I am working my way back to you Father
I am working my way back to you Father
I am very sorry for all my bad behavior
But I was frustrated
With the poems I was writing for you
Because I was stuck
Writing poems for you
I started writing some poems for you
But I couldn't get right
So I had to erased it and started again
A few times
Because I wasn't satisfied with
The way it was coming out
Maybe I need to put my brain to rest
And start to vent a little
All day today
I am very sorry for all my bad behavior
But I was frustrated
With the poems I was writing for you
Because I was stuck
Writing poems for you
I started writing some poems for you
But I couldn't get right
So I had to erased it and started again
A few times
Because I wasn't satisfied with
The way it was coming out
Maybe I need to put my brain to rest
And start to vent a little
All day today

It will kill me...
I have never been wanted.
Not really.
Not in the way that stays when the night gets too quiet,
not in the way that doesn’t leave bruises,
not in the way that doesn’t make me question
if I was ever meant to be here at all.
I have been the almost, the mistake,
the afterthought in a crowded room.
Hands have reached for me,
but only when they needed something to hold,
only when they were searching for warmth
that wasn’t meant for me.
I have been told I was loved.
But love, as I have known it,
has always come with...
Not really.

This Feeling
I...
am a ghost,
inhabiting these brittle bones,
wearing a suit of armour made from flesh and skin,
though it's not much good as armour.
Doesn't stop the bullets that shoot from tongues around you,
and it does naught to protect the mind.
Spinning clockwise in a counter-clockwise world around me?
That's me.
I'm lost,
somewhere between point A and point B I slip into non-existence.
I glide through a crowd like a shadow,
unnoticed,
unacknowledged.
I am the sum of all the shards of my shattered...

If I'd been there..
I hope you know I’m thinking of you,
while you lie in that cold, fluorescent haze,
counting the cracks in the ceiling,
listening to the hum of a world
that keeps moving without you.
I know how it feels.
I know how the walls whisper
like they want to keep you forever.
I know how the silence
can be louder than the screams
that got you there in the first place.
I’ve been there too.
More times than I care to count.
I know the weight of a locked door,
the way time slows down
until it feels like you’re drowning in days...
while you lie in that cold, fluorescent haze,
counting the cracks in the ceiling,
listening to the hum of a world
that keeps moving without you.
I know how it feels.
I know how the walls whisper
like they want to keep you forever.
I know how the silence
can be louder than the screams
that got you there in the first place.
I’ve been there too.
More times than I care to count.
I know the weight of a locked door,
the way time slows down
until it feels like you’re drowning in days...

GHOST IN DAYLIGHT
Red light warning.
Open eyed kiss.
Midst my decathect,
Love like lunar waning.
Cut out from the dream tapestry.
Never,behind every door.
Loss,inside every hole.
The key, in every "contradiction".
I am the new moon.
Unseen,and ashamed...
I am the ghost in daylight...
Open eyed kiss.
Midst my decathect,
Love like lunar waning.
Cut out from the dream tapestry.
Never,behind every door.
Loss,inside every hole.
The key, in every "contradiction".
I am the new moon.
Unseen,and ashamed...
I am the ghost in daylight...

Gloomy Night
As she wandered alone
Nobody came along
Her heart skittered so high
Eyes worried in the gloom
The only light a lamp
At the end of a road
Someday he will find
The little brown mutt
With sad blue eyed frown
And recall her name
More than his best friend
For now she looks
Lost and lonely
A little thin
Slightly dirty
Can’t find bones
A soft bed
Masters hand
Upon
Her head
Warm.
Nobody came along
Her heart skittered so high
Eyes worried in the gloom
The only light a lamp
At the end of a road
Someday he will find
The little brown mutt
With sad blue eyed frown
And recall her name
More than his best friend
For now she looks
Lost and lonely
A little thin
Slightly dirty
Can’t find bones
A soft bed
Masters hand
Upon
Her head
Warm.

I Know
I know,
I'm a bitch.
But I will never let someone,
Choose my friends.
I know.
Tough shit.
I guess I'll just be polite,
And pretend.
I know.
They aren't worth it.
But hey!
They must love 2 faced bitches.
I know,
Ill just smile.
Warm their hearts,
For a while.
I know.
They'll never notice.
So high on stupid,
They don't look below it.
I know.
Time is short.
Wish I could talk to the people,
I actually cared for.
I'm a bitch.
But I will never let someone,
Choose my friends.
I know.
Tough shit.
I guess I'll just be polite,
And pretend.
I know.
They aren't worth it.
But hey!
They must love 2 faced bitches.
I know,
Ill just smile.
Warm their hearts,
For a while.
I know.
They'll never notice.
So high on stupid,
They don't look below it.
I know.
Time is short.
Wish I could talk to the people,
I actually cared for.

More than any high
I was never worth the time—
that’s what they taught me.
With every goodbye spat like venom,
with every hand that let go too soon,
with every love that turned to rust.
It became part of me,
a truth carved into my bones:
"You are worthless. Unsavable. Unlovable."
I swallowed it like a pill,
let it settle deep
until I could barely tell
where it ended and I began.
Then you.
You, with eyes full of things
I could never deserve,
watching me like I was something
worth seeing, worth...
that’s what they taught me.
With every goodbye spat like venom,
with every hand that let go too soon,
with every love that turned to rust.
It became part of me,
a truth carved into my bones:
"You are worthless. Unsavable. Unlovable."
I swallowed it like a pill,
let it settle deep
until I could barely tell
where it ended and I began.
Then you.
You, with eyes full of things
I could never deserve,
watching me like I was something
worth seeing, worth...

The Love Poems to all the Unreceived Valentines
She told me she was never happy.
As I made her laugh.
And,
She said that she felt alone.
Whenever she talked to me.
And,
Maybe I don't pick on signs.
But, I wonder if it coulda been something good.
If I had just said hello.
Maybe made her laugh.
I don't really know.
I'm relatively oblivious to the things.
Going on around me.
I don't know the difference.
Between one mystifying display of emotion.
From the other.
But shouldn't being happy when.
Mostly you're miserable...
As I made her laugh.
And,
She said that she felt alone.
Whenever she talked to me.
And,
Maybe I don't pick on signs.
But, I wonder if it coulda been something good.
If I had just said hello.
Maybe made her laugh.
I don't really know.
I'm relatively oblivious to the things.
Going on around me.
I don't know the difference.
Between one mystifying display of emotion.
From the other.
But shouldn't being happy when.
Mostly you're miserable...

Shed
A man is strong
A man is self reliant
A man is dutiful
Torn with pride in their comfort
He fights scarcity and darkness that surround them.
Alone and vigilant
While they peacefully slumber
Judging his own contempt
Longing for tenderness
A man is self reliant
A man is dutiful
Torn with pride in their comfort
He fights scarcity and darkness that surround them.
Alone and vigilant
While they peacefully slumber
Judging his own contempt
Longing for tenderness

Am I the equivalent of elevator music?
You wrap me up in empty promises
I want to want you
I want to want you
but you always leave me waiting
for the bass drop that never comes
and this melody is getting old
You pin me down
without pinning me down
and am I so desperate for love
I would accept less than the minimum
just so I can tell myself I'm wanted?
You look at me
like I'm everything
but your words betray you
your absence of touch speaks so loud
and I'm reminded of how it feels
to be unloveable
Am I so unloveable...
I want to want you
I want to want you
but you always leave me waiting
for the bass drop that never comes
and this melody is getting old
You pin me down
without pinning me down
and am I so desperate for love
I would accept less than the minimum
just so I can tell myself I'm wanted?
You look at me
like I'm everything
but your words betray you
your absence of touch speaks so loud
and I'm reminded of how it feels
to be unloveable
Am I so unloveable...
