Some mornings
When you are over eighty, the medics lose interest
in your health, I used to see the heart specialist every six months
and check diabetes every three months
now they have stopped seeing me.
It is like they think, what the heck he is old enough anyway.
Not that I care sitting all day indoors looking out
of the window seeing life lived as a spectator.
The phone doesn´t ring anymore and the few friends I had
are dead or in the bosom of AA, their life has been reduced
going to meeting keeping their morale up.

Every time I visit you
I must pass by death
For I can have no fear
When I present myself
If we are to live
FEROCIOUSLY
I must pass by death
For I can have no fear
When I present myself
If we are to live
FEROCIOUSLY

BITTERSWEET EMOTIONS
Why is it that the heart wants what it wants yet constantly Denie you the chance, to feel the love back in return from someone that you thought was yours to keep and behold. Yet that same love ends bittersweet even before it had the opportunity to grow, leaving you feeling abandon and alone with the confusion of doulting oneself. Why does it hurt so much within the depth of your heart and soul as you, find yourself dreaming of them knowing that they will never be yours forever, as it was only a prophetic vision once dreamed of in your magical place of subconsciousness. Why do we ignore the...

Kill me with your love
Show me your creation,
Written down in black ink.
Let me see your darkest thoughts;
I need a place to sink.
I want a place to disappear;
There really is no escape.
If I cannot have someone to love,
Then I will no longer fight my fate.
Love is out there somewhere to find.
All I have to do is look with open eyes,
But I am blind to anyone who could be nice,
Because of the tears I have cried, so many times.
So cut me with your truthfulness,
I want this pain to hurt.
I am no longer playing...
Written down in black ink.
Let me see your darkest thoughts;
I need a place to sink.
I want a place to disappear;
There really is no escape.
If I cannot have someone to love,
Then I will no longer fight my fate.
Love is out there somewhere to find.
All I have to do is look with open eyes,
But I am blind to anyone who could be nice,
Because of the tears I have cried, so many times.
So cut me with your truthfulness,
I want this pain to hurt.
I am no longer playing...

Safe
How little we know
The struggles of others. Rest
My courageous love
The struggles of others. Rest
My courageous love

Forever Winter
No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear” - C.S. Lewis
Let’s keep our rooms cold
Inside this house of old
I don’t want to clean up
Let the candles do the work
And my journal take the hurt instead
Let’s keep the front door locked
Nobody knock
There’s nothing left inside
But four walls of rotting wood
Unswept floors and tangled curtains
Dirty dishes
And a scent buried in perfume
Autumn foliage takes hold
Outside this house of mold
This skull of mine aching
From the stench that’s...
Let’s keep our rooms cold
Inside this house of old
I don’t want to clean up
Let the candles do the work
And my journal take the hurt instead
Let’s keep the front door locked
Nobody knock
There’s nothing left inside
But four walls of rotting wood
Unswept floors and tangled curtains
Dirty dishes
And a scent buried in perfume
Autumn foliage takes hold
Outside this house of mold
This skull of mine aching
From the stench that’s...

Beneath the Surface
Feelings that run deep within.
They escape from under my skin.
Flooding out the laceration instead.
The blood runs red.
It drips off of my knee.
I feel like it's marking me.
Copious amounts rapidly gush.
My body senses the rush.
The wound won't mend.
My pain will not end.
Agony in my screams.
Nothing is what it seems.
Medicine isn't giving me repose.
Don't bother giving me another dose.
They escape from under my skin.
Flooding out the laceration instead.
The blood runs red.
It drips off of my knee.
I feel like it's marking me.
Copious amounts rapidly gush.
My body senses the rush.
The wound won't mend.
My pain will not end.
Agony in my screams.
Nothing is what it seems.
Medicine isn't giving me repose.
Don't bother giving me another dose.

Repression
A memory buried, six feet under
On an unmarked grave; left a riddle
The shovel tossed out, in the ocean
Traces of blood, cleaned with bleach
Mind being protective like a mother
Cut out the once trauma I faced
Replaced the hole, with teddy bears
From time to time, the earth shakes
Innocence cracks, for hell to breathe
Adamant to jump, into inferno
Join my circle, of leafless trees
But mother tweaks my chemicals
With sleep and indulgence
In alcohol and lechery
Blue screens and THC.

psychosis
i have these images that i see in my mind
wish I could be with my own kind
I search for a fix
something to take the edge off
I see symbols sometimes the head of the devil
I see these deformed heads of different people
I see shadows sometimes I see a blue light
I also space out something I can't control
you can be talking to me
then I go to this space for a bit
it's bad that people can notice it now
as I try to fight these monsters
it feels no one really get it
no one wants to hear about it
they don't...

First Farewell
Mommy is resting
where? I don't see her in bed
in heaven, with God
okay, when will she be back?
6 year old robbed of goodbye
where? I don't see her in bed
in heaven, with God
okay, when will she be back?
6 year old robbed of goodbye
