Pained
Pain is only thing that is truly yours ...
It is personal
it is tailored just right
to fit
to feel like a second skin
for the atonement of sin
More of it in the world
than cheers for flags unfurled
or tears gathered in all the wine
colored seas
But why
With all we are meant
to feel
it is able to steal
everything
Write its name deep
across our hearts
scatter to the distant parts
of a most weary globe
From the rise of the sun
the ache has...

By the Purity of Tears
What cannot be said will be wept" ~ Sappho
They are the purest
the truest expression
a most soulful confession
of what lies inside
what cannot be denied
Tears
They stand alone
stand apart
share what the heart
wants so to share
but does not dare
Fears
Can only mount up
for so long
be carried along
until they are too heavy
too much to bear
Release
The inevitable result
from all of this tumult
all of this anguish
meant...

Bloody Rose
Even its scarlet hue
will not do
cannot hide
all of this blood
Death by a thousand cuts
all of those if, ands and buts
Spelled out on the page
written in indelible ink
a lasting stain
to forever remain
Livid and so vivid
upon these trampled petals
will not do
cannot hide
all of this blood
Death by a thousand cuts
all of those if, ands and buts
Spelled out on the page
written in indelible ink
a lasting stain
to forever remain
Livid and so vivid
upon these trampled petals

Her Past Has Come To Haunt Her
Went to a rummage sale.
Bought a portrait of three naked chicks.
My wife suddenly turned pale.
She was one of the nude women.

"The Winter Warsaw Wladyslaw"
Władysław Szpilman’s world, a vibrant tapestry of music and camaraderie, was shattered in September 1939 with the Nazi invasion of Poland.
His beloved Warsaw, a city pulsating with life and art, became a prison, its streets echoing with the boots of oppression. The loss was immediate and devastating: his radio station, his livelihood, his sense of normalcy, all stripped away.
The gradual erosion of their humanity, the forced relocation to the Warsaw Ghetto, the constant fear, the daily horrors—these were the losses that chipped away at his soul. He witnessed...

That Woman In The Picture... She's Really You... Is She?!
I just bought it, Honey.
It would be a perfect conversation piece.
You okay, Sweetie? Look pale.

Augury
I could see the pain in her eyes
For the things that she used to tell
And for the many that she kept to herself
People her time were built different
Like strongholds of resilience and secrets
Every now and then
I’d get a glimpse of the world she came from
She knew that old ghosts sometimes come back
Not to haunt
But try to stir you away from the current path
And yet, she always remained stoic
Death and spirits tend to have that effect on some people
For her
It was a way of life
Because even though now she...

Flayed
A ghost that haunts every time the mirror reflects
crying shame
biting clawing for more
everyone wants a piece
the fuse lit many moons ago
sitting cross legged playing Russian roulette with the ego
finding that balance between bliss emptiness and suffering
burnt offerings throughout the night eyes blinded by the dawns light
crying shame
biting clawing for more
everyone wants a piece
the fuse lit many moons ago
sitting cross legged playing Russian roulette with the ego
finding that balance between bliss emptiness and suffering
burnt offerings throughout the night eyes blinded by the dawns light

Not suffering alone (PTSD)
When we are under a heavy load of stress, it will take a more deeper hold upon the mind and soul, sometimes taking you where you've been and gone through this cycle of life. For sure we sometimes, have to reevaluate our own personal thoughts, on a time ⌚ in our lives that the damage has, already been done. Mentally and physically and emotionally, draining us slowly as it begins to take us back in time. When we were in a a foreign country fighting in war zone, fighting in a war zone that is not our war to be fighting for the freedom of it's own people's. YET still there is a down side,...

Please! Get Out Of Here Quick Before They Come Back!
Todd and Cody stepped inside.
They found Lisa naked and tied tightly.
She begged them to run.
Cody left only to hear a noise.
Her parents done the same to Todd.
They found Lisa naked and tied tightly.
She begged them to run.
