Written fro a Friend
Living life
self proclaimed
Born under the house of rebellion
And the sun/son of self restraint in retrograde
Pointing at your heart
here
aim right here
But life just laughs
taking the easy way out
wearing you down
Holding you under
choking on the vomit
spitting up sin
If you die of loneliness
would that be a suicide
Or just a forgotten tragedy
self proclaimed
Born under the house of rebellion
And the sun/son of self restraint in retrograde
Pointing at your heart
here
aim right here
But life just laughs
taking the easy way out
wearing you down
Holding you under
choking on the vomit
spitting up sin
If you die of loneliness
would that be a suicide
Or just a forgotten tragedy

What is left
Sometimes I don't know
What keeps me here
What tortures me enough to stay
I can't tell what I am anymore
A roll of flesh
Wanting nothing more than decay
To be consumed by earths hunger
or
A demon devouring itself away?
What keeps me here
What tortures me enough to stay
I can't tell what I am anymore
A roll of flesh
Wanting nothing more than decay
To be consumed by earths hunger
or
A demon devouring itself away?

Not Alone
you haven't slept in weeks
everyone speaks
but no one hears you talking
and you cried
when I
showed you a bit of kindness
you said you'll kill yourself
you'll kill yourself
you'll hurt yourself tonight
feeling shunned away
fom stupid things said
but you are more than your mistakes
you say you hate yourself
you hate yourself
you can't stand the pain
I know it's hard to believe
but there is better days
and there are people who care
the divide gets sickening
we all feel secluded
but...

Dead
My body slowly becomes intertwined with the soil,
Feeding the worms , giving back to the earth.
I have never felt so free.

Calls From The Beyond
I hear the voices calling,
Somewhere from the darkness in the beyond,
Like a choir and orchestra,
Playing a symphony,
With a beautiful ethereal song.
But they tell me its selfishness,
When one walks on the edge in this path,
Contemplation is but a mere reflection,
When the desire for death comes and goes.
There is so much beauty in it,
The culmination of life,
Leaving unanswered questions,
Like triumph and tragedy,
A mystery for those left behind.
Doesn’t anyone else hear the shadows?
A languid guilt...
Somewhere from the darkness in the beyond,
Like a choir and orchestra,
Playing a symphony,
With a beautiful ethereal song.
But they tell me its selfishness,
When one walks on the edge in this path,
Contemplation is but a mere reflection,
When the desire for death comes and goes.
There is so much beauty in it,
The culmination of life,
Leaving unanswered questions,
Like triumph and tragedy,
A mystery for those left behind.
Doesn’t anyone else hear the shadows?
A languid guilt...

The Gravity of Doubt
What thought for life
torments me enough
to keep from flinging
this dismal soul—
gift-wrapped in flesh—
from these towered heights?
The days were swift
and gone.
Fear grips
this would-be stone,
preventing the fall
that the will now fights.
“Blessed is the Lord,”
my heart defends,
what my mind has opposed,
hammering this hesitant,
restless soul with
heavy,
leaden
blows.

A better place
The world would be a better place
if I wasn't around
I try to bring others up
but all I do is bring them down
My tongue is bitter
Poisoned by pain
I feel like it would be better if I never spoke again
I try to heal the broken hearted
by showing them I care
the fear sets in and suddenly
I can't stand to be there
It's too many deep emotions
Something I can't stand
So when the people I care about need me most
I let go of their hand
I stand back and watch them drown
Because my ability to feel deep...
if I wasn't around
I try to bring others up
but all I do is bring them down
My tongue is bitter

I try to heal the broken hearted

the fear sets in and suddenly
I can't stand to be there
It's too many deep emotions
Something I can't stand
So when the people I care about need me most
I let go of their hand
I stand back and watch them drown
Because my ability to feel deep...

“Waiting”
Waiting with insomnia,
My companion to the end.
Eyes closed, heart in pieces;
Too many to mend.
Racing thoughts, going so slow;
Dreams lost, couldn’t find my way.
Gave up long ago-
In supplication I pray.
A path with purpose;
A burden too great.
Dejected and hopeless
I carry this weight.
Unable to understand,
Or misunderstood.
Intention’s become blurred;
Beginning to question what’s good.
Half truths and trusting smiles;
Love laced with complete lies.
Spreading stain of deception
Bleeding before...
My companion to the end.
Eyes closed, heart in pieces;
Too many to mend.
Racing thoughts, going so slow;
Dreams lost, couldn’t find my way.
Gave up long ago-
In supplication I pray.
A path with purpose;
A burden too great.
Dejected and hopeless
I carry this weight.
Unable to understand,
Or misunderstood.
Intention’s become blurred;
Beginning to question what’s good.
Half truths and trusting smiles;
Love laced with complete lies.
Spreading stain of deception
Bleeding before...

Silent Storm
The hurt is heavy.
The pain, it stays.
A numbness grows,
I can’t escape it.
I walk this life alone,
hope shattered,
broken beyond repair.
Anger, without reason.
I fight myself.
Round after round.
Some days, I wish for the end.
Shadows weigh me down,
fury rising,
my own enemy.
I try to heal,
but the wounds are too deep.
My friends are lost,
believing peace comes in silence.
Someday I...
The pain, it stays.
A numbness grows,
I can’t escape it.
I walk this life alone,
hope shattered,
broken beyond repair.
Anger, without reason.
I fight myself.
Round after round.
Some days, I wish for the end.
Shadows weigh me down,
fury rising,
my own enemy.
I try to heal,
but the wounds are too deep.
My friends are lost,
believing peace comes in silence.
Someday I...

Lets Fight Together
Never let the darkness consume your light,
hold on to the whispers of hope,
embrace the strength within your soul
for you are needed, loved... cherished.
Never believe the lies of despair,
your existence is a beacon,
a guiding star in the night
shining brighter than you know.
Never forget the battles you've won,
each step forward is a victory,
your journey is a testament
to the resilience of your spirit.
Never surrender to the shadows,
for within you lies a fire,
a flame that will burn eternally...
hold on to the whispers of hope,
embrace the strength within your soul
for you are needed, loved... cherished.
Never believe the lies of despair,
your existence is a beacon,
a guiding star in the night
shining brighter than you know.
Never forget the battles you've won,
each step forward is a victory,
your journey is a testament
to the resilience of your spirit.
Never surrender to the shadows,
for within you lies a fire,
a flame that will burn eternally...

I Walk The Line
I walk the line between confidence and suicide, A delicate balance, a tightrope to abide.
One step too far, and the fall is so deep, The darkness below, a secret I keep.
The world sees my strength, my unwavering stride, But inside, a battle rages, a war I can't hide.
Confidence, a mask I wear with such grace, Hiding the turmoil that dwells in this place.
The line is so thin, a razor's edge to tread, Uncertainty looms, a constant dread.
Yet, I press on, determined to find my way, Hoping to reach the light of a brighter day.
One step too far, and the fall is so deep, The darkness below, a secret I keep.
The world sees my strength, my unwavering stride, But inside, a battle rages, a war I can't hide.
Confidence, a mask I wear with such grace, Hiding the turmoil that dwells in this place.
The line is so thin, a razor's edge to tread, Uncertainty looms, a constant dread.
Yet, I press on, determined to find my way, Hoping to reach the light of a brighter day.
