"I coin a phrase, For me to change, And pay for my sinz…" – m3l0dic
Regrets...What's the point of regretting what had to happen for you to learn your lesson?Would you be where you are now if it wasn't for each mistake set in place,By the inner child in your chest,Urging you to exit,The path you were destined to die in?I don't think so...The wind blows,Where you run towards.Trees are...

A bird who fell from a nest on a tree as high as the sin humans keep,On a pedestal most desire to fill in with shimmering gold.A bird learning to flap its wings by itself as the hurricane becomes stronger,And,Stronger.A bird who flies away from any flock it comes across for the kind of solace...

Politics are nothing,But,A sham used to divide us in ways so unnatural to the human heart.Yet,Most of us feed into it knowing love is what we're hungry for.Sometimes I wonder,Why can't we conserve our energy,Play our favorite demo tapes,And,Dance together celebrating our independence?Our ability to wake up,And,Choose unity rather than a reason to shame another...

Anytime my card is pulled,It feels like the Joker is drawn in a game of poker I've never agreed to play.Can I trust the smile I see when taking notice of anyone's face,In a room as dark as the empty voids most carry in a soul where light wanes,More,And,More as each day passes by?A day...

Hi,Grandma!It's your grandson checking in.Lately,I haven't had many people I can speak to while I keep steady with,A palm shaking as I write poem,After poem,While my mind goes blank worrying for the readiness,I must prepare for when heading into a room full of people I don't want to see.Forgive me,But,That includes the family you've built.I...

"Somewhere in the world,There's at least one person who doesn't know they'll have one less finger by the end of the weekend!"Is what I read on a post made on social media,Rising up my level of anticipation for this year's July fourth festivities.Not for the potential loss of a knuckle,Or,Two,But,For brighter lights I haven't seen...

Romance died the moment self-love was introduced.Never heard of it once as a young gun possessing a mind fully loaded with an itch to shoot,Off from a mouth as dicey as a gamble,Full of loot we bounce wall to wall for.The drive we wake up with is driven off course,For what we can gain to...

Dejected,Rejected.Whichever adjective you pick,They'll both work the same.As I isolate from a world causing the kind of pain most don't come back from,Here I am,Alone in a daze.But,Not the kind where I'd hide behind a tree underneath some shade.The kind where you separate from a world,Taking refuge under God's palm while phased,By flesh calling for...

Mondays.How mundane they can be.Yet,Their importance weighs heavy,As the start of a week where you get to decide to let it all go,Or,Continue carrying what's making your knees buckle,And,Buckle.Trembling with each step taken forward,Towards a jungle too dark for one to foresee the outcome of their journey through.What Monday truly is,Is your chance to break...

An empty gas tank tends to form me into a languid bibliotaph uninterested in reading any stort falling into my lap,Too weak to bear the weight of.It isn't like it was years ago,Where I'd fight in urgency when dealing with an energy bar running low.Nowadays,I'd rather put my controller down,Accept my losses,And,See what tomorrow brings...
