Killing Us
In the quiet corners of my heart, I need to cry, to let the shadows part. You want to argue, dissect my pain, As if my tears are just a game. I reach for solace, a gentle embrace, But you counter with questions, a relentless chase. “Why do you...

Premium Member I HEARD DEATH WHISPERING MY NAME
In the shallows of junkyard avenue Where fiery-red stallions are mounted by devils And desolation is your last cigarette I staggered from the weight of her kiss As distant cannons sounded And angels sought shelter Fear is often the lonesome traveler And I drank from her cup, hungrily, thirsty She was my sustenance, my manna from heaven And I courted her with both wine...

WHAT I HEARD ABOUT LOVE a sadistic paradox
What I heard about love, It’s so sadistic and pathetic to the core. They claim, “It’s the judge, jury and executioner” The rumors sounded surreal and so real It’s a mutual tolerance, Of an agreement signed by fools.

No one in the world would say Tell me how are you Do you feel all right today Come tonight, will you?

Premium Member If you had only heard me once
If you had only heard me once then you understand all, that all, what destroyed the goals The castle of our future is under the ocean now, all debris glittering in the deep from the sunlight of the broken souls But you are alive, and a soul is crumbling, departing cloud above of life, he was saying goodbye, the shadow...

I will be heard
Life's got me in a chokehold, but it's not the same asphyxiation that I crave. I loathe when pouring my heart out is seen as "very brave" When it's not bravery that compells me, But hope. Hope for a better future for those who relate And some kind of catharsis for my pain. It does not take bravery to tell a...
