Poems

Life is a lie

Out here,
In the open,
Life goes on,
Roots intertwined,
And family trees blossom.
Outside among the vines,
The undergrowth impeding my movements.
I started from the bottom,
Now I’m here,
Still the bottom.
I tried to connect to a root,
I was labelled a parasite,
Hurt. Dejected.
I sprout from the ground,
I was thinned. An outcast.

The shadows lengthen,
The clouds darken,
The plot thickens,
The life became uncertain.
Nothing is comforting.
Life is a farce.
A mirage.
Before you know you’re alive.
The obituary is out.

Poems

No longer the man

Marauded my way into the fyke
Of preternatural romance .
Adorned with thorns and spike
Discomfited, never in balance.
Full of laughs and frowns alike
But heart unbroken , never a lance
Could pierce the core. I’m Ike .

Look At You

Look at you,
Mending hearts,
And building homes.

Look at you,
Guiding others to a treasure you cannot posses.

Look at you,
Building bridges,
And getting carried away in the currents.

Loneliness and Numbered Days

No Comments on Loneliness and Numbered Days

The feeling of loneliness;
Even when you’re with someone.
The feeling of not feeling loved;
Even when the one you love most is near.
The feeling of doom, damage beyond repair;
Even when she is always by your side.

Because you know that the days are numbered.
And she’s going to be yours no more.

That’s when you think of 6 feet underground.
You think of the wonders of a sharp razor.
The alluring spirit of a strong rope tied to a stronger tree.
You think of expired poisons and poisonous products.
You think of just ending it all

Dark thoughts

At this moment,
I feel like cutting a major artery,
To allow the blood flow,
To drain all the blood from my body,
So my heart will not feel again.
So the hurt will stop,
And the pain, all the pain, will go away.

I want to jump from a cliff so high,
With hungry sharks lingering in the water below.
And as I plummet to certain end,
I reminisce on how it ended,
On how love brought me this end.
And as I hit the water in pieces
Never to feel again. In peace.

Dead guys don’t love again

Rebirth

Things change,
Emotions change,
And now, it is my turn.

Bigger and better me?
That, I doubt.

Zero malice,
No hatred.
Zero enemies,
But rebirth is a myth.

Nothing

One moment:
I was the king,
The sole winner of the melee
Or is it a duel?

But right now,
I just want to lie down;
And watch my life fade away.
I just want to die.

Die slowly,
Exit without a trace.
Nothing is worth it.

Poems

Troubled times.

When the sky is blue
Crystal clear
All I think about
Is the good memories we had.

But when it turns grey
The hurt
The disappointment
Our disaster
Comes flooding back
