I am a desert and you are a tsunami and god I am ******* craving what will never exist.
{by HALSEY}
i wondered if there was a word
for the sudden melancholy you get
when you think of a distant memory
as if there's gaping hole in your chest
the sudden feeling of loss for something
that was never quite yours - for someone that was never yours

i found myself whispering your name
no surprise
art
i had no clue about art
but i knew a thing or two
from just looking at you
We lose so much talent to addiction
Some of you may not care, but I do
This is my tribute to them

We are not bad people, we just have bad ways
Yet, not many understand
Have love in your heart for all
We are all one in the same
love it is a lovely thing that we can give away
to each and everyone each and everyday
something to be shared something we can give
a little piece of love can help the world to live
all around the universe in each and every place
owned by everybody in the  human race
a very special thing a gift that we all share
deep inside your heart love is always there
I live beyond morality, cloudy
Skies issue complaints, however
I hardly have the time.

I often catch myself
Staring at creatures.
Wondering where they
Wander, and why.

I want to fight dragons today.
I want to find a voice
That suits me. Grey skies
And frozen cranes, bother me.

The stone wet, and
Broken. Lifeless creatures
Can be neither evil nor
Wealthy.

Broken Binaries. Broken
Machines. What glues
Our heads to our
Bodies?

Is there a separation?

Voices
Walk down the hall and
Interrupt my view
Through the window.

Focusing again I see
Opaque. Unable to
Look past the glass.
Only up to it.
O, Earth! O, Heavens!
Do you have any ear?
My mind is ailing,
My heart is sick,
In me I've great fear!

O, Stars! O, Constellations!
Do have any eye?
My body is weak,
My stomach is turning,
All I do is cry!

O, Seas! O, Oceans!
Do you have any hand?
My mind is ailing,
My heart is sick,
Why can't you help, if you're so grand?
