The Last Sunset
A scream into dark space lasts for seconds
but endures through today and tomorrow.
Time means nothing when a clock’s hands slip
and its numerals fade to black on black.
The universe rushes onward, with increasing haste and worry
till the last sun sets, slipping beyond the cosmic horizon
the last twinkle of starlight - gone.
Empty space has no size; it collapses around me
shrink-wrapped by an unbreakable black surface.
Time, twisted and confused drifts in seconds to days
turning to hours, months ...
but endures through today and tomorrow.
Time means nothing when a clock’s hands slip
and its numerals fade to black on black.
The universe rushes onward, with increasing haste and worry
till the last sun sets, slipping beyond the cosmic horizon
the last twinkle of starlight - gone.
Empty space has no size; it collapses around me
shrink-wrapped by an unbreakable black surface.
Time, twisted and confused drifts in seconds to days
turning to hours, months ...

-ITS six sick thirty-PM.- Aye, I say-
-And somebody is menstruating-
-SOMEBODY IS HATING-
-WHILE MASTURBATING-
on a sick dirty permeating day
of slick meat and blood on display
I'll clean your shit up
and then I'll throw up
in another decadent display

she lied
Her pain reflects on
the waters
that drops
to her eyes
every drop packs
a wish
of suicide

Blue valentine's
Once broken it cannot be repaired
For when it is broken
They claim a piece of your heart
Holding it high
As if they had won
Was this their goal all along?
Or was it simply a mistake?
They way they tore you apart
You might never know
Maybe neither will they
It could be that
Someone has led them astray
Whatever may be the case
The outcome is not solely yours
For they must face it too
Deep behind swollen smiles
Lies sin and incompetence
And no matter how much you cry
Those tears will only...

Short stories #3
Those tears you cry wont absolve you of your sin, they will only leave you feeling broken within
Will a goal heal you?
Will it pull you from that hole?
Will it fix your soul?
My mind often draws to a blank
Loosing thoughts I had wished to bank
Now they are no longer my thoughts
When a thought is lost
Does it go to another?
Is it lost forever?
The thoughts your brain often impose
Force all happiness to depose
Sorrow has won my heart
My heart is now beating
Only each beat is in pain
Each...

Mental Health
Psyche ward, or the prison cell;
amplifying mental hell;
Living in the "free" world,
knowing long term it won't end too well;
coasting; wanting out of this;
medicating, till one slips;
coming to conclusions that for some,
it never was worth it....
get it, got it, gone for good;
suffering was all there was....
"deal with it" rings in one's head,
thinking of the ways one could....

A Profound Introspective Rumination
A Profound Introspective Rumination
So, it's been said repeatedly time and time again;
That there's a time to laugh and there's a time to mourn.
Nd there's time for giving less and there are moments for gaining more.
Supposedly there's a period for peace and there is an age of war.
But there's a problem, it's that the sands in our hourglass are running out expediently, so there isn't much time for anything anymore.
So since that's the case I should probably just say goodbye to this cruel bitter-sweet world, here tonight, now shouldn't I?

Adrift
Both arms wrapped around it
Struggling to fight
I quickly admit
I wont make it through the night
The water in the dark
Is concealing my struggle
The driftwood, with its loosening bark
I continue to snuggle
Minutes turn to hours
As hours turn to years
The situations greatest power
Is provoking my own fears
The water continually unbinding my grip
As I think I've found the shore
But my fingers start to slip
Now I'll drown for sure
My body growing tighter
Here we go again
Waves...
Struggling to fight

I wont make it through the night

As I think I've found the shore

Now I'll drown for sure
My body growing tighter

MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Someone called me a ‘snub’, it hurt.
I tried to argue, I won too
But deep inside I know it’s true
I’ve tried to blend with the world and be sociable
I changed the form in which I made my hair, improved on clothes and shoes
But the more people I met the more disappointed I got
So I’ve learned to make it all about myself and a few good people I could actually rely on.
For a long time my past was my present and I still may not know myself
I see people die mentally every seconds even when looking social
I didn’t cause it but chose to be my own...

Chanelling the Essence.
Channeling the essence of great malignancy,
Dining at the devils diner,
At the apex of the apocalypse,
My heart writhes in condemnation,
I cant lie to you,
For you mean more to me than,
Soiled sheets,
Sweat beads my frame,
Lovers lost lisping,
In a cacophony,
Foolishly fortune dwells on the dimwitted,
Lying in a bed of thorns,
Had dreams of building dynasties,
Like Roman Polanski,
The sound of your name cups the air,
...

A single face, a single mask
A simple façade hides my pain and suffer
Like a disease that slowly kills me
I simply don't want to worry others.
It hurts, someone save me
Smiling and laughing
Happiness and kindness
Such innocent smiles cast upon their face
It hurts, I can't go on
Chain binds and pulls me in the abyss
I'm losing emotions, it's frustrating
Looking at them, looking at their leaving figure
Don't leave me alone.
Such loneliness showered upon me
I can't see anyone
I can't hear anymore
Such emptiness in...

The Words Strewn
The sky was once stained
with vibrant colors, a light
pierced through the surface
illumining the words inside.
Even with closed eyes, I
would discover them as
they fluttered around me
matching the rhythm
of your voice, ending
in a glowing embrace.
Your voice has gone silent,
as every hour dissolves
from present to past.
A crack, that started small,
has grown, tearing me apart.
The sky is now choked off
by rotting clouds.
The colors muted,
