Anxiety is a loaded gun. Once provoked, you **** the gun.
Your emotions crescendo as you pace the floor with your finger on the trigger.
You anticipate the moment you have the chance to pull it.
As pressure builds the tension rises, building and gathering.
POP!
A flash of light as your anger is released.
Your stress has reached its ******.
That split second can influence the rest of your life.
The trigger has been pulled.
You feel a sense of exhilaration.
Energy is finally released.
The ammo hurdles out at untamable speeds, obliterating everything in its path.
The damage is done, and can’t be taken back.
Hurting yourself is the least of your worries as you start to see the pain you've inflicted on others.
The recoil leaves you tender and vulnerable, Open to the repercussions.
Even after all has calmed the smoke will linger on as a horrific memory of an unforgettable scene of mayhem.
As you try to fix the wounds of others you notice yours start to weaken and worsen.
How could you let such a doltish petty thing effect the life of you and the lives of others?

the trees are shedding
their dead leafs
but the dead parts of me
are only blossoming
deeper into my veins
soon,
the ugliest memories
will be all that i have left
like a tree full of dead leafs
that just won't ******* let
go of their branches
jesus christ
won't someone shake
them free...
oh
won't someone shake
this pain away from me
so that i will have the room
to grow untainted beauty
freshly from my core
*i just need some space to start over
When I see the roaches crawling,
the disgust can be hidden by fascination and understanding.
Besides,
they clean themselves after touching our skin.

I have been through things many have not and yet I still feel like nothing more than a boy walking alone down a hallway filled with people who know exactly what they want.
I think that this hallway is not meant for me and yet all the doors lead to classrooms that teach lessons proven wrong long ago.

"Come with me and I will show you something more than this, just be careful where you tread because the fire I hold does not give off much light."

I am not a broken boy by any means and I love with all of my heart.
If only I knew in which direction to send my love.
I am ******* and I want to ****.
I think this clouds my judgement and the walls around me turn into film that plays an image not yet created.


I am so confused when the world is going east when I am going west.

If you think I have forgotten you, there is a grave mistake...

A lesson I have learned is I'm a burden when I burn.
The ones I hurt stay close inside and I become a sin to hide.

Please don't run away because my bones are weary and I couldn't begin to chase.
Let me whisper something secret and that smile will pour across your face.


I hide for now, but I'm still me...
I promise.
Remember When

I remember when our friendship began
We felt free, like Jane and Tarzan

So many smiles, so much laughter
Our friendship grew even closer

We chatted and talked for hours
Never before experienced a friendship like ours

Remember when the friendship turned to love?
Was this from above?

We laughed, cried, & loved together
We questioned and sometimes no answer

Days, months, & now even almost a year has gone by
Sometimes we ask ourselves why

We have shared so much & grown so close
Will we ever be together, no one knows

We hang on to hope & the memory
For the future no one can foresee

Friends can make awesome lovers
Deep under the covers

But lovers can never be just a friends
It is much too hard even to pretend

Memories last a life time
I remember when, do you?

trying to keep her alive - alive like she is in my heart
Her Words
 
her words still echo in my mind
I try to push them away
but they return to me every single day

her eyes still sparkle in my dreams
I try to brush them away
but they return to me every single night

her love still has a grip on my heart
I try to set it aside
but it is with me every single moment

her name still rolls off my lips
Perly Sunflower, I try to pretend she doesn't exist
but she is with me in everything I do

her memory still is in my mind
I try to forget
but a tear falls for her every time

I try to forget - but a tear falls for her every time  - I miss her so
Do I

Do I love you much too much
can I live without your touch
is it right to feel
the way I feel about you

Do I mean as much to you
do you feel the same way too
so I ask myself over and over
Do I love you, love you, love you

Without You

I yearn for times gone by so much,
I yearn for your sweet loving touch,
I yearn to have my faith returned to me

I miss those little things  we did,
you laughed and played like a little kid,
when  will my lost smile return you see

my heart is empty, without you in my life,
my days  are so lonely, my nights  are oh so cold,
I pray somehow, someway, my dreams will return,
until then, I'll try to make it thru, without you

I dream of skies  so soft and blue,
but mostly I dream of you,
just trying to find my way thru it all

I rush back home from where I've been,
running  and thinking of you again,
hoping that I have not missed your call  

my heart is empty, without you in my life,
my days  are so lonely, my nights  are oh so cold,
I pray somehow, someway, my dreams will return,
until then, I'll try to make it thru, without you

a song I wrote several years ago - funny - nothing has changed
Ionized

my atoms are being supercharged,
can't tell if that's a positive thing
when my electrons receive a gain,
I have this tendency to dance and sing

particles here and particles there,
paired or not doesn't matter
even or odd is still the same,
hard to stabilize with all the clatter

cosmic dust results from collisions,  
now the protons are taking charge
its the same thing for the molecules,
the small as well as the large

the charging particle is the ion,
can't deny there is an attraction
like the soul of a searching lover,
reaching for it's matching faction

the lips caress the positive,
while the eyes seek out connection
life from the past, life from the future,
once again brought into the collection

sparkling kisses in the comets tail,
the fiery head's mission realized  
supernova explosions are all around,
good God almighty, I've been ionized
