Tonight look up at the moon. Tell me what you see?
What i saw last night :
Tonight the moon looks like an antique jewel hanging in the night sky. It shines brightly with its golden light softly fading but no succumbing to the dark that encircles it.
The Process of Letting Go
Wounded
I can’t do this.
I’m torn, my stitches don’t hold,
Still I take on more and more.
i know my stitches won’t hold.
so i relax the fingers that have a grasp on this
loosen the grip i’ve feared i’ll miss
and let go.
The Fall (My Next Drug)
what’s my next drug?
the next fall that keeps me going
into a cell i’ve dug
one pit for every groaning.
so i take my next fall
by now i’mma know it all
spinning downwards out of sight
tightly bound and well confined
letting havoc take some time
within the comforts of my drug.
because once i hit the bottom
i know i’ll be just fine
that’s when my bones will turn to dust
or my ashes yield to gusts.
till then who else could i entrust
my life to keep me going?…
The Decay
And then i became an isolated entity
striving to fight against the waves of conformity
consoling the vast rejects
that care not to find strength within themselves.
they look for the command of the weakest
that maneuvers them cleverly to the same end.
Yes there is strength in numbers.
i can feel them pummeling me
the waves pummeling me
eroding me
and my convictions
like rocks smoothed down by a masons hand.
i make the rounds and you keep on
smoothing me down
you’re smoothing me down,
even those i cared about.
I am an isolated entity
i’ll be a part of the wave that erodes me
the others lost their hold
i’m just another decaying slowly.
Three Words Which you Once Said
used and thrown away
3 words which you once said
letting live the pain
leaving me with pain
loving takes some pain
i guess that’s the risk it takes
My Soul’s a Battlefield
short flash battles
within this fragile petite frame.
no need for blood and gore
not for the depths of my core.
paranoia, what plagues my soul
my mind moves to a frantic rhythm
swaying between righteous and prison
i hurt those i fear to love
even those that love to love
