
Held on too long to the dream of us
Held on too long even though I know it’s not thus
Held on too long to start living again
Held on too long to start loving again
Held on too long to her but I lost myself
Held on too long kept myself on a shelf
Held on too long look at...
Held on too long to a love that ran away
Held on too long to a love that I thought would stay
Held on too long to a piece of her heart
Held on too long even after it fell apart
Held on too long to the dream of us
Held on too long even though I know it’s not thus
Held on too long to start living again
Held on too long to start loving again
Held on too long to her but I lost myself
Held on too long kept myself on a shelf
Held on too long look at...

Coercive Poetry
The sky is so beautiful.
On fire.
I'm a conflagration.
Away from an Apocalypse.
And the beasts they bray.
In their fields.
With their burdens.
And me.
I'm suavely waving off all responsibility.
Just doing my time.
In this prison.
Waiting for my body.
To catastrophically fail.
On fire.
I'm a conflagration.
Away from an Apocalypse.
And the beasts they bray.
In their fields.
With their burdens.
And me.
I'm suavely waving off all responsibility.

In this prison.
Waiting for my body.
To catastrophically fail.
