Short Deteriorated Poems

Seemed like a fantastic day till I got out of bed
Deteriorated to the point it resembled moldy bread
Not a good analogy
Better than snotty
That reminds me of The Donald quite honestly instead...

Watching Rose Bowl and Horrible Huskies

Performance Has Deteriorated

While we had waited and waited,
Performance sadly deteriorated,
Takles are missing,
And death kissing,
And opposers gladly celebrated.

And as you decapitated me
I finally realized who I was
Simply a part of you
That had deteriorated into
Broken dreams and fireless fights
When the shadow was cast
I would disappear into the back
Lost for now, but begging
To come out
And I want to thank you
For mutilating my soul...

The Color of Love is purple?
The color life is red?   Blood

The color of breath is translucent!
Tropical aqua blue!  Life Air

The color of my skin doesn't matter?   Physical Matter
Because when this physical plane is deteriorated it goes from black or brown white...
~
Alas the color of my life (my Soul) is Christ!

The red bucket in my bathroom 
suddenly one day broke. 
Day by day it deteriorated 
till it was revoked. 
I needed some plastic 
to melt for some work; 
the red bucket was chosen 
being already shirked. 
Little by little, in few days, 
the red bucket was cut. 
From being a proper bucket, 
it was not even its butt. 
It sits there in a corner 
waiting to die some more. 
Unwanted, rejected, 
it's not a bucket anymore....

The wrenching from within me is unbearable. 
Hair, all along my arms, raise. 
As if static electricity had been the entirety of me.
All the while, the skin grows cold, clammy.

I'm unable to confess my deteriorated state.
It's a sickness unlike any other; inexplicably daunting.
To whom may console me? Alleviate my pain?

I seek release,
 from such a cumbersome,
 and execrated imprecation.

My 'conflict-averse' paranoia....

I was aware
when I walked in
it was a task 
your heart to win

but like ice
frozen and cold
I held your heart
and you were sold

two soul mates collide
with such a power
you could not hide
I was your tower

all in good cause 
I tell myself
but from day one
deteriorated health

eyes that light up
when I look so deep
I hope you know 
its hard to sleep

I feel sick
I cannot eat
memories of you
I will surely keep...

Wrappings long have been trashed 
A few nics encompass some character 
Sunlight drenched a deteriorated discoloration 
But still bravely I'm standing tall

Dark eyes forlorn for affection
As time's quickly winding down
A misfit struggling for acceptance
Watching others merrily marching on

Basement bottom feelings placate
Another piece of lead has broken off
Retired metal wheels of destruction 
Soon to be lying in a cloud of dust...

I hate myself
I’m all alone
And so I must
Stop the aching.. The beating.
My heart.

My home is now a chair,
My chains on wheels.
My torture, my mobility,
Yet my self is still.
Useless.

My love is gone,
Slit his wrists. 
I found him.
I’m still here.
He is Gone.

I’ve got AIDS.
The worst degree.
My pills keep me alive.
I hate them.
Depend on them.

My body is decapitated.
My soul deteriorated.
My mind senseless.
My pain..
Eternal...

Time to off heal wounds
Go find maturity
Seek about respect
Confide within confidence
Love compassion while it breaks
Brink resides threat held up danger
On the brink of a break
Promise pleading
Case the joint
Lend aid to your wounded
Self less than more
More less than selfish
Innocuously alone
Marooned
Isolated
Internally deteriorated
Dismembered remains
Officially remembered
Forgotten my passing
Time to off heal wounds
