Eyes on Me
I don’t want to be seen
I don’t want to be perceived
I wish I could go anywhere and be invisible.
People are everywhere
Eyes are everywhere
They’re all living their own lives but why do I feel as though mine is being watched?
As though they’re looking for a mistake in me
Is my hair messy?
Is my outfit mismatched?
Do I walk wei...

Help from the World
When we are troubled and are greatly distressed -
When our mind is distorted and is not at it's best.
We may banish the world and just concentrate
On our unhappy lives and the world we may hate.
We just think of ourselves - then inwards we turn.
But this is not the solution as we should all learn.
Know help is there and then always accept it.
It's available now and so do not neglect it.

Spirit of Friendship
We were together back in the day
Bumping along so ready to play
You called me up, thought me up, as things got tough
But I’ve always been here to walk your paths
To see you shine, to laugh your laughs
You saw me smiling and did believe
I needed to show you it’s not make believe
This man now with you, can see who’s you
He loves and cares and will always be true
He’ll be ...

vertebrae (10/15/2023)
when time pines,
it happens in a vacuum.
blue-lipped and ecstatic
coloring the automatic
raptures ruptured
and the bubbles burst
counting down 'forgive me nots'
and pick-up petals buy the hearse
amen
bitten-pens
and day dreams
and
teethmarks in the shape of you
and
pulling blind bridles
we'd ride thru
tl so much nothing
stretched before us
a skating rink of fate

Encouragement
I can go miles
with someone believing in me.
So, speak into existence,
those words I need.
I’m not kidding,
or play acting a pose,
this isn’t a hobby,
it’s me you see, exposed.
My time is here, and
I don’t want to stop.
Give me that shout,
dissolve my doubts.

Spread your wings
Spread your wings they say.
Follow your dreams they encourage.
Light up the world they say.
Give it your best shot they want.
Lovely sentiments, strong words,
designed to help us succeed.
Form a life for ourselves
and be the best we can be.
but what about the people
who are struggling to be seen?
Not because of their academic ability
but because o...

When she folded into herself
You all looked away
When she unraveled
You all watched

The patient
"You have been here a few days now",
"Since Saturday", she replied
"And why did you come in here?"
"Because I attempted suicide"
She didn't have any worries,
She wasn't sad or happy,
It was blank, emotionless state,
Nothing to do, nothing got her interest,
Now been quite a few time living through this noiseless rhyme,
It was like a vegetative state, living in her mi...

High Tide, Low Life
You paint yourself blue, always blue
this letter brings me down
perched upon a rusty trailer
paint peels over my shoulder
I've been drinking
since the boats were rested
on the muddy estuary bed
It's high tide, low life
high tide, low life
I won't stop my reaching out
if there's any way to help, I'll find it
you're so slow to take my hand
scratching at your skin for answers
I ...

I'm sorry.
Broken
It’s a weird feeling.
Hating yourself.
Always.
I try so hard to put on a show
Always
To all of my friends
And my family
I need to be strong.
I don't want pity
I don't want to be a charity case
I’ve always been the person people come to for advice
And I’ve always been there for all my friends
And goddammit, I wish they were there for me

A Heroes Hero
Turn not a blind eye
to the homeless heroes
among us.
Give a voice to the
desperate and downtrodden.
Acknowledge their somber silence,
lend a helping hand.
Stand up, be counted.
It’s about more than solos
in the end.

First person, singular, New York
Flash Sparkle smile cry
smell of lights and precious dust
noise of speed
it's the baby in the street watching our feet
some with expensive shoes and some others with broken flip flops
he is watching it from the arms of the mummy
she wrote a simple line for those people who are passing by with their shoes
money for my baby
and this line is a request
not only for money

Dream Boat
Let the dreamless boy to cry
If his wish to fly has gone
How his tears going to dry
If he stays far of sun
Ask dreamless boy be awake
That the dream, is a part of us
Tell him: "think of a better talk"
And to change the dark glass
Help dreamless boy to be here
And clear his negative thought
Once he comes to hear or share
He will enjoy to dream in a boat

FRIENDSHIP
Some Friends are necessary for life.
As the air. As the water and food
Those friends, help us, to survive
In our hearts running, same as blood
They offer faithful trusted advice
And always keep the shining smile
Show satisfaction pureily, so nice
Have bounties tool, deeply as Nile
They never get argument to complain
They ever look for the cheerful talk to ...

HELP!!
Is it a Curse .. or God's Grace
To live alone heart and place
Suffering what I always face
Hopeless to be myself again
Are these changes good for me
To be lonely always or not to be
To live away of what I see
I lost my hope and brain
Sadly to wake up and sleep
Painful to feel yourself cheap
Living alone hurts in deep
I wish to know why, but i...

Life Race
You should plan to keep going
whatever you meet .. whatever you face
The only thing to be growing
Never to fallback in the race
Be aware to wear patience hat
Remove the hat of desperation
Keep energy for acts no chat
No goals achieved in quotation
Always to ask what you need
To get ready helping people
Same as you eat you must feed
To win the race you shoul...

Unbearable Anguish.
I'm torn with regret
I can't just repent
I look in the mirror and see a face I resent
I dug myself in a hole of lies
All my sins, I'm crucified
Hang me, leave me stuck in time
Kill me, let me meet demise
Suffocating, no more breathing
There's no way to start this healing
Like telling a clepto to stop stealing
Spewing words with no meaning
Help me, drowning, no life support
No get...

Electroencephalogram.
Tell me how am I supposed to end this?
This feeling in my stomach, is it endless?
I can't say that any of this makes sense,
but this has got me feeling apprehensive.
In my brain all I get is emotional feedback.
It always makes me take a few steps back.
I don't know what's wrong with my brain.
I can feel the static flow through my veins.
I'm trying to end the ringing in my ear.

Simple acts of disgrace
Life can be so simple,

Without expecting to drool.

Free-Falling
I’m losing my mind.
Don’t you understand?
I’m desperately reaching out for your hand.
Don’t leave me hanging, slipping, falling…
down into the endless abyss of darkness,
Never destined to land.
You’ve saved me once before,
But this time there are no safety ropes.
I’m free-falling, plummeting, going down…
My only hope Is for you to save me now.
I’m losing my ...

Letter from My Heart to God
Everything that I use to sooth my weary mind becomes a stumbling block. Reading, writing, worship, daydreaming, all killed by frustration and agitation. I need something to make the voices cease. I need a little time alone in peace. Lord, I’m left standing alone and wounded. When will my affliction stop? When will my mind be my own again? Free from dread, free from fear, free from worry, anxiety a...

Whoever
Pain hurts in the middle of the day, in the middle of the night and in many other ways
It masks itself as shame and keeps calling your name
You're nothing
You're worthless
You're alone
Calling out to the God who says He cares
But finding silence and distant stares
I want to be happy
I want to be whole
I want to be free of the ghost that haunts me
Haunting my days and wrestling with my ...

Painkiller
This world is brutal in its bitter way,
destroying beauty, tarnishing the good,
Hurting the carers, harming those who would
do better with their lives each passing day -
those who, despite all that the doctors say,
take back some control – if only they could
get up from where they drown beneath the flood
of good intentions. So today I pray:

Lost Woods.
If you're not careful you can get lost in the woods of your mind.
My piece of advice would be to bring with you a guide.
Someone to hold your hand and walk you through.
So that if something is lurking you have someone to hold onto.
Make sure the person you bring is trustworthy.
That they'll stick around when it starts to get scary.
Things go bump in the night and more-so in these woods...

I need a poets opinion:
(I can't decide which one I like more because I'm indecisive and incapable of art so let me know and I'd love some tips)
The most vanquishing despondency
Is to never be served coldly
But having no caring respondency
And being forever so lonely
Or,
The most vanquishing despondency
Is to have no caring respondency
However never treated coldly
And still for...

Cup
A cup of emotion, that’s what I am
I pour it out, upon your hands
I’ve never been the one for that, you’ve changed me
before you I was nothing
My life made of constantly bluffing
It’s difficult to open up
To be, this little cup
You’ve helped to put me in my place
You’ve Helped me through this little race
Although I’ve thrown you for a loop
You’ve always seemed to com...

TREE WISE MONKEYS
If you close your eyes
to the world outside,
will the fighting suddenly cease?
Will brother and sister
hold hands together
and build a new life of peace?
Does a person, born blind,
not hear the teeth grind
as disaster, from greed, is grown?
That because he can’t see,
thinks we're are all living free
and reaping the seeds we have sown?

Mind
Where is my mind, At times I feel I scratch and claw just to find, I'm behind in the race eluded to the right pace, Same case different place, as my sorrows follow, Escape no longer option not sure if it ever was, Just a young man tryna to do what I must Yet I titter on the cusp, feeling like it's all a bust, How can trust what I know when everyone else seems to go.... Astray. Been t...

On These Streets
An Old Poem:
Cracked sidewalks
follow the stampede
of the craze
of the holidays.
Rain drops as tears
down onto pavement
as the stampede
continues to gather
their gifts
and spend their generosity.
In all the midst
of the holiday spirits,
they never look down.
They never stop to see.
Here they go again,
frantic to buy
for those they love,
but what about me?
When they go,
all I will have
are the stain...
