My Reality
I’ve lived and I’ve loved or so I thought, came out broken, beaten and battered. A false embrace a kiss of lies, All loves games I bought. Tried to be just who I am, Not one would care to ease. Friends, family or chosen mate, Would bring me to my knees Shut my mouth to obstruct the blow, The Anger, fury and wrath, The Inevitable...

Void
In the silence, I hear my own voice A whispered longing, a heart that makes some noise I reach for connection, a gentle touch But find instead a space that's too much The weight of unspoken words, a heaviness I bear A sense of longing that I've learned to share With every step, I search for a place to stand A sense...

Premium Member All we see is a dance of shadows on the walls of our reality
All we see is a dance of shadows on the walls of our reality, a play of light and darkness embracing at the edge of a dream, where forms blend and colors dissolve into unknown shades, and we seek hidden meanings in the reflections of water, in the mirror of the sky. The entire world seems an illusion woven...

trade
I know you wish for a place to be, hidden in the mist, silent as the sea. No fear, no hope, no questions asked. where the nights are not heavy and darkness don't last. could you trade this place For your favourite song? the throbbing of your heart as you run towards the dawn....

Casually Waiting for a Casualty
Forgot to wait for it Fcking got me again Let my guard way too far down Didn't even see this one begin These chemicals got us on lock With the hardest chains to break thru It's like I'm walkin in this haze with you Waiting for the chaos to ensue All it takes is a tiny little attitude And the war stews Explosions all...

Assailed Reality
“…I’m proud of you…” The words sting in vain, The words hit me like a train, The tears crawl to my eyes, The protective barrier dies. “…I’m proud of you…” My world crumbles, My words stumble, My heart races, My throat rages. “…I’m proud of you…” All things lost, All thoughts are at a cost, All people don’t exist, All tears fall without resist. “…I’m proud of you…” Get it together, Get...

Premium Member Living Testament
The scriptures whisper of silent tombs/ Of wisdom buried, lost in gloom/ But I rise, carved from the night/ A witness to the truths concealed in blight/ They say the grave is thoughtless dust/ Where knowledge falters, fades to rust/ Yet voices linger past the veil/ The echoes of the lost prevail/ For darkness harbors secrets deep/ And silent lips still stir and speak/ Their...

What’s the reason to die, the wise know In a thousand voices they confide to me Their valued opinions, but I’m too slow To capture the truth they can clearly see One dies, two are born, and it doesn't matter Who will they become, one may do The same thing, another may do something better Until the third comes to change the...

This Reality We've Made
Breaking night is just another habit now we in a whole different dimension somehow glidin through the cloudy haze Givin a whole new definition to Dazed Tryna find a way out, but so stuck in our ways.

Delusion is my World
Why does delusion seem to be the only reality I know? Almost never catching myself when my mind starts to go Is delusion my real reality though? Snapping in & out of this dimension Which I should mention, Is beyond my comprehension of an Intervention for redemption or reinvention What's your intention? My soul can't take anymore pain... I don't get what you...
