Do it now before it's too late.Put down the Kool-Aid!And,Get away from what is sugarcoated by a lie,Inside of what others light up with butane.Damp from saliva they spit out while they pass over slews of eighths,Trying to make you a slave… Focus on love from the most high!Watching us from the sky,Guiding us with...

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...

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...

A Calcified Heart – Day 132, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Ossified by the inner depths of a soul I've grown too weary to understand.But,What other option is there besides softening a core I can't bear to tighten much longer?Rigid I've been,War-torn by an abyss full of monsters I have not been able to see.Yet,Alive I still am.Bruises,Cuts,Wounds left open for decades until my vessel has...

Pull The Plug – Day 124, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Ventilating.Yet,My breath escapes.Each,Moment feels as if I'm closer to death.But,Sorrowful I am not.There are times,Where we must die,To move on,Into the next life.A life full of vitality found in an angel resting on your right shoulder.Guiding you across boulders,Pulverized by the writing you uphold on a,Chest full of treasures a hurting soul can take from...

Loud-Mouthed Rarity – Day 101, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Silence feels like a rarity,Nowadays,Doesn't it?As if sitting with your thoughts is a reason to discard humanity.Viewed as a punishment compared to finding solace in a covenant of vanity,Formed by a group of individuals who couldn't play their cards right even with a hand in each,Kind of pocket you can think of,As a joker glossing...

Mirrored Caricatures – Day 62, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
A caricature my beloveds' memory of myself it became.But,Jokes on them since I laugh at myself,Anyway.I tend to believe if you can't giggle at yourself,A part of you is dead inside,In need of revival… Nobody's perfect.As cliché as it is,Nobody's certain!Of themselves completely.We,Stumble at times.We,Crumble and cry.Sometimes,We just need a big ole' humble pie!Our faces...

The Only One That Will Catch You – Day 58, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Who am I to give my soul,To whom it doesn't belong to?If you're not who created it,Never can you savor it,No matter how much you want to… I owe and give it all to Jesus.When I needed someone to hold on to,Through the storm,Only He was there to keep me steady through the season,That could've...

Bulldozer – Day 56, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
A bulldozer is what I intend to be.Obstacles are a part of life,And,It's our job to run them over.Some never clock in,But,I'm locked in and see past the lack of acceptance.Whether or not others forgive me,I forgive myself for what I did in my rocky past,Moving on from the horrid man I was becoming.There's no...

Withered Rose, Day 44, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Withering cries tunnel through a path blocked by a vortex of hateful words.If you try passing it by,You will get swallowed,Spiraling out of control until you land on a patch of loveless dirt.Dirt where every sprouting seed dies before reaching its exit… Is death the only option?Is there any point in turning back to any...
