Late
| Love is deep as the road is long.
With every breath I live the day do what I can, this is where it begins.
Nobody knows how the story ends.
Moments pass live moving cars on the freeway all trying to get back home.
Look back not to the darkness threw the door. We set out so long ago.
Move my feet to carry on but it beats my heart when you are gone.
Freedom once grace...

Done
I'm Done
Why am I constantly the toy
of a man child's eye?
Then supposed men tell me,
I need someone like them?!
Something doesn't make sense...
Maybe it's me...

How do you know?
How do you know if time is being wasted?
Drifting so far away from the honesty that the honesty becomes a lie,
How do you know if it's what's meant to be, if im with you and he's not with me?
They say time you enjoy wasting, isn't wasted time,
But does that apply when you've got your enjoyment, and I've lost mine?
How do you know what's meant to be?
I'm with you, and he's no...

The Snake
The snake
It slithers around me
Putting on a show
As if I'm in control
But little do I know
It's charming me
Hypnotized
I give myself over
Allowing the fangs
To pierce my flesh
The venom
Paralyzing me
Smiling proud
At the feat
Begins the retreat
Into the grass
Disappearing
From my vision
I thought this
This was the test
To ...

Becoming
Becoming
Being
Not quite what I was
Not even who I want to be
Not recognizing who I am
Can't go back to who I was
Can't get to who I want to be
Can't figure out who I am
The past kicked me out
But my future won't let me in
And my present won't give me rest
Trying to let go of her
Trying to become the better she
Trying to find the present me
I escaped the m...

Post Traumatic Religion Disorder
PTRD - Post Traumatic Religious Disorder. Confessions of a confused believer who’s not sure what to believe. Highs, lows, anxiety, depression, suppression, and all that in between.

Down, dismayed, and subdued ...

Confusion
CONFUSION
Even though the sun is shining I feel the Rain/
Even though I´m numb I feel the Pain
Even though nothing´s wrong everything feels not Right/
Even though there is no darkness I see no Light
Void and Chaos fill my Mind/
I see everything and I´m still Blind
My mind and my Heart keep getting Bruised/
I know nothing but I know I´m Confused

Pretzel
unravel it all
feel the moments
the bliss
the bitterness
the salty sweet combo that tantalizes the palate
its part of this puddle life
the snow isn’t ready to melt and neither am I
I just embrace it all
The frozen fear
the frigid fog
clouded in mystery and madness
Im never clear
I was never here
Secrets swallow me whole
Time to come clean
Listen as I scream
profess my dreams...

Emotional Prostitute
Every heart wants somethings thats harder to get
Like looking for that rainbow in the desert
Or the dry spot in the rain forest
But no some people are hunters
They prey on your weak emotions while you pray for acceptance
You could stand up for them while they stain your name when your down
That same stain will be seen around town
Looking for love no im just a corner hoe for ...

Jealousys hold
Unhealthy thoughts they form and sworm inside my head, they all are of you and the things you never did or said, guided by jealousy, the short leash tightens on me, I'm wanting it to rip off my head, in bed at night alone, staring at my blank cell phone, the thought what you could be doing fills me with dread, they say trust is a must, I never understood all that fuss, oh I wish these thoughts wou...

At the edge
The blackest of shadows follows me now,
some days the bottle isn't enough.
Sleep no longer free’s me,
it doesn't come in any measure.
Maybe life was blown from me,
when I inhaled the talons of hell, clawing me.
Maybe that last time was one too many
and all this anger comes from that.
All the fucks and all the fists,
all the pretence at domestic bliss.
I wan...

Chatper 18: Overthinking
I think it’s bad when a boy looks at a girl
And thinks that the way he sees the girl
Is better than the way the girl actually is
And I think it’s bad when the most honest way
A boy can look at a girl is through a camera
He doesn’t see me like that
He sees me as something special
And that’s why I had to let him go
He was getting too close for comfort
I'm trying ...

Foreboding
Eyes so dark like drowning in molten mystery
Your stare shatters my resolve
A seraphic touch played its music on my skin
Your hands lead me into danger
A rhythmical voice that unburdens my heart
Your song confuses my mind
A remembered dream that torments my sleep
Your face impregnates the screen
Once my lover now my friend
Your silence screams at me
Betrayal bites the hand that fed...

Sob Story
I’m not sure if anyone feels like this,
Like you wanted to sleep for a thousand years.
Or just not exist,
Or just not be aware that you do exist.
I am Happy.
I as Sad.
And I can’t still figure out why.
It's so strange because sometimes,
I think you need both to find peace
Like light and dark,
One can not exist without the other.
It’s much easier not to know things sometimes.
Not knowin...

CROSSROAD
Along the long and winding road
You’ll reach a spot where paths will cross
There you know not where to go
For either leads to unfamiliar ground
You’ll never know where they may lead
Unless you choose to follow it
But know that you may never know
Where the other could have taken you.

Riding a Tiger
On face a sham normalcy
the core filled with dread
At a very cusp of no return
can’t help but forge ahead
All deemed plain pushover
how it ended up otherwise
None other there to fault
since caught in own devise
Those efforts painstaking
a well thought over intent
Ended in such an imbroglio
that no one could prevent
Resources all...

sleep the sleep that hate permits
I fail at sleeping
in a show of unconditional accusation, the reproachful slander of your hereafter,
amongst the placid hours,
I try to be the grand man, but I shake too much
unhinged by the overreach of my skeletal height
much to the delight of every unskilled whistler
tough love and rougher hate interprets the shuddering motions, as my left hand lingers
over a poss...

The Jagged Edge of Love
This must be my longest night
the moon laying its heavy light right down
this room swims in so much gossiping
conversations; always imagined and impossible
This must be my longest night
the blurred echoes of all we did ring ‘round
there’s no sleep to be had, just counting stars
and scenes replaying; rose or shit tinted now
I found the jagged edge of love
it cut right across my heaving...

Blood thief
There’s a floor called race and a home called blood,
it can be what forms you.
It can be what clothes you, what warms you as it flows through your body,
a rich honey providing brotherhood, relation, family and love -
bonds of pride which cartwheel through your body.
I have a mystery and in my father lies the clues.
I had droplets of speciality, uniqueness, distinction, excitement...

Piecing of the Broken Heart
Fragments of my heart began to scatter like narrowed tears,
Foraging the pieces to corrade together, 'till the very near.
I frech as I hear the boastful brontides approach
Agonously attempting to grasp on to my unconvienent hopes.
My eyes are discerpted, bleeding tears of remorse
Time had fleered me from its natural habitat
Balefully, it mocked my optimistic ways
Pirating...

21 gallons
21 gallons to Kristiansund
here I can piss like a journeyman
with the eloquence
of a tattooed scream a
cast-off, sport smart, council queen
21 gallons to Kristiansund
I don’t understand
21 gallons to Kristiansund
21 gallons to Kristiansund
here I find myself worthy of an unequal lack
of an outcasts working weekend chance
with a mind fumed on zero
none shall...

Knowing Souls
Implied persuasion,
By three knowing souls
Left a vision of what could have been.
A momentary relapse,
Like Lady Macbeth, blinded
Misguided, bitter raged
Baby beaten on her breast.
Innocent youth taken
Shaken by protector.
No milk of human kindness,
To be sweetened, swallowed
Just a poisoned evil that is given at first breath.
An undone deat...

Wait For The Flag To Unfurl
And you claim all your words are true
Then you run from me, saying 'Set me Free'
Such confusion is brought through you
Without such strife if incomplete
Dont play these games no more with me
Far better I'm left to rot here in solitary
And its ...

Beholder's Eyes
Take a look into my eyes,
And maybe we will find
that between you and me
It's the way that love should be.
She told me I had beautiful eyes
her heart said friends
and her mouth did too...
and my mind's confused now I'm not with you.
See I can be the best friend that I have been for years
or I can be the guy that can hold you near.
But I can't be this.
You said you don...

Fences
Gently you trace the tear
down my cheek
my pain mirrored
in the confusion in your eyes
not understanding what you’ve done
again
still
but wanting to
Words like barriers between us
we take turns offering apologies
reassurances
arms pulling each other close
losing myself
in your warm hard body against mine
as we both try to deny
the fences between us

Growing old apart
Her restless heart won't slow
untamed and on edge
this is where he told her to meet him
after the curtain fell
she took it badly,
startled glances in the rear-view mirror -
disappointment.
Her mistake.
Nothing to see here.
Parchment skin,
lips tightly pursed
pale and wan
she lifts a trembling finger to the map
tracing every single batt...

You confuse me
One minute you hate my guts
or so it seems, you drive me nuts
I can't keep up, you're a right head-fuck
and you can't even see it.
You confuse me.
You don't acknowledge me when I speak
yet the following week you're all over me
like a rash, you make me itch,
it's a pain in the arse and I'll never get it.
You confuse me.
You can make...
