A For Effort!

This is why I love poetry...

I tried to let go of the echo,

but it bounced back as I put on my coat.

So these four walls were like a cloak and outside would call

to inside my dome.

I don’t answer my phone,

Often.

I don’t have hope,

Often.

I don’t atone,

Often.

Like Billie joe,

I walk this lonely road with my shadow behind me…

My only friend,

just to remind me.

Until there was him.

I keep my distance,

I don’t follow blindly.

If he takes off my blindfold,

I shut my eyes instantly.

For his purity is blinding

and if given a collision…

could mean calamity

for our existence.

One touch from me, you end up broken.

On the hopeless path of exhaustion

I can already see the cracks on your ceiling

Your floors and-

I don’t want to give it meaning.

I say the words but I hold back all the feeling.

I look at you briefly…

I keep moments to fleeting.

I love discreetly…

You might feel it’s lost all meaning.

I love you dearly…

I’m just not good at saying.

“Our generation thinks it’s cool not to care. It’s not. Effort is cool. Caring is cool. Staying loyal is cool. Try it out.”

Good man, John! Never change! Speak up for the people who need to know that they matter!!!

Tired of being used? Me too, pass the bottle

Something I started just after Alone at Sea, taking place some time before Gem Hunt.  A little darker than my usual fare!  I hope ya’ll still enjoy it.

“There’s something I was chasing after, and I finally managed to get it. But once I did, it wasn’t as big of a deal as I thought. Now I’m wondering, if I go after something else, and get my hands on it, am I just gonna think I was happier during the chase? That’s like… total bullshit, isn’t it?”

I think I was just born with something dark and ugly inside of me. Always waiting to be found out.
