Blood Sport
Left out to dry
The vacuum of your disposition siphoned the blood from my heart
Skin and bone fractured from the start
Rendered as an eternal distraction
Sleep well tonight my dear Marigold
For I have no sword to spare
You have wielded mine to inflict mortal damage
Bleeding out slowly to the psalm of your artificial tongue
Eyes of manipulation and mutilation
Succeeding ...

The love you want
The days seem longer
Dragging my burlap sack of grief through the mud
Screaming into an emotional abyss
I blindly continue this unforgiving journey
Not knowing where my next step will lead me
Relinquish me of this affliction
Why should the weight of another persons inhibitions sink me to the depths of the Mariana’s Trench?
For when I gaze towards the light, only darkness se...

Writers block
The hardest part is turning life’s pages
Gazing at an empty canvas of uncertainty
Failing to form words of solace and structure
We always know where to end
But how do we know where to begin

Rain
Rain graciously descending from the clouds of elation
Colliding against cracked window panes
Streaking downwards, like tears rolling off a innocent cheek
Fallen to your knees
Those which came before reside forever in our construct
Rain down on me
Watering the soil, where the past meets our home at last

Where did we go wrong?
Grasping onto all that’s left
Palms filled with elation
Watching as the sand pours through my nimble fingers
This was designed to last for years
How did we get here?

Leech
Driven to distraction
No glancing back
Eaten alive from the inside out
What have you done to my heart?

Dancing with the devil
Dancing with the devil is audacious
Unknowingly stepping to the beat of my fate
A masquerade sponsored by fallacy and infidelity
Standing upon the shattered champagne glasses of my trust
Penetrating the soles of my oxfords as I continue this dance
Though I can no longer hold a glass, I bear the trust where I walk, through streets or through grass.

Heartbreak
Holding onto me
Your thorns pierce my side
Accepting my fate
Serpent tongue of lust and manipulation
A soul breached from the words which left your mouth
A heart broken from the actions of your loyalty
Shattered glass of trust trails your every move
Barefoot I walk upon your path until I perish
Bloody and scared indefinitely
Lead me upon your path of glass shards
I shall solely walk f...
