Everything inside me hurts
Not just my heart
But my flesh, and bones,
Into my very soul.
I feel hallow.
Like someone is scraping out my insides.
A spoon against the lining of my stomach walls.
I want to cry, to curl into a ball.
I scratch at my chest, pulling my hair
I inhale, painfully, sucking each breath
Through faltering lungs.
I clench my eyes close, and grind my teeth,
Keeping down the little food in me.
I’m tired. I’m lonely.
aged by people,
who never bothered
to look my way.
Not just my heart
But my flesh, and bones,
Into my very soul.
I feel hallow.
Like someone is scraping out my insides.
A spoon against the lining of my stomach walls.
I want to cry, to curl into a ball.
I scratch at my chest, pulling my hair
I inhale, painfully, sucking each breath
Through faltering lungs.
I clench my eyes close, and grind my teeth,
Keeping down the little food in me.
I’m tired. I’m lonely.
aged by people,
who never bothered

Shame with Pain
I can’t be in the same room with him
I can’t
Just hearing his name is soul-sucking
No one can know about it
They’ll call me a thief
And they would be right
Selfish, greedy, white knight
I can’t
Just hearing his name is soul-sucking
No one can know about it
They’ll call me a thief
And they would be right
Selfish, greedy, white knight

Nights Like This
Nights like this
I need to feel something
Anything
Intensely
I need sand in my teeth,
Blood on my toes,
To soak in diesel.
Something I’ll remember
Or something I should forget
I was born on a
Night like this
I need to feel something
Anything
Intensely

Blood on my toes,
To soak in diesel.

Cramping like crazy
Following masturbation,
Now having regrets.

Solitude
Round and 'round my mind goes,
Where it stops, nobody knows,
Melancholic solitude, ennui, even,
The army of damned souls, the shadow legion,
The eye of my deepest mind,
It takes things it does find,
Takes the romanticized existential wonderings
And turns them into even darker things.
Darkness, sitting in my soul,
Turning my mind ever most foul,
Head foggy, and brain laggy,
Sitting in solitude, enjoying the sound, empty,
Of my loud thoughts racing,
As my mind is wandering
And wondering,
Little use of my...

Demanding Demonic
Like a sepia smudge on the clear landscape,
pain hovers inconveniently,
right at the edge of the visual field
where it is never quite in focus
but cannot be ignored.
Despite attempts to scrub it away,
it lingers, demanding attention
and so I employ distraction.
Some bracing sea air,
good food and great company
fill the afternoon
and my consciousness.
Angry at being ignored,
the pain escalates;
poking and throbbing and provoking.
Evening falls and I give in;
pay it my full attention,
give in to its demands, ...

Remember me
Remember how we used to be,
In love, happy so carefree
But behind the scenes you were discontent
I never knew how deep that went
Until that day you blindsided me
You took my future, no more were we
And now I scrabble for the bits you give
That’s no life, no way to live
So leave me please,walk away
I beg you do this for me pray
I need your strength to begin to heal
Not your pity that’s no deal
But the final thing I plea,
Is one day you remember me
Fondly, kindly, lovingly
As the one who got away
In love, happy so carefree
But behind the scenes you were discontent
I never knew how deep that went
Until that day you blindsided me
You took my future, no more were we
And now I scrabble for the bits you give
That’s no life, no way to live
So leave me please,walk away
I beg you do this for me pray
I need your strength to begin to heal
Not your pity that’s no deal
But the final thing I plea,
Is one day you remember me
Fondly, kindly, lovingly
As the one who got away

the big (broken) picture
i notice, we are
two lost souls
tangled in our own
alone
grayscale world
we rip out pages
wish to cry at songs
but our tears fall for the wrong things
it hurts
i didn’t mean it
no
never meant anything
i do not believe you did, either
for sooner or later, it’ll all unfold
not like a flower poses petals
for an enticing sun
more like cliffside’s dangerous edge
erosion, followed by
landslide
i ask myself what will become of us
in our destruction
amongst the rubble? ...

Asmodeus
Never shall i defeat this demon.
This demon that has me 24/7 fiendin.
The demon Asmodeus.
Has become much more aggressive towards my physical body.
Skin tearing.
Flesh burning.
Like I've said before, the sin won't end until life ends.
Straight up facts i speak about
As difficult as it may be to comprehend.
As soon as you are born into this damned hellish world, sin is running through your veins.
Asmodeus aka demon of lust.
Asmodeus isn't of love, he only seeks to make you bust nuts.
Either on the ground, down the drain, in a...

Broken heart
Broken heart
Has you opened up your hands, I lay in them my fractured heart, now in many pieces it was whole once at the start
Whole on that fateful day, when it was full of joy and hope, then she dashed it on such stormy rocks but I managed to move on and cope
Slowly I rebuilt my heart, then I learned to trust again, helped by those around me, I got passed my fear and pain
Slowly like a emerging butterfly I began to spread my wings, there support gave me flight and all the joys that brings
But sadly I flew to high like Icarus I got...
