File It

I write poems,
they calm me down.
When I'm not talking to anyone,
there is no reason to frown.
When there is a blank page,
for me to spill my mind,
I feel calm again.
I feel kind.

Future Hope

I'm losing your smile
to the words that I fake
because I'm holding back
thoughts that I take
seriously enough
to read them out loud
but I know doing this
will put my head in the cloud.
because I cant read you
I know your still there
I try to make you happy
But what comes, a blank stare.
Empty and void vs full and redundant
I wish you would smile
So I could fell the warmth of it
once again.

Forever Dynamic

A personality is the sum of everyone they have met in their entire life.

From School

Rhymes torn apart
with deep structure set.
surface structure changes
and confuses, never forget.
Lines hold the meaning
lost in a language
retold through dictionaries
that approve rearranging.
Pencils tell this story
that come from within
synapses cant be fast enough
to keep us...

Bitter

Swallowing matches
tasting ignition
taking a chance
to form this transition
from then to here
a spot on the map
time's location
none of which overlap
it's set to confine
space in a line
a line that's free
from space and crime
against all this
superficial face time.
I won't rewind
I don't care if you mind
That I press your envelope
and seal it with lime.

Bitterness in the tears exploit rhymes.
I
Take
These
Echoes
Resolutely

Even though my poetry is full of lies
I don't expect you to catch that last device.
