You’re my Phoenix from the start in flight
You stole my only melody
Made it stronger, baby
Loveshine, I still love you
I love you true
I love you, I do…
What about you?
Only His time tells…
Will you free me like...

Literally feeling like dying of boredom…
Feeling like a freak, unleashing dumb foolishness while drunk on rum

My cranium is about to explode like a volcano…erupting…then, I’m feeling...

Passion and compassion vibes flow
Let the flowers grow, you know?
Yes, you know...because it’s shown
In your oceanic eyes...it’s like an ice cream with its favorite cone...it’s flavorful and all alone

Your voice is depicted in shimmering, scrumptious...

Confused senses...
These heart's emotions...
I don't understand me...
Nor will I understand you...

You were young and
I belong with you and
Maybe you don't think so and
Imagine...imagine...
I'll wait for you...
Because I need you...
Because I want you...

Confused boy hormones...
My heart's...

The world outside my window

I view with one eye open 

while laying on my pillow

Birds are chirping and singing their songs

perched upon their tree of choice 

they know where they belong

I smell the coffee brewing...

Alone, surrounded by seventeen million humans who call New York home
In a rut, depressed, searching in pain and in vain for hope

A crisp fall day, I venture north to play
The Adirondack valley, mountains borne from...

My mirror breaks, I pick up a shard,

But find it bizarre that all I see is nothing but scars, 

My veins filled with black tar, shaking, beaten and starved,

I carve your name to my arm,...

  My desire is an eternally burning, churning ember to deliver you from harmful, vicious weather
Follow my footsteps to the unknown and make progress to make us feel greater – 
Lost satisfaction and angst…..

Your kiss-aids on wounds is but an epic fail 

We had the perfect time of our lives
Till unhappiness and sadness arrives
Lost in the perplexity of our fantasies
I have fed the fires of your lust disease

Darkness...

They say that a tree is known by its fruit
But there are many trees whose fruits are unknown
Apple bearing pear and pear bearing apple
And a cherry blossom tree cannot bear sunflowers
"Keep out of trouble now"...

~***Part One of Vanish Away the Anguish series…read Part Two, Leaving You. Thanks***~

It’s horrendous…
This loneliness
Finding it hard enough to extraordinarily express
Myself when people don’t mind how big of a mess
I’ve been in…for an awful long,...

On a cobblestone street,
cracked and ill-repaired, 
I rifle antique shops 
  for a jeweled music box 
     to cradle my empty locket. 
I wish to drop it

I'm singing along with this song
I so want to belong either right or wrong

Possibly, I've been wrong all along, baby

Incredibly tired of losing it over and over
I long to...

For countless delights have arisen, out of the written word;
And we only knew crude...

Easier said than done…but it’s required of us to have leisure time once in a great while! I have no problem with that whatsoever!
Laze around and...

I was weeping a river (felt so sad tonight)
I was grieving forever (it seems all night)
I’m sorry I’m not your precious sunset and I’m so upset, so upset (I bet you are too)
I’m sorry that...

Her head was past dwelling in the clouds
Way up high, and at times she would fall back to the ground.
She wore stars in her hair, milky way’s...
