He loved you
He loved all of you
All who ever caused him pain
You all took advantage of him
The person he once was
But that person is no more
Something awoke inside that boy
That you all just seemed to want to make suffer
He built himself back up
Piece by piece
Still looking to find every piece that you all shattered
But the person he has become
Will never be broke down
Will never be ta...
The voice is a bit louder than usual tonight.
My wrists are tingling,
My thoughts continue racing and the urge to self destruct is desperately awakening.
I have to remember the aftermath feeling,
I have to continue living.
Self destruction is my form of wounds aching.
Thoughts,
Actions,
Feelings,
Then there is doing.
Self destruction is a heart bleeding and now it’s crying, beating, and giving the...
You pushed me aside
After they let me inside
They checked my eyes
But was it my mind
Oh you were so mean to me
Oh why couldn’t you see
I was afraid
Such a little girl
I had just moved from state to state
and across the world
it wasn’t my fault
no
oh seven you made me
Pray for eleven
The pizza party ended
with how we chewed it
you could have been quiet
but then you’d admit
Oh you were so ...
This place is a poison. The ego and the intellect make for a dull boy. The Spirit and the Truth make for a great joy. Thank You Jesus. God, you give us all peace and blessed assurance.
The modern culture stands to fall. Dark vibrations echo on the majority of walls. In the car, on the screen, all around, in between. Nescience knows no bounds. Until bound in the mighty Name above all. Jesus Chris...
When they stare,
I gouge their eyes.
When they talk,
I stitch their mouths.
When they ask,
I deny.
Then I ask,
Why do they not have eyes?
Why can they not speak?
Why do they not ask?
Are they immoral?
Do they not have _souls?_
What about
**Me**
?
Why does destruction follow me?
Why does it chase me?
**_…am I the destruction…_**...
Smoking cigarettes seems bad
Yet I find myself holding my breath
Pretending suffocating myself with a rope
Is not equally damaging
All I ever think about is my sickness
Go an hour, or two, a day without food
Tapping out morse code begging for salvation
I don’t even know morse
I never knew why I was so weak
But I find you telling me helps
If love is warmth
And warmth is zero
Then why am I so fucki...
It was all gone.
Just like that.
The war destroyed the kingdom.
No homes were spared.
Nor were any adults
Parents
Nor were any of the innocent children.
Death and war were a sad, sad thing. Not many survived. Lived.
They all had their whole lives ahead of them and yet the war that should have just stayed between the two armies of soldiers took them all out.
Nothing was l...
There is no separation.
From tendon and bone.
From building and sky.
From you and from home.
The spice in the air.
The sun in your hair.
From your eyes and mine.
From pain and despair.
To destroy is to change.
To change is to live.
To live is to love.
In love we stay the same.
There is no destruction.
No taking light from the sun.
Every piece has its place.
And all together is one...
Acting without knowledge is a sure way to cause harm, but staying focused will prevent you from making mistakes and lead you towards growth and success. The key to a positive future is to constantly work on building and improving yourself, while straying from your path and losing sight of your beliefs will only lead to destruction....
