  • My Brother’s Keeper

    i wish i knew my brother beyond all that bullsh*t i would have been his keeper defended him in the worst of times and celebrated him in his best  because that’s what real ones do  but i don’t know him, so i see the flaws the cracks in his smile where the venom seeps i…

  • sit with it  get with it before you get lost don’t let them emotions surpass your subconscious  and leave you behind in the race  because before you know it, they’ll be plain as day   playing all up in your face while you panic  so sit with it to begin with  really process all that…

  • Family Pride

    I got family that watched me fall while friends picked up those pieces Water won’t slip through my fingers anymore I’ll let the blood trail down that family tree in its pride, instead  And let someone else stroke through the thick body it creates  It won’t drown me anymore  But I’ll always remember the guards…

  • Girl, Uninterrupted

    Nothing is possibly more profound and of greater volume within silence than a thought  Especially after a rather deafening day That seems to be all the days these days  & every night’s decompression session ends in a rush of depression  I’m so afraid it’ll send my mind into a spiral of regression I’d like to…

  • My mind is an endless abyss of empty right now All quiet and sleuth-ish and shit  I’ve checked out of hotel madness and embraced the quiet night  Sleeping in the wild for the first time, directly under the stars  This lack of conscience, it’s everything I’ve dreamed of  Now, my intention isn’t to hurt anyone…

  • The Trade

    i want this more than anything so much so, i’d give my life i’d trade it in, in a heartbeat trade my heartbeat  for the peace of mind i crave  barter body, soul  but alas  in spirit i must remain alive & brave  for this traipse is tiring all the same but if i covet…

  • Show Me the Sun

    I hate being the end of your day, every single day  I want to be your beginning for once I should disappear into the black and let the moon light your way instead So you’ll understand just how lost you really are, when the stars of my eyes aren’t there to help you drift off…

  • Listen.

    I don’t need to be heard So when I speak, you have to want to listen I’m now indifferent to voices layering over mine  I understand that what I utter is strictly divine  So I won’t waste my time raising my voice  Or twinging my tone to make myself more interesting to you  When my…

  • The Way You Make Me Feel

    How you make me feel doesn’t really matter It’s how I make myself feel that counts You can’t knock me off balance if we’re not out on the same limb  I’m in my own lane  So if you treat me right, that’s just a plus I’m steady over here, so you won’t shake my tree …

  • Touch Me

    They all want to touch me But I want you to touch me Do you understand? Dig deep and embrace the deepest most secret sides of me and caress the scars that have formed there  Love on me  With lips that aim to please within the crevices of every sorrow I have ever cornered; That…
