heartbeat dissonance
Add some words to a bucket
and throw them at me
I'll find something unreal in there
tell myself this narrative will stick
like this real world hallucination
isn't all in my head
I colour in the threads of history
embroider them in red
pretend we mattered
because we did
we did
we did
...
didn't we?
If I was any more whipped
I'd be in pieces on the floor
carved up in a macarbe feast
for your particular tastes
So splay me open
inspect these unseen parts of me
it's...

Replication
Your eagerness echoed his persistence,
both vestiges of the whispered call
I heard telling me I was home
in his arms and from his chest so many lives ago
Not to mention my first follow, little cloud left me in darkness
Model 4, not counting revisions within editions,
wrought, knowingly, with pitfalls and potholes and risk
with blind eyes wide open, I enter
high risk; an exponential increase to the charge
I am sparking, seeking a flame to burn only me
The distortions I've been spinning myself,
thinking in moments I...

Captured
Sometimes I close my eyes so I can't see
Sometimes I feel so close
So trapped I can't breathe
I just want to be by myself
Just set me free
Just let me be
Release me
You've got me in this cocoon
that I can't pry open
So I scratch and I punch and I pull at it
till my fingers bleed
You've trapped me in this box
where I can't breathe
So I yell and I fight
till the box fills with my screams
Just let me be
Just set me free
Release me
You've got me in this world
Where my head is spinning ...
Sometimes I feel so close
So trapped I can't breathe
I just want to be by myself
Just set me free
Just let me be
Release me
You've got me in this cocoon
that I can't pry open
So I scratch and I punch and I pull at it
till my fingers bleed
You've trapped me in this box
where I can't breathe
So I yell and I fight
till the box fills with my screams
Just let me be
Just set me free
Release me
You've got me in this world
Where my head is spinning ...

It doesn't matter to me

What the rich people thinks
About the poor
I know that the rich people hate the
Poor
Also the poor people are always
Suffering
Some have a drink problem
And they drink like a fish
The rich people won't give a meal for the
Poor people
And the poor people are always starving every
Single day
Also they are dehydrated because they have
Nothing to drink
Also the poor people sleeps in the street
During the Summer
They also refuse to go to a shelter
Because of bed bugs
God is always...

Forlorn
Wandering ghost past faces
A feast for their eyes
Yet still unseen

Love Lasts Forever
A cold December night
It changed his whole life
She'd not been long his wife
But in that night she died
Helpless - he stands there all alone
Lonely - a long hard way to go
When they first met the angels sang
It was love at first sight
Her lovely smile, her happiness
Will never leave his mind
He loved to dance with her
The plans they've had are over now
He can not hold his tears
He tries to go his way somehow
But he's to sad to bear
He can not forget her
In some nights he can find no sleep ...
It changed his whole life
She'd not been long his wife
But in that night she died
Helpless - he stands there all alone
Lonely - a long hard way to go
When they first met the angels sang
It was love at first sight
Her lovely smile, her happiness
Will never leave his mind
He loved to dance with her
The plans they've had are over now
He can not hold his tears
He tries to go his way somehow
But he's to sad to bear
He can not forget her
In some nights he can find no sleep ...

Snow Globe Syndrome
Little girl lost, lost her way
Desperately broke free from her cage today
She lost count of herself along the way
Packed up her memories and walked
away
Born to a family of evil origin
Baby girl was never even given a chance to begin
The toy discarded and thrown back in the bin
She waited for a kind of love that was never given
A roof, some clothes and food to eat
Bonds not formed, neglect on repeat
Held down from becoming complete
How could they so callously mistreat?
She became...

Dismissing Longevity.
Influence and neglect
A damned light to bend.
Ordinary distractions
Reap that which desires attention.
The need
The want
The love
Prospering joy left behind
Lingering derived emotives.
Pursuance slid down slowly
Scathing the walls of retrospected trust.
Too much time
Too much loss
Too much change
An empty dreamers lucidity
Caved in and left to wallow.
Scorned betrayed and disallowed
Meant to stay away and decay.
All so close
All so far
All...
A damned light to bend.
Ordinary distractions
Reap that which desires attention.
The need
The want
The love
Prospering joy left behind
Lingering derived emotives.
Pursuance slid down slowly
Scathing the walls of retrospected trust.
Too much time
Too much loss
Too much change
An empty dreamers lucidity
Caved in and left to wallow.
Scorned betrayed and disallowed
Meant to stay away and decay.
All so close

All The Lonely People
I feel if someone put their arms around me
If I felt the weight and warmth of another
I might just crumble
Into minuscule pieces
Of old sharp pottery
If I felt the weight and warmth of another
I might just crumble
Into minuscule pieces
Of old sharp pottery

Autumn Has Vanished With My Dreams
The leaves have fallen from the trees
The air has turned cold
My lungs ache
The feeling…familiar
Memories still haunting
As I search for answers
All I find
Is my broken soul
The air has turned cold
My lungs ache
The feeling…familiar
Memories still haunting
As I search for answers
All I find
Is my broken soul

CONFESSION
I've heard confession is good for the soul
Though I wonder when it's a stairwell to a bottomless hole
Spiraling downward in rings of loneliness
Where no one will listen to a depressing endless tale
Without a witness to absolve the spirit of a body full of sin
Or anyone to care about your honesty at the fatal end
You may as well keep it to yourself
Bottled up with a cork to seal in secret stealth
How no one cared enough to share
The love you nutured within there
A lifetime of emotion filled with hope
Forever dangling at the end of a...
