"I'm Fine"
Stepping outside to another grey sky
Another day when you ask yourself "Why?"
Running to buses to make it to work
Some days you can't help but feel stuck
Please tell me, what am I living for?
I tell her "I'm Fine"
Though I can't lie
It took me an hour just to get out of bed
I let out a sigh
Please tell me why
My heart feels empty and there's a pain in my head
As hard as I try
It's hard to not cry
I wonder some days if I'd be better off dead
I tell her "I'm Fine"
I tell her "I'm...

Not Meant For Me
Romance has not been meant for me
Since the days that my love was taken from me
When the world decided he couldn’t be with me
And my life crashed around me
Mmmmmm
And to think
I almost believed
I could have found love again with you
Mmmmm
Romance was not meant for me
Mmmm, mmm, mmmm
I wandered in my mind aimlessly
I couldn’t see past my heart’s new vacancy
My fortress was constructed painfully
Becoming debaucherous my new specialty
The...

You.
Dear you,
Hey you. I can't talk to you. I call out your name, but you can't hear me. I miss you so bad that some days I don't think too clearly. You made me who i am today. And for that, ill tilt my hat, cause you taught me more than you will ever know. I just wish you were here with me to help teach and watch our daughter grow.
Life the way it is now, just doesn't seem real to me.. It’s almost like none of this is real, and i made up all these memories. Almost as if you died, or maybe it was me that died.. And if thats the case, hell is where I’ll be, until the day I can touch...

breaking
my heart is bteaking inside I'm trembling
trying to remain brave
the pain I feel is all too real
culted faith, I love too hard
and my soul shatters when you are cold
not fully understanding where it comes from
it's taken personally and I fall into the dark
of never loved
because if our love falters so easily
then it never was
hard feelings, you don't understand
or I don't matter enough to try
loyalty doesn't seem to mean as much as looks
fading attraction, I don't...

Cut Ya Out ..
All these years, I let you hurt me,
We both made decisions, but you blame me.
Maybe grow up and take some blame.
It’s a shame, you just wanted to play,
With fire, now you’re burning today.
We could have had so much more,
Forbidden fruits will cost their name.
Call yourself a friend, but you knew the score,
It takes two to dance; you knew what’s in store.
When the world crumbled, you blamed me,
Maybe take some responsibility.
This time I'm walking away

Dying of thirst in my empty Kool-Aid pitcher
Men have begged
for my love
women too,
and I gave it
to him
as easily
as blowing the
fuzz off
a dandelion
and I asked him to
keep me safe
from the head games
I play with myself
Long story short:
He said no.
So I’m drinking a lot.
He said no.
And I want to know what
the actual fuck is
socially wrong
in having
an
inbox
just
for
one

Eulogy for a Phantom
She emerged from the tide at twilight,
her silhouette carved of obsidian and moonlight.
Hair that could snare the stars hung damp
with brine and mystery, each strand a story
that time itself dared not unravel.
Her eyes were twin storms—
not of fire and rain, but of forgotten galaxies,
swirling with a gravity that unmade me.
In her gaze, a thousand lifetimes echoed,
a siren’s lament calling me home
to shores I’d never known.
Smoke curled from the horizon,
a strange, metallic haze
that whispered of ruin long past. ...

Scared of Her
I'm scared of her,
the girl I became 9 years ago,
scared of the harassment
I caused by texting too much.
I still struggle with this problem from time to time,
I wish the pain would go away,
but it just doesn't.
I don't trust myself
when I'm in a schizophrenic episode.
I become that monster that others fear.
I'm scared of her,
but I can't help but cry for her.
Because she deserved compassion
and she still does.
And sometimes, I'm just terrified
that I cannot give it to her ...

Grief
I almost forgot that you were gone until I woke up and realized that I was now grown.
Your face, smile, all of your features were there.
I would’ve bet my life on that.
And there I was nothin but a child again racing to give you the biggest hug that I could make.
I would have never imagined that I would be sitting here dumbfounded.
Lead not to our own understanding, those are the words those men wrote in the Bible as they went about their day, reciting potential scriptures that they wanted to include in the Bible.
God doesn’t make any mistakes are the words...

Veiled Love
The true depths of selfishness
I had never touched
Until I met you
Never feeling its cuts,
I could never have knew
Just how bladed it was
Victim after victim, a gluttonous lust
Seeming to serve you all that you want
While feeding on your primal thoughts
Stripping the essence from all that you love
Instilling the eternal instinct of one
caught in the grip of sadness
I was dragged into a fiery realm
my tears white with phosphorus
Burning holes through my skin as they fell
These iron chains

Woes of an Relationship
I heard all you said/ I hope you got all that off your chest/
I hope you got all the emotions out and you got nothing left/
I hope you feel good about yourself and you can lay your problems all to rest/
With the smoke and dust at your back I'm sure you have no regrets/
All this time you wanted a punching bag/
so you can strike on it to compensate for the pain that was caused from your
pass relationships, friends, mom or dad/
When you let loose there is no white flag/
I'm sure this is what you meant when you said I'm a man you have never...

Special
I'm crawling my way out of the dark, but the dark is too thick. Thickened by the lies of this world. That if you push things down far enough, that they'll go away. That those who just wanted to be validated have a victim mentality. That this world was for me.
No, it wasn't, and it's not my fault.
But I still try to find fault within myself for being an outcast.
For not being special for anyone.
I still can't understand why Lenny, my friend I recently blocked, had to say I had a victim mentality just for me saying that I wasn't special to Josh and...
