My vitality lies within a poem ripped out from the ruins of a heart I don't often visit,As blood glistens on a palette I tap on visciously with an eisel out of madness.My lifeforce,A blessing,A gift I've adorned as a shield within war,I've never signed up for as I course through it with class… What...

An Expresso, Please! – Day 85, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
What I express so often,Would wake you up from mourning your dreams,Coughing up doubt while clearing a mind from a nightmare you've seen,Too many times when closing your eyes to the screech,Of a lie you've grown accustomed to… Of how you're not good enough.Of how you're not destined to fly over incoming gifts you were...

The Masquerade Is Burning – Day 73, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
This world…So many souls hover in it while laminated by rock indestructible for most who come across it.So many hover around colder than its freezing point in an atmosphere combustible by any means necessary.A paradox,Per say.But,A paradox most are more content with than being what they were truly meant to be.Why?So much easier it is,To...

Starry Eyes Too Blind To See – Day 53, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
There's a feeling in my chest that,Nothing is what we are told anything to be at all.How movies portray more truth than the news reporting what seems like is meant to stall,Our arrival into a truth that would make the average person fall to their knees and bawl… Incredible,How my younger self already knew what...

Never Was His Fault – Day 50, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Takes you a while to understand how everything is our fault.How God gave us free will to simply do our part.Yet,We choose war,Bloodshed,To torment another's state of mind and far!Do we take it.Blaming God for our mishaps on Earth after being told how to behave in,A world ruled by a dark force who's goal is...

The Poison Fountain – Day 33, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Today's piece is more of a statement than prose or a poem. There aren't many rhythms I can think of this very moment. All I can think of is escaping from a family that has lost its mind in ways I never thought would happen growing up as a lonely kid in the South Bronx.... Continue Reading →
Cold Middle – Day 11, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Beef patties in a microwave for under a minute,What happens?Kind of what you're abandonment did to me.Left me in a searing rage,With a heart colder than Winter's Sea.But,Shame on my lack of vision in all honesty.Because,You've never really smiled when looking my way.You just,Looked down on me,Somberly… Yet,I understand,Dad.Because I've disappointed myself by leaving my...

Melodic Truths Must Be Told pt. 1 – Day 7, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Rapping was something I never thought I'd fall out of love with,But,I did.Too much time was spent wrapping my head around my existence,As dead is how I imagined it.Yet,Here I am rhyming words,Again,In a less reckless fashion more fitting for man with many chips,On two shoulders,Too exhausted,To keep holding on to weight equilibrated with,Each tear...

Here, But I Have To Be – Day 4, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Valiant efforts are laid to waste,Nowadays,When I try to smile without forcing myself to.Sorrow tends to drown out my laughter any time I humor myself with a different hue.I can't seem to think of another color,Besides red,To use on a canvas where I picture myself dead…A truth I've tried to avoid regardless of any joy...

Sweaty Palms
Maybe,My palms are hesitant to write every single day because,I fear my true feelings will keep driving others away like they've already done.So,Each time I sit up trying to encourage myself to write a poem,I just,Lay broken.Soaking my spirit in tears from not doing what my heart truly wants to do.And that's just…Sitting in silence.With...
