afraid (Remove filter)
Hoping she holds her breath
Agitation eats at my chest due to my un-feathered yearning for this person, she cannot begin to think about what she wants other than the bare necessity of breathing.
               Which implores me to wish she didn’t need to breathe, selfishly, so that I can then be an option for her. I'm sure another necessity would take sprout.
I’m not sure who is the root of the problem. A possible s...

Metamorphous
You’re right
3 years ago, I viewed frogs as aliens
Now I wonder whether they’re angels
Months ago, I hated the sound of songbirds
Now I write their songs
I tweet along
Everything I did, I did do
It still was
Even if it no longer is
Whatever I am
I still am what I was
Even if I no longer am
You’re right
I was right and now I’m left
But the person I was hasn...

Grinding
These violent delights have violent ends,
Come close and kiss me hard again,
Will I stay? It depends,
If after the sacred act,
I can stay upon my back,
Nestled in an unknown arm,
and tell my heart I mean no harm,
For is this sweat or are they my tears?
I've forgotten your name I quietly fear,
But really it doesn't matter,
When you live your life served upon a platter,

April First
Â
No more fools again on AprilÂ
It was last lies to believeÂ
Complicated!!, Why not simple?Â
Take it easy, or should leaveÂ
Â
If someone forces to trustÂ
That one puts others in doubtingÂ
When the truth appear very fastÂ
That one is afraid or hidingÂ
Â
We should only pray to GodÂ
God will keep hearts more faithfulÂ
When the purity clean the bloodÂ
Surely life will be more...

Who are the real Monsters?
Isn't imprisonment enough?
Without the guards being too rough
And forever being cuffed
Prisoners are abused and raped
Every damn single day
As if they haven't already paid
By being held captive and afraid.
Â
Isn't imprisonment enough?
Without being forced to confess
To somebody else's mess
Being stripped and undressed
Every damn single day
As if they haven't already paid
By bein...

Weakness and sorrow
I am always second guessing myself
hiding my shame and health
Never knowing what to doÂ
If i could only open up to you
It's scary the thing's i thinkÂ
always contemplating drink
the level of stress is unbearable
It makes me depressed and feel terrible

I cant run away from it
I won't run away from it
No matter how deep the shit
I swear that I'll never quit
I'll be here til the end of it
Skin that is bruising
Scars I'm not loosingÂ
A time in my life where all I've seen abusing
Whip me, break me, beat me until I'm oozing
I'll still get up
Its my life your not choosing.
I make the choice to stay and endure
I make the choice because she is so pure
I'll take...

Feathers at the altar roses draw near my cage
Flamable is love, its scent has no age
I fear not flying but remaining at this stage.
I ponder about the joy of escaping feels like but I still remain the same.
A perpetual moonlight filled with stars, dreams and hopes.
I want to escape and be with you buy my heart is vain
Laconic i am with you in sight, never able to scatter light on...

In the beginning
In the beginning he would wake at every peculiar sound that came from the babies cribÂ
In the beginning he would bring me a beverage as I fed his son whilst the moon was dimly litÂ
In the beginning he would rush home from work eager to see the family he createdÂ
In the beginning we were the people whom he could be himself and escape withÂ
In the beginning we were enoughÂ
Â
He wou...

Guarded Walls
Unguarded
Bombarded
Quick! Hurry!
Retreat!
Before she sees
Build up a wall
Be careful not to fall
Its just too much to bare
Yes, I know its unfair
But I can't
I just.....
I can't!Â
If I were to take a wrong turn
If I were to get burned
I don't think I could go on
See, I thought I had the one
Really, truly
She hurt me brutally
I could have sworn...

I guess I'm afraid to love you
I put on my mask when I woke up in the morning.
The silent grins and the innocent eyes.
Filtering the truth I feared could dry the sea,
I smiled and laughed, they thought I never cry.
Through the reflection, I saw myself.
I stared at those eyes and sometimes I don’t know who it was.
My heart would’ve repel itself from this body, if it has the chance to succeed.
Like a bir...

Afraid Of The Dark
Afraid Of The Dark
what you can’t see
cannot hurt you
ghouls and ghosts
things of the dark
things you don’t understand.
close your eyes go to sleep
think of happy things and places
let your mind move on
be at peace child
the thing that scratches at the window
you know it’s just a branch
the creak of a floorboard
late at night
a cold chill that drifts
through a warm house
the un...
