Pain Was Built
Picking up the pieces again
Fragmented dreams cut deep
Concealing hurt behind a grin
Dirty secrets crowding sleep
Insanity is located next door
Studying every last tendency
Time’s always keeping score
Strung out in it’s dependency
Idle threats missing the mark
Covered with a clinical desire
Calloused eyes spinning dark
Overt intentions must conspire
Sticky lies that complicate life
Buried beneath this heavy guilt
Reality wields a vengeful knife
Along it’s blade pain was built
Fragmented dreams cut deep
Concealing hurt behind a grin
Dirty secrets crowding sleep
Insanity is located next door
Studying every last tendency
Time’s always keeping score
Strung out in it’s dependency
Idle threats missing the mark
Covered with a clinical desire
Calloused eyes spinning dark
Overt intentions must conspire
Sticky lies that complicate life
Buried beneath this heavy guilt
Reality wields a vengeful knife
Along it’s blade pain was built

Leaving You
I tried to tell you so many times
I tried to put it so you would understand in rhyme
The best I can do is to say it straight
I hate to put more on your plate
My heart is not in what we have
Please don't cry, this is going bad
I tried to tell you so many times
I said and did things, but you were blind
You would have left me if it was the other way around
please do not crumble to the ground
My bags are packed no need for me to stay
I cannot bare to see you this way
You can hate me, curse me, do what...

Blues Song
He knows what he wants
He wants her
Too bad he's too fucked up to do anything about it
All he could do is hurt you
He's a wounded animal blinded by headlights
This could be the universal blues song
He wants her
Too bad he's too fucked up to do anything about it
All he could do is hurt you
He's a wounded animal blinded by headlights
This could be the universal blues song

YOU JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND
It's a shame that you don't nor truly understand that the hurt and pain, that you scared me with not only ripped my heart it tore apart of me. TO never put my trust again in anyone, who came through the doors of my heart and spiritual soul PIMPING... FOR ACTIONS SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS. For you made me feel unwanted and having a low self esteem about WHAT I WANT AND NEED. FOR YOU definitely went as far as destroying, my dreams of being in love with happiness still telling me, I will always be alone. Yet you never once thought that the scares upon me. Would become my badge of my honor, and...

Marooned
the words don’t flow
as freely as they used to
my muse has left me
i tried to write
about my sorrow
i can’t...
it’s too painful
besides that...
no one knows
what it feels like
to lose everything
to have nothing
he knows...
four years of sleep
deprivation
a year
and a half of isolation
imprisoned by my past
it’s brutal what loss
can do... loss, life
and a man ...

Aching through Eternity
Aching through eternity.
How can you feel so heavy
yet so empty?
Simultaneously.
Stone lead hearts
and soul black holes.
Trees ache for the riot
of supple leaves.
Aching wants
are not aching needs
I acutely ache for the return of me.
Empty deny's aching to be full.
My heavy thoughts dream
of veins of empty peace.
Nature's beauty aches to be.
Every single ache,
is a different want and a
different need.
How can you feel so heavy
yet so empty?
Simultaneously.
Stone lead hearts
and soul black holes.
Trees ache for the riot
of supple leaves.
Aching wants
are not aching needs
I acutely ache for the return of me.
Empty deny's aching to be full.
My heavy thoughts dream
of veins of empty peace.
Nature's beauty aches to be.
Every single ache,
is a different want and a
different need.

Dirty Ace of Hearts
Channeling you
Looking everywhere
Then suddenly
You appeared
A dirty version
Former self
Turned out
Struggling to survive
Your immaculate conception
Poisoned on the avenue
Splintered and struck
I had choices
Take you home
Bathe you in sanctity
Or leave you wounded
For the next John
To worship you
Make you into his likeness
Only to fail desperately
As he won't know
What I...

MAGA Paleolithicus
They were an undiscovered type of ape
living among us in truck stops and bars
where there was no acceptable escape
from substance abuse and loud guitars,
and thus they had no complete trains of thought
to mollify the beast in beasty mode
where pride soon saw that they remained untaught
except for using congress as a commode
rather than for tutored parlance, as meant,
and so turbulence ruled MAGA hearts,
so much so, that the jargon which they spent
made less sense...
