Simply Stated
She broke her soul on his feelings
Simple
Breaks like glass
Cuts like love

The Laws they Break to Claim
In your book written by man,
seems you always had a plan,
"Thou shalt not kill," hands carve into stone,
Yet the streets filled, mother's crying in pain,
the dead children lie alone.
Your man made laws seem revered, while gods rules are yet feared, apparently you said they were divine,
Mocked by the blood of innocence that stains the vine.
Oh, the irony of laws they once did pen
Rules from gods, ignored by men.
In lands where olive groves once grew,
The soil runs red was it worth it to "you"? ...

Skin Me Bare
Ghosts have been tearing me apart,
With a tape sealing my lips,
I’m worn out.
So skin me bare like a lamb.
I need it gone—
This decaying flesh.
Mold spread over my whole,
Bones have become putrid,
Blood spoiled and my soul withered.
So skin me bare from this anguish,
Strip me of it with tender hands.
Light me up, let my blood dry,
Watch my bones turn into ashes,
For my soul to climb out of it all.
Keep me inside a cremation urn,
Safe and untouched. ...

So skin me bare from this anguish,

Watch my bones turn into ashes,
For my soul to climb out of it all.

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

Broken Crayons - To My Friend Withers
To my friend Withers ..
The world is a canvas, vast and wide,
And we, like broken crayons, are tossed aside.
With edges cracked, our colours fade,
Yet still, we mark the paths we've made.
Once, we were untouched by sorrow,
Box of crayons, world of endless tomorrows,
Our colours danced across the sky,
Dreams so bright they seemed to fly.
But cruel hands cracked our wax,
Snapping edges, dulling tracks.
Still, we clung to what remained,
Even as our pieces scattered, stained.
Each mark etched deep within our soul, ...

Thank You
I wonder if you see this loving man standing here in front of you
Does it cross your mind all the things I did to keep you happy
Do you even consider all I did to provide and care for you
You were my light
You were my sunshine
I gave you the key to my heart
Now this house is no longer a home
You took every opportunity to disrespect the love I had for you
The warm shoulder I used to lean on has turned cold on me
These tears I’m crying won’t stop falling
This heart of mine won’t stop grieving
Despite all the damage you’ve inflicted on...

mosaic heart
Blessed are the broken hearts
With jagged edges and bloody pieces
Happier are the halves and chips
That grieve a loss too heavy to remain complete
Lucky are painful beating time bombs of mass destruction, that end in tragic wreck
For they will build a mighty fortress
Where love knows where to go, in a castle standing sturdy
A steel-framed wall of regret, memory, and dirty reflection is what protects the mosaic heart so tenderly
For it has healed, grown, and been made new.
But oh… jealous are the whole hearts
Who watch in...

Untitl'd, there's no poetry for this
Had told them “keep your paper gods”,
Ive my own ..
whom exfoliates the illusions away
you were the one thing that remain'd constant
in my life .. until you didn't
the moon went fr’m being majestique
to splinter’d then morph’d into symptoms
of something perverted:
all the tale-tell signs of that I'd given away
the Gift of Trust
.. that I lov’d a little too deeply
…simply invest’d a little too much, of myself..
...

Fast & Easy
I'm in a library with my girlfriend
We're listening to some guy talk about politics
Pro this, anti that
He sounded like an ignorant asshole
He looks into his small, uninterested audience and says that he's looking for a great place to get some dinner
My girlfriend gets up and says, "Would you like a great meal or something fast & easy?"
He says, "I'm looking for fine dining with a romantic ambience."
She says, "I have the perfect place for a great meal and something that's fast & easy"
She takes his hand & leaves

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

Labyrinth of Shadows
We hurt each other for a dull fun, take bitter draughts to numb the pain, ’til our shattered hearts beat hollow as tin drums, ensnared in a love born barren, a lone communion, a pale flame sputtering in the dark.
I want to know by what dark alchemy are we bound to fears we cannot see, each fear
a shadow thickening around the sinking soul? No sorrow strikes deeper than a mind torn, unraveling at the edge of itself.
I am bled of tears, wrung out , this time let ache have its reign, until ache itself goes numb, Grip slipping, a slow erosion of my soul, O,...
