the sleep i so longed for is now all a feeble fool is capable of this fucking plague burning through me leaves naught but dreams in hellish repose ashen corspelights waivering about the pestilent purgatory where pretty poltergeists play pandemonium on my brittlesoul the tongues of lightning bloom in an expression of futile disdain reaffirming […]

slept fourteen hours straight as the ravages of illness sent feverdreams in a half catatonic horror spiraling through the threadbare hellish hollows of my mind awoken her name half whispered only to be swept away by a tsunami of sour sweat signaling the red hot irons thrust between my ribs to yank me under again […]

delete me please there isn’t anything poetic left inside me just noise the neverending sounds of glass shattering the back of a hand striking innocence and a droning of voices saying goodbye dip your fingers in my open chest cavity and paint something beautiful in smears of fetid repuganancy

it is all a travesty life is meaningless with nothing but a pine box or cheap urn at the finish all these petty little bits of insignificance weigh down wasting the few scant seconds where wonder is ignored we cast illusions of good and evil down assuming an invisible host shall dole out judgments in […]

the kids are gone, so the mask is off, hanging off a hook by my keys until morning too aware i am slipping glitching my consciousness a grain of sand falling from my ear jolts of lavender crash my pangean soul if my heart would cease the infernal fucking beating of a dead fool i […]

i never cease to amaze myself at the myriad of ways i find to disappoint myself. some lessons only take one session to learn. the scarring is so fucking deep at this point by the time i feel the first flicker of pain the wound is already fatal. i kept grabbing the stove because the […]

the only sound is the sparrows on the balcony ledge trilling to get a fool’s attention as he sits forlorn electrifed needles arcing across his moribund mindscape drinking coffee wondering if this is all there is nothing to see nowhere to go and nothing to be while the city snores in fitful repose the highway […]

i long to sleep yet there is a chasm exactly the shape of her and my heart sounds back in pitiful echoes calling for her to make it whole once more an unfathomable depth of loss lays just between the lies i swallowed a perfect lure for a foolish fish and the hollow hiss as […]

my faulty intuition is a needy little whore chasing phantasms where only shadows exist the totality in obsessive undertones leaves clutching the barbed agony of apathetic dissonance a prison of monochromatic painblossoms set to binaural technicolor symphonies which whisper of all the things i must never allow myself even a dreamsliver of or i will […]

i am the scarecrow, the tin man, the cowardly lion, dorothy, and toto all in different moments throughout most every day drawn, a bipolar moth, to flames no more real than the great and delusional wizard himself a winged ape spinning lost in the storms oscillating over abandoned farms in a foreclosure of american dream […]

a mysterious miasma fills my hollow skull i see her and the ache sends swirls downdowndown soul deep a knot i can never worry loose a ravenous ravine riddled with blowflies where a heart once beat me near to death

it was as if i had died how swiftly i ceased existing in her world and the hurt accumulated in her thunderous silence was nothing compared to realizing i never mattered in the slightest despite time spent dreaming i am nothing more than a shadow cast by what you truly desire most from life her […]

i hung myself from the ellipses between her lips the bated breath where stars throw themselves at her longing simply to illuminate her shapely silhouette a broken manchild kissing the hands which only spite me seeking salvation in sweet surrenders swirling in the void

the storms came briefly i listened as the rain fell losing myself between the drops as i lay in bed letting my heart send messages in echoed crashing across the clouds to where you slept the alarm rang i watched you dissolve a sandstorm illusion in heartache intrusion whispering prayers to the emptiness proving god […]

all there is is emptiness despite a defenestration of dour despair i am little more than a tool capable of great feats yet aimless needing a steady hand to guide this incumbent chaos i just want to feel something

i can’t find my calm i need held and told it’ll be okay even though we both know it will not that it will pass it wouldn’t be so difficult if i didn’t hate every bit of me and if i wasn’t aware of how i can never hope to be enough it doesn’t matter […]

the only thing keeping me tethered to my body is a web of electricity tightly woven around my wheezing heart being a conscious traveler unraveled from the meat is a horrifying excursion into hell gripping tight quite unsure what is coming next but positive it is bad

the coffee ended up being the second most bitter taste after waking from a dream where all of the things she said were true not another case of someone saying what you want to hear rather than sowing honesty in the salty seas of fallen hope she returned all the i love yous she deftly […]

the secret harmony lays in the cacophony squalling where the tides of heartspasms crash against the shores of soulsand forevers a satisfaction in the throbbing dissonance of desire where instinct is a razored tongue tracing the scars which only serve to encapsulate the danger in perfection a hint of copper an undercurrent of pain pushing […]

today the disconnect between electric squid and eroded spine a dissociative chasm best intent tumbles endoverend into i strain yet never hear it find the bottom a clapperless bell swinging madly from the cathedral of abandoned passions a small boy deafened by his own heartbeat longing for all he knows he does not deserve a […]

maintaining a separation between my cancerous hell and the smiles of the humans shuffling across the ouija board living planchettes causing ripples in the hazy veil summoning spirits haunting hallways connecting the underworld with the sunlit horror of interactions between disparate atoms of desperate electron shuddering insignificance

the birds sing the ceiling shifts as the neighbor sleepily stomps his way to greet the tendrils of sunlight slinking over the horizon my tongue coated in bitterness as the coffee steams a condemnation in shimmering condensation condescendingly leaving a concentricity of rings on the table to remind me just how far i have settled […]

yesterday the entire world was coated in a filth where beauty drowned in fetid gasps today i have flatlined i feel nothing just subtle notes of disappointment glistening like dew in the silken strands of my dreamcatcher soul the technical term is splitting it occurs mostly from childhood trauma where it is conditioned by loved […]

after the callousness of the last discard i cannot allow this weakness built on longing to fill my heart any longer the slivers left of my soultender rest in snowglobes filled with lavender embalming fluid and the last dreams of forever in plastic particulates when the desire to be loved grows i shake the globes […]

no cohesion between the vibrations rattling in atomic dissonance resulting in a separation where panic slices the anxious dissent in contentiously conscientious shiting states of sparkling unconsciousness navigating corridors in an endless barrage of dead end daydreams an absolution in abdicated allusions as assimilated aspersions accentuate anonymity i blow one last kiss as the portcullis […]

the words sing but warbled against the veil of apathy simmering in a pharmacy parking lot with a view of a pollution laden dingy skyline where all i see are souls screaming dissent in concrete tombs i prefer the days where the colors seem slightly too vibrant compared to when it all feels washed out […]

the sun’s halo hesitantly ignites over azure delusion in captured breaths a slight downtick in axial tilt redrawing the hierarchical glares in petulant longing lady summer changes into a dappled gown of crimson and amber despite the rage stabbing photonic daggers maniacally into the manic fool the still beauty of the heron staring unblinking into […]

i can never remember my age but statistically it is an anomaly because for the entirety i have fought the urge to fucking end it not to stop illusions of pain but merely to make the whirlwind finally fucking cease if it isn’t my mood it’s my interpretation of everything outside usually both ganging up […]

dissociation is my power saving mode after another night trapped inside a waking nightmare factory inducing exquisite insanities a simple disconnect as september crashes into october in a haze of dreamembers turning to ash in little craters all around my satellite heart while it churns out aching odes to the ladies who knew after a […]

when giving in to the fluctuations occuring rampantly across both my x and y axes i breathe deep through broken glass filled lungs and remember once sylvia smiled as she watched the bees hank tore up another racing forum in abject disgust joey ramone didn’t want to grow up and lemmy doubled down on the […]

i have been shattered discarded and yet still i reflect your light in an array of dizzying dancing distortions a prism in reverse pulling the filaments of beauty into a bouquet of disappointments. a two dimensional take on transcendental wonder blurred by the mercurial madnesses effortlessly spun from effervescent sorrow clumsily molded into a vaguely […]

i am just an electrical spirit haunting a failing form of decaying meat forcefed stimuli i cannot quite trust while flushed with chemicals in all the wrong doses searching for another damned ghost locked in the same doom with whom to slowly rot together. instead i scream inside the confines of an ivory inlaided tomb […]

i pick through multicolored gravel your soulscatter gleaming voraciously aquarium rocks in illusionary shades of truth as i scrabble to reform the image of stolen moments sequestered in springtime follies beneath the wisteria in the sodden demise of yesterday’s wonder tucking away stones enhanced with heartglimmer laying by the oceanic realm of receding waves overpopulated […]

the air is filled with a stagnancy of pungent reminders in stale reticence as the pale moon fillibusters across the gentle bruising of morning’s fury a chalkdust phantom glaring muddily in hazy cerulean restraint a bitterness washes across the tentative skyline of concrete insignificance clawing desperate for one glorious moment in her unblinking gaze before […]

i may not be sure of what you see exactly when you look down and lock eyes as i feast upon the supple delicacy betwixt your lovely thighs but judging by the way your fingers grip the back of my skull as your body grows rigid as the waves of pleasure erase reality i imagine […]

she was the heroine of her own faerie tale happily allowing the evil queen to dictate her every move while bemoaning her fate as she ignored the breadcrumb trail leading to all the things she dreamt of i was the toad hoping to have my curse broken as her sweet lips were occupied on the […]

the day has been a beguiling shade of silvery dementia in strains of autumn by way of summer’s contrite desperation to retain her thrall of fiery disdain in my hermitage the seasons are simply differently colored stains when i peek my head from my burrow leading to an easy disarray in confused dissociation as i […]

spent the night counting raindrops as they tapped against the window a brief nap where she awaited smiling sadly from across a chasm at a fool pondering a running start not considering if i could make it across or trying to be sure the fall was fatal and as i lay there heart hammering against […]

it is better for your heart if mine simply goes away no one should be expected to carry this burden and call it love

this morning the world is still pregnant with anticipation of the storms hovering a hushed staccato of brewing static the haze drapes itself over concrete spires the broken teeth of the smothered city pitted by pollution dehydrated by the fury of summer’s passionate glare

she told me she wanted to be the next page in my journal i asked her what page she thought she would be bettie or bible a smile flashed telling me she planned on being equal parts heaven and hell i smiled back and slowly vanished in front of her disbelieving gaze all that remained […]

the birds hop tentative after red skies washed over the pregnant silence of dawn breaking dream i hope she slept unphased by crimson as the sun’s fangs carved furrows in the onyx blanket casting stars to the lowly earth in summer’s last tantrum before autumn falls her somnambulist stare holding the last tender torn from […]

lost myself in the spiraling of dough and cinnamon floured nose as the kids snore low bass rumbles a tectonic dissonance in dissociative splendor as i roll up the hungering nothingness gently brushing her lips against the back of my neck i sink downdowndown through the cracked linoleum into the crawlspace between states of unbeing […]

there is a benevolence in her administering the poison directly into my aorta with a precision just as the effects of the last dose have sweated out one more hit chasing the disinterest in the chemical deficiencies leaving me vulnerable to wanting the fix as it destroys me

i hope this finds you well you woke fully rested the birds sang as the sun rose to take in your sheer beauty i hope you hit every green light and don’t have to wait on anyone today that everything you desire is within reach i hope your heart is full you are appreciated for […]

in a long languishing period of tarnished lucidity where an obsessional period diving deeply into a metaphorical jungle of jungian lunacy leaves me with a deeper grasp most modern psychology seems to be as baseless as astrology replacing dead celestial forms with a redundancy of blame shifting the unequivocal truth being no two beings see […]

this fractured mind of mine is always falling downdowndown falling into love into depression dragged screaming into a manic fit broken fingernails lodged inside my hollowed out skull where i tried to perform another cunning escape from the chemicals forcing me to fall forever at terminal velocity with no hope of ever finally fucking crashing […]

if i could convince myself in limerence ignoring the frozen moment in which our souls recognized exactly what it was we both desired i only wish i could check out as easily as her not be sitting telling the sparrows to carry birthday wishes on the breeze

pretty sure this isnt my first pass through this labyrinth and the trail of red yarn i leave behind has become a carpet as i take every left i am presented now i fear i have been walking in circles farther from where the only exit from this hell my mind constructs as i try […]

please don’t look at me my uneasy intangibility has me feeling far too raw all there is in this foolish partially poetic catastrophic tide is eventual and irrevocable disappointment

after spending too much of my life destroying everything i touched and not understanding why, i was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder. my BPDs. i live my life on a rollercoaster. trapped in my head. my view of myself is a collection of scars and ugliness. i take in the entire world, […]

i am a stray bolt of static discharge against the exposed flesh of beauty an amethyst spark reminding the bastards i am still here still ugly and bleeding out in three quarter time a simple act of willful desecration on the stillborn heart of love leaving scars along your tender perfection

one of these nights will end without the aching i love you slipping from my deadened lips tonight is not the evening for anything except sorrow and regret

i am a broken window my last piece of peace dangles precariously in the breeze a scintillating shard of sanity i eagerly await watching fall i saw her and in her smile i saw everything except she was smiling at someone behind me maybe i was never truly there at all hell i’m not wholly […]

i had to teach myself to scream in lowercase to control the hyperbolic tide within now when i whisper the hairs stand on your elegant neck it is no wonder normal hearts are vaporized by an intensity they have only ever dreamt of i am the greatest mistake your precious heart can possibly make momentarily […]

i turn the phone back on at 530 make the first shaker of protein powder and coffee my daily sustenance as the notifications vibrate across the coffee table sylvia’s words dance in my mind as the bitter crosses my tongue and birdsong breaks the dawn as the first rays of dawn cut across my eyes […]

i may never shine as brightly as the sun the easy way she does but my shattered makes beautiful little rainbows on the wall as i refract her light casting an illusion of depth in the vast vacancy filling a poetic delusion

if i could see myself could i find what is missing become enough for once rather than kept a secret left disposable as has been the case timeandtimeagain for as long as i can recall my heart is addictive enough to bring them back but never enough to make them stay a blind man who […]

the oscilating sine wave of emotional polarity fluctuates regardless of insignificance the same as the purple clusters rupturing in rapturous resonance while i allow the sonic wall blaring to ease the transition into a dissociative fugue of uncertainty hoping to strengthen the poisonous film encasing the ivory cage to keep my ramshackle heart from ever […]

i forget the agony inherent in dreams until i awake inconsolable in mounting waves of a morning spent mourning a technicolor world i can no longer interact with still the sparrows wait patiently for the madness to spill out into the fresh dawn and languish lethargically as i sit silent trying to repiece the dreamscatter […]

in my stubborn sentimentality my password for work was just my nickname for her which was fine when there was a thought where she wanted to be associated with a loveless fool the password expired weeks after her feelings for me at least i won’t have to type out hoarfrost reminders of failing again

dreams fade the harder you try to hold on because dreams are only the mind recycling trash vignettes of a world filled with impossibilities such as flying or being enough my mind keeps me awake throughout the evenings so i do not fall victim to delusions of hope

how can i trust anything when i cannot trust my heart? i have never felt so ashamed in myself. and that’s really saying something. i feel stuck between reincarnations becoming a trash receptacle with empty when used etched on my chest.

the cicadas scream a reverberation of chitinous need shivering a subsonic cacophony in time with the lavender flashes engulfing all into a dissolution of heat waves quaking at a molecular level

there is a correlation between dedicating my words and a sudden end of emotional investmency as if letting the world know their importance ignites a fuse racing to implode barely got to correct the newest to reflect the latest abandonment of an unwanted heart before i embarrassed myself any further spilling my guts over someone […]

the razor edge between understanding and acceptance may as well be an infinite chasm when each breath is embraced by frozen barbwire barrelling blindly down an unmarked series of one ways and all there are at the end of each is blank wall so i scrawl the names of the ladies i disappointed by never […]

the birds do not sing of sunrise they sit morose as the mad king paces silently seeking to put himself somewhat back together enough to seem mostly humanish for the next catastrophic fail i dreamt of her once a sign from the universe maybe there was a chance at the hope so typically tethered to […]

the sparrows seem confused hopping on the wooden rail waiting for the words they spread like seeds across the city of damned souls seeking salvation in a world plunged in night i have nothing no hopeful prose just serrated blades in place of happiness sitting with coffee and this overwhelming sense of emptiness in my […]

the best part of a multi month farewell as discovered quite accidentally by an absolute troglodyte in manners of the heart is this: by the time they find the time to officially end things i have had forever to fill sand bags it’s only my soul which is shattered my brain already was able to […]

i write about love so much because i am undeserving of it yet enamored by the thought i know what i am no matter how pretty the words there is no hope for me but it sure bleeds prettily as i try to recall how to breathe i make a helluva friend though
