Soft Days Gone
In a piss of a mood
bored as hell
In a town so gray and lifeless
A sideways rain
Soft days long gone
Rest relics frail and the spineless
Oh where should we go?
Learned like A, B, C’s,
For schoolboys bent for somewhere
Oh where should we go?
Repeat after me
Beyond the boggers and their swine
Oh where should we go?
Now said just by me
A promise ordained for darkness
The jukebox plays
The Rare Old Times
Heavy heads nod ‘n sway along
Circle the tracks
Of rosary...
bored as hell
In a town so gray and lifeless
A sideways rain

Rest relics frail and the spineless
Oh where should we go?

For schoolboys bent for somewhere
Oh where should we go?
Repeat after me
Beyond the boggers and their swine
Oh where should we go?
Now said just by me
A promise ordained for darkness

The Rare Old Times
Heavy heads nod ‘n sway along

Dark Blank Night
Sadly untextured
Like a canvas awaiting an artist's idea
The moon, taking the night off
Far too clear
The stars untethered
Unattached from their ceiling to kneel
An abyss, not even a drop
There is nothing near
Like a canvas awaiting an artist's idea
The moon, taking the night off
Far too clear
The stars untethered
Unattached from their ceiling to kneel
An abyss, not even a drop
There is nothing near

The Epiphany
There’s beauty in deception and vileness in authenticity.
Your arms around me at night, the empty space next to me in the morning.
It was never your deception that shattered my inhibitions,
Never a fabrication, never a falsity that you uttered.
You were authentic from the beginning, never faltering.
What we had was a season of passion, unbridled and unashamed.
But seasons end, and the autumn of our love turned into the dead of winter.
Your heart was frozen from the beginning, but your embrace warmed my soul.
Your hands all over my...
Your arms around me at night, the empty space next to me in the morning.
It was never your deception that shattered my inhibitions,
Never a fabrication, never a falsity that you uttered.
You were authentic from the beginning, never faltering.
What we had was a season of passion, unbridled and unashamed.
But seasons end, and the autumn of our love turned into the dead of winter.
Your heart was frozen from the beginning, but your embrace warmed my soul.
Your hands all over my...

Snipped Larynx
Miserable with a smile.
This dam is cracked during drought.
Soul is famined.
Already dead but forbidden to escape.
Dante, why have you conceptionalized my existance?
Taproot scorched from this inferno.
The tree that seed me,....
- lost for words.
How could i even describe her to herself?
Tried and tried again.
Struggling with every struggle.
i've observed that mud grows the biggest hearts.
To farm the largest targets for the easiest strikes.
i can see you,... small chameleon.
i have to remind...

You have to know that she didn't kill herself that afternoon.
It was a mild day in January,
we sat outside over sandwiches.
She said she had begun to practice yoga again,
take biking lessons,
rewrite her poetry with lust and pride
and so she didn’t kill herself that afternoon.
She hugged me, went home,
cranked the garage doors open,
scuffed through the garish leaves
of orange and red that brought on grief.
This struggle we are struggling isn’t ours alone.
We did not invent loss.
We are not the first to have vows smashed
with a bitter hammer.
But god, she has been battling...
we sat outside over sandwiches.
She said she had begun to practice yoga again,
take biking lessons,
rewrite her poetry with lust and pride
and so she didn’t kill herself that afternoon.
She hugged me, went home,
cranked the garage doors open,
scuffed through the garish leaves
of orange and red that brought on grief.
This struggle we are struggling isn’t ours alone.
We did not invent loss.
We are not the first to have vows smashed
with a bitter hammer.

Stare at the ceiling
Think
No - Nothing
Roll
Chin to Sheet
Stare at the pillow
Think
Memories
Uncomfortable
Stir crazy
Go outside
Smoke
Bored. Bored. Bored
Eyes tired
Lay down
Stare at the ceiling

HAUNTED BY EMOTIONS
From moments comes experiences that we shall have to learn some lessons about life and our own self in heart and soul and mind, for it is those moments we are given an time to reflect upon our rights and wrongs that we've made along the way, during our journeys travels and walks through this cycle known as life. From moments comes feelings of mix emotions, sometimes created by a broken heart cause by someone that we though understood where does real love comes from as it is within the soul of the heart. But we gave too much of thyself thinking if we give all of thyself they would change, but...

From the words of a broken heart
I have to say
I haven't seen the light for a day
I do not want to anyway
It won't ever agree with me
But I will try to
Between the nights
I have to agree, even so
The night is tied
Look around you
What do you see?
Stars are falling in and out of time
It's a journey to no man's land
Back to reality, breaker of illusions
I have to say
People are always saying things they shouldn't say
Put it away;
Hide it away;
and don't show it
But judging just wouldn't be...

MEMORIES SLAYED revisited
Midnight magick melds and mingles
Evening's tragic hands-held tingles
Moments upon moments forever vow
Over the eternal moments of now
Reveries of destiny
Inside the fading rest of me
Evoking a moment that will always be
Some joke of neverending mystery
Solemn silence screams persistance
Laughter lingering in the distance
All that is still still fails to stay
Yesterday still torn away
Evening flickering like yesterday
Dead like yesterday
Evening's tragic hands-held tingles
Moments upon moments forever vow
Over the eternal moments of now
Reveries of destiny
Inside the fading rest of me
Evoking a moment that will always be
Some joke of neverending mystery
Solemn silence screams persistance
Laughter lingering in the distance
All that is still still fails to stay
Yesterday still torn away
Evening flickering like yesterday
Dead like yesterday

Reflecting at dawn
I don't believe in rainbows
nor in pots of gold,
I don't worship my ego
as I don't worship at all.
I live in all humility,
humbly serving humanity.
Sentenced to exile in foreign land,
surrendering to the power
dominating all mankind.
I seek knowledge to be empowered.
I hail her divinity
as a man devoutly should.
The moralista claims
perfection is in the do's and don'ts,
but such beauty is in a whip,
that breaks the spirit and livelyhoods.
It tares away the will of man
without ways to make...
nor in pots of gold,
I don't worship my ego
as I don't worship at all.
I live in all humility,
humbly serving humanity.
Sentenced to exile in foreign land,
surrendering to the power

I seek knowledge to be empowered.
I hail her divinity
as a man devoutly should.
The moralista claims

that breaks the spirit and livelyhoods.
