Finally Human.

2011-12-17T21:22:00.000-08:00

I think I have finally regained that feeling of being human.
Opposed to the feeling of robotic reactions to interactions.
Excited about the future, and nervous about the traction.
Hoping to find the final piece of mind to complete mine.

regret.

2010-11-21T20:07:00.000-08:00

Trying not to think about her

Drowning my thoughts in dark liquor

But it’s hard not to wonder if love heals the heart quicker

And if it does I want no part; I like being broken hearted

Because loneliness makes me see the beauty in where we started

How is it, no matter where I go, you seem to follow?

Catching me unexpected, memories hard to swallow

Smile etched upon your lips, behind it hides a frown

The same face that I make when whenever you come around

I’d rather feel awkward then feel alone

Remember the flowers when I left you when you were still at home?

Of course you do, they won’t let you forget

Real Emotion Grown Rapidly Earnest & True

I HATE MYSELF for believing you actually cared

2010-11-06T20:47:00.000-07:00

I feel entrapped in, this world we are wrapped in
Placed in a box, I can't leave but they can enter
I can hear my inner voice clapping
While a chorus of boos is just my depression's reaction
To the positive fashion of which my ego has fastened
He envies my happiness, says it is not happening
But from nightmares I wake up to dreams
And from night terrors I wake up to screams
What does this all mean?
If life is but a dream, I'm on shits creek without a paddle
But I don't focus on energy on things beyond my control
I just keep moving forward, you just have to let them go
To all the friends I have lost, your true colors were starting to show
You can throw dirt on a diamond but in the right light it is gunna glow

Buddha Speaks.

2010-10-30T20:44:00.000-07:00

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him. -Buddha

Missing Hearts

2010-10-29T22:04:00.000-07:00

It's hard to find the pulse of a heartbeat when your whole heart is missing.
You have wholeheartedly searched for it many times in the faces of possible flames that were always quickly extinguished without hesitation.
While you enjoy playing with fire, no fires have set a blaze the candle inside your esophagus.
Her soft lips are the gateway to conversation and possibly a soft kiss.
She holds your heart in her palms halfheartedly and deservingly so.
You once broke into her heart even though she would have given you the key.
Then you made the mistake to run and leave like a coward; when your approval meant most.
To be fair, your judgment had been victim of gossip from the glossed lips of the guilty third parties in question.
To follow one's mind in area of affairs was an error when surely you must have known this was a matter of two hearts.
When two hearts break, tears leave the eyes of angelic faces.
When two hearts break, the stars are no longer in alignment.
When two hearts break, Cupid is responsible cleaning up the pieces.
When two hearts are truly meant to be side by side like a locket as one; they will continue looking for the missing half, even after the aftermath of love forced trauma.
Is it only after the heart breaks that then the heart is capable of finding another mate to mend it back together.

Drops like Stars

2010-10-28T21:31:00.000-07:00

We plot, we plan, we assume things are going to go
A certain way and then they don’t and we find ourselves
In a new place, a place we haven’t been before, a place
We never would have imagined on our own,
And so it was difficult and unexpected and maybe even
Tragic and yet it opened us up and freed us to see
Things in a whole new way
Suffering does that—
It hurts,
But it also creates.
How many of the most significant moments in your
Life came not because it all went right, but because
It all fell apart?
It’s strange how there can be art in the agony…
-Rob Bell

Un-Thinkable

2010-10-27T22:42:00.000-07:00

Young women making big mistakes, another unplanned baby
They out living wild, like most single ladies
But they are only 18, so they heed no consequence
And they are only 18, so no condoms meant
The summer spent indoors with no bikinis'
My mind is spent trying to make sense of all these things
Girl I could have married, the one up in my dreams?
No probably not, but she could have came close, doors close
Others open, but we don't always like we find, behind
Girl let me ease your mind, unwind, like some cassette tapes
Was it really worth it? Tell me was the sex great?
I know no one's perfect and I would always text late
You sure came close, it's a shame we had never date
They got me on a guilt trip like I put you in this position
If I told you I had fallen for you would you ever listen?

Simple Life.

2010-10-24T11:31:00.000-07:00

When ever did life become so simple?
Wondering about partying.
Social scenes I was never in before I am starring in.
Hopeless scenes surrounding the lead actor as the film rolls.
The price we pay for happiness sometimes has it's grim toll.
And my thin soul, is etching out emotions as if were a pencil.
Numbness mutes the thought behind every detail.
My only escape can be purchased through every retail.
Searching for love, I only I mean well with every female.
I have never regretted anything I've done, just what I haven't.
And the faces reflecting in my eyes could be in beauty pageants.
But their looks are deceiving just like some mannequins.
Morality questions if I'll join the dark side like Anakin.
They tell me that I can't win.
I am my only friend.
Life is but a dream, when I wake up does it end?

Sadistik - Searching for Some Beautiful OFFICIAL VIDEO

2010-10-21T21:18:00.000-07:00

My head aches, and feels the blunt vice grips
hanging over my tequila sunrises
Confide and write this to de-scribe a love life
that's feeling love lifeless
I'm the type that'll cherish frozen winters
stare at snowy blizzards and take it to heart
Then break it apart, I carry hopes and blisters
Cutting heart strings with a pair of broken scissors
I'm still trapped in a middle school slow dance
Stepping on toes in a mistletoe romance
Misanthrope, discomposed who holds hands
with grief...Kissing hope with no chance, but me
I'm just searching for some beautiful
a dream that I can catch And a person who's unusual
When I find her, I'll try to face the tide
Fight the hurricane, and tidal wave, goodbye…

And I watch all the spectrums of angels
Choking to death on the septums and halos
Bread crumbs and fables, why change?
I hang at the ends of the pay phone
With no change or number to reach
What blankets the sky I slumber beneath
Under the speech, this song's about hope, joy, love and defeat
All it takes is a peaceful autumn day
For you to be happy and me to call it fate
Even after a fucked up childhood, I'm still tryin'
To believe in God and grace

I try to get a piece of peace and sit and listen infinitely
Holdin onto benefits, and isnt it so innocent? We
Try to find another time and underline the cynical
Its pitiful we run and hide and undermind the innermost
When intervals of miserable will find a figure four
And force the phyiscal and inner soul to find a bitter form
And form another time and place where you can go and be so suitable
When all I wanna do is go and search for something beautiful, in me

I died once, and I knew that it was suitable
I died twice, and I sang it like a musical
I died again when I thought that the noose would hold
Everything I love in the search for some beautiful

I died once, and I knew that it was suitable
I died twice, and I sang it like a musical
I died again when I thought that the noose would hold
Everything I love in the search for some beautiful

beautiful face.

2010-10-19T12:43:00.000-07:00

Who would have known such a beautiful face could cause such misery?
Memories, memories, surprised that you still remember me
No verbal communication but your eyes they say enough
Furtive lips frown through smiles, pain don't it let it show
Feelings found abandoned in the crevice of a broken heart
Planted like a seed as a reminder that love still exists
Somewhere inside behind a wall of security, insecurities
Temptations, lust, and lies
Life becomes so superficial
What ever happened to conversations about nothingness?
Remembering every detail,
Phone rings,
Your voice,
Soothing, but I can't breathe well
Lone dreams,
Your face,
So sweet, but I can't sleep well
Who would have ever thought seeing you look so lovely would be hell?

Power of Positive Thinking

2010-09-27T09:34:00.000-07:00

"Your life is but a reflection of the predominance of your thoughts.”

I can't stress the truth in this seemly absurd idea.
The universe seems willing to grants you your wants and your misery.
This has been extremely prevalent in my life during the past week.
The key is focusing on what you desire,
Blocking out the seeds of doubt and negative thoughts.
If you let your mind trouble you, you will become more troubled.
But if you let your mind relieve your burdens, your luck will be doubled.

Room Full of Rumors

2010-09-25T20:20:00.000-07:00

Wandering through a building full of rumors with no walls.

Hands in the shape of an M's & L's .

Ears burning from the deafening judgement.

Do you know what it's like to have been through hell?

The jury of peers piercing gaze ruptures his composure.

Has him off foot, stumbling for his words.

The truth is irrelevant. The audience wants a story.

The spotlight shines with the intensity of a lone moon .

Green stares followed by elevator handshakes.

Mean glares followed by marred remarks.

The truth is irrelevant. The audience wants a story.

Jealously is prevalent. Non fiction is boring.

Awaiting trial he sweats profusely as if a camel herder.

He has experienced mental anguish far beyond his years.

This 'crime' was merely a rebirth of life.

But, the stones shatter the mirrors of the accusers.

The audience wants a story.

Doing no wrong, he enters a guilty plea,

The judge knocks and agrees,

He is guilty.

The truth is irrelevant.

He is guilty.

The truth is irrelevant.

He is guilty.

The truth is irrelevant.

He is guilty, of being

Taste of her lips still inside the pocket of my check

Hints of nicotine and saliva
Imprint of her fingertips on my torso
Her kisses embed in my lips as a signature
Porcelain skin with an angelic glow
Written on her ribs in starless letters
"what you run away from, only stays with you longer"

Shadows

2010-08-29T21:29:00.000-07:00

Mirror reflects distant strangers
I expect the latter would be used to anger
But the other perceives it as useless anger
I use this anger and hold it, mold it
Into something beautiful
The wrath simmers like bacon on a stove top
Until the grease off the stove, pop!

I'm told my soul ought to behave
My shadow is off on it's own, a young rebel
So when I go for a run it's ahead of me
He is imitating my persona
Together as one, but now he is there instead of me
The hijacking of identity, vehemently
My featureless reflection guiding me into new directions
So when he speaks there is no consequence
And when I speak there is no common sense
Shadows don't feel, they don't revel
Shadows merely act upon one's will
I've become a shadow, so I'm most real
When my eyes hear R.E.M.
When I awake here we go again...

Feeling like I show no emotion

Really life’s like big one cold ocean

Endless possibilities

You just gotta know someone

Ex friends jealous like I owe something

Guess this is because I show nothing

2 years so much change I hold nothing

2 peers I’m a shell of an old someone

Hell I’ve matured into a grown someone

I’m trying to live it up, thrown some fun

But there is never enough, confetti*

Silence is golden. But my surroundings have left me broke.

Deaf ears shake in fear of a symphony of static noise.

I am on a journey to nowhere and content.

Numbers are evil.

The one with the most money has the most power.

Have you ever felt connected to another person? Like a soul connection.

You know that one person that will never leave the crevices in your mind, soul mate.

People have changed faces so rapidly in the past few years, I no longer feel.

Numbness.

Darkness.

Blackness.

Comfort.

Routine has rerouted the circuit breaker in my back.

2010-06-07T21:44:00.000-07:00

Living in the moment, will leave you jaded when you can't hold it
Picture it, when you have no pictures to touch and make reflections
Searching for souls with a handout reaching for that connection
Sleepless nights got me thinking about a lot about depression
Like what does it take for me to be content with every breathe
No more fantasizing about death, drive a car off a bridge
Never serious, though if you were ever there then you'd know just how it is
Grown but still as kids, heart know no misses, hands covered in blisters
Trying to tear these curtains into pieces, only to peer behind and find
The wizard of Oz is mirage, just false hope, time to realize
Only magic can be found in the man and the mirrors eyes
Or true love which in disguise will lead you to your demise
You can fall like some of the guys or begin your rise
You can fall
You can fall
Bruises and broken bones

You can fall

But you'll never be alone

But with me stayed my residuals my issues that

Got two eyes but can't see at all

We were joined at the hip until 4^th grade

That’s when I got glasses and girls became the cool thing

So I was replaced by the tall kid and a bunch of leeches

We still hung out my best friend and I

But we grew apart

5^th grade came we’d hang out after school but at school things changed

No longer first picked in football

Second to the dopey kid who was tall

Two years we didn’t share classes

Begged me to return to gifted my presence was immaculate

But I had no interest in added stress

I just sat in my normal class taking spelling test

End of the year party

I was invited but who wasn’t

End of the year field trip for the kids with orange belts

Wasn’t enough room for me in the hotel room

Without me budging in

I thought we’d be friends forever

Go to same university

Now you are in a universe without me

That university

I thought we’d be friends forever

This photograph won’t even last foreverI miss my best friend from elementary school

Raindrops

2010-05-17T20:25:00.000-07:00

Awaken to raindrops on a sleepy window still
Wondering if sometimes God cries like a widow mourning still
Got my eyes hazed wondering if I'd woken up
Wonder how much could change if I had only spoken up

Shoulders work like coat hangers keep my clothing up
You can't control how people perceive you don't give a, hush
They will believe what they want no matter what you tell them
So I don't speak, actions echo like I am yelling

Looking to test new waters, Ferdinand Magellan
But this Columbus compass has me anchor sailing
They say the best discoveries are made by mistake
So I take the long way home, driving by the lake

Driving by her house, I'm driven by fate
I wish that we still did conversate
My life is marred by a series of wrong decisions
Feeling conned by fate, maybe I just never listened

Well now I'm all ears, patience has been purgatory
I've been locked in a room with my thoughts, sharing stories
Speaking to myself, body colliding with padded walls
Ball and chains make it to where I can't stand at all

Slowly turned in to a scream

I don't know where you came from
And I dont know where you've gone

Amen omen,can I find the place within
To live my life without you?

If I Died Tomorrow

2010-05-10T21:19:00.000-07:00

If I died tomorrow

Waking up to just another day

Aches in my hands pop pills relieve pain

Turn on the light box half asleep in one sock

Trying to forget the tale last night’s dreams brought

If I died tomorrow

Would it be on my couch, overdose of medication

I thought it was one pill, not seven doused

Or would it be from an accidental mistake

Guardian angel overhead appeared but it was too late

If I died tomorrow

Would anyone show sorrow

Besides my mother who told me we are on time borrowed

Speaking in tongues Lord why did you take him

He was too young first and eldest son not even 21

If I died tomorrow

I’d have a lot of questions

Like did I take my own life as a result of depression

Did I suffer to the point of mercy

Why did God finally want to immerse me

If I died tomorrow

And the world stopped spinning

Would I then get your attention

Would you pause and pray for a minute

Or would you just forget him

In my final hours will lights flash

In my final hours will my night past

In my final hours will I turn into ash

In my final hours I won’t last

In my final hours will I transcend to the stars

In our final hours will they remember who we are

In our final hours will we regret all we have done

In my final hours I will have known I am one

If I died tomorrow

How would yall react

Would y'all paint the walls black

Grief and mourning the next morning

Tears drop from faces porcelain

Like its storming through their cracked pupils

Emotions over take them like a hijacker

Feel the rush like a linebacker

Hold em back like cuticles, just hold em

If I died tomorrow

Who anyone notice ? Would they believe that I wrote this

Would they see how I viewed the world as my opus

Or just forget yeah right live goes on

But this is the last you’ll hear from me

If I died tomorrow

They show love, but what is love?
They show affection, hugs, and in return receive shoulder shrugs
They dap you up, hand shakes, head shakes, man's fake
Looking for acceptance through the liquid, man made

Looking at the throne, symbol of authority

Looking for a smile, receiving a blank stare stair

Looks like there is something to build on here

Curtain Call

First they try and friend you.

Paint a portrait then frame you.

Your life is like a work of art no wonder why they hang you.

We were brothers until “I don't want to hang dude”.

It’s gotten to the point that I begin to hate you.

Act is over; take a bow, close the curtains.

Were we really ever friends? I just can't be certain.

Was I there to entertain your life circus?

"How did Mandela get the will to surpass the everyday
When injustice had him caged and trapped in every way?
How did Gandhi ever withstand the hunger strikes and all?
Didn't do it to gain power or money if I recall..."

Twilight is like sunshine in a stars mind
And a star will question the authority of the Moon
Like "you are nothing without the Sun"
The Moon replies "I am not the only one"

Lost

2010-04-22T21:08:00.000-07:00

Lately I feel I’m headed down the wrong path

Surrounded by destruction

My shattered ego dealing with the aftermath

Searching for my soul, but Buddha just laughs(h)An(h)att(h)a

Surmounted by these expectations

Doubting my own claim to greatness

Sitting in this throne, I made this

Imaginary world to play with

Distance

2010-04-22T13:23:00.000-07:00

In the company of others feeling so distant

This canopy of identity depends on whom I've been with

I'm a chameleon changing in an instant

With dreams to make a million and burn it like some incense

They say I succumb to too much pressure

Sorting through the jewelry, I left upon my dresser

Looking for my chain, I hope it does impress her

Cause its the only heart I got and to Cupid I'm the jester

Now, I'm saying more with the lesser

Unsure, insecure, I guess, I’m a guesser

A guest in my friend’s place of residence

Residue on my money wondered where it’s spent

Ain’t it funny this ain’t how we planned it

Life so off course I coulda sworn I’d crash-landed

On another planet, cash in hand granted

And I admit I past I had been taking it for granted

Now hitting rock bottom laying face down in granite

Wish Upon a Star

My future is brighter than Iris

In her eyes rest the horizon

She can see the stars in my breathe

I speak universal truth that is timeless

She wants to wish upon a star

I tell her your looking at one

Forever Numb

2010-04-13T20:49:00.000-07:00

When old friends reside in photographs
Folded laughs are all we have left to hold on to, grasp
New photos arise jealously goes without saying
I can see it in they eyes
Hear it in my smile yeah you can see it when I speak
I am in denial that we have parted ways
I am missing a part of me
You put blood into my arteries
Now I bleed but no love's lost
Your forever in my heart
Just another missing part
But if your ever come back around
That is a start, but I'm gone

Got a new social circle
I'm a standout so I'm outside
Looking inside, accepted but thin "Hi"s
Aren't the same, this desert bares rain

Reincarnation

2010-04-11T20:01:00.000-07:00

I awake every morning, a stranger. Rummage through my wardrobe, looking for another disguise.
A costume that fits whomever I'm attempting to portray today. Yesterday is vaguely remembered since it was lived on another person's lifetime. But their lifetime blends into my timeline. Emotions are something that move through my mind but I rarely experience. For everyone is unfamiliar yet I vaguely get the feeling I have known them for some time. I am often surprised at my actions and reactions. And puzzled by my lack of action. Curious as a child, exploring the degrees of consequence. My conscience is a gray area yet my cautiousness deters any wrong doing. I speak in foreign tongues, read human beings minds, and fail to enjoy their vices. The price of standing outside the circle of squares...

Two Boars

2010-04-01T21:16:00.000-07:00

I find myself in a rotting wooden shack in the middle of a forest.
Surrounded by a wild boar with rabbit like nose.
Which is moving like a rinocerous, charging the dilapidated shack.
I stand in the center.
The boar is waiting at the large opening to my left where a door should be. To the right there she is.
And behind her is another opening identical to the one on the left.
I pause, surprised to see her here in the mist of this situation.
Light reflecting through the holes in the weathered roof appear to create a halo around her head.
Funny, there she is with this spotlight of natural light on her.
She shyly smiles, keeping her lips pursed.
I move in a dazed like state, taking one step in her direction.
Then I slightly frown.
And stare at the boar standing right behind her, now on the right side of the shack.
I quickly turn around, rushing to the opening in the left side of the shack.
A second boar is there blocking the opening.
I look back to her.
She is no longer there.
So here I stand between two boars.
