Til we meet again, i said as i walked along the pale grey sidewalk with you, knowing those steps would be our last together.
as we spoke inside, about our future, about our current state, or whether we would last forever.
our hearts were pure, maybe not for each other, two souls meant to cross paths, is this for the better?
i said crying along side you, capturing our last hug, this isn’t rea...
Picking up the pieces as the mind crumbles
Life shatters like glass & yes pick that up too
Strength of unity weakened but don’t let it weaken you
The you inside will always shine through, just gotta stay true to the real you
It’s hard isn’t it ?… , yea I know it’s hard for me too
But either way we have to let our light shine through
It’s ok ,you got this !
& I promise I’m right here wit...
I was poor, I am poor
Not like before
I used to be rich in family
Now I’m rich in empty items
In the past I’ve always been hated
Never nowadays, lonely
I was innocent, I am innocent
No I’m not crying wolf
I know for a fact
Now I try not to sin
I know I’ve faced most of it all
Not now, the life I’ve choose is stalled...
Pages turned,
In a great room so grand.
Thousand silent words spoken,
Where silence is never broken.
Where scholars, poets, and great minds gather,
What a place it is to wonder.
The once place that can’t be bought,
To be possessed for them or mine.
Libraries are what I first think,
When my brain is aching to think.
I wrote this poem,
Because it was the first I could think....
Rushing water thrashing around
It wants its way
It is unforgiving
It leaves you with gashes
In your heart
That will never go away
It is a child
Taken away
And made to be someone else’s way
It’s in the rapids
The rapids of abuse and misplay
With permanent bruises
One day
The child will become the rapids
It will be the storm
Of tears
And blood
And decay...

Silence shatters like a porcelain cup,
Secrets spilled and soaked into our souls,
Broken hearts bled, as tired eyes shed tears of sorrow.
It was a night like any other when it all began to stir up,
Though first had I believed the noti...
If I walked through the sea,
Would you follow me?
For I cannot promise that you will not bleed
For I cannot promise, you won’t hear the screams
I’m painted in pain
Color coded in sorrow
Running on fear
And praying for tomorrow
You may slip under my waves
Be trapped by what is below
You must to learn to float
Destruction is what I cause
However, I will only be brave for
I fear my mind
I fear you...
