"I coin a phrase, For me to change, And pay for my sinz…" – m3l0dic
This isn't a poem,Nor prose,Nor a monologue,But,A warning.A warning about how good drugs,Of any kind,Make you feel.How downers will lift you up from the sky,Just to drop you deeper into that pool of regret you've decided to swim in.How uppers will force you to crash into the ground,Like molten-red meteors blazing its way into soil...

Sore.Exhausted.From carrying weight on two shoulders trembling over an extended lay-off,From caring about herself.She tries to smile,But,How can she when it's been years since she's been called beautiful by anyone?And.What really tears me apart is,How enchanting her pupils are,As black as a blackberry is purple.Like,The only Tulip blossoming in a field of grass turning beige...

Sunlight's shining upon me!But,From a magnifying glass I can't see.Heat-seeking a man working with his plan B,Instead,Of a past dream to live a life of innocence.Yet,None of us never had a chance to,Have we?A hard pill to swallow.But,It's a pill that won't leave you hollow,The same way your decisions will while choosing to wallow,About what...

Let go,Let go,Let go...Why must I do so?Why can't I have one bodily desire that doesn't equate to fool's gold?Desires that wouldn't blind my eyes from the value love brings,Till I'm too broken to pay for sins more than a few know?All I want is a one night stand,Some booze,And,A few rolls of weed until...

Papier-mâchéd love without being folded properly.Each crease mistaken for the right path visible for the entire world to witness.Unless a change is made,The old discarded for what's new and improved,We'll never be a sight-for-sore eyes to stare into,For comfort we've never been able to find in each other's presence.You've never wanted me,But,I've wanted you,Yet,I work...

Communicating with what appears to be a mannequin.A voice box appears to be present as long as you press the right buttons without any damage.Yet,No matter what I say,The response will always be the same.So,Why even bother talking until the point of rage crawling up my spine?Silence,In this case,Seems so divine.I'd rather sit down,And,Write a...

Flimsy.Ripping at the slightest tension.Such weak garbage bags I keep for baggage I carry,As heavy as each rejection I've suffered,Been blessed with,However I feel during the moment.It's why I change them as fast as I can,Before debris scatters all over my floor,Out of my control.Kind of like,My emotions encountering a new palm I grab,With a...

Cracks.Scuffs.Faded colors add more beauty onto photos we find difficult to look at again.Nothing to be scared of,Besides your refusal to acknowledge everything that made you who you are.To leave your inner child crying in a corner?Is what you'd expect in a heart full of cowardice.A heart giving up on itself regardless of its morning...

There's an innocence resting in her eyes I don't quite know how to explain. But, I'm mystified by her smile nonetheless. Not a clue I have of who she is,Yet,I would like to know.Her eyes withhold a story to tell,And,Luckily for me,I've grown to be a reader the older I get.I can't help,But,Wonder what the...

Maybe,I don't know myself enough,After all.Everytime I get a bit of free time,I find myself plastered on to a wall!Trying to decide what to do,Where to go,And,Why?Without a reason ever coming to my mind…But,Here I am!Walking down the Lower East Side,Until I'm flattened by upsetting thoughts I couldn't iron out with my,Self.My inner-child hanging on...
