Unwittingly
Unwittingly...
I plunged forward feet first
as though born a rebel
I've crawled along
A wavering path
Learning early in life
That there was a
Kind of safety in silence
That saying nothing
To anyone anywhere
Meant
I could survive
Letting my actions
Tell the story
Of my troubled life
I plunged forward feet first
as though born a rebel
I've crawled along
A wavering path
Learning early in life
That there was a
Kind of safety in silence
That saying nothing
To anyone anywhere
Meant
I could survive
Letting my actions
Tell the story
Of my troubled life

5:40am watching the sun come up
falling through the universe while i fall for the stars in your eyes. take me to a world that only you can see and we can fall back, back to the sky. count the silhouettes of trees and measure the distance from your hand to mine.
when the sun comes up it casts a shadow between us and we're both so afraid of the dark. the sky grows light around us yet we remain only outlines for a while more. wind your fingers through the clouds and pull, push your thumbs into the stars until you burn up or they burn out.
blink and find the sun crawling back to the sky like a dying man to the...

forced
i miss you
i miss what we never had
i miss wanting you to be mine
i miss hating when you didn't notice me
because i don't any more and somehow that's worse
the ache whenever i saw you was comforting
but now it's faded and i'm scared
i want the familiarity of that craving back
i'm trying to feel for you but i don't know if it's working
whenever i see you, i feel something i can't explain
something tries to spark, but doesn't quite make it
even writing this doesn't feel right
but fuck i just want to feel something

Stick To Your Stipples and Hold Your Grind

anything about what we think).

silences can make one

maybe
even a rescue, of sorts.
Plenty of time to have the time,
if having time is your thing, and you

Doesn't Everyone Do That
My old, sweet refrain
Beckoning in the night
Wide awake with fright
Doesn't everyone do that?
Should I call that old number
Subdivide a little guilt
For the shame of love rebuilt
Doesn't everyone do that?
I watched his eyes do that thing again
Reaching for the wanted need
Should he paint it black or let it bleed?
Doesn't everyone do that?
Beckoning in the night

Reaching for the wanted need
Should he paint it black or let it bleed?

Adrift at Home
Coming home to people so familiar
And yet I have never met these people before
Everything has changed
I am trapped within my own home
A prison of my own creation
My entire life I had to pack
Into 2 suitcases and a bag
A weight y'all made me carry alone
I didn’t bring much
And yet I still left so much behind
I was coming home in the worst possible way
I’m adrift on the sea
Floating from the only shore I see
And I really need you to be
There to drag me back
My room has all changed
Everything is...
And yet I have never met these people before
Everything has changed
I am trapped within my own home
A prison of my own creation
My entire life I had to pack
Into 2 suitcases and a bag
A weight y'all made me carry alone
I didn’t bring much
And yet I still left so much behind
I was coming home in the worst possible way
I’m adrift on the sea
Floating from the only shore I see
And I really need you to be
There to drag me back
My room has all changed
Everything is...

Think
'A penny for your thoughts''
Said he with a smile,
So she gave him a buck
To get lost.

Disillusioned delusional
My eyes have dimmed
To the truth
Spellbound
I float through
My imaginary reality
In the grip
Of a paranoia panic
I see all the eyes
Dissecting
And tearing me apart
Misconstrued actions
Attacking and
Out to destroy me
A disillusioned delusional
Who's being sabotaged
From the inside...
Of his mind
To the truth
Spellbound
I float through
My imaginary reality
In the grip
Of a paranoia panic
I see all the eyes
Dissecting
And tearing me apart
Misconstrued actions
Attacking and
Out to destroy me
A disillusioned delusional
Who's being sabotaged
From the inside...
Of his mind

How a Heart Can Break
When it's meant to be, it'll be."
Those are the lies they fed me
Feeding my mind with fairy tales about nirvana and love
And a God in the Heavens and stars above.
You lied, you lied, you lied ‘til the diamonds in my eyes turned to sand.
You lied, you lied, you lied when the most honest of truths was in my hand.
Where the sky meets the sea,
It was meant to be.
Where the sky meets the sea,
It was meant to be.
This world of tears, but no crying,
Sent her away without even trying.
How can someone's opinion of me exist before...
Those are the lies they fed me
Feeding my mind with fairy tales about nirvana and love
And a God in the Heavens and stars above.
You lied, you lied, you lied ‘til the diamonds in my eyes turned to sand.
You lied, you lied, you lied when the most honest of truths was in my hand.
Where the sky meets the sea,
It was meant to be.
Where the sky meets the sea,
It was meant to be.
This world of tears, but no crying,
Sent her away without even trying.

The USA election
The USA election
Election fraud
Is running through my mind
august newspapers say there might have been
irregularity but not enough to make any difference
of the election outcome
Trump lost.
A little thieving is ok as long as it´s not a big heist.
Some dirt remains, more people voted for Trump,
in this election than in 2016.
It is all for the best a beast fell by the wayside.
And we say good riddance.
We have got Joe Biden now, and he is unsullied.
And he will usher in changes, or perhaps not!

You say that you love him.
You say that you love him: And, yet, you do away with me.
It's our 5th time in this bedroom together.
You must have seen all there is to see.
But, somehow, your eyes are still gazing.
I recognize the cards you're holding and your strategy.
You can't play me.
You say that you love him: And, yet, your nails are sinking deeper into my skin.
My lips are traveling north to your soft thighs.
Your shivers and sighs inspire my drive.
Only a matter of time before my tongue meets
and flips your lace panties over to the side like anthology pages, ...
