Family wouldn't make it a point to remind you how no one cares for your existence.Family would never cross lines you've set in sand to thwart off all kinds of maliciousness.Family would sooth your battle scars after every hit and miss,Regardless if you're wrong or right in whatever position you're in.So…Where was mine as my...

F The Tooth Fairy!
Sick…Of so many things!But,Mostly how we show each other love in the strangest of ways.Like,Our greetings on most days.Some start by saying,"Hey!How's everything?Hopefully you're doing swell!"Ending it there without a restraint even if they notice you aren't doing too well.You might even get a pat on the back,Maybe one on your ass,And!A big ole' middle...

Writing My Escape Route #1 – Silhouettes Of War
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...

My Magic Pen
Recapping everything that happened the night before is typically a bad move,Unless you yearn to lie within a deathbed God created for you!For wearing too many different hats fitting the man you think you already are while,Hiding the truth… Might as well be yourself,In a world trapped in a shell,Cracking underneath pressure it already felt...

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...

Basura
"Basura.Pajarito.Worthless.A disgrace,The reason for your desired suicide…" Just a small portion of what you've said to me within the past couple of days.Do I forgive you?Yes!But,You?I must keep distant from before my life is ruined by your bitterness and hate.A word you directed at me with a smile till this day!Without any shame as you...

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...

Am I Really Free?
Haven't written freely in so long and it feels so, so glorious. Who would've thought that it would take until my resignation to smile without dumbbells tied to each corner of my lips? Guess I really do have a problem leaving what becomes familiar to me, trapped in the confines of safety I can only... Continue Reading →
Digress
No one likes to feel like they're in a therapy session.You want another to listen with open ears and simply understand the message,Being told against your own will telling you to bottle it inside until it explodes in your chest and,Pierces through your guard once thought to be unbreakable regardless of impact from any weapon...

Rocky Victories
At long last…I went back home!Sooner than I thought,And,I'm already aching to go back before I lose control… Of a mind tied in a slipknot.Of a vision fighting against wind blowing debris within it,As I try to pick my eyes every few seconds even if they crust over with rocky memories flashing by… Whether it...
