Wendell A Brown Jan 2015
Within us there is a world unseen
Where a young spirit seeks to know
The voice he begins to hear each day
As His passion for life now grows

He will begin to make tough choices
As the voices within become so alive
Leaving him to seriously ponder daily
Which choice might be wrong or right

For everything he attempts each day
Alone with the choices his heart will make
Will deeply affect the life road he chooses
And within his spirit will now be at stake

Inside the voices strive for dominance
Like two hungry wolves over a tasty meal
And with the choices which are made in life
One gives a blessing while the other kills

We must always seek to be very cognizant
Of the choices each day which are made
So when the end time appears in our lives
By the Name of Jesus we are forever saved.
We should become more aware of what might happen because of the choices we make!
As I lay my eyes on you
I start to stutter
Words don't come out right
My brain can't form sentences

The effect you have on me, oh boy...
I'm *******

They don't know
...
why does it bother me,
isn't it better this way;
them not knowing
...
What happened in my past,
it messed me up
BAD
...
Things like that,
they **** people up
...
my life was some what normal,
before then.
but it twisted and shattered
any hopes
that I can be anything
BUT
okay
...
My past.
what it did,
to me.
The effect,
it had.
...
they don't know,
they'd only feel sorry
and give me pity;
if they
knew
what happened
to my life
till I was five
...
I'm
just lucky
to be
ALIVE
I can't focus on the past,
or I couldn't live for the future.
{Because I am wise beyond my years}
Eleanor Rigby Oct 2014
Sometimes losing an appetite
Isn't a syndrome of an illness
It's a side effect
Of losing interest
In life.

A small change at one place

can result in large difference,

and evolve from its original base

in a further state at distance.

For what reason do I bare these arms
if their flick does not fluster
and their embrace does not ease

For what reason do I glance with these eyes
if their concern does not comfort
and their ghost does not give

For what reason do I speak from these lips
if their sweetness does not soften
and their cool does not calm

If my touch leaves no fingerprints
when I press skin to the world
then what is the purpose of my effort?

Or perhaps I do leave marks
a stinging slap
a gouging gaze
a ravenous rip

Then my resolve is of hellish terms
and I am consumed by demons
We
We poets
we love depression.
We don't desire it
we just gravitate towards it.
We seem so naturally fit
we can hardly think of a better couple.

We hate the trap it sets in place
we can't seem to avoid slipping in.
We lack that single, moral strength
we see and crave so much of.

We are obsessed and
we are loners, and
we wouldn't change that if
we could, for it is merely who
we are, who
we end up becoming, not what
we choose to be, simply an effect
we see in the cause of life.

I told him that he should watch the effect his words have on people
And when that wasn't enough,
I said to look for his name in my suicide note
You know who you are.
