Run Like The Wind
Run I will
When taking these pills
Heals me
And I become debris free
Let go of suffering
Strength buffering
The pain
Again
So I can run like the wind
When taking these pills
Heals me
And I become debris free
Let go of suffering
Strength buffering
The pain
Again
So I can run like the wind

"sensitivite gone stale"
one can't self medicate a heartache; nor even matters of the psychological state (in one's opinion); unconditional "love" goes a long way, but an expensive price most likely one can't afford to pay....
but an expensive price one pays either way.... one's sensitive gone stale; one's sensitive gone stale....
one drowns oneself in juices, to numb one's insides "well"....but of course that only keeps one's aches at bay....

I Write Poetry
The Oxford Languages defines poetry as “literary work in which special intensity is given to the expression of feelings and ideas by the use of distinctive style and rhythm.”
I have a distinctive style in which I directly express how I feel about all sorts of rhythms with my own rhythm.
Don’t tell me I’m not a poet
You may not know it
Yet
Surely you’ll lose the bet
‘Cuz I’m not leaving
Start believing
That my poetry
And all you see
Is purely
Me

drabble pt. 10
no matter how many people i'm around i feel so alone
the people who are supposed to make me feel the most valuable
make the feel the most worthless
i dont know if anything will ever be enough for me
ive had a taste of heaven
so what do you do when youve fallen so deep into the pits of hell
i can beg and beg and beg but no one will ever care enough to change for me
to love me properly
i dont think im meant for love
i never have been and i doubt i ever will be
if you dont want to give me the world then don't
dont promise the ocean and then...

i hate getting naked because i hate the way i look
i hate doing my hair because it will be thin and brittle anyways\
i'm always cold
and i dont think its the low iron anymore
but if its so bad then why do i still look the way i do
am i not disciplined enough?
i cant even lay on my side without rolling up
like a huge carpet
none of my pants fit anymore
not even the new ones i just bought
there's always the rolls, the extra skin
maybe i want to weigh less so i take up less physical space
the same way i hardly exist in anyones mental...

"cure" for the "core" beyond fuel for life's source..people give it labels like thnxgiving
in a world without "mirrors"(manmade reflections of all sorts).... nature's water drawls one nearer; imagine an isolation so deep, that a visit to the source couldn't be less brief....
one doesn't care about one's appearance that much.... just a grab and go-with one's storage day worth water flow.... for some(myself included).... that's the reality....
interaction? i mean-we can speak, but.... isn't less not best-if one values peace? because, what exactly do...

fish bowl
My world is small
but I try to make it feel big
I do yoga
gardening
photography
write a blog
watch random documentaries
and spend way to much time
on social media
And I pretend
these things hold the weight
of my life
I pretend that my loneliness
isn't like drowning in slow motion
I pretend that the things
that make me smile
are contagious and that
someone
anyone
will take the time to give a shit
beyond the
"Oh that's nice" sentiment
And instead of asking ...

Problematic
too much me
not enough them
they rather see love and tranquility
once I start getting some
then you'll start getting some
so I say
I'm not young enough
not old enough
don't have the right amount of faith
or kiss enough butt
can't like the things I like
can't talk about the things I want
otherwise I might get shunned
don't play well with others
I have a big mouth
saying the truth way too often
I don't lie to them enough
my poetry isn't real "art", so they say
it's too rough
too...

Cancer Free
This is my first anniversary
Of the year cancer could have got me
I carried pain nobody could see
Dire news had befallen me
I cried to the Gods, “how could this be?”
“It’s your test,” they replied to me
Learn to accept that your family
Can only be what they can be
Accept all the changes that would accompany
What happens as cancer claims your body
Believe in something you can’t see
Something to remove the guilt that you carry
I came to a place where I could believe
That life had more to offer...

When all else fails I go back to art …
Things have been a push lately
November always hits me hard
It’s then I go back to basics
A craft I call home ….
November always hits me hard
It’s then I go back to basics

Blood Raw
I don't fake shit, I come blood raw
If you knew me then, then you know I'm just as before
No puffed out chest, that shit will get you kill
But you can tell by how I carry myself, I'm the real fucking deal
True I live by a code, live life while I live
Look death in the face and don't fucking give
Think of everyday,every breath as a punch in his fucking face
Laugh to your dam self as he battles to keep pace
What I did I consider the shit done
I don't have to look back at my life to see that all battles weren't won
But I consider...
