Hi,Grandma!It's your grandson checking in.Lately,I haven't had many people I can speak to while I keep steady with,A palm shaking as I write poem,After poem,While my mind goes blank worrying for the readiness,I must prepare for when heading into a room full of people I don't want to see.Forgive me,But,That includes the family you've built.I...

The Shut-Eye Of The Storm – Day 278, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Romance died the moment self-love was introduced.Never heard of it once as a young gun possessing a mind fully loaded with an itch to shoot,Off from a mouth as dicey as a gamble,Full of loot we bounce wall to wall for.The drive we wake up with is driven off course,For what we can gain to...

Lovely Mondays, The Right Start- Day 276, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Mondays.How mundane they can be.Yet,Their importance weighs heavy,As the start of a week where you get to decide to let it all go,Or,Continue carrying what's making your knees buckle,And,Buckle.Trembling with each step taken forward,Towards a jungle too dark for one to foresee the outcome of their journey through.What Monday truly is,Is your chance to break...

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...

Legion Of My Own – Day 273, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Seeking a legion of soldiers to go to war with is,Weaking treason against what's blocking my metamorphisis.What I need is a reason to keep moving forward in,A field fill of dreams in a season as hot as every corner with,A warning sign,Glaring in your face each time you pass by,Crash sites littered by packs besides,Minds...

An observor is all you can be when you're a drifter without a home to lay His head in.Human interaction is what I've dreaded,For as long as I can remember while heading towards heaven,I find in a pen,And,Paper littered with my thoughts,Dreams,Knowing I will never receive a citation for it.I'm quite proud to have hoarded,Journal...

Solitude.Isolation.A super power in a world over-stimulated by social ties choking their senses until the point of oblivion.Does it mean I've steered away from interaction?No.It just means I have a drive speeding towards peace while I'm on a road full of too many infractions.I've had enough relationships.My situation is too complicated for most to understand...
