Undress
You wore my skin
You swallowed my name
You bled my strength
You fed me despair
if living means to lose
then is dying a win?
the lake of tears is overflowing
the crown of villains is tilting
all that energy in motion
marching to its desolate end
snap the heart strings
rend the tired tendons
slow descent into the abyss
running out of air; of a voice
does dressing up a mistake
make it feel like it isn't one?
I neglected a promise
I was inconsiderate in my care
I abandoned what I...
You swallowed my name
You bled my strength
You fed me despair
if living means to lose
then is dying a win?
the lake of tears is overflowing
the crown of villains is tilting
all that energy in motion
marching to its desolate end
snap the heart strings
rend the tired tendons
slow descent into the abyss
running out of air; of a voice
does dressing up a mistake

Will You Be My Valentine?
Will You Be My Valentine?
Will you be my valentine?
Must have said that a thousand times
I sent several invites to dine
Hundreds of roses fair and fine
Chocolate boxes more than nine
with all kinds of bottles of wine
Waiting for a wink or just a sign
to say that you agree to be mine
No reply nothing just a message online
A shrug with a sleazy punch line:
“You’re a fool for thinking I’m thine
I need someone who makes me shine
A bull. I don’t care if he’s a swine
As long as he has...

He Is Poison
You are the king of poisons my arsenic.
Giving you one night would be
like ingesting cyanide death to the
soul in minutes.
Careful young women, some
men come to steal your hearts
and blacken your soul, nothing more.
They'll drain your beauty and watch
you convulse their Strychnine,
enjoying your dying misery.
Be warned and careful who you
bring to bed. He will give you
spiritual death, draining your
vitality and leaving you hollow.
Before you take his hand...

Goodbye Dad
Goodbye Dad
I am heart broken
That I have lost you
So fast
I can't stop crying
Yes I could never believe
That you had to part so soon
But deep down
I could not stand to see you
Suffer every day
Battling you disease
I tried to make you
Comfortable
Also I had to be strong for you
And it is very hard to do
Yes you lost you battle
And at the same time
It was hard to see you leave
This earth
But at the same time
I must understand that
You are in a better place them me
You are living a new...

You are in a better place them me
You are living a new...

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...

The Depths of Despair
In shadows I dwell, where darkness resides,
A prisoner of thoughts, where hope subsides.
Depression's grip, a heavy chain,
Whispering doubts, fueling the pain.
Self-harm's allure, a tempting release,
A fleeting escape, a moment of peace.
But scars remain, a haunting reminder,
Of battles fought, wounds left behind her.
Suicide's call, a siren's sweet song,
Promising solace, where nothing feels wrong.
But death's embrace, a cold, empty void,
Leaving behind loved ones, forever destroyed.
I yearn for light, a glimmer of hope,
To...
A prisoner of thoughts, where hope subsides.
Depression's grip, a heavy chain,
Whispering doubts, fueling the pain.
Self-harm's allure, a tempting release,
A fleeting escape, a moment of peace.
But scars remain, a haunting reminder,
Of battles fought, wounds left behind her.
Suicide's call, a siren's sweet song,
Promising solace, where nothing feels wrong.
But death's embrace, a cold, empty void,
Leaving behind loved ones, forever destroyed.
I yearn for light, a glimmer of hope,

That Long Cold Walk
It's cold as hell out
And my fingers are aching
And it's still a long walk
Before I get home
When I left this evening
I was feeling happy and positive
And looked forward to having a fine time
Maybe share a bottle of wine with my girl
But that all went to hell
Now I'm newly single
And feeling out of control
And I'm walking home because I let myself get drunk
You all know the old saw
It's not you, it's me
And we're in two different places
I never meant to hurt you
They're all true
And they're all half truths ...
And my fingers are aching
And it's still a long walk
Before I get home
When I left this evening
I was feeling happy and positive
And looked forward to having a fine time
Maybe share a bottle of wine with my girl
But that all went to hell
Now I'm newly single
And feeling out of control
And I'm walking home because I let myself get drunk
You all know the old saw
It's not you, it's me
And we're in two different places
I never meant to hurt you
They're all true
And they're all half truths ...

strange sad light
Two years and more
Secret in the shadows
conversing with my shadow
now this strange sad light
disperses figments from my sight
crashing, confused, What’s right?
broken by this blight
of projected indifference.
Loneliness confounds
when you’re not around.
So sadly bound
to befriend a ghost
Echoes rebound
A friendship found?
No. A mere reflected sorrow
‘twas a faux tomorrow
With imagined hope
Echoes of a lonely love
Mocking from the shadow
Ah, this strange sad light
Reveals a futile fight ...
Secret in the shadows
conversing with my shadow
now this strange sad light
disperses figments from my sight
crashing, confused, What’s right?
broken by this blight
of projected indifference.
Loneliness confounds
when you’re not around.
So sadly bound
to befriend a ghost
Echoes rebound
A friendship found?
No. A mere reflected sorrow
‘twas a faux tomorrow
With imagined hope
Echoes of a lonely love
Mocking from the shadow
Ah, this strange sad light
Reveals a futile fight ...

Ill
My depth is shallow.
My mind, fractured.
And, all these coudla beens.
Hit me too early.
In this afternoon wakefulness.
There's a pit in my gut.
But it dies once the speed kicks in.
I don't feel like eating anything other.
Than cirgarettes ash.
The general sense of being.
Unwell.
Is constant
My mind, fractured.
And, all these coudla beens.
Hit me too early.
In this afternoon wakefulness.
There's a pit in my gut.
But it dies once the speed kicks in.
I don't feel like eating anything other.
Than cirgarettes ash.
The general sense of being.
Unwell.

I’m a loser baby
I liked myself better
when I hated myself more
misery had a melody
self destruction had rhythm
now I’m fumblin thru life
like a virgin at an orgy
good intentions but awkward as fuck
my hands remember Rachmaninoff
but my brain has set fire
to the keys
sendin up smoke signals
to a god that stopped listenin
somewhere between genesis
and my one man show of self sabotage
they called me gifted
before my fingers learned to tremble
virtuoso playin tag with oblivion
composin chaos from memory ...

It is so hard to live without you my father
It is so hard to live without you
My father
I just can't live without you my father
I need you to be a part
Of my everyday life
I could never
live without father
I know that you
Also love me
Without limits
And I am your son
And I will always be your son
You have created me
59 years ago with your
Holy hands
And you have placed me
Here on earth to live
I just love the life you
Gave to me father
I never complained to you
About my life
Thanks to you father
I live a very good life ...

About my life
Thanks to you father
I live a very good life ...
