Opioid

One life, two lives three lives, four 
I'm the one you feared knocking knocking at your door.
It's me your friend, I'll make you feel good
I've now made my way to your side of the hood.
I'm used in hospitals, how bad can I be?
You'll find out soon, when you bow to me.
You think it's for fun,

Some Where - Apr 12

Toppled by a bottle, collapsed upon
her painful past, asleep—but well awake!—,
unmoving, but for her mind stirred aquake,
the girl is yawning before her black dawn.

Alone, couched by a burning blanket drawn
over a conscience guilty at the stake,
slipping into the sly hands of the snake,
she sees not clearly the sickening con

which lures her slowly to her deathly

I miss myself

Was it just another fiended out over dose?
Or a dire plea to end her curse and broken hopes?
WHY
MUST
EVERYTHING
ALWAYS
HURT
the daily struggle got me spent
My wings are broken
And my halo been bent
Tryna throw in the towel,
But I'm leaned off this wett
So I stay at the bottom 
til I'm moldy with regrets*

My Josh

My Josh




3 years? How can so much time pass without leaving a trace? I see the effects of father time, on my face, your mother, and your friends. But doesn't the one who matters most get the privilege of growing old?

3 years! My brain knows a cruel secret that my heart refuses to accept. My

the day i woke up from my suicide

it was cold, yet hot,
a fever.
i am surprised,
as though I didn't fill myself with poison
just the night before.
my arm is taped down,
attached to an iv,
four pouches of medication seep into my veins
it burns, 
yet any tears i have left have been taken by my father,
crying in the seat beside my hospital bed,
next to my mother,

for shawn

can't be mad at ya
cause we've come too far
you chose your life's path
shooting dope with no mask
you shoulda known
but you didn't care
like me drinking everywhere
but the fentynol got to you
trying to sneak into heaven
but heaven aint for the blues
it aint for people like me and you
I'll have a hole in my head but
I'll see you

Melancholy Me

Melancholy me, since Kelly's gone away
Far beyond the sea, and gone from everyday
Stage by stage I've wept, but finally, I see
What I must now accept; a melancholy me

It follows and it looms, a threat to my clear sky
Though never quite consumes, insists that I comply 
She's not for me to find, no path for me

Overdose

I’m not overdosed by medicines
I have been overdosed by your love 
Oh! Sorry! by your SMILE

Critical Overdose

I felt the pain as the needle went in.

It quickly faded as my journey began.

No one could sense the loss of my senses.

Walking the clouds with feet on the ground.

Time slowed down like babies crawl.

My eyelids carried the full weight of life.

Coursing ever down into the abyss.

The door closed with my final breath.

I am no

Impossible Overdose

Leading with your heart 
I know what I should not do;
The unspoken rules 
that I am good at bending;
Impossible overdose.

The Center

The cool, blue tiles at the Center were a soft memory of downtown
Where my mom and I once picked red flowers from bushes on Christmas
There was a time when she decided to take me to the Center for lessons.

Coming out of the stall in the bathroom 
I saw a body lay across the floor
I wasn't

Dear Christopher, Love Me

I still remember the day that we met 
A new spark of friendship, it was like Russian roulette 
We stayed in the car, all night to come. 
Could hear our hearts beating, like the sound of a drum.
It was a whispered conversation, for just you and me
You were the lock and I was your key
Oh

Overdose

I tell myself I’m fine,
That i know how to get through,
But the fear is suffocating,
Because I know my words aren’t true,
I tell myself I’ll make it,
Just hold on a little more,
As I pull the needle out,
Curled up dying on the floor.
