Poetry comes back into my life, full circle, every time I'm squared by trials and tribulations I so desperately need to conquer. Regardless of two shins bruised by a maddening search for peace and tranquility through a field of burning coal, I anticipate the relief I'll feel as soon as I take that first step...

Forgiving Myself
Squared up against a circle of people who I can only move forward from. Controlling my emotions are a must as I pray that my life doesn't spiral into a tornado of bitterness and hate without a single ounce of purpose to fill the void inside of my heart. Yet, even if I've acted more... Continue Reading →
Blank Pictures
Blank…Maybe,That's why it's been hard to put ink onto paper.Nothing in my mind.Just,Thoughts floating through my head while I close my eyes and,Feel the chaos it brings.Left asking myself,What am I here for?To,Endure pain until I'm finally able to dream again?Dream a life where I can bare the sting of wounds I've inflicted on myself…Tell...

Red Ocean (2013)
Blood streams down the inside of these eyelids,Coated with soiled tissue paper,Ripped clothing and a half chicken rowing down the reddened sea of thought,Picturing every red light down the street bringing these feet to a stop,Reminding me of where I first began at the shore of this garbage-ridden ocean... Red,The color that triggers the bull,The... Continue Reading →
He’s Back. I Promise.
Feels good to feel like my old self again, even if it's just a portion of who I used to be. Hopefully, for those who've wondered where I've been, my heart can stay in one piece as I gather every other bit of it missing. Please, pardon my absence! With a life ridden by addictions...

Less Is More
An abundance of power found in my departure from a home I was never part of.Apart from having no one by my side,I've never really been alone the more I looked up as a means of catharsis.Been down for quite a while now,Bar none,But,I rose from the inner depths of a Hell only mutilated souls...

Leaves Of Peace (Repost)
Finally!Finally,Finally.Surrounded by the kind of nature that loves to tell a story.Leaves of paper bound to a spine strong enough to endure what broke mine.Reminders of what life can be like if I just,Walk away from what wants to efface my existence on a planet I’ve grown weary of.All I wonder is,What’s next?While my hands...

Want To Die? So What…
Who am I to ever feel suicidal as I live a life I have dared not to live?Who am I to cry the Lord's name for my salvation when,I have been way too selfish and ungrateful to give?Just,A nobody with a dream I stopped cultivating with pure love when love became lost for me!A leech...

Always Did, Always Will
"What worked yesterday won't work today,"Is what is said,But,Do I believe it?Not the slightest.Because,When I read my bit of history throughout this turbulent week of mine,I notice one similarity in every single timeline I've bothered to explore.How the lord has worked his magic ever since the beginning of time was simply,Born.One soul saved after the...

To Whom I May Marry One Day
She speaks in Poetry,Coercing me to smile often…A grin I've left in a coffin,While I rest,Every night,Hoping God would defrost this…Ice block he placed exactly where my heart is… Numb to Emotion,I've been,As I lie in another's deceit.But,She makes me feel again,When she recommends,My hands to wrap around her waist and release,All the tension that's...
