i feel everything

i'm consumed by my thoughts

words in my mind

lyrics say what i cannot

 

broken are the voices

sounds float in the air

the noise is loud

at the ceiling i stare

 

my ears fill with melodies

my heart is set free

my eyes drown in tears

i can no longer see

 

a blanket of darkne...

Healed

september 13th, 2024

my past is mine
i write what i know
the words come easily
effortlessly they flow


pen on the paper
ink on the page
the room fills with smoke
the burning of sage


going back in time
i'm no longer here
i was a different person
suffocated in sadness & fear


i fell into depression
made some bad choices
my mind got paralyzed
i heard so many voices

Moments

september 12th, 2024

11:31 pm - 2:01 am

 

today is all i have

time cannot be bought

all of my memories

i see what you do not

 

what a suite life

it was so easy

ice cream trucks

getting cut by a freezie

 

drawing squares on the sidewalk

chalk in my hand

i want some grapes

there's a lemonade stand

 

sitting on a toilet

drinking some yop

sin...

Genesis

september 12th, 2024

turning my "breathtaking" dream note into a poem

 

 

in the beginning

a feeling of serenity

 

moving through air

floating down water

 

where am i?

what is this place?

 

a world of wonder

a movie-like fantasy

 

biblical like narnia

a planet like pandora

 

frozen in awe

i can't believe my eyes

 

a million white bi...

ashes

september 10th, 2024

 

moon in the sky

the water is rising

 

waves pulled by gravity

i'm drowning in the light

 

i'm falling to ashes

dissipating into the ground

 

i'm healing my scars

forming skin on my flesh

 

i am not who i was

once lost, now i am found

lifeline

september 10th, 2024

 

my name means pure

untainted by immorality

 

that's far from true

if only people knew the truth

 

to each person

i am someone different

 

broken pieces

the memories of my past

 

open wounds

bleeding flesh

 

my eyes tell a story

i've been through hell & back

 

i want to break the chains

they hold my heart together

7:34 pm

 

i am alone

i only have myself

 

who am i?

who am i becoming?

 

i don't want to be here

i want to live

 

where am i?

where am i going?

 

i need a way out

i'm stuck in a hurricane

 

my mind is racing

flowing through a river

 

how do i hit pause?

awake

september 10th, 2024

 

3:55 am

 

the world is asleep

i'm lost in my mind

a collision of reality & uncertainty

 

i lie awake at night

wondering who & where i'll be

today, tomorrow, and the next

 

i am a new person

tattoos mark my skin

ink forever fading into the sun

 

a body of stained glass

pieces of old & new

a collection of memories

life

september 9th, 2024

fragments of brokenness
flow in my bloodstream
forever in my dna
i want to be set free

childhood memories
burned in my brain
my world is hell
no escaping the fire

alive, but dying
in a cloud of darkness
suffocated by sadness
gasping for air

my mind is frozen
in waterfalls of quicksand
dripping tears of my past
heart & soul collapsed

lingering worries
