4:36 AM
4:36 am, still can't sleep
I think I did everything completely wrong
All I know is...
When you use to touch me
I would think of all of those different men
Fucking my sister & mother at the same time
My hatred towards them, came out towards you
You're in a much better place now
And so am I
One day if i ever get out, I will visit you, for sure
I think I did everything completely wrong
All I know is...
When you use to touch me
I would think of all of those different men
Fucking my sister & mother at the same time
My hatred towards them, came out towards you
You're in a much better place now
And so am I
One day if i ever get out, I will visit you, for sure

A Selfish Heart
Stars observe all the chaos below
Watching human’s hurt one another
Hatred takes root and starts to grow
While pitting sister against brother
Never learning from past mistakes
Gravitating towards great despair
Rushing headlong without brakes
A selfish heart without fruit to bear

Mother Natures Last Walk
Walking in the soft white
With no direction
All I know is my heart is cold
The air freezes with every exhale
Creating intriguing flakes that drift
What have you done?
Some mistakes cannot be repaired
I gave you a home
Nurtured you
Now
I will walk the path to my end
What can a mother do to show her love?
I gave you me
Once the last bloom on the tree of life blooms
Remember how I once was.
Remember the soft summer nights.
When the rose and the orchids perfumed the air
Remember the sweet fruits...
With no direction
All I know is my heart is cold
The air freezes with every exhale
Creating intriguing flakes that drift
What have you done?
Some mistakes cannot be repaired
I gave you a home
Nurtured you
Now
I will walk the path to my end
What can a mother do to show her love?
I gave you me
Once the last bloom on the tree of life blooms
Remember how I once was.
Remember the soft summer nights.
When the rose and the orchids perfumed the air
Remember the sweet fruits...

My Thought for Today: When Words are Used as Weapons
Words can wound, it’s as simple as that. Some much deeper than others. I’ve been annihilated by a few perfectly placed words. But mostly, it was the subtle, off handed remarks that let me know how insignificant I was to someone that buried me.
I’ve been known to have a cutting tongue myself. I can slice a heart in a millisecond. Ironic, considering mine was usually lying at my feet broken into hundreds of tiny pieces as I was attempting to gather them so I could stitch it back together again. Or was it?
Those missiles that flew out of my mouth on their search and...

Guilt
The hour struck delirous
pain spoke of grief
and I ache in its midnight torrent
Harboring the guilt of the day
I labored under the impression I would be free
honesty was silent
and truth glare
It was my hurt to bear
weeping in my need
I bleed
pain spoke of grief
and I ache in its midnight torrent
Harboring the guilt of the day
I labored under the impression I would be free
honesty was silent
and truth glare
It was my hurt to bear
weeping in my need
I bleed

My Blood Donor
Ticking it wall clock
Right behind your front door knock knock
Dwelling in my misfortunes
A path on which I was trading is filled with these potholes
While I went solo
My self esteem is so low
Am dropping next bus stop
My luck's running out nonstop
Explaining why I was such a flop
God! So pessimistic, I can't bear this hold up
Feeling so high yesterday, it's all Disney in Sydney
Today all of a sudden it turns out a house of terror
Stranded forever in this loop hole
For what am saying is no...

The Albatross
I used to think
those hanging an albatross
around their neck
were serious about penance—
those standing their ground
saying, I refuse to retreat
but will go down with this ship
because that's how much I believe;
or, deeply loved—
because any other behavior
would mean I did not
Yet, sooner or later
some kind rebound lover
bearing gifts and poetry
appears in shining armor;
or, perhaps another...

YOU pretend to love me
For it's true that no one is sent to you by chance or accident, so why do you pretend to love me, when you only wanted to use me till I'm broken like crystal broken, pieces of shatter glass. Can you be really honest and truthful, with your own feelings and emotions and genuine, thoughts of why do you really pretend to love me only to be leaving in the end. For sure I thought that we had a sacred connection, yet I see that was created by ghostly images like those that echos from the negativity of my past. For what happen to you and me as we dream of a life together, with love and affection and...

Dirty Little Secret
I regret, not telling you I love you,
When you needed it.
I forget, I always needed you,
And I didn't see it.
I'm losing it; the one I see through.
That I reflect.
When you needed it.
I forget, I always needed you,
And I didn't see it.
I'm losing it; the one I see through.
That I reflect.

I'LL BOTHER YOU NO MORE
YES
I am a slow
learner but
once I learn
it is never
forgotten or
worth spending
idle time trying
to go through
a dead-end..
I
tried being coy,
casual and up front.
sometimes feeling
a brief ray of hope;
BUT
I have learned another
lesson in the life
of a wannabe poet:
"Enough fooling yourself."
I
will never bother
YOU again.
P.S. No! I'm not leaving DUP. Thanks for your encouragement.

Hungry Time
Time sits in the golden dusk of the field,
gnawing away the days.
Hungrily it consumes our lives,
the shaded moments that didn't count
or failures to strive.
Extracting and devouring even the thickest honey of happiness from the soul's hive.
Break away memories from the edge of the day, crumbs left behind make our bellies ache.
For the non- memories, things we wish we had done.
Thinking there was a million more sun's.
The echoes of all that was left unsaid, a lead burden, if only a mind could be read.
I must not waste a moment of time, ...
gnawing away the days.
Hungrily it consumes our lives,
the shaded moments that didn't count
or failures to strive.
Extracting and devouring even the thickest honey of happiness from the soul's hive.
Break away memories from the edge of the day, crumbs left behind make our bellies ache.
For the non- memories, things we wish we had done.
Thinking there was a million more sun's.
The echoes of all that was left unsaid, a lead burden, if only a mind could be read.

Don't Fall in Love With Me ( Redux )
I'm worth it
But there's a short stay rate
Like fast food
Good going down
But makes you sorry later on
Best to enjoy me in the moment
The road is calling
Let's drink to today
The beer is cold
And this cowboy is singing your song
But there's a short stay rate
Like fast food
Good going down
But makes you sorry later on
Best to enjoy me in the moment
The road is calling
Let's drink to today
The beer is cold
And this cowboy is singing your song
