If Suicide Had Eyes
If suicide had eyes,
it would possess a paralyzing stare.
If suicide had a face,
it’s ugliness would vacuum the air from my body.
If suicide had hands,
it would would lay its cold claws on me.
If suicide had a tongue,
it would lash the air with hallucinations.
If suicide had any promises,
they would all be empty as the air around me.
it would possess a paralyzing stare.
If suicide had a face,
it’s ugliness would vacuum the air from my body.
If suicide had hands,
it would would lay its cold claws on me.
If suicide had a tongue,
it would lash the air with hallucinations.
If suicide had any promises,
they would all be empty as the air around me.

Off My Medication
So this is what the end looks like.
This is what suicide lurking behind you feels like.
I will no longer sugar coat a damn thing!
Death’s tapping it’s pointed fingernails on my back,
asking if I am ready to crossover into peace.
I can’t go on in the imaginary world
when the real world holds so much beauty.
I can’t be laid into the dark of a casket yet
when the sun of hope blankets my beaten soul.
A soul that’s encased by this body
feels withering and beaten by judgments.
I don’t want to live anymore BUT…
deep down I don’t...

Retire (The Morning After Forever)
The morning will be waiting by the door when I get home.
The ground will be waiting for my arrival,
The bathroom sink calls,
Blood flows smoothly down the drain.
Past my eyes is a reservoir full of water,
It leaks out of my mouth and ears.
I hate the way the water tastes,
I hate the way I can feel my tongue on my own lips.
When I slice the surface of my vessel,
My soul spills out onto the floor,
It flows smoothly down the drain.
The morning will be waiting by the door when I get home.
I wade through the world like a husk,...
The ground will be waiting for my arrival,
The bathroom sink calls,
Blood flows smoothly down the drain.
Past my eyes is a reservoir full of water,
It leaks out of my mouth and ears.
I hate the way the water tastes,
I hate the way I can feel my tongue on my own lips.
When I slice the surface of my vessel,
My soul spills out onto the floor,
It flows smoothly down the drain.
The morning will be waiting by the door when I get home.
I wade through the world like a husk,...

Earnings report
Call comes in report our earnings
One thing missing is all the children we killed
Made 700 hundred million in a quarter of a year
Stack that onto an Octagon billionaire building
A place for when all time ends in Hawaii
He lit a match on social media
Suck up all your data sell it to advertisers while
He trains like he’s in the UFC
Social network trained to destroy the earth
Facebook morphs into meta
Algorithms set to harm teenage girls
You’re own research says it’s so

Like A Summer Rose
I just don't know what to do with myself
Trapped in misery of my own making
Blasting the same song over and over
Each turn met with sobbing and screaming
I just don't know what to do with myself
At first it was about the political climate
The dictatorship soon to embark
And my immediate thought after the results
Was how lucky you were to be dead
So you dont have to live in this calamity
I just don't know what to do with myself
Did you feel this intensely when you did it?
Was the future so bleak and numb to...
Trapped in misery of my own making
Blasting the same song over and over

I just don't know what to do with myself

So you dont have to live in this calamity

The Suicidal
The Suicidal have been strong for too long,
You see them at school the ones that are picked on,
Don't you know that words are destructive?
The Suicidal are dying their lives have been deducted,
How they feel they never say or share,
Not like it's your business not like you care,
When I look deep into the eyes of the Suicidal,
I become empathic and only wish they'd smile,
The Suicidal have been abused,
Imagine if that was me or you,
You spreaded rumors you spreaded lies,
Every few minutes one of them dies,
Easy...

I Wish I Was Aborted
Grab a rope and grab a chair
feet are going in the air
May seem careless, may seem weak
not your approval i hope to seek
Left a notebook saying why i did it all over there
Who am i kidding no one ever seemed to care
Any impact i had will just fade away
Everybody says you can do anything as a young man
Even though i tried this was the one thing that i could plan
Enjoy the ramen i had stashed away
Consume the maggots, that's the price you have to pay
feet are going in the air
May seem careless, may seem weak
not your approval i hope to seek
Left a notebook saying why i did it all over there
Who am i kidding no one ever seemed to care
Any impact i had will just fade away
Everybody says you can do anything as a young man
Even though i tried this was the one thing that i could plan
Enjoy the ramen i had stashed away
Consume the maggots, that's the price you have to pay

Time hurts
In the beginning of our relationship
During our adventures
Id jest with the phrase
"Youve been gone for so long!"
Though it was only 5 minutes
And the days youd cook dinner
Coming back from the kitchen with kisses
Id continue the jest
"You've been gone for so long!"
Though it was at most 20 minutes
But then i had to move
And saw you less than i wanted
But the days i finally got to see you
The phrase escaped my lips
"Youve been gone for so long!"

The Marionette and the Puppeteer
Having fun on his own, the puppeteer wanted any toy to pass the time with—a plaything for his lecherous mind. There, he noticed the puppet sleeping soundly in the same room—the perfect doll, he thought.
At first, it began with stolen glances and grazes across her figure. Then, when the lights were turned off and everyone was asleep, his show started, and his costume was on, designed to do tricks for her—tricks she had never felt before, and neither did she want to feel.
Paralyzed, lying like a corpse as he fastened the strings around her wrists, joints, and limbs, she...

Broken Soldier
Re-emerging from the muddy booze soaked trenches
Into A haze of cigarette smoke and regret.
Drafted into this war by my own past fuck ups.I was fighting before the War , I was fighting against you , fighting for me but I thought it was for you .
Now I fight alone , I fight for love while the other soldiers fight for lust .
Soldier on Young man !
I'm raising the white flag , I lye down in content , I'm to old to keep fighting .
You win , I admit defeat
As A broken man would rather die than continue on and lose everything that makes...
