So silent.The only thing audible are the lights that stay on,Out of my control.Nothing can be heard beyond the entryway.Soundproof.Just what a poet desires… The bittersweet sounds of nothingness combined with each cry from my inner-child is,Something to behold.A joyous occasion experienced once in a blue moon,For a soul searching for,Space… Space from a world...

Going All In – Day 18, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Going all in.What does that mean,Exactly?Does it mean giving everything up,Including a full plate of satisfaction?Staying hungry,Yet,Satiated by the joy of your passion?I only ask because,I'm not happy knowing I've been hired for a new job,I already desire to quit before starting my first day for what I truly want… A stage where I can...

Wounded Soldier
Health is an oddity in my lonely life.Although I wake with energy surging through my finger tips,My legs are too fatigued to walk toward boxes of journals full of what could be the difference,In a life I don't feel is worth living anymore… Rather,What's left of me should be given to a soul who needs...

The Dark Hour
Yes,I often think of suicide,But,Still have the courage to refuse such atrocity.Because,My life was given!It was never mine to take in the first place regardless of how many demons got to me… After all,It's my job to thwart them off of my shoulders.If I don't,I deserve every consequence that looms over my soul.If I coast...

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 →
A Look Back At The Boogie Down
Jobs are hard to stay consistent with, at least for me. If there is no purpose my soul can find within any kind of structure of work, then by God will I rebuke it to the hottest flame Hell has to offer. But, as a top flight security guard in the boogie down, South Bronx,... Continue Reading →
Cuter In My Picturez
"Eres mas lindo en el foto..." Well,Sorry,Not sorry!I didn't know that I was here to give you starry eyes,While I'm sparring with my demons.I'm just here for a job,A simple drop off that you complicated by the lust you are seeking.Yes!I couldn't help but peep it,Too.That fat ass and those brown curls,But,What I see in...

Red Skies: Intro To The Madness
Dark.Musky.Air thickened by the winds of crying lungs.Sky reddened by from the splatter of my open wounds.Yet,One can very much breathe while standing tall on this rotting soil... What other choice do I have as I trot over to the Lion's Den?A Hell on Earth where souls wither away underneath their undying squabbles over pennies... Continue Reading →
Write Upz
*Side Note before reading* A muuuch older piece! Back when I was still drinking. After a bit of a tough day, it helps me read these old poems being that I'm almost a year completely sober. Sometimes it gets so hard, but when reading this I go, "Wow, I really don't drink anymore! Thank God."... Continue Reading →
