An oddball,Thrown against a wall often.Forced to feel the cracks,Until my skin was pried open.But,Every scar you see is a painting made by God,For you to witness and be inspired,By pain we all suffer regardless if we desire to,Or not… I'm okay with that,I accept it.As you should as well,Instead of,Leaning over wishing wells,Throwing pennies...

Ocean Blues – Day 5, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Serene like a seagull when swimming in a sea of tranquility.To be gulled into boiling rage,Over thoughts that will go away,Is an error you must not make,If you plan on living life without misery.Be like a rock,Motionless upon impact when hit by a wave of despair and melancholy.You may get wet by tears drowning away...

Riptides… Day 4
Twenty days without smoking Mary Jane. What an accomplishment for a man like me who couldn't stop smoking until a tragedy happened. But, at this point, I'm just confused. So, so confused as to how I'm supposed to be living my life. Friends? I would love some. Family? I already have, but I feel like... Continue Reading →
Never…Ever…Give Up! – Day 1, Breathe
This is probably my,Toughest entry yet.The hardest piece I've ever chosen to write for the very reason that,I don't really want to wake up to whatever this is any longer.I just,Have no other choice… Haven't had any motivation to write,Let alone move my limbs any further past my bed regardless of how much I hate...

Medusa’s Touch – Day 1
Sex is,Just not the same as it used to be,For me,At least.Every time I think about it I feel so empty with a need to flee!From,The thought of her and what she does to me,Inside of a mind where I should find peace,Instead of countless images of Her leaving me in pieces… Does it mean...

Surf’s Up!
Been reflecting lately more than I probably should.But!How else do you fight back against the opponent we stand in front of when looking into the mirror?I'd like to think that I don't have a clue,Yet,I do.It's just,Harder to admit than you'd imagine.Because,Am I even worthy of His presence while I keep falling for the,'Madness?'No…A tainted...

Red Ocean (2013)
Blood streams down the inside of these eyelids,Coated with soiled tissue paper,Ripped clothing and a half chicken rowing down the reddened sea of thought,Picturing every red light down the street bringing these feet to a stop,Reminding me of where I first began at the shore of this garbage-ridden ocean... Red,The color that triggers the bull,The... Continue Reading →
Blessings of Pain
Prayers often commence when there seems to be no option left.When most want their dream car,That winning lotto ticket,Or,Their own dosage of attention to feel better about themselves.But,As our tears begin pouring oceans without shallow waters, many tend to drown inside their own resentment…I guess,At times,We forget how much of a blessing it is!To experience...

Baggage Full Of Bricks
Numb where I thought I'd never be.A temple disturbed by pressure I've refused to remove from my shoulders… "Got to get the next buck…I just,Need to know that I can eat tonight and the next…" Yet,All I can think of is,Cutting off each strap from a backpack scuffed by each of my attempts to either...

Love Ripz
Ripples of Love are often seen with people drowning inside of them. Hands above shore waving all around, Madly, As others walk by like, "Another one got caught tonight again!" But, What happens when you've made it to the other side? Making it to shore after crossing what seemed like a puzzle just to swim... Continue Reading →
