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...

Too Late! Or, Is It Really? (Prose)
Too late! What does that mean, really? In a life where we have the ability to change regardless of the odds, is it ever really too late to climb back up from the fate of damnation? The only judicious reasoning I can muster for anyone's opportunity at redemption is, death. What can one possibly do... Continue Reading →
Why Me?
"Why does it have to be me?" The question I ask when I walk down a street,Where my feet never feel welcomed.A beast in the eyes of each person I pass while I smile with a piece of me broken.And,Only I know what rattles inside of a mind I pray for,For the moment… No one... Continue Reading →
Lost In My Mind
Lost.Stuck inside the confines of a mind gone dark.How do I break through?Is the question I repeat in hopes an answer would spark.Lighting fires under my belly rather than enduring a combustion burning my dreams away,As I inhale another breath and keep calm.Opening my palm!To receive blessings I've rejected for way too long.All for a...

Clouded By Choices
I guess I've been so disappointed in myself that,I could barely face my pen and pad,With intent to heal myself from a past I've,Chosen to rewind in my mind,Until I was shown a price I was forced to pay.My voice,Along side a silent mind was the cost,So,I had to pick a different choice.Between destroying every...

Will I Survive? 1.
Distant even if I don’t want to be. But, as much as I long for someone’s touch, I’ve had to keep far away from everything. People, poetry, sports, work to some degree. Everything. I’ve had to clear my mind of all the lies I’m told each time I bother reaching out for any kind of... Continue Reading →
Just Playin’ Ball
Hits,Diamonds,Home base.Watch your circle change,How it breaks with the way you spin your story.Most gravitate to those who drop jewels,But,Few are brave enough to pick them up from the ground and shine when it’s pouring.I got thrown a curve ball when I decided I would mind mine,While left stranded after basing my peace off the...

Dreamin’ On Snake Way
Rest.It slips away from your mind when you're addicted while lonely and stressed.No longer is it in your grasp until you let go of what burns in your soul to no end.Crisped insidiously by a joint lit by the pain in my chest!But,It's time for a new story to be authored while repenting for each...

Forsakenness
A reflection was needed more than a rhyme with how erratic,Yet,Predictable they have been.They,A family wretched in nature while ridden by demons who've they've joined forces with.Dead of dreams while smothering any hint of light beaming towards their person… What am I to do?How do I escape the clutches of withered souls who quench their...

Prize Nobody Wants
You can't imagine all the pain that I bear.While everybody thinks I'm an animal feeding off of despair,All I am is just a man grown sick and tired of looking for apologies others wouldn't care to give.So,I've isolated.Stayed away what would not embrace me while aggravated,By a dysfunctional family,Demons who rather bestow insanity upon me!...
