Been at the library for the past couple of days,As it gives me a sigh of relief.A sigh of relief from sitting on my bedroom seat,Watching what an algorithm thinks I'm interested in without ever asking me… Just a few years ago,I was standing on my own two feet,On as many stages I can possibly...

Mind In A Blaze – Freewrite #45
Haven't been good in what feels like,An aeon my inner child became too tired to keep on counting.Sick of waking up first thing in the morning doubting what I,Haven't yet attempted.Putting my phone aside to meditate after much needed bed rest.Breathing when I'm feeling anxious about when I need to do the next best thing,And...

What If It Was School? – Freewrite #45
"…Stay in school!" You'll often hear people whisper to themselves when passing by a soul seemingly on its last lightbulb still in tact. But! I have a question that might just blow everybody's mind reading this sentence right now. What if,School is what made them do it? I mean,Everybody's journey down into a rock-bottom (a...

Florescent Gales of Past
Florescent scents from our carousing days,Pervade my nose when thinking of a Rose I've plucked and,Let die.A Rose my heart held as a symbol of love,Now dead because of faith she couldn't see when looking into my watery eyes… And,It took a while to grow past the pain of Her loss,As my sunshine dimmed the...

Dark Knight Coaster
Rollercoaster rides are exhilarating for the first few laps.Flowing through a wind tunnel drying every tear dropping over memories from your recent past.But,Every ride is different,As I'm strapped to a rollercoaster seemingly infinite.With so many loops I have to wrap around,I've gotten sick of making laps allowing for another trip into a damnation I refuse...

Confusion For The Ages
At this point,I'm beginning to question my own depression.My addiction.Because,I'm still sad either way.Whether or not I'm high or sober,I still feel empty while I sit down in Limbo.Wondering if I'll ever make it out… Maybe,I'm not necessarily full of sorrow because of my disappointing decision to roll another joint while my opportunities wither away.Maybe,It's...

The Beast Is Dying
Satan lurks within the shadows of your sins,Smirking at every trip & fall he'll inevitably witness!Regardless,Of your fear to be noticed.He's a soldier who's out to cause major pain to those who wane away from the God's word over gold and,Other illusions fading as we're laid within a grave dug by our own vices… It's...

The Escape Route – Freewrite #43
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 →
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...
