No End To Demand More Than Friend
Microanalytical Hypercritical Indivisible Individual
Unequivocal Impermissible Unforgivable Criminal
Stealing Emotion In Motion Acts Of Sin And Devotion
Implosion Outspoken Interwoven Yet Heart Broken
And You Come To Me Begging Me To Set You Free
Black Sea Of Debris I Decree You Are Dead To Me
Spurning Hands Demand Turning Of Command Key
Guarantee We Shall Disagree Relationship Wannabee
Unequivocal Impermissible Unforgivable Criminal
Stealing Emotion In Motion Acts Of Sin And Devotion

And You Come To Me Begging Me To Set You Free
Black Sea Of Debris I Decree You Are Dead To Me

Grave
Lying in the grave
Trying to figure out what i did
Looking up at the gray
Beneath the surface
My eyes hurt
But i can’t close them
It wont be long until they shut
Savoring this last moment
Sometimes i had hope
Unrequited love was always my friend
Failure was always the result
I can’t even fold
I had a decent childhood
Flowers planted above
My tears’ll feed the roots
When the sun shines they'll bloom
Dirt falls on my face
Thought about my reputation
I wasn’t known as one who talked...
Trying to figure out what i did
Looking up at the gray
Beneath the surface
My eyes hurt
But i can’t close them
It wont be long until they shut
Savoring this last moment
Sometimes i had hope
Unrequited love was always my friend
Failure was always the result
I can’t even fold
I had a decent childhood
Flowers planted above
My tears’ll feed the roots
When the sun shines they'll bloom
Dirt falls on my face
Thought about my reputation
I wasn’t known as one who talked...

Out Of Reach
I gave my heart and soul to you
But you put up a wall
I showered you with everything
You came and took it all
Then blocked me when you'd had your fill
Turned the other way
Swallowed in my everything
To live another day
You show me no re-actions
You speak no words to me
Your being lives in solitude
For all the world to see
How I wish I could break your wall
If you'd let me in some day
If I could see past your outer shell
This, each night I pray
But you put up a wall
I showered you with everything
You came and took it all
Then blocked me when you'd had your fill
Turned the other way
Swallowed in my everything
To live another day
You show me no re-actions
You speak no words to me
Your being lives in solitude
For all the world to see
How I wish I could break your wall
If you'd let me in some day
If I could see past your outer shell
This, each night I pray

hug, not argue
My reality
My fakery
Where one begins
Where one ends
Full of emotion
Apprehension
Over what did
Of what could be
Of what is not
Never will be
Desperate to connect
Mind seared
With love's passion
Frozen in time
Companionship grateful
Friends with benefits
Limited connection
Suffocation
Relationship bridge
Inner core yearnings
Of monstrous proportions
Boy meets girl
Girl meets boy
Love hoax
Only beginning
End in sight
Set stage right
Begin meets end ...
My fakery
Where one begins
Where one ends
Full of emotion
Apprehension
Over what did
Of what could be
Of what is not
Never will be
Desperate to connect
Mind seared
With love's passion
Frozen in time
Companionship grateful
Friends with benefits
Limited connection

Inner core yearnings
Of monstrous proportions

Cold Eyes
I’m so sick of being attached to people who obviously don’t give a fuck about me”
But you didn’t bother to correct me Cold Eyes choking me by the smoke of your cigarette that i pretend i don’t mind
And then i was gone in the labyrinth of my ribcage
chewing on the bars ripping out innards ravenous abandonment
rejection throwing haphazard bones onto your living room floor
The child i was feraled from her dwelling
A heathen cured in bile the parasite leaching her way into control
Retching all the way up my throat to the bar lights...

Numb
How can one love
If they cannot feel,
You broke my soul
While kicking my heart,
I try not to mention
For I may well crumble,
But Writing may ease
When all's down on a canvas,
Lonely drifting from
Place to place
Never finding those safe
feelings and looks
Of a true magical soul,
You stole my youth,
And banished my friends,
The secrets I told you
Was not yours to share
Of a Childhood scarred
By the ones I loved,
I hope some day karma will come
And repay you from
The hurt you cast upon ...

Her anger 1 - 5
Her anger 1 (When I was two)
You pee your pants like a baby.
Here's a diaper for you.
Rubbing your nose in the mess.
Bad girl! I shout.
We do not pee our pants in this house!
Her anger 2 (When I was six)
Tied to the chair, it was time to eat.
Knowing I hated fish and canned beets.
She comes over taunts me with words.
The rest of them laugh as shes overheard.
Shove my face in it just like that diaper.
Tied to the chair no way I can fight her.
They all laugh in amusement as I am force fed.
Distant now just...
You pee your pants like a baby.
Here's a diaper for you.

Beneath the Mexican Moonlight
I recall the warm night beneath the Mexican moonlight.
It was there I lost my beautiful Spanish maiden.
We had planned to meet at the café earlier that evening,
But something went awfully wrong with our plan.
She might have had some other important engagement.
I was in love with her and so anxious to be with her.
It was almost midnight and there was still no sign of Maria,
So I left the cafeteria in sadness and headed for home.
Suddenly I heard the soft strumming of guitars,
And the song that was playing invigorated my heart.
I walked...

I Can't Be Just Your Friend
You observed my perpetual sadness
And your curiosity got the better of you,
But you didn’t intend to give more than words.
You texted me on Facebook Messenger
And you asked me some personal questions.
At first I was a bit hesitant to respond,
But I gave in because you persisted.
Although you weren’t aware of my needs,
You said you wanted to help me.
I asked you to have a baby for me,
You didn’t take my feelings seriously,
You thought I meant a surrogate mother.
I don’t know why I trusted you.
I’m not looking for a sororal...

Alzheimer’s - Learning yourself all over again (through their eyes)
The best of me will slowly die, be strong for me no need to cry. When it takes my mind and health, I'll be a stranger of myself. Even when I'm beyond confused, that’s the time i need you most. So stand beside me don’t leave me now, I'll find a way to you somehow.”
Please tell me I’m worth the fight,
please tell me everything’s alright.
I didn’t mean this burden caused,
no longer act, or behave as who I once was.
I stand before you, my mind does not,
a life once shared, I now forgot.
I can’t always be in control,
so take my mind but leave my soul. ...
