delusionaldelusional
old bricks, red and crumbling
flowers bright blue and crisp
and i wondered where you had gone
behind a wall that did not exist
the sky silently wept over me
clouds crawled by like angels wings
san francisco died in the swirling mist
it was just one of those things
a melody whined through my head
pianos and violins kept the music slow
i decided...

For trying to get out
Now twice, on your record
What is it you’re without?...

A Monster's Final MomentsThe embers of my bitter revenge burn low,
and I'm left with lingering anger and disappointment.
Their hatred for me doesn't approach
the profound self-loathing that plagues my existence.
In a final, desperate plea, I raise my gaze skyward.
Even though I have been shown little compassion in my life,
I implore the divine power of God,
a figure known...

Would youWould you be mad if I picked up the bottle?
Would you cry if I were to die
Lost to the cradle of death
Would you hold me close as I cry?
Would you hum me to sleep
As I softly weep?
Would you comfort me through the sorrow
Beg me to see tomorrow?
And I ask one more time, would you?...

Just A WordI can’t do it anymore.
They tell me to
do what I think is right.
But what I think is right,
It seems to be wrong.
Suicide.
Maybe it’s simply just a word to you
But the day that I leave you,
The horrible day that seems closer everyday,
Is also the day when my parents are the
most...

How fragile we are
I sit and watch the twilight
In vaulted heaven burns brittle stars
I feel the rush of wind
It cares the ash of pine
I feel the movement of the earth
In rivers of darkness flow
I feel the cosmic birth
How fragile we are
I know the tilt of the universe
In seas of oblivions void
I touch the...

The end of my ropeYou tied the noose that I hang from
I stare at the writing on the wall
I feel like all the words are written wrong
My feet can’t find the stall
I wish my thoughts would just be gone
I am the rope in which they tie
I can’t seem to shape the future of my life
Got me thinking am I...

TiredI'm too tired to care -
too worn to wear that
chic shirt
which matches my shoes
that you seem to care so much about
I'm too drained to change at all
Truthfully,
I'm more than tired -
an exhaustion born
from a wired brain
too tormented to sleep -
Too terrified to be burned alive
in this frigid fire pit again
and again -
but...

the day after you killed yourselfIt's the day after you killed yourself
Your bed is the same
Your bf is texting you seeing if your ok
Your uncle comes into your room to make sure you are ready for school
And sees you laying there..not breathing
He starts panicking and calls your other uncle crying he can't seem to find the...

Sound, Words, and Other DeathsThe air turned black all around me and the fear truly set in. The darkness is surrounding. Who's to know what lies within? The voices spin, dizzying in my head. They repeat all those words to me. All the words they said are closer than memory. As my blood runs out, the darkness swirls around...

You'd Never KnowYou'd never know
Surely no one could tell
I almost took my life ten months ago
From the flames inside that burned a living hell
Where demons dwell and angels ache to break free from below
It mustn't show, the absent soul hidden with a counterfeit shell...

I Want to WantI want to want -
I want to look into your eyes and feel
the weight of damnation lifted from my shoulders.
I want to see endless days without the foresight to end it.
I want to envision visions of eternity in eternal bliss.
I want to hold your hand and feel the embrace of light itself.
I want to...

A RIDE I COULDN T SEE
To all, apologies I send,
For sights unseen, where paths did end.
My roller coaster, wild and free,
A blur of motion, lost to me.
Through twists and turns, I couldn't trace,
The dizzying speed, the frantic pace.
It grew too much, a heavy weight,
A burden I could not take.
The highs and lows, a weary game,
A constant shift, a burning flame.
Most...

A Soldier once tried to end his life until God showed up and I'm here todayOne dark morning at 2am I stood there alone.
My life in pieces, many things had gone wrong.
The pain was so deep, no light I could see.
I could not believe, what was happening to me.
No other person I thought has felt this pain.
Mine was the worst, and that was my claim....
