StumblingI'm losing my truths,
Stumbling
Searching for epiphanies
In the same old things

My rhymes are fading out,
Color slowly leaving
Seeing gray in everything
Wondering if this is grieving

The world is collapsing,
Afraid my art will flee
Losing hold of the thing
That really let me be me

The flow got disrupted,
Trickling
Waiting for it to pick up
Praying for a spring

Trying to remember
How hope got so far above
All of my will
Tied up with all my love

I promised you forever
So why can't I have right now?
I need to put my world
Back in place somehow.

PainPain is but a thing. It cometh to all of us but some of us can forget.
Pain is but a notion. It is what you let yourself feel when you wont feel anything else.
Pain is but a feeling in the flesh. A mere acceptance of a lack of anything else.
Pain is necessary.

Everyone gets hurt. Everyone feels the pain.
It's a step on each of our paths.
Pain is acceptance of loss.
Pain is necessary.

CircleYou find love at every corner
But life is no more than a circle
Once found, Then lost
Once remembered, Then forgotten
What goes around comes around
A knife piercing my back
Each time going deeper
More pain than the last
Walking forward, ending nowhere
Like climbing a mountain
With no summit
The moon is blinding
The sun is dimming
My circle has grown
With life more meaning

But still I see abyss
The darkness taking over
Now blind by sorrow
All I do is listen
What goes around comes around
The sounds of knives
Still piercing my back
No corners to run to
No love to be found
No corners to run to
No love to be found

CursedThis wretched curse, so fierce, so vile,
Has survived the seasons for the while,
And when shaken it stirs not,
When hunted it shant be caught,
Elusive as a fairy,
Though nothing close as merry.
Confusing, haunting,
Unwanted, daunting,
Harking at my chamber,
For life it is remainder,
Twisting body and mind,
Creating deafening and blind.

And here stands the mind of a Hatter,
Cursed with nothing left to shatter
And yet it still persists
Even the darkest of the midsts:
The midsts promised to never unfurl
For it taints the blood of those not churl.

The countdown has started,
The mind has departed
As illusions shall glisten
In

Like a CloakI gather all my emotions around me.
I wear them like a cloak
Hooded,
Hiding.
Peering silently out;
My eyes,
Crimson,
Swollen,
Filled with the tears
Of the past.
I wrap my cloak tighter
Like a fortress;
Walled,
Guarded.
Keeping me safe;
From the enemy
Of ..
Love.

The First ConcertThe outside air was thick and chill
The line was long, wrapped all around
Around the building in which we would enter
Awaiting to see the bands on the bill

Everyone crowding around us
The room was large, dark, filling up fast
Energy jolting from every which way
This special energy, would definitely last.

The first band comes on
No one knowing them by name
They were only "the opening band"
They didn't fit in and were really just lame.

Hatebreed came on, the room filled up once more,
With loudness, excitement, crowded from stage to door
Thrashing began, the pit opened up
Joy, pain, and music filled up everywhere.

One more came

ChoicesA restless night,
a sleepless bed
a child stays awake

Worried for herself
worried for her family
worried for her mommy and daddy

The angered shouts spread to her room

She hugs her teddy bear tight
and wishes she didn'y have to choose

Her mommy says she loves her more than daddy
and says bad things about him
Daddy kisses another women
and tells her not to tell mommy

More yelling

A year passes

She doesn't like the new mommy,
daddy has chosen
She doesn't like the new daddy
mommy has

New mommy asks to see the family picture
she drew

The new mommy wants to know why she's not in the picture

The little girl says
"I choose

My Label/ Hi, My Name Is...Sometimes I think I need to wear a label,
A sticker,
A collar,
A tag…

That will tell you what is wrong with me…

"Hi, My Name Is:
Easily loving, falls to quickly, doesn't know when to stop, tries her best but can't succeed, and only wants to hold someone's hand… to feel that hand on her shoulder when she cries…"

The ink would be smudged across as if written in haste, a couple letters bolded in spots as if trying to fix a mistake…So many mistakes…

The edges would be peeling as if to forget I ever existed all together…
Sometimes, I think I need to wear a warning…

So you will know ahead of time th

This Is When You Love Me BackTake me away from here;
May I bask in the memory
Of a far off sun, and
Hide in the crooks of
Your smile?

I've been so cold without
Arms to feel around me.
And I've sold off my comfort,
For a chance in your mind.

You offer me so little,
As a consolation prize.
So take me away;
I deserve one moment
In your eyes.

MaelstromAs we see cold pictures in the sky
Tongues of fire fall again tonight
Breaking down all we make
Crushing us 'til we break
And we crawl to the edge of forever
Will you please give us another try
To break open the heavens tonight

Now I've fallen too far
So take me higher
I suffer from these scars
I can't decide how
To devote everything I am
They all watch me burn
Those hollow words I wrote
When will they all learn
To turn this fire into life

I feel this freezing fire
And now I so desire
To turn everything around
Why were you such a liar
Now I am in denial
I almost want to die here
As everything you said resounds

As we hea

AbscondWhen you are born
You are warned
Not to venture out
To explore the world's doubts
To conform to routine

So you abscond your soul
Trading gold for coal
True thoughts cower
Like a young flower
In the garden of society

As you grow old
You remain in the mold
Set out by strangers
Originality in danger
In a prison of clones.

And you dance with Death
Take your last breath
You realise life
Is to be lived with strife
So once you are gone
You can be free to move on.

AngelI will give you wings,
to flyaway
I will give you hope,
to stop crying
I will give you all my love,
to stop your pain

Spread your wings and flyaway
escape your misery

You don't deserve this

Just forget the sweet and bitter

Hold on to love,
It will save you from this

Your wings are stained with lies from others

Forget the memories
The help is on the way.

Goodbye?I can see it coming
Your inevitable shatter
I can hear it coming
The words that you fear to utter

I can feel it breaking
That heart you pretend doesn't exist
I can hear it falling
The tear you struggle to dismiss

Now in my hands
Our fate reluctantly rests
And here in my hands
My decisions are put to the test..

All My Life...I've either felt like I'm just starting to crack
Or totally broken
Never once have I felt fixed
Never once have I felt I will ever be

Am I really Alone?Am I really alone?
When i stare into the mirror
What do I see?
Is it really no one
When its just me?
Am I really alone?
When walking down the street
What do I see?
An image in the store glass
And its me,
Looking back at me.
Am I really alone?
When I curl up in my bed,
What do I see?
What do I feel,
When all have around me is just me?
Am I really alone?
Am I truly alone?
When I know, that
I will always have.. Me.

Past To PresentPast To Present:

Isn't it weird?
The bad things that happen.
Can turn into good.
I was hurt from the start.
You founded my heart.
A past so brutal.
Making life crucial.
Though I know with you.
I will no longer feel blue.
The past long passed.
Present still with holds.
What I know today.
Is from here on out.
Never looking back.
For dreams are pleasant.
From Past To Present.

Beautiful Life

Beautiful Life:

Through all it's journey.
Many lose way.
For which they lay.
The thoughts of the mind.
End with time.
Though, this your life.
Of endless dreams.
Flow your way.
I am here to say.
Come to the bay.
This sunset is endless.
With time itself.
In others eyes,
May not see.
What they have at all.
But with one call,
I am here with you.
The one I love.
My marvelous Wife,
Beautiful Life.
