wrecked. ⚓

The emotion police are wreaking havoc inside of me,
Handing out fines to all of my organs
Because they are underpaid and fear unemployment.
Despair is the chief,
The one that outweighs every other rank,
Even Pain and Happiness and Anger.
He scours my body for the place that needs the most help,
Trekking imperfections through my bloodstream until he finds it.
He takes my heart in his hands and grins at me
Before he runs away with it.
I am worried for what will become of my dear heart
In his rough hands of faulty innocence.
He is not aware of the destruction he can cause
On such a fragile thing.
You, my dear,
You are Despair, the chief.
Unknowing and careless.
Rich, all-having boy,
You do not need to fine my everything.
I have no more to give.
Please, be careful with my stolen heart,
And when you are ready to return it,
I beg that you will keep it in one functional piece.
The rest of me is already wrecked by you.

I believe in John Lennon because he told me all I need is love, & to me that seems pretty accurate.

Lost Inside My Mind

Words, fears, tragedies, my minds painted & written in dark tainted ink. Without my guiding light & the way I think.. I fear I'll blink & disappear & disintegrate & sink.

Start Again

Walls are closing in. Time is running out. My mind is like a puzzle. To impossible to work out. Feelings now mean nothing. Emotions can't be shown. No matter what someone says.

Reality and Normality

Reality stings like the rose of a thorn, As harsh as a rider's whip, As cold and as cruel as the vast Winter's wrath, And as chillingly rash as a hit.

Rueful Games?

I fell to my knees. Bowed my head. Offered up my wrists. Closed my eyes to the red. I'm not even finished or done yet. But too many mornings are in regret. Familiar faces around me last night.

Eyes Of Lies

Lips sealed, Ink written riddles, Art of yours, tongue to wield. Reckless & messy, playing emotions like a fiddle. Looking right in my eyes, Out comes all of your lies.
