You are so _beautiful_. Every part of you. The outside, the inside, and everything in between. Your green eyes, they're more than green. Green is too simple, too bland a word to use. Your eyes look like a forest, the sea, and the sun. So uniquely beautiful. I used to think your eyes were blue, but that was before I got lost in their depth. Before I _heard_ them. Now that I do, I see, feel, and und...
To doodle on the sides of my book
was not what I first had in mind
When you said
you needed to write me something
I wasn’t expecting
A heart shaped iris
Drawn above the neatly organized lines
Inside sketched eyes
Instead of dark circles
I thought a letter was what I'd find
Not a diaper baby
Floating on what seems to be clouds of dust farts
Shooting safety pins
At calligraphy of the word...
Cloudy brain , heavy rain
Too much to hold , too much to think
All the thoughts , no one knows
Secrets pending to be told
It’s dark , it’s mysterious but it mine.
I keep them hidden deep inside.
For no one will understand , what I hold in my mind.
Is it better unsaid , is it best untold.
Should I reveal the secrets that keep my mind on go....
Eighty-six thousand and 400 seconds
Consumed by hours of constant hardship
Dress that way; Do it right
Look your age; don’t put up a fight
Don’t stress out; do not fret
If you mess up it’ll only create one singular mess
That’s not it; thats not right
That’s too short; thats too tight
Act right all the time
Don’t screw up it’s not worth your time
Screw up that grade
Make a mistake
Argue again

Say my name
Because I shouldn’t be prey
In a place that’s supposed to be safe
Say her name
Because she shouldn’t be afraid
While walking home everyday
Say his name
Because the color of his skin
Shouldn’t define who he is
Say her name
Because her religion
Shouldn’t cause her bullying
Say his name
Because mothers shouldn’t be afraid
to lose their kids to an early grave
Say her name
Because...
As I stroll through journey we call life,
The harder it gets to contain my desires,
The desires of wrath, greed, pride, and lust are all so relevant in our society,
When I reflect through my life,
I’ve never been perfect,
I’ve never wanted to be seen as perfect,
But I have thought of some evil deeds,
These deeds circulate through my brain,
but haven't came to action yet,
These actions also make ...
His hot breath consumed my gentle skin as his lips drag across my small body, trembles and tears shed for no pause in his gentle assault. For my innocence was taken by the animal I once called family. The gentle touch that sent shocks up my body as I thrash to no avail. Bound to his sinister motives my silent cries beg for his mercy as his life’s sword penetrates the thing I held close yet so far....
I hear your moans, low and feral.
Like a cat lost to heat, you whine.
I feel your rhythm, wine in a barrel.
Aged like grace against the best whiskey line.
Confess. Redemption. The soul yearns.
Heart, Space, and Time we share.
My heart stolen by a thief with burns.
Touched by your fingers, bare.
Sin Oh Father, I lay at your feet, heavy and foul.
Repent in your name, protected and strong.

They say “sticks and stones may shatter bones, but words will never hurt you”.
That is a complete lie because…well because words can hurt you. It can cut deeper than any scar you could have one your body.
I’ve got a confession….
I hurt someone deeply
To the point where they don’t want to get out of bed
They cry themselves to sleep
They refuse to even speak
They sometimes wish they could wipe awa...
