Heals
I used to hate walking in heels,
but the pain of a 6 inch spike pertruding from my heel in comparison too a 6 inch blade to the heart makes it more appealing.
I can walk in pain,
but fall in broken..
Tripping over my own two feet is a talent I hold dear to my sanity,
he was clumsy with his hands,
I was eager with my perceptions...
I was lost in his eyes,
they clouded the deceptions.
I have curves but not enough to render him honest,
enough to fill his hands,
but not too keep his eye.
I was...

Crippling Pain
Crippling pain isn't always the same.
It won't go away.
You are gone cause I was too late.
Now I'm here crying for two days.
Soon to be three just wish you'd see.
With you no longer here daily I bleed.
I wish you had stayed.
Now I'm without a friend.
Left only with crippling pain.
It won't go away.
You are gone cause I was too late.
Now I'm here crying for two days.
Soon to be three just wish you'd see.
With you no longer here daily I bleed.
I wish you had stayed.
Now I'm without a friend.
Left only with crippling pain.

The Voice of a Scar
Sadness speaks through perception
Intimidation factors of our fragile frame
Careless causality of self sabotage
Mercy granted with grace to still self blame
Consequence is a dead harvest
When forgiveness is the hope of divine reprieve
Despite the ways that boast to accuse
Faultless we stand as we learn to believe
Justified not for what we do
Nor promise nullified for what we've done
Love is the change agent as hearts renew
All in on the sacrifice of the Son
Blood in my defense
In conflict with the guilt I feel ...

Of someone I used to know
A nice girl with a pretty smile
Before she hit her low
Before the wrong crowd
Led her to the slaughter
With deceptive emotions
They held their constrained laughter
What am I saying
It was her choice
I just wish she had the courage
To speak her voice
Or maybe this is what she wanted
To disappear from a world
That showed no compassion
And spit on her pearl
However it went down
I'll miss the person I used to know
Loving, caring and strong...

The Storm of Us - Song Lyrics
Broke down
Again
Sitting on the side of the road
I called you but where are you
I just need someplace to go
And where I wanna go is right there
In your arms
And I thought that was what you wanted
Last night in the middle of all the storms
But now I’m lookin at my phone
It’s not ringing, you’re not calling
you’re not home
This was supposed to be our romance
White lights, fast nights
It was supposed to be that once chance
In a lifetime
To get everything we wanted
oo-ooo-oo
everything we wanted
...
Again

But now I’m lookin at my phone
It’s not ringing, you’re not calling

This was supposed to be our romance
White lights, fast nights
It was supposed to be that once chance

Culled Wanting
Heard in grief a window opens and shuts
Woken up by this cause and effect.
Listening for a graphic display.
Another moment passes
I have no more glass classes.
Fragile still only to thrill the idea
I am not the one that needs something to smile about.
Problematic little me knows it's not true
Needing nothing anymore what a joke.
Death is surrounding my vicinity.
Opressing me.
Why does everything have to die?
Alas the world is its own weight.
These shoulders can relate for its a heavy thing.
Raising life to...

Hope
I want to live
Praying for any reason
not to make tonight
my very last one
Sweet joys, fond memories
from times long ago
They make me cry
for a life forever lost
I want to breathe
All I do is choke
Past loss, present pain
I see no future
If I can feel
am I still alive?
Praying for any reason

Aspirations of Apathy
Nothing is real.
Nothing to feel.
I have been drunk with some crazies.
Far afield of what is acceptable,
At least I think so, how the hell should I know.
At the end of the night – Miasma.
My built Ford tough tolerance clear.
As the crazies do what they do.
One sings the same song in different variations.
The others laughed at heart break.
Traces of paradise possibly veil me.
I can certainly feel the singing.
Momentary thoughts open up in liquid portals.
My lunatic laugh stays in silence. ...

Once Dismal Calling
On thorough
A marrow open
Hollowed forsaken
A terrible mast
Cast over shadow
Onto thee sorrow
Gladly walking
These halls
To the gallows.
Fellow bonds
Shackles unlocked
Tipped off
Light here at end
The worsening
The relent.
Lonesome chalice
Left behind
No sacrament.
Docile sin
Relapsed for the win
A sad grin betrayed
Maps out wonder
Listening following
The crackled thunder
The batting down
Hastened in vain
Elastic...
A marrow open
Hollowed forsaken
A terrible mast
Cast over shadow
Onto thee sorrow
Gladly walking
These halls
To the gallows.
Fellow bonds
Shackles unlocked
Tipped off
Light here at end
The worsening
The relent.
Lonesome chalice
Left behind
No sacrament.
Docile sin
Relapsed for the win
A sad grin betrayed
Maps out wonder

The crackled thunder

Hastened in vain

.......Speaking my Mind........
Expendable i am.
Blacksheep of my fam.
Everyone distancing themselves from thee.
Contemplating the extinction of thee.
So utterly alone i feel.
Is this life real?
I see it is a real nightmare.
Ask me if i truly care.
Many reminiscent tales of my personal hell.
Many loved ones taken from this world.
All but me.
I be left behind dispersing many tears.
Nothing more do i fear.
No man living or dead do i fear.
No longer can one voice their opinion, unless it's in line with what the democratic liberals believe.

Universe
Human souls contain galaxies
with minds spanning universes
I’m not supposed to know this
or be so keenly aware of the abyss
Greater, stronger minds than mine
have known and felt and shattered
They never come back to earth
Always different and forever alone
with minds spanning universes
I’m not supposed to know this
or be so keenly aware of the abyss
Greater, stronger minds than mine
have known and felt and shattered
They never come back to earth
Always different and forever alone
