Branded deeply
Our hearts beliefs
All the labels
Society heaps
*******, *****
Prodigal Son
Know you're not
The only one

These labels need
Little proven
Psychologically
Scarlet woven
Anxieties and depression
Are certainly fixed
As long as these labels
Upon us stick
...

Just give me
a blindfold
and a cigarette,
or two.
I grew to love people too much,
I forgot how to reciprocate that love.

pain will keep you from living a normal life
what's normal anymore?
pain will make you not want to get out of bed in the morning
pain will make you eager to go to sleep at night
pain will make you wonder if you'll wake up

pain will compromise your confidence in your own sanity
what's sane anymore?
pain will make you cry until your eyes stop working
pain will make you ***** every chance of healing you ever had
pain will take the air from your lungs until you stop breathing

i don't want to be in pain anymore

My words are ***** and I ****** them
forcefully on the page, the staff bends
oh so slightly
                   but still it enters,
what was ****** in now damp with
          a push it gets to experience my love
and I keep on thrusting forward I grab it
penetrating the vacant places that were empty before
          but now I fill it to a content of yearning.
                I
                 finish
                           and then I leave I may use it again but
once I used it, neither was it pure as it once was but I may
call on it from time to time to see if it wants to be used
again, not as before but just a quickie, and then again I'm gone.

Our good books tell us
Christ walked on the water
but that God was brought
to the New World on galleons,
so I ask you, wise ones, teachers
and preachers of History,
how it came to be that the Son
didn't require a boat like the Father,
and how the hell you managed
afterall to get things so backwards
when the soldiers and priests
kissed the the ground and walked
on God's children around them.

The envious money
Though knowest not
Thy power unto mankind
Thou hast caused them
measure their wealth
And divide them
Into groups;
The poorest,
The poor,
The middle class,
The upper class,
and
The filthy rich, elite group,
Which controls the world
On your behalf.
Oh the envious money,
The heavens wish thou existed not
So people will measure their wealth
According to their happiness.

No
I didn't stop loving you, I just started loving me...
(I)

Pale mulberry was the sky,
No bird dared to fly!
Thus all seemed wrong,
But then, you came along
Suddenly like summer rain
And quelled away my pain.

(II)

Velvet blue was the sky,
No bird dared not to fly!
Thus all seemed right,
And as pure as a cloud in white,
When suddenly like the rainbow,
You quelled away thy heavenly glow.

(III)

Dark grey is the sky,
No bird seems to ever fly!
Athwart my wild blue yonder
Where I, indignantly do ponder
Night and day wondering why,
We can't give it just one more try.

(IV)

Pitch black is always the sky,
But, faster than any bird I'll fly!
Swifter than a scudding cloud
Whilst calling upon you so loud,
All the way to a strange plain,
Just to ever feast about you again.

(V)

Magenta magic will always be the sky,
When once again we'll merilly fly!
Then, flowers once again shall bloom,
To see you and me as bride and groom
By a placid Mulberry Moon on the rise,
To kindle our enchanted paradise.
