Unbreak me
You found me lying in the bathroom
Hiding the sharp chilling in my bones
I was fighting for a breakthrough
Wishing I had never met you
Living in the silence
waiting for the sirens
Pull me out
For one moment, I looked up screaming God please take me.
How can love make the world go around when it destroys us
for a time.
Unbreak the broken
Unburn the ashes
Pull me out
Hiding the sharp chilling in my bones
I was fighting for a breakthrough
Wishing I had never met you
Living in the silence
waiting for the sirens
Pull me out
For one moment, I looked up screaming God please take me.
How can love make the world go around when it destroys us
for a time.
Unbreak the broken
Unburn the ashes
Pull me out

I'm not perfect but...
I'm not perfect
I'm far from it
I tell myself I'm sorry
But my mind won't accept it
My sense of humour is warped
I guess my filter is broken
These are my excuses
True words are unspoken
Am I afraid ?
I don't want to get hurt again
Push all you like but
I just can't let you in
I will stay closed
And not walk into the open
Sometimes I'll say
Stuff that I don't even mean
Because you react and it keeps you away from me
I know I'm not a bad person
I wish I would let you see
I know...

Betrothal of paper ceiling hearts (as decorations to appease)
I remember shadowed
catastrophic
warmth,
leisurely peeking,
cutting through
the
tree
line
overhead;
we blink to bed.
fatally wounded,
we hung you
upside down
to dry ,
shriveled in your
memories.

Alone
Alone in darkness
Reflecting
Deeply burdened
Questioning
A social butterfly
Once vibrant
Confident and fun
Yet, she's alone
Ambitious high achiever
Supportive and strong
Secure, she belonged
Yet, she's alone
Self-assured
Fearless
Courageous
Yes, she's alone
Impacted by trauma
Altering her future
Total transformation
She chooses to be alone
The darkness condenses
Exacerbating her sorrow
Desperate for answers
By choice, she's alone

Ain't No Pulitzer
Aint no Pulitzer when I'm gone
a cross made from a yardstick
in the soil as your papa now rest
with earmuffs drowning out sounds
death dances like a silent movie
through eyes of my rigor mortis
perhaps there's an Oscar waiting
in the wings.

Always lie

Of ever Waking to you - A Song Poetry By Martin Youn
Of ever waking to you, I've felt the need.
To call the number, my heart to speak
The wish I want to ever feel your beat
It is the summation to feel to Your warmth of a heat.
I collided with the war unknown
The precepts of it were rough in the showing me
To know the way to go
Through every valley I walked, a life without you was sown.
I've held the peace through which I knew the set of distance to be close in falling.
Ever held the peace of what was growing into stance the life unhappy was blowing ...
To call the number, my heart to speak
The wish I want to ever feel your beat
It is the summation to feel to Your warmth of a heat.
I collided with the war unknown
The precepts of it were rough in the showing me
To know the way to go
Through every valley I walked, a life without you was sown.
I've held the peace through which I knew the set of distance to be close in falling.
Ever held the peace of what was growing into stance the life unhappy was blowing ...

Blue Notes In Death
In mellow twilight sounds
of breath filling the void
and Occam's razor of night
of a weeping Stradivarius
dripping in blood
of Ichabod Crane's ghost
blue notes in death's encore
silently screaming
through the darkness
from the stairs up above
swirling against my neck
from the shadow of my Moriarty
of breath filling the void
and Occam's razor of night
of a weeping Stradivarius
dripping in blood
of Ichabod Crane's ghost
blue notes in death's encore
silently screaming
through the darkness
from the stairs up above
swirling against my neck
from the shadow of my Moriarty

lost
here i am
lost
drowning
in the depths
of
my own fears
alone
and lonely
my soul drifts
my eyes
blind
to any
absolution
waiting
just
out of reach
just like
there is
no one
to hold me
when i slip
lost
drowning
in the depths
of
my own fears
alone
and lonely
my soul drifts
my eyes
blind
to any
absolution
waiting
just
out of reach
just like
there is
no one
to hold me
when i slip

My feelings, my heart, my fault
I did not choose you, it was an accidental love
I thought I had found the one whom I had been praying for.
Today it was an awakening
I found nothing to be true
You only played my feelings,
Pulling everything out of me
My heart, my soul and all that I believed in
You said it was good that we had found out early
But you never meant those misleading words you said, did you?

The Blues
Zaffre, Cyan, Ultramarine
Iris, Bondi, Cerulean
Cobalt, Indigo, Teal
Azure, Egyptian or Maya
It does not matter which name you choose
when I am felling down-I call it The Blues

My Mind's Pantry
Alone in my mind's pantry peeking
listening to the shadow creeping
with a voice that never sleeps
wrapping its hand around the tea
steeping memories of forgotten lore
thinking a teapot evermore
