Tomb, Sweet Tomb
They chased their dreams to far away
and left my heart here to decay.
My house a prison I never leave.
I alone shall call to grieve,
sleep, stare, write, repeat,
sleep, stare, write, repeat,
sleep stare, write, repeat.
save me from this monotomy.
Put an end to this mind numbing agony.
Drag me from my self made tomb.
Tear me away from all the gloom.
Save me from my impending doom.
There must be something beyond these walls.
Give me just a single call,
show me there's a world out there,
cause I've...

Wishing
I wished me into your world today
Snowy streets, mochas with whipped cream
And Paulo Coelho's passion
Pillow fights over the wet spot
And " where's my glasses"
Opened cans of diet coke
In the fridge
Hair stopping up the tub drain
Boots by the staircase
I wished me there, I wished so
I could stay forever
Snowy streets, mochas with whipped cream
And Paulo Coelho's passion
Pillow fights over the wet spot
And " where's my glasses"
Opened cans of diet coke
In the fridge
Hair stopping up the tub drain
Boots by the staircase
I wished me there, I wished so
I could stay forever

There Is No Spooning
We lay together as one
Softly spooning convergence
Safe and comforting hugs
My arms clasped around
Giving the occasional squeeze
Hugging so, so close
Lust does not play a part
Sex simply not possible
Nor even desired
Innocence reborn
In a soft warm hug
I whisper honeyed zeros
Whisper I love you
There is no reply
It hurts quite a lot
I so need to hear that
Again but all I get is
Wringing in my ears
And now wringing my hands
I find myself not being
Able to utter another word
I think lonely...

White Noise And Goodbyes
The very things you claimed to like about me are what disconnected the connection leaving us sitting in white noise and red lights.
Silence cursed our lips that night,
You needlessly meddling with everything to avoid noticing me.
Me staring into the void waiting for something, anything.
We were beautiful initially,
The pieces of our lives meshing together,
the vibe,
the music,
our minds and bodies intertwining flowing into each other so effortlessly.
Should have known it was too good to be true.
That I...

Commitment
Want to be loved but afraid to commit
Know that I’ll cheat
Too many options and think with my dick
Cycle repeat
New love, new lust, can’t trust or be trusted
Open to all and accepting of each
Closed off from everything, every door shut
Don’t come near me I’m evil and sweet
Romance and hold hands till boredom will slow dance
No plans to keep but to bust up in sheets
Fall into something much deeper than pussy
But tempted and end up a slave to Lucy
Josh isn’t truth but his heart doesn’t lie
Words that he speaks sure to crumble your...

The Rapsody of the Broken
In my mind
Let me saunter for a while
As i pick up the loose petals
Of every memory that you left behind
All the traces of every fragility
That never failed to afflare
the jaded me.
I cannot hide the pain
that you inflicted me,
Every pain you caused,
Every memories that we have lost
I do not deny that I still love you,
but I will never be able to forgive you.
For the false hopes i cling unto
For the chances that misrepresented you
For the love you broke in two
And for the faith you devalued...
Let me saunter for a while
As i pick up the loose petals
Of every memory that you left behind
All the traces of every fragility
That never failed to afflare
the jaded me.
I cannot hide the pain
that you inflicted me,
Every pain you caused,
Every memories that we have lost
I do not deny that I still love you,
but I will never be able to forgive you.
For the false hopes i cling unto
For the chances that misrepresented you
For the love you broke in two
And for the faith you devalued...

Caught inbetween
I'm caught inbetween whirlpools
Of dreams
There...
I'm juggling words,
you could have said.
Hesitation has worn you,
Torn you away from me.
I take never-ending escalator steps
Towards golden love saxophones.
I long to play them in my fantasies
But can't ever find them along my way
You have stolen some,
but kept them anyways,
As you keep spinning round and round
On empty carosels a blind man runs,
Somewhere in my superstitions.
I try to pronounce your name
in the...

Lay your head sweet trooper
It's ok a voice said
(who's, not mine)
rest your head don't fight this
lay down in slumber
safe within
it's ok you fought hard
you battled long into the night
the beacon you lit burns bright
(i can't fall down, again)
trust then
everything will be fine
the tools you need
have always been and always are
there
(i can't get back up not from this)
let go then
float a while
take what you need
leave the rest to chance
(i am lost, gone, cold alone)
...

Sometimes life is hard
Sometimes we see things that aren't meant to be seen.
Sometimes things aren't always as they seem.
Sometimes we need someone to call our own,
Especially when we're alone.
Sometimes people just can't understand,
Why things get out of hand.
Sometimes life just isn't fair,
Especially when people just don't care.
And sometimes it's hard to say,
Why things have to be this way.
Sometimes it's all you can do to get by,
Especially when dreams continue to die.
Sometimes it's nice to sit in the rain.
Even to just relieve the pain. ...

Shooting Feelings, A Loss of Masculinity, Discipline, Stoicism and Fathers
we churn out another wheel crushed man
that didn't understand why the world
hated that he breathed
blamed him for
patriarchy
rape culture
unconscious bias
his toxic masculinity is crushing all around
and killing himself
punished for looking at a woman
the wrong way
called a creeper for flirting awkwardly
taught that his impulses are wrong
his thoughts are wrong
given no role model to mold
those things into controlled tools
because his mother resents his father
turned the dagger ...

Glass House
Cruelty an expression of malice
Freedom for others not for all, sides are chosen resentment festers.
Look deeper seek more remove the blinders
Connections made not always sought but respect owed.
Remove the blinders and see more than what is in your vantage point
There is not a side there is no intent only helplessness.
All fall in the cavern but a villain is always sought
Glass houses and all that but never look inwards.
Humanity, understanding, love, patience, courage, empty words right.
...

Self Sabatoge
Avoiding my greatness because the world is loving on mediocrity
Preaching that I'm a God, man, the hypocrisy
I mean, I am a God in the flesh but, lately I ain't been acting like one
Depression and fear keeping my reactions stuck on run
Run, run running myself into the ground
Digging in search of my God Given crown
Meanwhile, I can't feel it resting upon my crowww-anium
& how is it that in my own body I feel alien
Trying to keep myself from feelin' insane again
So I say again to the pain within that reigns me in please let me inhale the scent of...
