Darkness surrounds me. I’m in over my head. The voices remind me I have made my bed.My demons devour me in a never ending sea.Maybe it’s all make believe. My hopes, My dreams I let slip away.My body is slowly in a state of decay.I pray that I quit, someday I may,until then, this deadlyContinue reading “Some Call It”

Different Kind of Poetry
I wanted to try a different kind of poetry despite my fondness of rhyming. I performed a Google search and it showed me every kind of poem known to man.Determined to succeed I picked one that felt good. Surely it can’t be that hard, right? By the second paragraph I was still looking for theContinue reading “Different Kind of Poetry”
The Mighty Toe
Silence echoes through the walls.No pitter patter through the halls. A blanket of darkness hinders my eyes.But this is a path I’ve walked a thousand times. One step, two step, three step, four. One step more and I’ll be at the door. Instead of open space like I know, my mighty toe finds a Lego.Continue reading “The Mighty Toe”

I open my eyes and the devil is already telling me lies. Mad at the world for just being twirled. Every step I take filled with hate. Everything I touchtakes too much. Am I going insane?Is something wrong with my brain? Maybe I need to eat or put up my feet. Do I need aContinue reading “Abyss”

Hush
An urge to write takes control but my mind seems to resist.Something is amiss. Words on paper, pictures in my head But its all just the surface of why I bled. Words scurry from the lead not wanting to be read. Each time they are brought to light it always means dread.Unheard, unseen, my bridlesContinue reading “Hush”
Daughter of the One True King
You said child won’t you trust me,I’ll give you what you need.I’ll make you whole again.Let me show you where to begin. At first I tried to fight it.Like Jonah I tried to run and hide.I thought I was too far gone, my sins far too wide. But I heard your voice whisper, child doContinue reading “Daughter of the One True King”
