The pain that is love
Love is all around us
Like a serial killer
At least the killer kills you
Love just bleeds you slow
A slow, painful torture
You'll wish for death
Like a serial killer
At least the killer kills you
Love just bleeds you slow
A slow, painful torture
You'll wish for death

nicotine
the death of polluted
phases of the moon
saw you weep
I wore a nicotine halo
stained my pale lips blue
while you watched on fooled
by my midnight sun
I captured your tears
inside a whiskey bottle
got drunk off the pain
peeing in an alley at dawn
it smelled of regret
summer saw an end
of smiles in your skies
where my love light shone
in red neon
disaster was spelled
a strobe light of warning blared
still, you...

I’ll meet you there
my tears burn
your mangled
thumb as you
gently cup
my cheeck this
last time
last
time
our foreheads pressed,
eyes closed
whispering
I’m sorry
like a mantra from
both mouths
my hands are fists
in your shirt
deformed to the
taste of holding on
to something
we let die
a few times back
and I’m sorry
this time
because I want to
fold in your arms
like a...

THINGS WE CAN'T CONTROL
They say that in our lives we as man's and woman's will be face, with many of those obstacles, that we can't really control in our lives. But yet there are somethings we can control, 🤔 one is our own emotions and our own true personal, thoughts of what we want and need in our lives🪬 For let's take a moment to analyze, our own trials and tribulation, that has altered the decisions of what we have done.🤔 For sure there was things and people's that we wish, hadn't come into our lives for it was at that time in our lowest point in our lives 😔 We decided really just...

The Long and Cold
I had to talk a man down away from the edge
The precipice below is dark and dangerous
I had to take some harmful things away
Now the descent feels every bit as lonely
The long and cold night send shivers up the spine
All the unknowns play a daring game of chess
Calculations can’t be made until the day breaks
And even then, the risks seem impossible to take
But love sometimes makes the mind go numb and blind
How far can one tread the path without sound logic?
Will emotions cloud the ability to make clear decisions?
Will they...

Frontlines
I was enlisted in a battle
I should have never fought
This war was created by you
Over silly insecurities and for what
I told you to bring the pain
Bring the tears
Bring the joys
Bring all the fears
You added to this list I must fight
You brought anger into this plight
I was on the front lines
Doing what I needed to do
Throwing every arsenal, I have
Just to get through to you
If I had already lost this war
Why even walk across my line
If there is someone else out there
Willing to...

Tears Tears Dystopia
Rip your tampon out
Blood smear
Ashen swollen face
You left me
Tears tears dystopia

shattered
I'm looking back
things you said
& what you didn't
realizing
how much more powerful
was your silence
I don't give compliments
but you deserve them
did I
really
they felt so beautiful
caressing my fragility
it was the juxtaposition
that threw me
to be so loved
& so abandoned
shoved into a glass box
dark with self-doubt
clouded with anxiety
while you sat
just beyond reach
swirling the ice in your tumbler
watching me
silently

HE NEVER KNEW (INSPIRED BY NIZANA'S POEM)
He never knew
the 'I love you'
I may have said
to him in bed
meant 'Stay with me,
please' inwardly.
All he just heard
was thought, 'I scored!'
He now sleeps round
with others found
who cross his path
and raise his laugh.

Your Hands
your hands i miss
them and kiss
them in my mind
your skin
i can taste it
if i close my eyes
your eyes that
look i was hooked
when i saw you
your lips
God your lips
damn i need them
pressed against
mine even
if it’s just
one last time
to be wrapped in
your warmth your
arms around me
to feel you
inside
me
to
be
yours
down on all fours
slave to your force
safe and secure
small...

Heavy Cross
was it you
or was it the wind
that turned off
the flame of desire?
who's the one that
by distraction
lost you
was lost from you
never came back
to ask for
forgiveness
I don't even ask you
that much
I just want
half-open mouth
waiting
for forgiveness
for none
of my sins
the hand begging
a solution
that cools me down
the stigmata
You are a crown of thorns
and I don't know where
I left my
sacred Heart...

Crumbling to dust
I feel so empty
without you
like a carcass floating
in memories
tossed n flung
to an island desolate
pecked at by vultures of agony
bit by bit...piece by piece
