Phantom
This ghost that I am, /
invisible and alone, /
an unloved phantom.
invisible and alone, /
an unloved phantom.

Unlovable
No arms to hold me, /
this unlovable man i am, /
drown me in my tears.
this unlovable man i am, /
drown me in my tears.

Subspace
offering her bloom ready
in my palms,
breathing in hesitation
spider lashes
flickering
on every petal
plucked,
slowly waiting
for my mouth
to reach
her blushing
bud.
in my palms,

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

Despise
I despise myself, /
trapped within this wretched brain, /
longing for the dark.
trapped within this wretched brain, /
longing for the dark.

Demons knocking
Demons live inside me
Beneath the surface hiding
Steadily they're rising
Thrashing
Getting lively
Out of hell
They're climbing
On their way
To come and find me
Scared
I'm running blindly
I can hear them
Hungry
Right behind me
Beneath the surface hiding
Steadily they're rising
Thrashing
Getting lively
Out of hell
They're climbing
On their way
To come and find me
Scared
I'm running blindly
I can hear them
Hungry
Right behind me

Prologue
A world breathes beneath us
That we choose not to see
Flooded with darkness
Infested with insanity
The sun sets in a bleeding horizon
Choked and beaten by the full moon rising...
That we choose not to see
Flooded with darkness
Infested with insanity
The sun sets in a bleeding horizon
Choked and beaten by the full moon rising...

two
my mind sheltered in the storm of you
and when it could bear no more anguish
it split in two
and when it could bear no more anguish
it split in two

Death sentence
41 years old married woman
Hit with cancer
Given 2 to 3 years to live
Harsh death sentence.
I can't even begin to think
How a life-loving person
Deals with that..........
Hit with cancer

Weatherhead
I've spent every moment under the crushing weight
Of a moonless night that I cannot escape
Clouds above my home
As cold winds blow
The darkness of midnight
Corrupts my perception
Of a moonless night that I cannot escape
Clouds above my home
As cold winds blow
The darkness of midnight
Corrupts my perception

I Am Anxiety
I keep digging my heel
Aiming to break
More than just gravity
Smoking brazen my thoughts
With sewage sounds
Drowning noise, human noise
Like a sloppy cocktail
Soft, wet, flagrant
Down my throat, ingest: Done.
Aiming to break

Dead of Winter
In
the dead of night
in
the dead of winter
I
see above me
a
dead raven hanging
from
a dead tree.
I
watch dead feathers
fall
from dead bones
like
dead leaves
off
dead branches.
As
night sounds die
a
down blanket conceals
my
snow covered body.
