Rejecting fate
At what point did the world beyond my fingertips stop breathing?
I don’t remember when I committed such a crime as killing. I only remember burning the pages to an ink filled book, crying into the flames.
I ended my lifelong passion and allowed the emptiness to consume me.
Since then it has been so dark.
Words are but a mystery to me, no longer do they bleed from
the flesh.
Instead they hide...

Solitude
So gently would the wind caress my writers hand
My only friends are words written on tear soaked pages
They hear my cries, my laughter and all of my untold stories.
In a world that craves attention I melt into the silence
Engulfed by waves of loneliness
Not always do I prefer it this way, but at least I never feel the stab of rejection carving into me.

Death of a Poet.
I tried to inspire myself enough to write something witty
It was no use
my brain was bone dry-robbed of any and every idea brave enough to make its way to the page
I wondered if this madness would ever end or if i should continue on the path of barreness
I felt empty and the air refused to fill my lungs
At some point the words will find me or I will die trying to write.

Rot.
It made sense of course
To bleed after you’ve fallen down
But I never fell
I simply basked in the pain and torment that left me rotting beneath the moon
It ate me alive- All that I felt and all that I didn’t
I was drained of all things
Good and bad
Especially love
Entirely hollow from the inside out
And now I believe I must die
On this frozen December ground
With m...

My Inner child still screams
I remember parts of my childhood and feel ashamed
Or possibly its not the shame that I feel, but a sense of loss, grief, a slight wish I could go back there- just for a moment, to prove it all in fact was more than just a fever dream.
To fix the broken pieces of myself that I never should have lost in the first place.
But I can't
I must leave the past how it is and feel the tears pour down my...

Failure
How cruel one must be to become well acquainted with suffering and still inflict pain upon
another
Perhaps my heart is so frozen I forgot how to act.
I am cold and distant, full of disdain and heartache.
A lifetime of resentment runs through these veins
Yet it’s me who bares the ache of caring-but careless in many attempts
The salt of life is but a bitter taste of irony
And so...
