Deserted
...You inserted the needle into my veins…
Now, I’m damaged goods that dry on
You sucked up my blood oh so insane

to leave, ready to ascend
then hover away
on the dusked wings of

I'M Feeling It Chapter 1: Unneeded Greed
...I feel numb beneath this skin…
This skin from deep within…
I’m thin and then…
I’m fat with loath again…

The deflowered sun shone down
with those eyes of a goldfish
'KATH’, got a light; 'EER’ lit a room;
And ‘AH’ illumined the night
No sound of a thing in your pres...

Blamed
...This love, love is so indifferent...
When I used to be the spoiled playboy,
My heart scorned me yet I endured the dallies.
