Heart Beats
Barely a sound
Dust in the wind
The moons gone dark
Smashed into
Pieces a killer for hire
Bullets
With butterfly wings
Tears fill my soul
Ring around the sun
Haven’t I mourned enough
Discrepancies a plenty
Divine intervention show face
Unresolved torment
Why does the dark
Wear me like a coat
Fill the voids
I can’t seem to fill myself
Be my everlasting hope
Wings of gold
Wanting to live
And waiting on yourself
There’s a big difference
It could be a while
They are two different
Ends of the stick
Spectrums a must
Infinite energy in abundant supply
Healing
Is what I desire the most
My quiet reverie swoop me up
Light of light
My halo of hope
I cling too
It’s far to easy
To turn your back
On yourself
Fall into the trap of the enemy
Yet no matter how
Destructive I’ve been
You’ve been the one constant
My fortress and rock
Blind to the simple fact that
I can’t be fully alive without your grace
I’ll never take you for granted
All I want is to be by your side one day
My grandeur

Hovering above
If one things
For certain
The wind beneath
My sails
Has kept me afloat
Galaxy of beauty
A beacon of light
Reign down
On me some more
Plant your seed in me permanently
Shadows dissolving
Aching
From point
A to point B
Not anymore
A shifting state
High Jack Heaven
And drop it in my lap
Leave hell alone
A token splendor
Magic carpet ride
My eternal ascension
One day
This is only temporary
It will not house you forever
Unlock the possibilities
You’ll never leave me
Never forsake me
Your soul will be revived
I promise
Words kept inside
That never made it to the light
Because I never really
Knew how to express myself clearly
I felt a little bit off
But you always knew  
What I was feeling
Yet not once you held that against me
My pentagrams light up
Thee night sky’s
As I climb skyscrapers
To get to you
Till the dawn of a new day comes
Home one day I will be housed
And protected from this wicked world
And all the evil that comes with it

Sacrificing
My well being
Roll of the dice
Stoic to a degree
A heavy price
Was paid
Misplaced pictures
Passing time
Never put my mind at ease
My youth
And all between
Wildfires wiped
Me out
Waking up
Became such a heavy burden
For thee
Longest time
I was far from okay
Yet no one knew
Just how badly I was hurting
Inside but me
Holding on for dear life
You held me together
The pain
Piled up tell it overflowed
Guess it had to go
Somewhere after
The dam finally burst
The nap sack I carried
Around outweighed anything
You could ever imagine
Or ever want to experience
First hand
But eventually the past
Washed away into another tributary
And my life raft took me a shore
To better days I wouldn’t trade for anything

White noises
Mirrors on
Thee walls
Hindsight’s
Twenty twenty
Illuminate my soul
And let me breathe
Erasing the
Flesh and bone
Levitating my spirit to
A higher ground
Putting a bandage on
Wounds that never healed properly
Only crippled me
Erasing my wavering
Subconsciousness
If only I could
Walk on water
Let alone on my own two feet
The simplest
Things that got
Me through
The toughest years of my life
I used to
Stair right through
My own reflection
Like there was a hole
To nowhere
Straight through my soul
Life would glare repeatedly
Will it ever be found in time
What could ever put it back
Together again
Only you
My shadow guided me
Like an evil twin
Attached at birth
But now I’ve evolved and
Broken free
Been transformed
Into a new being
I no longer hesitate to
To just be me regardless of
My circumstances
Knowing my state of mind
Will never define me as a whole

Blessings that
Never came gift wrapped
Screeching sounds
Syllables overlap
Often superimposed
My being
Create and replace
Resolve a face without
Meaning
Switching places would
Have been all so grand
Petrified forests
I ran through
The thorns on my sides still sting
My tumultuous depths
Only widened thee longer I ran
In place
Tears filled
The air I breathed
My hero
Is someone I’ve never
Met let alone seen
With my own eyes
Luxuries taken
For granted
Selfish desires only
Led me into addiction
Self medicating astray
Sitting alone on my perch
If perfection
Was a currency
I’d be broke
Life hasn’t always
Painted the prettiest of pictures
Just give me my
Spoken word and a playlist
Of my choice
And sky’s the limit
What might come out
Because these are the
Only real truths I have
These are not made up stories
Sugar coated
With pixie dust
About how the grass is
Always greener on the other side
Because my dilemmas have
Always told me different story

Supernova
Seeping in your deep haze
When will I rise above
Repenting
In a room full of angels
Where have your
Wings gone so calloused
You are
How deep does
The rabbit hole go
Free of mind
Bleed out my thoughts
Three strikes
Your out
Like a cat with nine lives
No more left
Purge this dungeon
The cruelty in vain
A fabricated version
I’m tired of watching
Shed this skin
Ecdysis my soul
Like a snake
And give me a new coat
One day
My soul will rejoice
The passive aggressiveness
Will falter to smoke
Confessions of
A man who feels more then he should
Too much I overthink
I pray for
My wrong doings and transgressions
Forged in fire
They turned me against my will
Just thee
Tip of the iceberg
Time for a mic drop
A more inviting stage
Extraordinary forces excelled
Against me exceeded my expectations
A pain threshold
With no bounds
What a living object can withstand
Before he finally breaks
The unlimited obstacles
Unhinged toxins of this life  
I’m long overdue rundown like timber
In need of my absolution indeed
