The sun sets upon my rainy day,
Thunder crackles, demons cackle—
They know I’ve reached the end of the road.
My eyes burn, heavy with grief,
No longer do I yearn for relief—
Your betrayal lingers, bitter on my tongue.
You, Judas, with your sweetened lies,
Kiss my cheek and meet my eyes,
Guiding them to me with your cunning smile.
They hand you the silver, blood on their hands,
You take the weig...
Gnawing emptiness circling
the hollow cavity trying
to find a place to settle down
but there’s no room amongst
the memories, the flashbacks
of your smile and the trust
in your eyes, the echoes and replays
of what possibly could’ve gone
wrong and what I could’ve done
differently. I’m sorry. When
I betrayed you, I betrayed me....
The emptiness felt at the bottom of the heart,
Stomach muscles turning is a delicate art.
Relooping thoughts in the mind,
A smile drooping, left behind.
Heavy breathless breathing,
Anger’s edge, the jaw is seething.
Harmful disclosures, piercing the soul,
Unspoken words are taking their toll....
the wife
cheats on you
the friend
drunkenly spills your secrets
the babysitter
molests your child
the publisher
tells you no
the boss
lays you off
the boss
hires somebody else
the government
continues to steal from you
the beggar
does, too
and
you go through life
fighting through betrayal
fighting through
trust and hope
and the overwritten
fear and loathing
but you fight
through
because...
Ima bleed you out
Like a sickness
You’re the venom I need it out of my viens
Another dose of ur poison
You tried to bury me
6 feet
But I still breathe
You stabbed me and made me bleed
And yet my heart still beats
You won’t be the death, death of me
You took my memories and used them against me
From friends to enemies
Twisted my fantasies
And made them a disease
Infect my dna
And ...
Damn mayday mayday
I need back up
She broke my heart
That bitch a
Heartbreaker
In mean time I’ll be running the racks up
It’s pill time I’m not cleaning my act up
Mayday mayday
She broke my heart
That bitch a heartbreaker
In the mean time I’ll be getting my racks up
It’s pill time I’m not cleaning my act up
She turned me to a activist activist
Fuck being a pacifist

We entered the room as allies,
Honest with each other,
And united by our foolishness.
The silent classroom, with
Fellow students waiting for
The distribution of test papers.
We swore, moments before,
That we had both failed
To study for the test.
A source of comfort
To my worried soul.
Yet as I scribbled down my
Hopeless answers,
I had a feeling in my
Mind, that my ally
Was lying.
The sound of the...
First you shoved me in a mold
Watched with glee as I shivered from the cold
Then you closed in on me
Saying I had to pay a fee
Promise of daylight and glowing candles
Was diminished by the shadows handles
I begged for a way out
But all you did was pout
Made me feel out of place
If I went my own pace
I knew it all along
Deep inside I knew you were wrong
The stab of the dagger still dug just...
