this I dedicate to you Daddy

The eyes I've seen
My entire life
Are smiling back at me
The laugh I've dreamt
Is contagious
As I knew it would be
The words of wisdom
My ears have needed
I'm tireless just listening
And the love that's there
In that heart of his
Was mine all along
The kiss at night
Upon my cheek
Is forever emblazoned there
And the blood in his veins
Same as mine
Gives a history of me

Eckho Scott Poem
Hypnotized by the clicks
And soothed into sleep
I wish this dream would end
This nightmare has begun my hate
And leaves no room for sanity
Lurking always out of sight
Running from demons that aren't even mine
Screaming for someone to hear me
Waking eventually only to find
My monsters are actually real
Living outside my mind
In sunlight
Shadows chasing
Faster faster
Never outrunning this fear
Captured and tortured
And eventually devoured

Eckho Scott Poem
Just fkning Hear Me For A Minute
And it will make you really see
Instead of only guessing
Would you just please
Put me where I belong
On the ground!
In the ground!
Strip me from the flesh
To the bone
And know that I'm sorry
But do it again!
Again
With eyes blackened
By the eternal images burnt
Of my poison to passion embrace
Destroying all that is good
Take the head and heart
Blood dripping fresh
As if able to live through
Unknowing their own death
Tie my hands to my feet
And push me to break
As I broke this gift
Unable to repair
Make the screams pierce my soul
So my pain is infinite
Never to leave me be
Never to comfort
Spread my pieces amongst the stars
And drain my blood to sea
My bones keep buried alive
When will you come see me burn?
Pluck my eyes
Pull my hair
Split my belly wide
Make sure no life can live
Where a monster tries to breathe

Eckho Scott Poem
Hey Gotta Light?!
No I don't mean the flame.
A light to guide me
As I walk away in shame.
A flame to light the fuse
To the bomb ticking inside
That anticipates eagerly
To expose all that I hide.

Eckho Scott Poem
this hollow heart is still beating,
after you ripped out the Love and set it on fire
i'm not sure where to begin
put out the flames or let the embers turn ash
this world keeps moving
as I stay immobilized
there is no safe place anymore
no home where I belong
i feel my blood turn to ice
coursing through this frozen shell
becoming something else
cold, empty, alone
you took the love i gave you,
turned it ugly and mean
you laughed at my tears
and blamed it on me
no one deserves this life,
not even you
but this is what you've left me with
no answers, no reasons, no excuses
just nothing
so you win and i lose
but i wasn't really playing at this game
to win
and I haven't lost what was never mine
I do at least get to witness
your self-destruction
from afar

Eckho Scott Poem
to FIIC love FIIK
entangled in a web of your lies
hanging on by this thread
nobody to hear my cries
only silence and darkness instead
you let me believe you weren't ready
and your focus wouldn't be us
like I was just being needy
that I had no reason for mistrust
I felt like I was going mad
and couldn't understand why
but what I needed you already had
yet still convinced me of your lie
you say I'm wrong with my theory
as to when took place this event
rather my birthday you left me teary
and your heart with your mind just went
so you'd have someone return to your heart
that kept you strung out all these years
and reject this love from the start
refusing to face all your fears
you don't get to keep me this time
holding on for what never will be
what you've done to my love is a crime
you could have been happy with me
but you'll never know cuz I'm done
I won't be the fool for you now
and when pain returns from this one
you won't have to understand how

Eckho Scott Poem
In Darkness
I stumbled, I fell
I was lost
Unable to see where I was
In Darkness
I shivered, I cried
I was cold
Unable to make my way Home
In Darkness I was blind
Confusion filled my mind
Sorrow filled my heart
Doubt filled my soul
Keeping me in Darkness
Even as I felt the sun's rays on my face
Until I felt the Father's love in my heart
And I heard the Father's voice in my ears
Again
And now I can feel the Son's rays on my face
Again
In Love
I am sturdy, I stand
I am found
I can see where I am
In Love
I am strong, I laugh
I am happy
I know my way Home
In Love I am wakened
Wisdom fills my mind
Joy fills my heart
Hope fills my soul
Keeping me in Love
And Light

Eckho Scott Poem
(dedicated to my JonKelly)
cruising every backroad
searching for my sanity
nights spent in the pasture
ain't no room for vanity
endless miles of pipe fence
measured out eternity
grandma's old farmhouse
helped me find serenity
ghost riders flying high
parties in the dark
cooper street's faulty valve
pick-ups in the park
one-ton trailer's shredded tread
setting on fire
buried treasures, buried friends
entangled in barbed-wire
forever summer chasing storms
letting people go
keeping promises, making love
never saying no
happy birthday breakfast calls
laughing at the world
rescue rangers saving pups
and love of a silly ass girl

Eckho Scott Poem
Sacred? Afraid?
Frightened like a little girl?
Then scream !!
Go run and hide from the world.
All is going the same
In this hell we inhabit
On this board of reality.
So run and hide
Cry and sob
As I run as well
Only chasing you
In your dreams

Eckho Scott Poem
As I sit here thinking about
Well about all the things you say
But never do.
But I love you.
So I sit
Time after time
Life after life
Feeling less human
And more animated.
Color me to beautiful again
In your sight.
Not to be set aside.
You always let me go
But I love you.
And I need you.
Not to be my knight in armor.
Just to be mine.
But you love me?
Only when I'm still.
Where you go
I wait.
Where you sit
I stand.
Where you sleep
I guard.
And when you fall
I carry.
So you love me...
Where does that love take you?
Or me?
Am I ever going to be
Just me?
Or us?
Just you?
Or us?
Can you just see outside
These walls of glass?
Too thick to break
And too tall to climb.
If only you cared about you,
About life.
You live every moment in yesterday.
And the sadness takes you away.
Away from here
And there
From us
And them
From you
And me
Please come to me
Please look at me
And try to see YOU
in my love.
My flesh
My song
I see you torn in pieces
Left about and scattered
With no regard for you.
But I see you as no one can
My soul hears your cry
And weeps with you.
