The others throw to be comprehended. He Throws to be a moment misunderstood. Yet not too much. Not errant, arrant, wild, But every seeming aberration willed. Not to,…

Share Your Thoughts With Me. I’m 31 this time Call it a day Call it a night Call it whatever you want To me it was a big fight Through the fire Through the smile My heart softens The cracks fill up They solidify A bit of hope Some liquid mix And my heart slowly stops To form this delusional remix Everything needs a replacement Some wheels, one shaf…

Share Your Thoughts With Me. I know where it lies, I know what i have not said I know what’s keeping me up at night I know this feeling… of regret Not towards you, neither the world But toward me It is me that i can not look into the mirror And breathe easily I need the truth to be in place At work, in life, at my disgrace The ghosts can’t live lik…

Interrogations go over for hours as we meet in dreams I ask i ask i ask You just laugh out loud Leaving me in defeat Sometimes in my room Sometimes in the middle of the street Sometimes in between Never in your room There no jurisdiction can reach No heart and soul allowed To see the thoughtful crimes To hear the wristw…

Share Your Thoughts With Me. So it is that we can seldom help anybody. Either we don’t know what part to give or maybe we don’t like to give any part of ourselves. Then, more often than not, the part that is needed is not wanted. And even more often, we do not have the part that is needed Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs thro…

Share Your Thoughts With Me. I bargained with Life for a penny, And Life would pay no more, However I begged at evening When I counted my scanty store; For Life is a just employer, He gives you what you ask, But once you have set the wages, Why, you must bear the task. I worked for a menial’s hire, Only to learn, dismayed, That any wage I had asked…

Share Your Thoughts With Me. Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frai…

Share Your Thoughts With Me. To be, or not to be, that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep, No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to…
