Confused of everything I am
Determined to be someone else
Or being rather radiant myself
Of what in my path is coming next
Delusional at day and night
Can’t think or sleep it over right
Negotiating with my only self
Is helpless within this empty shell
Of being scared is like a feeling new
It has been years since I have been through
I need someone to hold my hand
So I can just try to fully stand
It happens every time I think about it
That there is nothing meaningful around me
But what an expectation did I have
For someone so abrupt and deaf
I’ll walk alone the path again
With no determination of the day
I’
These stammering heartbeats
felt in stuttering airways,
where butterflies came out as words of love;
caught harshly within your net,
subduing and possessing.
My innocence was shucked,
my freedom spread and pinned to paper
before lips devoured me
with passions normally concealed
with words left, and felt,
within each humid stretch of silence.
With each cocooned metamorphosis,
you kept me confined warmly
stationary wings loved, still;
It is as my heart,
which loves until beat silent
and silent I wish I was,
instead of loving and living
within seeds of carefully tended
naivety.
because words unspoken
my heart floats,
and flutters out the storm
the light has breached the night
and brought about the dawn
the sea of clouds has parted
my dark has lost control
so now myself is free
and now so is my soul
the light has kissed me gently
the sun has brought its day
i pray it never leaves again
i wish it always stay
so i forget about tomorrow
my fear itself has bowed
i bathe in the radiance
not of the future,
but of now
No one knows till they taste it
No one cares till they lose it
No one bleeds till they live it
No one wants to admit it
No one can be without it
No one truly lives till they feel it

In The Dark, There Is Always Light
There are places so dark
That we can't see
There are places so dark
That we feel lonely
There are whispers in the dark
That makes our ears bleed
There are whispers in the dark
That makes us scared
As the darkness surrounds us
We look for a light
As the darkness embraces us
We start to fight
We don't want to live a life
In the dark
We don't want to live a life
In the shadows
As we look for a source of light
We realize
As we look for a small hope
We understand
There is always someone there
Even when it's dark
There is always someone there
Who will ignite your spark
You're never alone
Even in the dark
You're never alone
love pushes and cuts
it bleeds from all the wrong places
it screams at you and says your stupid
its a father with a frown
and a mother cursing
what looks like hate plays a little trick
cruelty can lie too
what you see as suffering
they only want to show you the path
but you already found it
you're still a babe
but they treat you like a man
you miss the caress only a mother can give
you miss the kind guidence of a father
don't fret.
i can be that kindness
i can see your sorrow
i will feed you what you crave
it isn't lust
it isn't pain
it is not their fault
they love.
they just love wrong.
