Alarming Silence – Day 287, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Alarms sound off from the top of the morning,But,I never hear them.Hours go by while I wrestle with my thoughts,And,Emotions."When is this all going to end?"Why am I still here?"Not a single message to look forward to.Zero voicemails wondering where I've been.Just,A screen as black as the empty,Spacious void in my chest devouring any hint...

Shallow Victories, Triumphant Losses – Day 275, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
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...

Chasing Shadows – Day 274, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Sometimes I ask myself,"Am I still alive?"I haven't seen my shadow for a whilr,Ever since you said good-byr.Can't help,But,To think,"Did I waste my life?"Chasing who I thought was my other half.Ripped apart from my palm while I held a knife on the other hand.Not realizing it was I who split us down a middle I...

Breath Of A Dragon – Day 260, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Certain days,It doesn't feel like I'm human.I can't remember the last time I cried,Or,Laughed while enduring a contusion,Of emotions I've suffered at the hands of my own confusion.Confusion stemming from my refusal to quit what God deems useless.But,Maybe I've dried the well as I do my best to see different.Fluids tainted by bloodied fingertips,And,Specs of...

Warfare Of Spirit – Day 244, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Spiritual warfare…What grandeur lies ahead as blood splatters on a battlefield where souls die,Knowing rest is not eternal?As we slip into a dream state,We wake,Whether or not our mind takes notice of the netherworld where soil is fertile,For human hearts rotting away!In its core.Or,Paradise we're bound for when following the word of the only King...

Music For The Sober – Day 242, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Everything else is better than sex,Drugs,Alcohol,Whatever gets you high for that matter.Back when they were all I thought about,My reality had shattered.Anytime I looked into a mirror,I was cracked further away from repair,Every second I stared into a man I believed wasn't there,Any longer...Anytime I hear glasses cling,As a sober man nowadays,It's music to my...
