The tie we set in fire
...,,Another day, another luck",
I said to my dad with swollen water my eyes sucked,
,,Another day, another fun",
He countered with a gentle smile,
without rushing anything.

A Seed
...A seed does not stay the same.
If it did, it was stunted
& died.
A seed planted
In soil
Nourished,
Watered,

Grows
Changes
& shifts
To it’s
Environment.
Growing, growing, growing.

Bringing you back

Some try to find happiness at the bottom of a drink.
Others search for glory and fame
Only to discover they lived their life in vain.
Pain rises...

This is sad, it makes me sigh
Why try to lie?
My guy I spy
That there's more to life
Than getting high
Wasting money and time
To change it, effort is what you must apply
Go ahead r...

Dismantled In the Open
...The show completely whirls me over.
Each device has its stance grow closer.
Dreams are being shattered in some way.
Lead to tying up a chain of fears of dismay.
You can't fly wit...

Shut Down Button

I dreamt I had a shut down button
That switches off the lights in my brain,
My mind screen went blank, it was sudden,
As if God Himself had cut the main,
I closed my eyes and reached Slum...

I Cannot Tie My Laces
...Why can’t I tie my laces right, why can’t I tie them good?
I always get them in a muddle, by not doing what I should.
The first part I can do but the bow is where I fail,
I get the laces in a twis...

...Four walls are caving in
a sinkhole swallows the bedroom
Falling falling falling down
I awake by the sounds of my screams
nightmares raw with the melody of Grimm's lullaby
Blue is the shadows so...

While bending over tying up your shoes
You let go a big fella
Destroying the credenza
You thump your head and don't know who's who...

When I told you I’m not at school
I know I acted like I was so smart,
