That’s How
You look at me with stars in your eyes
Nearly incoherent
Nobody’s ever made you feel this way
Touched you like they know you
Kissed you like they see your soul
You tell me you have to stay
You have to be woken up this way
And you ask me how it is I know you
Baby, I touch you the way my body needs you
I kiss you the way my soul craves connection
I’ll wake you up the way you want me to
But I already know before the words leave your lips
You’re not staying
I know you the way I do
Because I love you
Nearly incoherent
Nobody’s ever made you feel this way
Touched you like they know you
Kissed you like they see your soul
You tell me you have to stay
You have to be woken up this way
And you ask me how it is I know you
Baby, I touch you the way my body needs you
I kiss you the way my soul craves connection
I’ll wake you up the way you want me to
But I already know before the words leave your lips
You’re not staying
I know you the way I do
Because I love you

Tap Drips
The mirror mockingly reflects back at me,
Reflecting my every imperfection.
Noticing another blemish for every time the tap drip resonates in my ear ,
Double chin
Dark circles
Scars on my face from the burns
Noes hair
Gapped teeth
Blood shot sclera
Like my eyes are lychees injected with red dye
I never believed I was ugly
Fire thumb experiments were left
I was never right
Alone in the world at 32, rejected by the superficial society I was unlucky enough to be born into ,
Outdated style
Personality means nothing ...
Reflecting my every imperfection.
Noticing another blemish for every time the tap drip resonates in my ear ,
Double chin
Dark circles
Scars on my face from the burns
Noes hair
Gapped teeth
Blood shot sclera
Like my eyes are lychees injected with red dye
I never believed I was ugly
Fire thumb experiments were left
I was never right
Alone in the world at 32, rejected by the superficial society I was unlucky enough to be born into ,
Outdated style
Personality means nothing ...

Unknown
Have you ever wondered
What it would be like
If you weren’t even born
You would not even be
A dot scribbled anywhere
Or a number on anyone’s phone
Or remembered by those
Who love you or hate you
Or a name chiseled on a stone
Would they even stop
To tell you they miss you
Or is it the loss they morn
If you were a shadow
Cast on a silver wall
Or pain from a thorn
Would it make a difference
When in the end we are all
Born to live in the unknown
You can...
What it would be like
If you weren’t even born
You would not even be
A dot scribbled anywhere
Or a number on anyone’s phone
Or remembered by those
Who love you or hate you
Or a name chiseled on a stone
Would they even stop
To tell you they miss you
Or is it the loss they morn
If you were a shadow
Cast on a silver wall
Or pain from a thorn
Would it make a difference
When in the end we are all
Born to live in the unknown

Not Afraid
I’m not afraid of the dark anymore
I lay quietly and listen
To every breath
Every heartbeat
Every rustle of the sheets
Before I drift off to sleep
There’s no more monsters under the bed
In my life
In my head
I shut them out and walked away
Into a life
Where there’s only me
It’s okay that I’m lonely
I’m not afraid of the dark anymore
And that’s more than good enough
For now
I lay quietly and listen
To every breath
Every heartbeat
Every rustle of the sheets
Before I drift off to sleep
There’s no more monsters under the bed
In my life
In my head
I shut them out and walked away
Into a life
Where there’s only me
It’s okay that I’m lonely
I’m not afraid of the dark anymore
And that’s more than good enough
For now

The Final Act
Before a storm
There is calm
I was warm
In your arms
You unwrapped
Said goodbye
The final act...
You & I
There is calm
I was warm
In your arms
You unwrapped
Said goodbye
The final act...
You & I

Why Bother
Why do I bother to ask
When they don’t want to give
I keep wearing a mask
Of content in order to silently live
Why do I bother to dream
That tomorrow is going to be okay
When tomorrow seems
To be like any other painful day
They tell me I have to be the one
To give from the bottom of the heart
Why do I have to be the Sun
When the Moon doesn’t want to take a part
I always hide behind a smile
I laugh to show the world that all is fine
When shadows dark...
When they don’t want to give
I keep wearing a mask
Of content in order to silently live
Why do I bother to dream
That tomorrow is going to be okay
When tomorrow seems
To be like any other painful day
They tell me I have to be the one
To give from the bottom of the heart
Why do I have to be the Sun
When the Moon doesn’t want to take a part
I always hide behind a smile
I laugh to show the world that all is fine
When shadows dark...

surgery day snapshot
Nerves make me a weirdo
I don't know whether to laugh
or cry
so instead I space out so hard
the receptionist has to call my name twice
In pre op I can't decide what to do
so I daydream, listen to music
put on an erotic cowboy audiobook
and people watch
pretending not to think about
other people's sex lives
I want to be anywhere but here
never mind that I've been waiting
8 months for this surgery
If drown my thoughts in erotica
and inappropriate thoughts about
the secret sex lives of...

After This
Sitting here alone, waiting for someone to take me away from loneliness
And I wonder for how long do I have to wait for someone to caress
And though I dream of love it's so hard to define
And there's no one around that I want to be mine
After this the storm cried onto my lonely heart
That's when I realized that there was no cure for love
And after this the winds howled through my fragile soul
I often wonder who will I be dreaming of
Another day passes by, feeling the same
In truth, someone put out my only flame
I...

Hermetic Breakdown (collab with Vision_of_insanity)
Here I sit alone and broken
My owner is annoyed
Windows won't even open
I lay dormant here, stranded in a church parking lot
Jesus won't help me
The ignition clicks, the engine is shot
Maybe it's time to meet that junk pile in the sky
If I had wings, I'd surely learn how to fly
Inside I die.
A slow demise.
A stuttered stop.
My purpose was forgot.
My owners empathy is unwise.
My detriment is no surprise.
The church is an empty lot.
There's no god that I've got.
Just brutal sun skies.
Scrutinizing...
My owner is annoyed
Windows won't even open
I lay dormant here, stranded in a church parking lot
Jesus won't help me
The ignition clicks, the engine is shot
Maybe it's time to meet that junk pile in the sky
If I had wings, I'd surely learn how to fly
Inside I die.
A slow demise.
A stuttered stop.
My purpose was forgot.
My owners empathy is unwise.
My detriment is no surprise.
The church is an empty lot.
There's no god that I've got.
Just brutal sun skies.
Scrutinizing...

Gone
Sitting here alone
Waiting for someone to share
Speak before I die
Waiting for someone to share
Speak before I die

A Million Little Worlds
There are A millions little worlds
Flat Planets with glass panel Atmospheres
revolving around a Million individual people
they all shine brighter than the sun
every single one
looking to communicate with the other lonely planets
star gazing thru a screen
even though the stars roam by 3ft right from the scene
