What Hurts Most

A world in which love desecrates
A mind into such empty life
Is one you would most likely hate
And stab into yourself a knife
Or one in which you reach for stars
But they still seem so far away
It's hopeless and might break your heart
Or possibly could end your day
Maybe a life-long obsession
one in which you'd trade your life to gain
an unknown questionable possession
only to find out it isn't yours to obtain
What if it's an ultimate devotion
one that kept your life in line
but long ago suffered an erosion
so have you lived a lie this whole time?
As for I, the pain that beats them all
Is endless love
in which i have allowed myself to fall.
endless love, an endless fall

Lunch Exile

I'm in agony!
As the energy drains out!
Cruelest lunch, arrive!

History

Beneath the rubble
Where ancient life is buried
Knowledge is alive

Nowhere In the Ocean

Waves wash up and down
The tide keeps churning around
I seek distant shores

Luna

Moon doth shines its best
Up night sky mid-night hour
New moon, red eclipse

Paradox of Love

Hate Me
Look at me and despise me
Disapprove of my existence
Set your thoughts of me down onto
an abyss of empitness
Consumed with endless infernos of 
flaming fire
Let hatred become the air that
you breathe
Let it become the energy that you
consume
Let it run through your body
as blood runs through your veins
Show no love, no affections
but leave your desire for me to burn
for me to bleed
For my blood to rain upon the surface of
this planet
Let every ounce of my
history disintegrate
Let every thought of me
fade away
Leave me in the dust
Let me in the wind
Clench onto that hatred 
Let it rise and boil up
Let it vaporize me into thin air
When you think of me 
Imagine what would life become
when demons walk the earth
When you dream of me
Dream of what the world would be 
without life and all its worth
Hate me
Because I love you

Damned Limerick

In a world where love is hatred
I'm the only one who makes it
Alive and well
Enjoying hell
But no one else can make it

Whip-Lashed Doggy-Tail

Never had a feeling
like this ever felt so degrading
back and forth with mind and heart 
continuously racing
bumping side-to-side
along the walls just grating
against with skin 
and pain eminating
from flesh, becoming bare
the eye can see what looks
to be painful as if
a bundle of hooks
tearing apart and away
the body to pieces
though still going back
still moving on
this love has in it
something terribly wrong
Why must one endure such
agonizing pain
how can one keep going back 
knowing what this love contains
whip-lashed over and over again 
and again 
crawling back towards this love
this love is a doggy-tail
wagging between it's legs

Fight Or Flight

To stand and fight
or plan to flight
Taken back to a time with families and friends
How we talked and talked and their feelings started spilling in
About the problems they had and the crap they've been in
About how abusive and intrusive their boyfriends have been
Causing my mind to blow right off of its bin
Letting such rage pulsate through my veins
Becoming a river overflowing with hatred and pain
With choices to make
And pathways to take
To decide without hate
So my mind can fly straight
To solve this problem they're in
Help keep them from suffering
And just release them from their pain
Prevent them from going insane
So I think and I thunk ,I thought through and through
A lot of some stuff, I was setting to do
Until finally I knew
Just what I should do.
Life is life
And it's what we go through
So I'm just gonna sit back
Just watch and not do
Not running away
But waiting it through
To fight or to flight
I'ma cut right down through the middle
Be neutral for a little
until its time to play the fiddle

"lost"

i'm lost....By choice?
              By fate?
              By emotions?
             By love?
I'm lost... unsure
               not confused
               not puzzled
I'm lost.

I've said all i wanted, all i had to say
i expected a response, an utter sound
but got none
The words weren't wrong, 
or deep,
it wasn't even a riddle at all.
I expected a response...but got none.
An answer is all i want.
it doesn't have to be right.
it doesn't haveto perfect... just an answer.
it's what i need to settle my mind,
                      to cure my heart,
                      to fix my soul.
I'm not insecure,i just feel exposed.
what i feel now is like i'm without clothes
I feel naked,
         bare,
         vulnerable.
I'm out in the open, a sitting duck
My skin feels antsy, as i wait to be shot
So shoot me now, for i am lost.
