Time flies,

People cry.

Friends drift apart,

People get broken hearts.

Memories will always stay the same,

Even if people change.

You've never seen a mind but you know it exists.
I guess that's the same with faith.

Truth is naked,
Forbidden.
Grossly unwanted.

Truth is naked,
Beautiful.
Strangely charming.

Truth is naked,
Shy.
Horribly amazing.

Truth is naked,
Blunt.
Strangely compelling.

Truth is naked,
And absolutely wonderful.

i would give you
the air out of my lungs
the best taste
stolen from my tongue
all the sunsets i've ever seen
all the places i've ever been
my beating heart
my bulls-eye dart
take my smile
my first born child-

if only you'd take them from me
if only you'd love me

Fighting to stay afloat
Fighting to get a grip
Fighting to stop and catch a breath
Fighting to be me
Fighting to stay alive
Fighting to love
And
Fighting for love

I am fighting for everything in my entire existence and it can't be helped
Because no one sees me
No one understands me
I'm just fighting to be me

My body -  a cage.
My soul - a bird.
Its never forgotten how to fly.
It may be caged for now
but one day it will be free.

Turning handles
Spinning gears
Rotating cogs
Rusted in place
Breathing in
Breathing out
Final breath
It’s all the same
When you stop the motion
Allowing moments to pass
For the very last time
Just something a little different

Thank you for reading

More than Man
Cheers to idle fears and fruitless years

I stand upon my shadow

She traded lies for worthless guys

It goes where ever I go.


She'd give a penny for my two cents;

 my senses oddly smitten.

My shadow leaves no form to follow,

For the darkness leaves it hidden.


Tho' no paths lit, I will not sit.

This void is where I stand

From within our mess of shadows,

She offers me her hand.

Years on
I saw you from across a busy street
and decided to stay unseen
You
Dressed like you always did
Wearing something that must have  Been a smile  
Hand in tiny hand
With a picture of you

I encompassed myself in a cocoon
To envision a transformation
I embodied myself like you
To become something worth gratification
I tasted the wine and I ate the fruit
But it all was a trick
Now they're coming for you
The serpent sleeps well knowing
I fell for the view
Got kicked out the garden
I'm destined for doom

My Star,
They've stolen it from me
Grabbed it,
Robbed it,
Without mercy or respect..
They just took it
Ripped me open and they stole my star
Without my star, the dark will consume me
It will tear into my flesh, fill my resolve
Oh... My dear, please,

I beg you, please bring my Star back...
This is how I feel when my heart is ripped out of me, a heartache undiscribeable. When you stop believing in anything.
