The Lingering Taste
Our love affair did not end
with the clapping of thunder,
but with a soft whimper
of acceptance.
You remained and softened
inside of me
as if surrendering to what
would never be again.
As you pulled out,
I caught a fleeting glimpse of your
skilled and accomplished shaft,
remembering how I
pressed you to my face.
The kisses I planted there
now bloom bittersweet upon my tongue—
a final, lingering taste of us.
with the clapping of thunder,
but with a soft whimper
of acceptance.
You remained and softened
inside of me
as if surrendering to what
would never be again.
As you pulled out,
I caught a fleeting glimpse of your
skilled and accomplished shaft,
remembering how I
pressed you to my face.
The kisses I planted there
now bloom bittersweet upon my tongue—
a final, lingering taste of us.

She Didn't Want To Go Home
She was the woman with no name
She came in when they were leaving their offices to go home for the day
Some of the staff tried to be polite and say hello in passing
She never said a word back
She would look at the floor and nod slightly
She was there to clean, that's all
She knew the truth
The truth was that none of these people would give her the time of day if she was outside the building
None of these people would ever be caught dead in her neighborhood
They all made more money in one day then she did in a week
She liked it best...

Figure It Out
I hope one day you finally discover your worth and stop fucking with these losers.
Your dating life is like watching the worlds longest death by a thousand cuts suicide note play itself out in live action and it's the saddest goddamn play I've ever seen.
Once you figure out who the fuck you are, you'll find out who I wrote this for.

THE OLD CHICKEN COUP
There she stood with tears rolling down her face and cheeks
Looking downward – such innocence – mild and meek
Her first trip to the slaughter house was no joke
Proved to be a one-sick hoax!
Slowly but surely – she told us the story
Leaving out NOT the gory!
“I was asked by dad
To join him fast
To pick out a chicken
“O Good Rid dens!
At last – no fret
I’m picking out my very first pet!"
Is what I thought
When my breath I caught!"
So, with joy in my heart,
And exuberantly joyful at the...

Life is unfair, yet a gift.
Life is unfair yet a gift:-
Some die of thirst whilst others drown to death, a person in prison feels free whilst someone in a land of flower beds seeks freedom.
The ones on top say but they aren't really humble,
The eyes of children are filled with tears as they see their dreams crumble.
Oh! I see. Oh! I see,that life is unfair yet a gift.
Oh! I see. Oh! I see, some die of hunger whilst others are sound asleep.
Sometimes I think to stair at the abyss hoping it will stair back,
But when I do...
I am the one who stairs back .
Oh i see ... Oh...

Don't take knowone for granted
It's true what the elders say that we should never take nothing for granted, as this is life in real life time. For sure do you know for sure that tomorrow, isn't a promise 🤨 for it's a blessing in the form of a gift, to have and behold of a precious kind of life, as well as a beautiful blessing sometimes as a disguise. For sure it's never good to be taken for granted, just like love and happiness of a kindness of a beautiful heart. ❤️ But yet there are those who are creatures of habits, that just don't want to do right for they prefer to do wrong, 😔 to someone...

Please Disappear
Wake up, I want your lies
Don't die, it won't be nice
Is that what I've been waiting for?
Now I saw your face
You awoke!
You didn't die, it isn't so wonderful after all
Is that what I've been waiting for?
No.
Please disappear forever
Don't die, it won't be nice
Is that what I've been waiting for?
Now I saw your face
You awoke!
You didn't die, it isn't so wonderful after all
Is that what I've been waiting for?
No.
Please disappear forever

Winter comfort
I used to speak, to share my pain,
But every word was met with rain—
Not the kind that heals the ground,
Just the kind that pulls me down.
So now I keep my heart locked tight,
No more trust, no more light.
Why spill my soul when all I find
Are empty ears and colder minds?
So here’s my truth, my sad refrain:
I’ll crack a can, let silence reign.
No matter how cold this drink may be,
People are colder—that’s truth to me.
At least the chill that numbs my hand
Won’t judge or leave me where...

When it's not love no more
Through this life we all will go through somethings, that are necessary for you to understand, that love is a two way street of give and take. For you have to learn how to navigate, through the process of the nonsense of the hurt and pain. That surely will come with confusion and displacement of what, love really is to the deepness of the truth of the heart. ❤️ For sure what you would you rather have in your own life, for wouldn't you want a relationship with a positive, commitment and real consistency to be able to share your life with for better or worse. As it is true that...

See You In the Next Life
There was a time when I was
insouciant
the amount of fucks I gave
were counted in negative numbers
and I could internally quote my favourite comedian
“So what if you’re offended, nothing happens,
it’s not like you’re going to say
damn I was offended, I was hurt
and then I woke up with cancer”
and I’m sure there’s onlookers with a sense of
Schadenfraude at my inability
to swagger around with the big dick energy I took
for granted, thinking that because I could write
in a way that hits
I was bulletproof
because...

In the city of sorrows
In the city of sorrows
Is where we see so much
Racism
Against
Men and women
In the city of sorrows
There are so much injustice
Against people
The black people are the
Blue color worker
And they earn less money than
The white people
Is where we see so much
Racism
Against
Men and women
In the city of sorrows
There are so much injustice
Against people
The black people are the
Blue color worker
And they earn less money than
The white people

a saw blade to the guts
The first time I
kissed your bleeding
knuckles,
was because you punched
a steel wall
when I called you
a liar
and I apologized
and huddled
against your
side
desperate
to feel our
languid heat
against my cheek
and we sat
here.
right the fuck here.
in the dark
sobbing
for things
we couldn't describe
and lives
we shouldn't steal
but we did
we stole those lives
stole the fuck out of them,
