Coming of Age.

Though my love for you remains unchanged, as we sift through the pieces of our past, now estranged. These padded walls and restraints could not even succeed at making me feel more deranged than you did whenever you would act so strange. Our puzzle remains undone, as our story unfolded to reveal that you were not the one. Not to be outdone, I toyed with your emotions, played you like Russian Roulette, and my words were the gun. I pulled the trigger every time I berated you, filled your head with bullets when I would lament that you were slowly making me lose it. My sanity somehow survived the suffering that singed me every time you would avert your eyes. Your gaze phased me more than the grays of my moods that would drown me in sorrow for several stifling days. Yet somehow I stayed amused, bound to you, allowing myself to wrap further around your fingers as if yours was the hand that fed me; but you misled me. Once I became cognizant of the evil and villainous nature it was so easy for you to assume, the walls around me started to cave in, making it hard for me to breathe, as if I was trapped inside the room filled with an unsurmountable and impending sense of doom. Pricked my heart on your loom one too many times for me to resume, or remain within the confines of chaotic control that would consume me, like fire furiously flickers becoming wildfire and spreading through forests ferociously. I am burn victim number one, and you are number two; the damage cannot be reversed now that the pages of our legacy are the reasons why we are both cursed. Revelations of rage run wild, forcing me to remain caged; we are both damaged, although we have finally come of age.

Outer Space

Even in deep space, your love holds me down, Your embrace has weight, and keeps me coming, back around I was on track to be a tragedy, before we collided, like stars You give me gold, you give me gravity, and it's more than fancy cars I was a lonely planet on my own Now you are the sun to my moon I orbit you and feel at home. I was in ruins, but I'm brand new. No distance between us, could break us, or tear us apart. Not miles, or minutes, not even lightyears would be too far for my arms. You light up my galaxy, our universe exists inside my heart. Closer than the others, if I'm Earth, then you are my Mars. You keep me human, keep me golden, keep me green, and grounded. Give me freedom, give me healing, eclipse me, leave me astounded. Celestially, you are the best for me, I rest my chemistry, and let you undress me. Effortlessly, you impress me, effervescent, I'm obsessing. Astro know me, come explore me, Supernova, satisfy my celestial body, cosmo comet, asteroid showe...

Self-Awareness

  With each day I take for granted, I vow to appreciate the next, blessed with the opportunity to once again look, and feel my best.  With my feet firmly planted, my morals maneuver me through all the rest, as I have been granted another day to conquer the world and put my limits to the test.   Some may call me an idealist though I am as real as they come, as I refuse to succumb to the notion that we must all acquiesce to society's rules that really only just make us boring and numb.   I can paint my own destiny, I am the master of my domain, though my moods and momentum may change in an instant, I am grateful that they change at all, as my indecision shows I'm living, and still standing despite my many falls.   Others' attempts to understand me often leave them more perplexed than when they began, I am an anomaly and will not be mislabeled by any other man.   A human being, not one doing, I live and let live just as well, yet I am still often the...

Warrior's Worth

  Dear warrior, while you weather storms through wars waged against your worth, remember, you have purpose, and come from the deep, cool Earth. Although the sinister & sly may have tried to steal the innocence of your smile, you remain; stand your ground & stay, you are so much more than sorrow, although it seems to be a stain. And when malevolent men manipulate through tactics meant to intimidate you cannot let them conjugate you, for they could never capture the courage that has made you. For you were meant to soar, do not let the rest clip your wings to steal your flight. Fly away, or fight, dear warrior– they could never dim your light.
