Darkness

In darkness these thoughts have made into their place They’ve stolen my mind and hold it in embrace After the curtains fall there’s a new face That torments and consumes my every thoughts’ space This strength is a weakness, it follows me so It’s grip only tightens when asked to let go Constantly clawing, as … More Darkness

New Beginnings

Some things are wanted Some things are earned Some things are instinct Some things are learned No one is born With silver in hand They may think they do But don’t own their land Life, it’s a battle Fought by warriors, for ground No parcel is given No acre is found Nothing is owed in … More New Beginnings

Rhythm & Rhyme

Some-one told me, that-my-written poetry Is hard to read and hard to get the rhyme So I took a quick glance, a punctuation dance And decided I would help them this one time It’s LETters, you see, that make UP my poetry But the rhythm might be hard to figure out So I’ll try my … More Rhythm & Rhyme

Rise Up

My wardrobe’s the flyest My partisan bias Is painted on each pleat and cuff I look at my dresser Think “I’m an impresser” My donors, they can’t get enough They worship me, yes they do Sing to me, yes it’s true Follow through thick and through rough Blindly believing The things I’m achieving The truth … More Rise Up

Vanity

Fame is not what it once was It did not do what it now does The days of old are gone at last For that which was has long since passed Those who seek its key and door Do not know what they’re fighting for Expecting glee, they rush inside And loneliness is all they … More Vanity

Work in Progress

Someone told me “Find a wife and settle down” I looked at them and said “Okay, why don’t we talk and break this down” They cleared their throat and said “Ahem. Here is the righteous path of man” I cleared my own and said “Hold on. What if I’m not like all all of them?” … More Work in Progress

Sinless Stone

All these people, all these poses Looking through a lens of roses Spinning, swirling, they’re all dancing It’s their minds they are romancing We all go out, play the game At night we know we’re all the same Doing things we say we don’t And then pretend and say we won’t Yet you and I … More Sinless Stone
