Quill and Moon
The quill dried, waiting
Thirsting for the crimson ink
To slake its hollow shaft
A reservoir for my worry
The moon wept, lingering
Hiding behind the clouds
After hanging in the night sky
A quiet listener to my story
I broke a promise, ignoring
Their offer to balm
My decaying corpse
Perishing within walls slowly
Into quietus.

My decaying corpse
Perishing within walls slowly

care
bleeding in feeling
I release the venom that is killing
a sigh escapes my lips
so exhausted from hurt
it drains me, my sacred heart burning
emotions overpower me
holding me hostage are ultimatums
behave this way or else
fear keeps me in line
it's breathing down my neck
my scars are apparent
my vulnerabilty too real
I'm soft to the touch
my desire to fit in grows but I don't
too different from the pattern
that society has handed down
a uniform too tight
restricts me from saying how I...

Echoes Of Solitude
remember
that feeling
of loneliness
that black pebble
on a shore
of white
something
unique
in sadness
difference
has its
darkness
silence
has a
voice too
if you
listen
carefully
holding
on to
sunlight
can be
the only thing
to do
a little warmth
in the bitter
cold of life
where
numbness
recedes

Fade
falling through memories I watch you fade
touching your soul we come close, then pull away
darkness of faith I love you utterly
captivating my heart you charm
spilling my secrets I tell you everything
my closest confidant
I need to tell you there is something missing
caress the feeling and talk to me
of today and always
my sorrow grows when you leave
with the knowledge I can't reach
to touch all the places you hide
my soul seeks yours
we fall apart and then make up
old hurts grow and distance is caused ...

Iranian Jew legally executed in Iran for murder is predictably, selectively eulogized!
By Stanley Collymore
It's quite interesting to me that
an Iranian citizen who was
Jewish by religion, in a
court of law in his own country and through
the due processes therein was found guilty
of murder, sentenced to death and actually
duly executed by the state through literally
being hanged. An execution however, only
of one man, but which really nevertheless
has several white Britons, and literally too
their vilely reliably Useful Idiots simply up
in arms; but the callous, and undoubtedly ...

My love, your love, his love, and our love
My love, your love, his love, and our love
Are all different from each other
Let me tell you about my love first
My love is very weak
Like the baby
That had just been born
Today
Your love
Is very strong
Like the thunder
That is going on in the sky
Right now
His love
Is very special
Because he is giving
It to us right now
Are all different from each other
Let me tell you about my love first
My love is very weak

Your love
Is very strong

Plenty of anger
There is plenty of anger inside of me
It has to stop
Why is there so much anger inside of me?
My anger is part of my frustration
I have to control it now
My anger causes me plenty of trouble
There is plenty of anger inside of me
And what is anger do I know?
Anger is a strong feeling of displasure
It is a grief that I have inside of me
How can I control it?
What triggers my anger?
Can I recognize it?
It has to stop

I have to control it now

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...

serenading sorrow
welcome to my darkness make yourself at home
among the shattered remains of haunted memories
taste the sadness mixed with melancholy
sorrow will serenade your hurt
lilting pain from her tiny frame
your keening will entertain the many ghosts
should you join them
traveling over us, visitors of past regrets
days I was less than
a slow dance is death
so many vagrant thoughts make their home here
they reside within my inner chambers
little notes of despair escape me
rising on the air in somber tones
to quell...

vulnerable rain
catching rain in my soul
my heart is cleansed
beautiful day when the storm rolled in
carrying away my hurt on the winds
to be blown across an open field
I watch the gray sadness collect as fog
lighting on little flowers to open later
scribed on their petals my soul's sadness
to be plucked later
he loves me he love not
sacred heart carrying my heaviness
the sun smiles my tears are reflective
my blues mix with the sky, touching everyone
no one notices me cry
weeping for the beauty of living ...

The Edge
Is There a shadow In your Shell
Growing like a parasite
Just beneath the skin
Of your mask
Deep within
Where one's rage anger sorrow
Dispair
One's Slow
Loss of empathy
Of this twisted humanity
Watch other shadows
On the wall
In your cave
And you pray
To whatever
Disigned us
They they Stay
Entertained
Growing like a parasite

Dispair
One's Slow

And you pray

Disigned us

Pandora's Box
They say Pandora's box is full of woe.
Ignoring her one big fall.
They say it can curse and kill.
No matter what you feel when you open it.
They say it contains dark magic.
Not something that could be described as tragic.
As the box slowly opens,you begin to see.
Pandora is actually as sweet and kind as can be.
But the items,thoughts in the box.
Sometimes,she locks it away so people don't run away.
But even if her box contains dark thoughts.
She is a person like us all.
Even if her contains ate tragic. ...
