A Girl
Crystal lakes inside soulless eyes,
Snow melting on limbs of weakness,
Fiery gold cascading from overhead,
A pinch of “self hate”
A pinch of “self questioning”
A pinch of “Bad Mistakes”
Scars from the sharpest words,
Sexualization from a young age,
Just to be labeled “Jail bait”,
This is what makes me, a Girl.
Snow melting on limbs of weakness,
Fiery gold cascading from overhead,
A pinch of “self hate”
A pinch of “self questioning”
A pinch of “Bad Mistakes”
Scars from the sharpest words,
Sexualization from a young age,
Just to be labeled “Jail bait”,
This is what makes me, a Girl.

Very Nice Vacation
I’m like “that nice vacation”
I’m easy going,
I’m extremely fun,
I’m intense love,
Im pure passion,
I’m rushing excitement,
I’m home sick,
I’m becoming bored,
I’m lack of,
I’m need of,
I’m check in,
I’m check out,
I’m “Hello, your room is”
I’m “thank you for your stay”
I’m “Please visit here again”
I’m no one stays for long
I’m that “Very nice Vacation”.

My shell
I enshroud myself
within a shell
a feeble shell
of strength
and carelessness
because I’m afraid
of a mighty fall
of losing all
the love I try
so hard to harness
within a shell
a feeble shell
of strength
and carelessness
because I’m afraid
of a mighty fall
of losing all
the love I try
so hard to harness

Pavements
curbside dreams, and smoggy streets
is where my body longs to be
where lampposts buzz
and the moon kisses my frost bitten cheeks
so rosy, though not one can see
i am alone, but far from lonely..
i have miles of pavement to keep me company
what good is daytime strolling
when all i do
is burn beneath the sun
and smear chalk onto everything?
that, and the heat
is just plain exhausting
so i pick myself up
when nobody’s watching
and carry on pavements
that never see walking
is where my body longs to be
where lampposts buzz
and the moon kisses my frost bitten cheeks
so rosy, though not one can see
i am alone, but far from lonely..
i have miles of pavement to keep me company
what good is daytime strolling
when all i do
is burn beneath the sun
and smear chalk onto everything?
that, and the heat
is just plain exhausting
so i pick myself up
when nobody’s watching
and carry on pavements
that never see walking

Elated/Sedated
To be elated or sedated
That's all she wanted her whole life
Her whole life stood still
It’s all a big game
Stakes are high
It's all or nothing
This time around
No truth, No lie
Just the inevitability
Of ending
Ending whole
Drown me in elation
Cover me up
Make it matter
Make it matter more.
Nothing was ever pristine ...
That's all she wanted her whole life
Her whole life stood still
It’s all a big game
Stakes are high
It's all or nothing
This time around
No truth, No lie
Just the inevitability
Of ending
Ending whole
Drown me in elation
Cover me up
Make it matter
Make it matter more.
Nothing was ever pristine ...

The Fish
In the deep blue ocean where the fishies sleep
A guppie wakes up to the smell of meat.
A great white shark is patrolling through
Watch yo back fish, he’s coming for you!
Guppie swims around the coral reef
Frantically searching for the fishie chief
Waking all the fish that he can find
Swim for your life, fish, or you’ll lose your mind!
Fishy fishy fishy yo brain is so squishy
Stop scrounging around for a bottle of licky.
Yo scales feel icky yo sense are whack
Watch yo back for a shark attack!
A guppie wakes up to the smell of meat.
A great white shark is patrolling through
Watch yo back fish, he’s coming for you!
Guppie swims around the coral reef
Frantically searching for the fishie chief
Waking all the fish that he can find
Swim for your life, fish, or you’ll lose your mind!
Fishy fishy fishy yo brain is so squishy
Stop scrounging around for a bottle of licky.
Yo scales feel icky yo sense are whack
Watch yo back for a shark attack!

just some bloke in the crowd
the everyday and the commonplace is where I liked to lived here for years
no one noticed my face
no one noticed my face

Crimson Judgment
- Crimson Judgment -
Long I awaited, in shadows cast, crossing into the other worlds parallel...
Mine eyes beheld what I was in all those mirror reflections of this reality.
Months passed, and a year I think, until mine ears heard a solitary call,
Which brought me back from the length and breadth of my long journey.
History hath changed, a shift hath taken place behind the known design...
And we art on a course for desolation, madness, and scarlet destruction!
A third of those who fell art awakening, my kindred who know the sign,
Whilst I walk...
Long I awaited, in shadows cast, crossing into the other worlds parallel...
Mine eyes beheld what I was in all those mirror reflections of this reality.
Months passed, and a year I think, until mine ears heard a solitary call,
Which brought me back from the length and breadth of my long journey.
History hath changed, a shift hath taken place behind the known design...
And we art on a course for desolation, madness, and scarlet destruction!
A third of those who fell art awakening, my kindred who know the sign,
Whilst I walk...

HARD
life is hard
death is hard
I'm hard
these times are hard
why is everything so fucking hard?
i'm a rebel without a pause
my mind runs races
something's wrong with my heart
and I can't even trace it
wish I could slow down
give up this fight I've been losing
not sure what it is I'm fighting for
imaginary enemies all around
so I rather just shut the whole world out
my head is a graveyard
always digging up the past
reminds me I'm a fucking asshole ...

dying to live
i am a man
of solitude
destined to be
alone
i long to hug
the world
love thinks i have
an attitude
hate thinks i am
a stoic man
destined to be
cast down ...
of solitude
destined to be
alone
i long to hug
the world
love thinks i have

hate thinks i am
a stoic man
destined to be

The Wise Guy
My date asked me...did I
ever go to school any
I told her oh yeah honey I have
been going to school a long time
I've got 2 or 3 Master's Degrees
from the schools I have went too
I know a whole lot of other stuff
I have learned here and there
I know some real cool tricks I
caught on to as time went by
I catch on to things pretty quick
honey you ain't never gonna see
a better educated man than me
you may not think I am wise
I just about know it all
ever go to school any
I told her oh yeah honey I have
been going to school a long time
I've got 2 or 3 Master's Degrees
from the schools I have went too
I know a whole lot of other stuff
I have learned here and there
I know some real cool tricks I
caught on to as time went by
I catch on to things pretty quick
honey you ain't never gonna see
a better educated man than me
you may not think I am wise
I just about know it all

I define.
a sort of teetering
on a precipice
insight and clarity
from tired meek
to almost fully heard
Oh to roar
allowing for unselfish focus
doubts drift
stresses of unsure
or insufferable insecure
s l i p a w a y
silent bursts
of all that's etched
to marvel in
hard fought, learned
permeate from inside out
i glow in raw iridescence
a fresh breeze mixed
with antiseptic sunshine
dispelling
desperate smoke
