I will not text you back
I’m giving up on you and me
For my own sanity
Afraid we’ve only caused each other pain
Relentless to let our love die in vain
For my own sanity
Afraid we’ve only caused each other pain
Relentless to let our love die in vain

Today, I Speak Me
When I emerged from the cocoon I had been sheltered in the majority of my life, nobody in my life spoke my language. I was multilingual in suffering but I might as well have been mute. I spun like a whirling dervish trying to get people to understand me. Today, I speak me. For those who don’t comprehend, I don’t translate anymore, so good fucking luck. You had your chance.

Dear Indestructible
undo the idea
that we must be fixed
to live the days we deserve,
that breathing requires bandages
as we suck down lungfuls of hope
into our last remaining fuck
healing was never the journey,
existing was
it was listening
to the blunt struck chords
of your nervous system
to hear distorted music
as you shuffled to the sound
it was the dawn silence
as you placed one shuddering foot
in-front of another, out of alignment
longing for the earthly warmth
of a prayer-soaked sun
...
that we must be fixed

denial of becomin
I am not music or art or poetry or hope
I am only what I have always been
tho my hands dance with ivory keys
hauntin silence with whispered confessions
tho I've surrendered nights to Ravel's ghost
as "gaspard de la nuit" possessed my soul
I am not music
tho I’ve painted skies from dreams
while darkness pooled beneath brushstrokes
tho colors bled thru my veins
when bottles stood empty in mornin light
I am not art
tho I've filled journals with fractured thoughts
tho I've written my breaths ...

while darkness pooled beneath brushstrokes
tho colors bled thru my veins
when bottles stood empty in mornin light

महकने दो कियारियों में लगे फूलों को
इस हंगामे मे अंदाज़-ए-गदर इनका अनोखा हैं !
इस हंगामे मे अंदाज़-ए-गदर इनका अनोखा हैं !

Hope
Someday we'll get there,
where all imagined, comes true,
someday we'll get there,
when I end my days of rue,
And on that day,
you'll come to me, giddy with a smile,
then there you'll see, there is no me,
but fragments of my mind.
For I am lost, away in thoughts,
that keep me up all day,
for I am gone, somewhere within the dawn,
that help me wither away.
[But maybe, if all goes well]
someday we'll get there,
where all imagined, comes true,
someday we'll get there,
when I end my days of rue.
where all imagined, comes true,
someday we'll get there,
when I end my days of rue,
And on that day,
you'll come to me, giddy with a smile,
then there you'll see, there is no me,
but fragments of my mind.
For I am lost, away in thoughts,
that keep me up all day,
for I am gone, somewhere within the dawn,
that help me wither away.
[But maybe, if all goes well]
someday we'll get there,
where all imagined, comes true,
someday we'll get there,
when I end my days of rue.

A Fresh Start, Use It! (1st Pantoum)
The holiday’s over. Now is the season of resolve, discovery and change
My heart full of hope…I’m going to make it this time. This time next year I’ll be happy
This sentiment drives for change, recurs every year at this season
A seeding time nurtured by wisdom, and spiritual reason
My heart full of hope…I’m going to make it this time. This time next year I’ll be happy
A seeding time nurtured by wisdom, and spiritual reason
Trepidation creeps in, fearing that I, once again, will lose the plot, and shut down the show
This season can be trite, cliché,...

Let Me Speak
at death
let me then say,
I have lived;
not well, not poorly
but that I endured;
I experienced
each and every
moment forward
from my awakening,
with eyes thrice opened;
let me shout to the world,
that my palms faced up,
accepting all of that
which could not be
accepted from me,
wether love or apathy;
let me sing that I was
become whole, undone
of sad, abandoned roots
that kept me tethered
to shame and guilt;
so, at death
let me then whisper
I set myself free, at...

reign and ruin
wild eyed king of the past
ruler of shot glass realms
struttin down neon streets
arm in arm with beautiful strangers
electric
hungry
unstoppable
I devoured darkness
and it devoured me back
thru tangles of limbs
and sheets stained with lipstick
whiskey seepin into my blood
flesh against flesh against flesh
they wanted the fire in me
the untamed beast
that burned thru rooms
and left ashes of promises behind
they wanted to know
what destruction tasted like
so they pressed their...

To My Greatest Love
You will forever be my greatest love,
and my greatest heartbreak.
I never wanted to leave you—
or that crying boy,
alone.
How I wish I could’ve wiped
every tear from your youth,
if I were your mother,
I would’ve loved you endlessly.
We would’ve wandered through museums,
watched every art show,
and I would’ve read to you every night.
I would’ve taught you that beauty is in the beholder,
but even when we can’t see it,
it’s everywhere,
in everything,
and everyone—...
and my greatest heartbreak.
I never wanted to leave you—
or that crying boy,
alone.
How I wish I could’ve wiped
every tear from your youth,
if I were your mother,
I would’ve loved you endlessly.
We would’ve wandered through museums,
watched every art show,
and I would’ve read to you every night.
I would’ve taught you that beauty is in the beholder,
but even when we can’t see it,
it’s everywhere,
in everything,
and everyone—...

I was told that I'm a criminal
I have a criminal mind
I have a criminal need
I have a criminal dependency
I need others to exist
I need a little help from my friends
I get help all the time from the strangest places
Every suicide
Every plane crash, car accident, overdose etc..
Everything helps me
I'm getting stronger every day
I'm feeling better about myself all the time
Before the medication my doctor put me on,
The person I cared about was myself
Now I see that others matter
Now I see things a lot differently
I think I'm growing inside
I was...

one too many
hands brace against concrete walls
searchin for somethin solid
in a spinnin world
where streetlights melt
in late november rain
liquored up white lies
slide from a tongue gone numb
drippin like poison
as dawn ticks closer
and memory unravels
the bartender’s face
smears like watercolor
thru the bottom of my glass
measurin out oblivion
in four finger pours
while my phone buzzes
with promises I failed to keep
broken bottle self esteem
catchin glints of moonlight
in parkin lot...
searchin for somethin solid
