Paralyzed

The words phrased-
I become stone

The wounds made-
I abandon hope

I shatter inside-
None left behind

Your voice incites-
I'm left...petrified
-
_{I nurtured the very core}
_{Of your presence}
_{Until I couldn't anymore}
_{You left me in a cold silence}

_{I had nothing to cling on to}
_{While I tried over and over to mourn}
_{But there was no trace of you}
_{So my regrets were torn and then reborn}

_{Your footprints mock / My voice locks}
_{Infesting my thoughts / My heart floods}

_{An infinite loop of forgiveness and betrayal}
_{I couldn't pick up the pieces of our memories}
_{The knife in my back could only tremble}
_{While I felt tremors attack my body}

_{I trusted you with everything}
_{I gave you every ounce of my passion}
_{Now all I have to show for it is nothing}
_{I can't even comprehend these repercussions}
-
The tears cascade-
I drown within

The scars parade-
The memory singed

My mind divides-
Reasons remain unjustified

Your countless lies-
Leave me...paralyzed

Patient

Patient My dilated pupils disperse- Red lights spell out: Emergency What version of me have they unearthed? Forever fucking questioning me “Sir, how much alcohol have you consumed?” (Just lock me away in a padded room) “How many pills did you take?” (Not enough for fuck sake) “So, how long have you been suicidal?” (Oh, just every once in a while when I fake a smile) “What provoked you to try and take your life tonight?” (Once upon a time: I used to be...alright) - It's as if time has been removed- And motion is nonexistent Invisible voices echo and bloom- I'm at home, in solitary confinemen

Far sight

I smudge my eyes across the waters So I can reflect the sky's desires Even when the clouds express oppression I will still catch heaven's raindrops of desperation - Just remember that I have left none behind But I may come and go- within the universal tides I have no specific place to call home I am not crowded, nor am I alone For I will forever flow Within light, and within shadow My warmth will still cascade from the sun Surrounding you when you're feeling flawed I have left my scent on the wind / To help you remember that I still exist My embrace is in the Earth / My love for you will always be preserved My presence will still radiat

Love Again

Love Again I hate to admit- That I don't stand a chance All risks turn into rifts- Our hands will become too...distant - I crumbled inside every time I tried- I couldn't look you in the eyes A reflection was all I saw- The beast within me whose heart was still raw I'm afraid that trust is a one-way street with me You can only depend on your own For I have deemed myself unworthy While I cling onto the tombstones of massacred hopes I've abandoned the part of my soul That connected to others I was forced to let that side of me go So never again would I fully mourn for another A sphere of tears- Floods my sockets with fear Knowing that- Eve

Wish Upon A Scar

Wish Upon A Scar Shades of words can strengthen...walls But embodiments of lies can flaw the very same...cause - A droplet of water lasted me a thousand ages For I have traveled inside my mind I documented a thousand faces That ended up turning blind eyes The lifeblood of faith kept urging me to wait While I became a statue deprived of light and the life I once called mine Numb sounds flow / Passions let go Clinging onto footprints / A coward's instinct Uncensored immunity is a curse For tragedy teaches weakness Nothing will be of any worth As love and fear will be without consequences Once upon a song / You were a flower Your petals be

Downfall

And in this dark harvest of season My life has completely lost reason, For which or against to decide. All lost in a savage and endless, bleak tide In sadness and in kindness In light and in darkness. In a boat made of hope I shall sail to tomorrow, In a winding hurricane Made of treachery and sorrow. There's a spear, endless, and colossal spear... Piercing, slashing though my head. Starting somewhere in heaven, Ending somewhere in hell. Fighting, burning, crying, crashing. Are the armies within. In my head they are all thrashing. On the heaven's and hell's whim. To be light or to be darkness. A perpetual array. It's not merely my choi

I Feel Your Absence

We will not be sharing a kiss tonight And no one else’s lips will ever do Patience is a virtue, not a hindrance It will be a pleasure waiting for you Though I’m in love with your body and soul And dream of a shared passion between us I’ll wait to hear your body sing my name There can indeed be innocence in lust Alas, I cannot dance with you tonight As we find ourselves many miles apart But still you dance around my cluttered mind Quickstep to the beat of my hollow heart Though I’m in love with your past and present I shall slowly remove the hurt and hate Replacing it with a loving future In accordance with my belie

I Have The Letters.

I have the letters, I just can't find the words. According to the Oxford dictionary there are 171,476 words in the English language currently in use. You'd think out of 171,476 words, thousands of songs and endless quotes, and whatever else it is that people use nowadays to get the point across; I could find the means to put a simple sentence together. I hate those days. The days when the words have no flow. There is no rhythm, no rhyme. Just an endless thought process, jumbled and unable to make any sense of things. I don't understand. Words have always been easy. I've never been at a loss of what to say. And when I can't create my own, th

The old man in the park

There's an old man sitting on a bench in the park. A scruffy dog by his feet, on his lips a witty remark. Not a tooth in his mouth, but he smiles anyway. And if you ask him why, this is what he will say: “I have a song in my head, and a smile on my face. I have lived a full life of both sorrow and grace. I have love so plenty, and stories to share. And I live my life without a worry or care.” His wrinkles are a map of a long, lasting life. Of hard work, three sons, and a now deceased wife. His hearing may be bad, and his vision turning grey. But if you ask him, this is what he will say: “I have seen my share of wonders

To the Lonely

To those who choose loneliness To support their pride May you someday have Nothing left to hide To those who prefer solitude To loss and broken heart May you someday learn that love may hurt But is a healing art To those who choose to stand above The mass of false affection May you someday be held close by one With a real, sincere connection To those who choose independence Over leaning on a lover Or a friend, or a brother May you one day bear a burden That alone you cannot bear And give the ones who love you most A chance to show they care To those who are rejected But cannot seek love anew May you realize there is someo
