Blast your music As loud as you want Eyes on the road Voice to the sky I don’t care Just drive One destination One thing at a time No more juggling Let computers do the multitask While I do this Let the music play And drive Eyes on the road Just one thing at a […]
Familiar Smile
That look you give Your eyes focused on me A grin on the brink of a smile Cheeks growing with blush A slight head tilt As your smile breaks You feel it and turn to hide your face Then suddenly you pull the hair covering your face Put it behind your ear A brief look […]
Wandering
Lost in questions Lead by rage Fueled by anger Where am I in all of this Poisoning myself with everyone’s views Tasting everyone’s hate It drains me to live fueled by destruction Words clogged in my mind Streets stained with blood Cruses coming from both sides Who’s right, who’s wrong When will we have a […]
Human Looking
Pain makes us choose Mistakes make us doubt Loss makes us remember Too many thoughts Some people are often forgotten Frustration causes stress Forcing us to search for answers, Either in the stars, In the past Or in the Gods We’ve lost We’ve forgot that we are human Not suits, nor uniforms, nor labels We […]

Searching For My Voices
Words are incoherent Clouded at times Just an array of noises No clear thought Searching in the darkness Afraid of what I might find Words that elude me Yearning to say so much No clue what to say first Thoughts bombarded Curled in a corner too much noise to take Needing help A direction from […]
A Peaceful Burn
Embers burn slow They glow in the night Moon hiding behind the clouds The woods crackles Ash raises and burns out Smoke disappears into the night Wood can be heard drying The fire shoots higher Widely out of control Still contained within it’s walls I can’t stop looking It’s light draws me The sounds engulfs […]
