Premium Member The Hopelessness of the Homeless
He is so angry; school is the least of his worries.
Sad are his days; he is nine.
Grandma wants to kick them out; step grandpa hates them
aunt hates them
everyone hates them
they have lived in and out of shelters.
been kicked out - he and his three year...

An Antidote For Hopelessness
When silence comes to surround you
and the past riles up to drown you. 
Call upon your inner wealth
when you’ve become a shadow of yourself. 
Find your way through the disguise 
of all your own lies. 
Separate the real
from all that you deal.
With baby steps face...

Through the Walls of Hopelessness
There is such a chill.
I’d make use of my flesh
as a heart warmer if only
it hadn’t withered to naught.
Bone protrusions meddle with
the rags of skin that remain
to drape about them.
I feel shame board off
the windows peering into
my mind.
What does one do with their rejected help?
Where...

HOPE OR HOPELESSNESS

Can your savior also be your villan
I see my family's eyes can I really tell em
This hurt inside is bursting out
Should I really say what this is about

A slap of the face ,  a burst of the mouth
Out I scream,  but...

My Hopelessness and Loss of Sleep
My sleepless nights
Many days, months, years passed away
I have heard, but … … …..nothing satisfactorily 
Rear case
Few are surviving without food
Some are surviving without sleep.

I am mad both I need
Hard for me in these days
Why I am sleepless?
Why I am getting loss of my sleep?

Tenement Tombs
. for public domain

Every crack in the ceiling,
dries up every river of dreams.
When idle eyes can't view their skies,
wadi minds flood over with schemes.

And every hole in the floors
becomes a bottomless well,
where loveless hearts go wishless,
dry up in a dusty old hell.

The mission bells may...

Old Dreams
Old Dreams

In the evening when the moonlight;
Gently falls on land and sea.
Old dreams come like wolves at midnight;
Come to howl and torment me.

Dreams of youth their glory ended;
Fall behind sweet sorrow's vale
Dreams of love by sorrow riven,
Like the desert winds do wail.

Dreams are foolish, so...

Premium Member Perdition
In tears that feign to be a slave with deeds
That mourn my life and ousts the face of peace
These sad bells ring with cries for now I grieve
And bow my head because I cannot cease

I choose the weight of ton and gloom of ache
To lay...

Irony of Purpose
It is funny! 
Very funny how
A masked preacher can preach honesty; 
And even points at the wrongs with his
Fingers of hypocritical righteousness…

We stare with grim satisfaction
Because the black winged Angel 
Ridding a flaming chariot tells a tale; 
And proclaims that God is love, 
Yet he,...

Last Crimson Swirl
Drowning in self degradation
Deliberate affliction is exacerbating 
Crystalline facade dulling senses 
Normalcy, forgetting our consensus


Score, decennary years within  
point, swirling under skin
Finality, deaths creeping in
Exodus, my last syringe...

To Whom It May Concern
I thought to myself "Is this real or a dream?" 
The wonder at such a moment "can it be? then why me?"
Amazing how deceptive we are to ourselves 
Just to have a companion to love and grow old
The common conception better to have loved then...

Premium Member Jagged Rocks
Do you ever feel like –
You are being driven onto jagged rocks
By an unforgiving tide,
Searching for a refuge,
Searching for somewhere safe to hide?

Feel the world is spinning much too fast
And you are barely hanging on,
Like a vinyl record spinning out of control
And you don’t like...

Premium Member Waning Moon and Blazing Sun
My days and nights merge strangely into one
The waning moon transforms to blazing sun,
and time no longer means a single thing
My sanity has flown on tempter's wing

I see the world in muted shades of grey
My words get tangled up each time I pray
My thoughts are...
