The shell that keeps my hope alive Seems of late eager to dive; Leaving me with less and less, Though I try to keep it at its be… This symbol I hold so close to he…
As the one they hold on to; a lesson towards the knowing end, no better off to be accepted And darker waters, left to tread. Who’s this place for, if not me?
Slip it in the boat, to creek; Push away the ground from under the nervous dance of feet. Could be drowning, could be relief… I feel the flow of current
Pictures are all I’ve got for now… Along with distant memory The feeling of your lips on mine Becomes an ever recurring dream A phantom limb hangs on my side
It’s so funny to watch people prai… In the fields you’ve broken your b… And you smile, clapping happily fo… For the attention they’ve recieved But inside, you’re left wanting, w…
Some lessons you just can’t teach; Some people can’t be taught. A great man fears most what’s insi… That one’s good deeds are misbegot… How many times can they hear no
Lying, sidewalk. Face down, steady beat, heart pumping; numb to the feeling, lost to ground.
Look! A rising star is born! Beautiful face, lovely smile, Happy and laughing, full of innoce… Let’s take them and teach them how… Let them learn to aspire, to want,…
I’m called outside There’s no one home; I knock and I plead but I feel al… Won’t you deliver a smile to my da… You set the sun in the sky, so hel…
I cried myself through to sleep And cried violently back awake How does this make me strong in yo… I find it annoying, don’t know why… And yet you’re already running awa…
The trees quiver with the yawning… And I struggle by an inner plight… Where went the words I need to sa… I can feel them, but they’re locke… The insects buzz and socialize;
Such a face to see, a villain. Ragged, lilting; Worn and fierce. Eyes that glean the boundaries step within the vapor;
Take a sip of cough syrup, It’ll keep you right as rain. Scratch at the notch, Slip on a gold watch; You won’t need to feel again.
They say the devil’s like a man ; As beautiful and fair, Spared only a parting glance, You’d never know he’s there. Aloof until crisis of faith,
Tomorrow, Everything’s all out of the place,… Could you look in my head; pull a… And through my eye, Give it a name, a how and a why?
