Rising with the sun of heated desires
I remove the crusty crabbiness from my eyes
clamor to the bowl of let go and release
the past, repast of yesterday
Disliking the clinginess of morning
sweaters I brush off teeth and tongue
in preparation to another vague
destination
I am still neither here nor there
before I make and consume
at least my first
cup of
black morning after sleep elixir
awake - not certain how much –
now time to scribble in my journal
dreams, goals fat with kindness
inkwells...

Words I'll never speak
I'll be better
Isolated
Drained
Lonely
Misunderstood
Lack of inspiration
Emotional punching bag
Blackout
Vulnerable
I must fight
I don't belong
What am I?
Trauma
Betrayal
I lost my sense of peace
Get away
I'll be a better person
I won't become bitter
I'll be more cautious
My loyalty won't be easy to gain

How a Brain Works
Maybe my brain runs on tracks, spinning wheels over iron bars, going too fast to go back. Maybe my brain is a highway of cars, going 90 in a 60, looking more like shooting stars. Maybe my brain is just a mystery, an enigma even to me. Wouldn’t that be a tragedy.

Deaths assistant
Not too long ago I became death's assistant
Following this life of sin with no resistance
Cause you see I was addicted to the worse drug
Not coke,crack,heroin or meth but money
I might have sip but cash was sweater than honey
It what makes the world spin I ain't no dummy
Money came first no matter the cost it came with
That being said I let the need for cash run my life
Not caring every thing I sold led people to strife
Helping push drugs then let it ravage the community
Seen tweaks tradeing their family's stuff
Or robbing the elderly...

Title Case Ink
I'm morose, plain and simple, strung up and Title Case
I know, I know, I know what it means, I know I know I know
Don't talk to me, it is far too early and I cannot deal
I'm not ready to listen to your tongue twist over your pretenses
Typewriter keys stuck on a blank sheet, y y y y
Tell me a story, don't use your vernacular, use mine
I don't want to sit inside your mind, I'd rather be at ease
Tell Me A Story, Tell Me A Tale, Tell Me When One Goes To Hell
I listen to the silence, the buzz of a body still running
Wondering...

Self love
After many heart breaks
I learnt to love myself.
Perhaps it was a cosmic design
to teach me self-love and self-worth.
It's when you start loving yourself
things start falling into place
because you realise you are
worth loving and worth living
and deserve the best.
You raise your self esteem
and start attracting all good n beautiful.
Develop a good relationship with yourself
because...
It's You who will be with You
in your ups and downs ...

To Future Me
Take a minute
To sit outside
And look at your surroundings
Think of this current moment
Marvel at the beauty
I could describe my view
But it's my own preference
Of what I am thankful for
In this very second
Don't think of the past
Don't think of the future
Just take it all in
Find the deeper meaning
In the landscape
In the weather
And in yourself
Use all your senses
Become one with this moment
To sit outside
And look at your surroundings
Think of this current moment
Marvel at the beauty
I could describe my view
But it's my own preference
Of what I am thankful for
In this very second
Don't think of the past
Don't think of the future
Just take it all in
Find the deeper meaning
In the landscape
In the weather
And in yourself
Use all your senses
Become one with this moment

Tasteless
Food is ugly, words are false;
Finish your plate or else!
Starving hungry with eyes that cannot see;
Understand, I just don’t want to eat.
Never been a vegetarian;
Bacon is too good at being the best meat.
Open fridge to a room full of emptiness;
Shelves so full of complete blandness, so complete.
Never needed a witness to confess;
Willingly I show you around my head.
My heart and soul may be connected,
But my brain and stomach are not even friends.
They cannot relate, my empty plate,
Wasting away, happy...
Finish your plate or else!
Starving hungry with eyes that cannot see;
Understand, I just don’t want to eat.
Never been a vegetarian;
Bacon is too good at being the best meat.
Open fridge to a room full of emptiness;
Shelves so full of complete blandness, so complete.
Never needed a witness to confess;
Willingly I show you around my head.
My heart and soul may be connected,
But my brain and stomach are not even friends.
They cannot relate, my empty plate,
Wasting away, happy...

high
He gave me pills to stop me from being blue
To get the fuck over you
They made the world dayglo orange
With hints of stars and shitty green
They made me laugh at my feet
My big toe I now call Pete
I never pick up a razor blade now
I just laugh here fucked out my head on the couch
I seem to sleep 12 hours a day
The other 12 I am trying to wake up again
I get hungry for Carbs
But now I never self-harm
I see the sunrise over Clapham
While I devour a cheese, ham, and bacon
When all I really want to do
Is pull your...

When I Walk Home
One foot goes two feet as you walk the line that toes the edge, and your nose knows not where it goes, ‘cause you never look ahead.

Worship a Song
What is a song about? A prose on a melody, with words that delude me, confuse me, and allude me to think they apply to me. Lyrics so vague they might as well say nothing at all, refusing me even the basics of similarity, solidarity, identity. I worship false words, if only to worship anything at all.

Life
Everything is pointless; taking nothing in.
Existence is temporary; I do not expect to live.
Only darkness to be found within the dark cloud.
Speechless; silent; broken; down.
First tear in years;
Nobody is here.
Words become truth;
Watch me disappear.
Going, going, gone;
I am the setting sun.
Life in…life out;
I would begin again from the beginning,
If only I knew how.
