If I could be anyone
Well, that’s a list to fill
There are many who are accomplished:
Athletes
Writers
Business
Finance
Literature
Military
Small business owner
All so different. More to explore.
Tell me who to be
So that I’m yours.
It’s not you, it’s me
If I die
It’s
Not from lack of trying
— on their part–
But because
I didn’t want to share
My pain.
Smokescreened reality
I post pictures to my feed
All these social hypocrisies
To please a void within me
Images to be seen, Public animosity.
It lets me believe in something beyond my cruel reality.
These moments are a smokescreen to memories
Shared with only me.
A life left to go unseen
What is a life
Without shared memories
Drowning Needs
Hellbent on drowning
Deep beneath the sea
Where the world fades and Leaves only you and me.
Forgetting to breathe
Suffocation for a deeper need
Just out of reach
Deeper I creep
Is this an obsession or a need
Slowly killing me
Will you breathe life back into me
Or go deeper without me
Subject to mistake – short poem
I want to scream Into the night
I want to fight
And hurl my thoughts
With rage and crash my Soul
into your wall
I want to break myself And shatter this–
This monster inside us all.
I want to rip out my hair And drink your hate
Subjects to our mistake
Soul mates whove forgotten how to relate;
Assassainate my fate.
End the stalemate.
Oh, my Alexander, lets go back.
back to being great.
Darkened Glow
As my world
Shakes and crumbles
You’re hand catches mine.
Lost inside my darkness
You lift my eyes to shine
If only the light burnt brighter
Fading from the everlast
You let me slip through each finger
As not to hinder your lingering glow
Alas, I’m back to darkness.
No fading glow
No gun or bow
Just me and my desicrated soul
Squawking Hen – short quote
the hen spoke words relentlessly until breathing become uneasy. Though she did not feel better to speak such things, no, because the squawking hen still loses its head the farmer’s blade in the evening.
Tender Halo – short poem
tender via the daily post
Awaken by the glow of a soft sunrise Halo
The hues of passion highlight your hair
As tender kisses trace my chest
One last romance
We’ll never forget
Love me gently & love me true;
For the love of war is
Taking you
Crisp Lips – Short Poem
Crisp Lips
Via The Daily Post
Twist the top until it POPS
The fizzy bubbles singing to the night
I stare at you through the starlight
Our champagne cannot rest
as my mouth bites it’s tongue
I wish to close this distance
With the crisp wind between us
Though I sip & watch your lips;
and let the night
be the one to lead us.
