Life

Scars won’t heal 
Love can’t solve inner lust with 
a prejudice heart 
Pain can only be solved by 
anomalous feeling 
Happiness won’t last without 
desire for one’s heart 
Sorrow only fills the void with 
unapt options with time 
Lust won’t solve love if love 
isn’t present within the heart 
Death is temporary although lasts 
for eternity 
Passion isn’t love, lust or admiration 
it’s simply exceeding inept truth of 
emotional pain 
Life is eternal without love,lust passion or feelings 
Be mindful of your soul 
at all levels of oneself 
Ascertain throughout life with 
all passions gaining upon you 
Stay true loyal and amorous 
towards one soul 
As death draws near sing
ones life bereavement 
Letting your soul omit your self’s 
departure with grace 
Sing your death song and 
be forever gone

Unrequited

"The Friend"
I own this stereotype.
Heavy in belly, soft tall demure,
Trying to saint the boxing sinner.
Mother loved, father manly worried,
I wander passion for unrequited state.
The socially unapt gazer, debating intent.
Waiting on the whom,
To confess rapture, for my scenes.

Then it came, love.
But time shorts bliss.
I slowly bleed its demise.
Insecurities constricted affection object.
With every needy utter.
How addictive,
The insecure mind, as it yammers meekly,
"do you still love me".

The dreamer price,
Is the distorted I,
with my grey speckling on my
"want to be cool " chin.
I dream less, and bitter for it.
When friend to lover, then told a mistake,
I leave hungry, Partner Full.
