Church bell chimes flood both eardrums with a vision,Poured out from His fingertips in drip-drops of,Blood.Sweat.Tears.All mixed into a cherry red painting brighter than both cheeks when flushed by.The day He took his eyes off of a sky,Gleaming with a way out of an eternal abyss.Hoping to find beauty in an image He can bear...

Packing In Another Joint – Day 139, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Never do I know where to begin,Nor,How to write it,Nor,How to address an engorged heart with a need to burst and shout…So much pain!Without knowing where to put it other than one place,A page,Where I've been having an abundance of doubt.Yet,Not once have I cared for the darkness shrouding my mind…I care to find an...

The Plate Is About To Shatter – Day 137, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
I find myself asking often, "What am I doing with my life?" And, I don't really know why. I'm a writer, poet. I perform as many times as I possibly can throughout the week. I have a job allowing me the free time to be myself. What do I really have to complain about? Sure,... Continue Reading →
Seduced By Pain – Day 135, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Sick and tired of,Being sick and tired.Although alcohol and weed are no longer parts of my life,I still struggle with food and lust.And,I abhore it so much more than you can ever imagine.Because,Any time I find myself free to write a poem,I get lost,Entrapped in the thought of what keeps me at my lowest.With only...

The Ice Cream Melted – 134, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Cupcakes,Candy bars,And,Ice cream seem innocent,Until,I raise the bar,And,Cut out anyone sugarcoating their solidarity in a melting pot,Most are simmered in… Just when you think things are sweet,They spoil when left on a shelf,Forgotten,While rotting in a Hell,Hotter than fire withheld in our pupils… Whoever's they to you!Democratic,Conservative,Independent,You choose!In the end,We all cook our food,On a...

Sweet Sounds Of Russian Roulette – Day 133, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Memories pop into mind like,A game of Russian Roulette.Each one,Anxiety-ridden.Sweat beads down my forehead at every turn of events.Never do I know which one will coerce me to pull the trigger,But,I figured,It's a risk that must be taken.What other thrill do I have besides,Going through a photobook imprinted in my mind,As I pick at every...

Muse I’ve Never Wanted – Day 131, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Your eyes are like,Looking into peonies and roses. Under moonlight during the spring, With a night sky tattoed by stars,Bright enough to outshine the City fog.Gorgeous,Surreal.But,I'd rather stay away,And,Admire what created you in the first place.A God that loves me the way I desire you to love me.As alone as I am,If I get lost...

Keys To The Labrynth – Day 128, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Run the course!As complicated as the labrynth gets.It's a challenge,But,As long as you manage,Your way around it with as much damage your body can endure,The gain is greater than drowning inside of a Tsunami poured,From each corner of your eyes… There isn't much time to clamor over your mistakes.I,Promise each bump on a road to...

Lost Love In The Same Sea – Day 127, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
She fell in love with a Wanderer,Never knowing where he'd end up next.Confused by every step he'd take,She'd brace herself each time her cellphone rang,Anticipating the worst news possible.But,For as long as her mind allowed her to remember,His voice pushed soundwaves into her eardrums as soothing as chilly breeze on a hot,Summer day."I'm in front...

Heist Of The Century – Day 126, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Supervening intentions cloud His mind as his eyes feast upon a table littered with gold he'd never seen before.Should he dab and dip?He asked.With a stash and print,His fingertips on what was already dirty in the first place? Self-made,Is the dream.But,A shell made of a thief,Is what was left in place in a mind who... Continue Reading →
