Consent
No
I refuse to believe that I am just an empty vessel
An empty ship to adolescent ecstasy
Void of reason
Just an attic packed tight in fear
No’s bouncing between the soundproof walls.
I refuse to believe that my X’s are my own enemy
Instead I see my gene’s unzipped
as I feel your pulse beat through my skins
with each gentle animalistic gasp
I feel my bones screaming
No
But my tears are lost in the sweat of your determined brow
My mind tries to leave
Just as I had been earlier
But your filth-stained hands bring me back to the thrashing shore
I still feel my bones screaming
No
The Chase
Addicted to the chase
like an atmospheric race
blinded by curiosity and lust
with emotions soon to rust
my heart its own free spirit
its targets soon shall fear it
please do not try
I’m only seeking for the high
I cannot let my feelings hide
though my soul runs far and wide
but soon my feelings shall follow
and my chest will soon be hollow
Awakening
One short breath
shared between parted lips.
Emotions in beads
upon scorching skin.
Fumbling minds
become fumbling hands.
Drinking golden nectar
from the badly broken arteries
deep in the pounding cavities in our chests.
Our languid bodies vulnerable
to the judgmental open air.
Our innocent roots tainted
by the pollen in our blood.
Our innocent roots awakened
by Curiosity.
BLIND
Alone in a technicolor world
searching for something to call my own
empty promises and forgetful lies
stumbling across old scars everytime
a dreamer in a burning hell
colors bleeding from my shell
time to sleep in personal meth
like screaming in a silent death
people far, people near
doesn’t matter if they can’t hear
one last heart string forever mine
grey emptiness without a life
every try, every hope
fears for tears
lies for eyes
I am blind to colors
as You are blind to me
but I am the only one who will see.
COPE
“Do you ever want to disappear?”
To run your fingers through warm grass
To drink the sweetest poisons
To let the sunshine burn deep in your throat
When life gets too fast
And your chest beats out of time
The walls close in around you
And nothing
Nothing
Feels as good as the high
You so self-indulgently get
As the diluted pain
Goes down the rusting shower drain.
“Do you ever want to disappear?”
FORGOTTEN
Your tongue cuts like ice
Your laughter blares like horns
Blossoms opened like summertime
and your smells filled my night
Every kiss like a sweet crime
nothing had ever been this right.
But
you’ve taken a different road
leaving me in the dust
and now I bear the load
of the heart you left to rust.
Heaven
Give me a Friday night
music pumping in our veins
pressed together
swaying our hips
to the synthesized beats
your hands like a lighthouse
guiding me
to the safety in the sweat of our youth
spin me around
I will swim in your eyes
only moments before
our lips speak for themselves
their own hormonal language
we’ve lost control
and as we fight for air
between stolen kisses
we float above
high
untouched
EXPECTATIONS
Infinite melodic lies
that burning blue fire in your eyes
anger and hate is like the smell of burning flesh
the hell of the same old loneliness
black thunderclouds follow me
like the shadow of the person I could be.
