Why is it?

Could it be the air that fills my lunges with stagnant stale failure to overcome Could it be these walls that surround me, trapping my freedom, restricting my places to run Or maybe it’s the people, with their consistent bickering stench of negativity and dependence on me The streets I have always walked on, so…

This is me

My throat fills with the pain of loneliness… With all my smooth words and all my fancy maneuvers, I always seem to escape love’s kiss… My thoughts seem focused on one kiss… My mind keeps asking my heart why we fear this… This emotion that can run to the inner corners of your soul… With…

Writers Block

There is this wall in front of me Brittle, decayed yet sturdy Each brick a challenge, stacked till the sky A perfect circle of stone designed to let me die The angle of its design genius, it’s always sunless Yet the dark is thick enough to gently caress My mind is blank, my scenery is…

My mind

Words can’t express the storms my mind creates I will not accept my life is my own creation so it must be fate That I have seen what I have seen That I can only find peace in a dream When awake I feel a rage not known to me When awake I want to…

Open

The words of a broken fallacy, shine through my fingers As I seek company, the stench of loneliness lingers It’s perfume an attack on the senses Strolling in a forgotten world, and all I have is this My pen My pad The days where time sided with me We’re honestly a long forgotten memory Until…

Learning Process

To miserably fail is to greatly succeed Warning aren’t always meant to heed Falling is needed for us to rise Experience isn’t given to one who never tries Thinking should be applied as one moves along Standing still to contemplate to me is wrong Overthinking will prohibit action For fire we need friction And for…

A crush

I sneak in a glance or two hoping she won’t catch me I listen to her voice it’s sweet yet sexy Watch her walk past me, imagine her when I’m alone She would make any place a happy home Her cute bottom lip simply asking for a bite Her fragrance makes a hard day seem…

I miss it

I miss the days were fun was essential Where enjoying myself stood central And my name wasn’t synonymous with give bills to Eat, sleep, play and homework all I had to do My consoles and I were as intimate as any couple My gears were topped and my dragons were double When girls became real,…

Convince me

Show me the letters, show me the tree they engraved it in Show me this fable of a happy ending Let the wrinkles of time not be placed on their mind Then allow me to see what love left behind A kiss folded with passion and beauty Not contempt and complacency Convince me of this…

The greatest struggle

I’ve got voices in my head, they murmur in a low whisper. I listen to each word said, they are my souls blister. They revel in the dark, they thrive in madness. Some feed on acknowledgment, some feed on sadness. From all the voices 6 have taken a chair, signifying their intent. They will remain…

Money issues

Money isn’t everything or so they say That must have been made up by people who weren’t broke everyday Who don’t have to do math in their head Counting up the groceries in their bag This should be about 20, I should have 21 in my account I should be safe if I calculated the…

Caught!!!

Caught in this feeling of wanting to see you smile Kiss you, wait 5 minutes and say it’s been awhile Ask you to get me something just so I can see you walk Record you so when I’m alone I can hear you talk Call you before I go to bed so you can sush…

Am I allowed to miss it?

Let it be known, I hate performing. The buildup, the sensation, I hate the feeling. The way the crowd stares, the way it applauses as if it cares. The preparation of my piece, the disturbance of my inner peace. The constant rehearsing, repeating words written down, all for that hand clapping sound. The beating of…

Sitting On …

Sitting on a mountain of words scared to get up Sitting on memories given to me by life Fortunate to have words slowly running out of luck Haunted by the past, for a better future I strive Sitting on scars placed deep within my heart Sitting on a box I try to forget A search…

Alone

It’s only me even though I’m surrounded by people and voices The sting of neglect bitter, but at times I want this A dark ray in yellow light, alone with a war to fight Awkward glances dissipate as I walk into the night A misty road surrounded by trees Empty conversations filled with pleas Not…

Behind my eyes

I can feel them waiting, anxiously tapping their fingers I can feel them sitting, silently judging any emotion that lingers They try to run every time I close I feel them with every question I pose Every why, every who, every when or what They swirl and scream as they twist my gut I hate…

I never told you

Never had a conversation, everything is in the air Through the years lost the ability to care Your absence was a presence that was always there Valuable lessons taught, life just isn’t fair But just in case my words pull through and reach you, here is what I never told you My childhood was messed…

In between breaks

Morning preparation for a day filled with words Abandoned by understanding, a clash of two worlds Uniforms prance to show their link As formality is used to hide what you think Politeness a tool which could be used by any fool As instructed by every fiber in my body, I remain cool Unanswered questions twiddle…
