Nurture Not The Hurt

Warm
I've been finding comfort in the unseen. All that it asks of me is that I believe. A single wreck disabled all the night. Swept right off the table of my life.

Slumber Crawl
Fall is slowing to a crawl. I'm moaning prayers and confessions. Ongoing, a given direction. So, now I'm disarmed, stripped of my barbs, relieved of my scars. Holding high and lowly, with a love so holy. I've been all we are. Could be - but it never is, what we let ourselves … Continue reading Slumber Crawl
Finished?
Seeing just a little more, since morning, now I realize, or think that I at least have opened my eyes. Letting go of all I've known, time to see how much I've grown; to the edge and beyond, the right and the wrong. Here lies true beauty, in this wide eyed girl, in awe … Continue reading Finished?
Been Through Hell
Bracing myself for the impact, amazed at the walls as they go rushing past, elated - euphoric - when I don't crash; like I've done so many times before. I won't be restrained - remain in place, a grin spreads across my face. Through Hell I come home, a battle won - the war … Continue reading Been Through Hell

Holding close to closing, press the button for … Continue reading Bitter Water Healin’
One Time
So wrong - So right - Never mattered in any scheme I've ever been a part, adds another facet to the shard stuck in my heart. Begged forgiveness, but good and evil just melted away.

Anywhere but Forward
Stuck in neutral, these bloodshot eyes say it all. Severed from energy, caught in starvation's thrall. Rebirth the anti-Christ. Hang and bleed. It don't matter no more. Just an excuse, or alibi away from me to go anywhere but forward. Want to let go, but the nothing is so comforting. If only … Continue reading Anywhere but Forward
Grinning
Oh no, it ain't easy, to play the fool so well and fall into the pitfalls of your funhouse every time. Hope it pleases you to watch me laugh and tumble down upon my face; degraded on the incline. Burn my hands - I grip life tighter Smash me down - I climb back … Continue reading Grinning

You Are Weak
You are weak. Always given over, yet you never change at all. Just stay a punk, keep sucking up to some other motherfuck, who won't be there to catch you when you fall. You're so afraid, fear's driven you crazy. Salvation ain't that easy, at least not when you're me. Survival is not the … Continue reading You Are Weak
Dream With me
This state of mind remains falling from grace each day, but in the night it shines; dreams the world away.
