Slow Burn
Burning holes
In every photo
And sweater that still smells like you
Leaving behind only ashes and the smell of cigarettes on my finger tips
That pick at my cracked lips
As I watch them ignite the final glimpse of you
Ocean eyes reflecting orange flames
Gripping every last page that wrote the years entangled in memories and growth
And always ended between unwashed sheets
That still smelled like her
A feeling so familiar, yet so far away
With arms around you
Skin to skin
But seeming oceans away
Where I was left...

Put Out the Fire
my life with you
hopelessly
embroiled in
affairs of heart
words enflame sorrow
screaming from bell jars
deafened through routine
our survival strategy
denies you me us

Dim
Pull away from me
And don’t stop
Until my tears turn to blood and wash me away
With nothing more to give
And everything to take
Like you wanted
That’s what you wanted, right?
When you held me close for only enough time to suck every breath from my lungs
And break every bone in my body
And use it for your shelter
To build the home we started together
For you to shatter every minute that felt tender
Because I could never be her
The one you painted with mirrors
To be reflections of me
Where only you could be free...
And don’t stop
Until my tears turn to blood and wash me away

And break every bone in my body
And use it for your shelter
To build the home we started together
For you to shatter every minute that felt tender
Because I could never be her
The one you painted with mirrors
To be reflections of me
Where only you could be free...

When They Look You in the Eye
holding onto the dead and buried, fragile dreams he has
shattered promises love your old looks
loving hard, feeling even harder to be loved
battered child of empathy purged by the mind
remember when you knew you weren’t the same?
spending his days in a tomb of shattered mind
when you came home tonight, i knew it all too well
lending your body to the delusory, the withered
then you ask what made you, if you ever were made
notice how the skin on your back burns?
learning the ways of those who’ve come undone...

The Suicidal
The Suicidal have been strong for too long,
You see them at school the ones that are picked on,
Don't you know that words are destructive?
The Suicidal are dying their lives have been deducted,
How they feel they never say or share,
Not like it's your business not like you care,
When I look deep into the eyes of the Suicidal,
I become empathic and only wish they'd smile,
The Suicidal have been abused,
Imagine if that was me or you,
You spreaded rumors you spreaded lies,
Every few minutes one of them dies,
Easy...

No Longer Home
I wish I could forget you like a photo that
Has been torn and lost in the fire, but how
Can one throw away years of friendship
And a deep attraction? When you flat
Out told me that you would never allow
Yourself to hurt me, but you did. Like a ship
Wreck all you can do is watch and hope
For the best all the while you ruined any
Chance for redemption. The memories
Are still there, but the truth is the rope
To hold them together is frayed. As many
Months went by, there were no remedies
To the pain I was feeling or all the...

Abuse at home (Ptsd)
Home is abusive no one listens to what I say,
Lilith comes into my room and her dark melody begins to play,
My mom doesn't care about me what mother would?
I was once a nobody someone who was good,
Abuse at home I can't say anything,
Why won't anyone love me or give me a ring?
The abuse still follows me it has never faded,
I want to see a new world created,
I go down by the river and cry softly,
What's true beauty if I can't be "The Hottie"?
I don't self inflict this is a different type of infliction,
The sad stories...

My life
Haunted by something I can't see,
My life isn't the way I want it to be,
My wrists are mutilated and blood stained,
The other part of me exist on another plane,
I feel in my heart something's not right,
I don't know how to change my life,
The cold pouring rain,
Is washing away my pain,
The reflection that the mirror displays,
Taints my mind in so many ways,
My life isn't what I expected,
There's no happiness I'm deeply affected,
There's so much pain in my heart,
I just wanna be left here alone in the dark.

Detrimental.
I’ve broken the barriers
of my mind,
in an attempt
to understand
what’s been
whisked away from me,
I believed, unfairly.
Leaving me to sip on the
toxins that
burn through
my soul, making
me delirious to reason,
my disgust builds,
my environment
but mush under my
now soaked shoes.
I wish to rip them off,
yet they are the little
of what I have left.
I'm afraid to let go,
so I grip onto them,
unwilling to release,
that of which, is
detrimental to me.

Make it Hurt
No more empty stares
No fortune and fame
No more hollow prayers
Done playing this game
Take away the tears
Take away the shame
Take back all these years
Take back all the blame
If you could
Make me feel something
If you would
Let me feel nothing
Just do what you're gonna do
But whatever you do
Could you make it hurt
Take away the tears
Take away the shame
Take back all...
No fortune and fame
No more hollow prayers
Done playing this game
Take away the tears
Take away the shame
Take back all these years
Take back all the blame
If you could
Make me feel something
If you would
Let me feel nothing
Just do what you're gonna do
But whatever you do
Could you make it hurt
Take away the tears
Take away the shame
Take back all...

Caged Tears.
I suck a sob inside,
inhaling just in time,
before that pitiful cry,
dares to leave my throat,
threatening to expose,
the depth of my weary woes.
My eyes sting,
and my brows scrunch,
a painful smile
making itself known.
How I wish to let
the salty waterfall
cascade, but I must
hold the dam, and take
a deep breath, turning
my head away.
this is not the time,
this is not the day.
Others are not ready
to know my hurt,
to hear my dismay,
so I keep them in,
tears not just...
