Going to the Unknown road.....
If only I did not know the words I would go bye quiet
Sound of words will ring the minds doorbell
Thinking is such a hard process for he is gone
Go through the times and the clock is ticking and I am not
Another breath and I wake alone
It is alright the time has come and gone and another
Silent word has come and gone and I need to be unknown
Once again it is not the poet that knows the thoughts
It is the words and idea one has placed on the board
Well if it is love it is meant to stay if it is nothing more than No
Then it is time to stay still beneath the wind is the chime of nature
Cry out my friend you may be heard as it is only a few words and you
Will be heard and I will be away from here as time is such of essence
To go unknown sometimes is better than unnoticed…….
If only I did not know the words I would go bye quiet

About this poem:
To go unnoticedJust caught by the dark......
I do not want to say good bye
But I must as time is so near
Heartaches never feel the same
We ponder if we should stay or go
With much thought to it would I know
If I was here or if was gone
seems like the poet is only taken
For the word of greatness
Time has come and I must go
If time circles around I will be back
But I must as time is so near
Heartaches never feel the same
We ponder if we should stay or go
With much thought to it would I know
If I was here or if was gone
seems like the poet is only taken
For the word of greatness
Time has come and I must go
If time circles around I will be back

About this poem:
Just how it has to be for awhile....
Concrete Prison
In this prison of concrete and steel,
I sometimes wonder if I'm even real.
Do I really walk my own way?
Or am I bound to do what they say?
Murder in the streets, killing on the news.
It's a wonder where I learned these views.
The mask I wear hides the real me.
Because I'm not who they want me to be.
They tell me I'm wrong and push me around.
But I just smile and don't make a sound.

They tell me I'm wrong and push me around.

How much more can I stand
Four grey walls surround me,
closing me in,
taking my breath away.
Sweat breaks out on my forehead,
my palms starting to feel clammy,
and I think that I am going to vomit.
Desperately I try to control myself.
I don't think that I can stand this much longer.
My mind screams at me 'get out of here,'
but the closed walls do not allow this.
Thankfully I hear 'fifth floor - Ladies wear,'
and the door opens.

About this poem:
Maybe a bit of humour mixed in there
Untitled 2
Tearing at the shroud, of an empty page
Staring at the lines that have faded with age
Reflecting on the dream, so real, so true
Could it be, somehow I've always known you
Thoughts breed silence to my waking mind
Open my eyes, yet still remain blind
A thousand times, I've tried to see
What once was lost, may be in front of me
Yet still I wander aimlessly
And wonder what's in store for me
Lost among my own desire
Afraid to feel the yearning fire
Smile at me in the dawns dim light
Take my hand, devour the fight
Breathe me into your weary soul
Warm my heart for it grows so cold
Staring at the lines that have faded with age
Reflecting on the dream, so real, so true
Could it be, somehow I've always known you
Thoughts breed silence to my waking mind
Open my eyes, yet still remain blind
A thousand times, I've tried to see
What once was lost, may be in front of me
Yet still I wander aimlessly
And wonder what's in store for me
Lost among my own desire
Afraid to feel the yearning fire
Smile at me in the dawns dim light
Take my hand, devour the fight
Breathe me into your weary soul
Warm my heart for it grows so cold

Whispers of death
Whispers of death have me aghast,
hope defiled on the steps of the brave,
symbols of emotionalism right to the last,
footprints of sorrow to the grave.
Demons guard the gates of hell,
chains of disgust seemingly hollow,
souls of the lost infinitely dwell,
cries of the vanquished easy to swallow.
Fire and brimstone lay at your feet,
screams of the damned echo with pain,
flesh devoured by incessant heat,
laughter of the ridiculous drives you insane.
Unspeakable torture rips at the eyes,
caves of blackness swallows you whole,
while smiles of indifference stifle your cries,
and the demon of the deep wrestles your soul.
Kinship and fellowship fall away,
strangers in death cast aside,
your on your own with nothing to say,
tears of forgiveness with nowhere to hide.
Nightmares are temporary with eyes of silt,
you wake in the morning with sweat on your head,
its only your pride that grapples with guilt,
while the cold embrace of fear fills you with dread.
Life is a springboard filled with hope,
laughter and joy shared by the chosen,
death is a memory that swings on a rope,
lips twisted in fright tongue swollen and frozen.

About this poem:
Its about my friend kiled himslef cause all he wanted was love .Misery loves Company
he will not let me leave,
everytime i stand to go misery offers me more tea,
sit he'd say i have loads to tell sure whats the rush.
Oh misery let me get on my way,
for the sun is shinning outside and in here is dull and grey,
i want to go see happiness in the beautiful fields and play,
But misery he just shakes his head and tells me this is where i must stay,
my misery loves company and he keeps me locked away.

Hallucinations.
There's nothing I can do while I sit & boil,
building up this energy in my inner coil,
in which I much release but your just no where to be found!
That's where all these words come from anyway,
but I'm frustrated today 'cause you still play your f#ck!ng games!
My insecurity loves to bite at me,
but it's you who originally laid it down upon me!
Now I lay to rest in the palm of a tight grip,
my life was in your hands & you purposely let it slip!
Ripped into my heart & let the blood drip! Drip! Drip!
D. R. I. P.
Now I'll be gone,
to leave you to the rest,
to cast your shadow of cru-el-ty on them & say that they are blessed!
Creating more like YOU!
It's no wonder,
why the world has come to what it's come to!
You help me see why honor has ceased,
Respect, fallen!
Class & loyalty on it's knee's crawling on the ground,
why trust has been broken down,
why I stopped hoping & found no faith for it's alive & on fire!
Desire is shattered when you scatter from me!
Down the drain goes my mind,
in this lonely life of mine,
'cause I'm still a f#ck!n' man at home alone crying.
One minute I'm fine,
the next she's in my sight (hallucinations),
coming around the car,
ghost in crisp dark night (hallucinations),
yet your not with me!
It's my day dreams, turning to hallucinations!
This night is one,
I'll never have back,
yet another we've been away.
A night we'll never get back,
such sick & twisted games,
a permanent R.O.?
Over my head in sorrow,
you can't be f#ck!ng serious!
I pray to see tomorrow!
Things would be different,
if you ever really did,
feel a true emotion,
mean a word you said!
Prove what you had claimed,
I guess your dreams had changed,
I was no longer in them,
forgotten & thrown away!...
...your fabricated in my mind,
memories which are mine,
my deception tightly winds all for my own purposes,
my manipulating pain underneath slowly surfaces!
Hallucinations.

About this poem:
I saw my daughters mother numerous times. Getting out of the car. The kitchen. In the bathroom. I could hear her voice. She has been miles & miles away from me for a long while now. It was kinda crazy & very tormenting. I loved that girl very much!*HomeGrownAnger*
D.N.E. Sounds free to me...
Death never ending, is breath never spending...
Wasted words. A memory lasts a life time...
Act like you heard...
Trying to pour out, emotions of doubt, my frozen heart,
in tangled webs, free falling, cold & bloody,
my soul has left behind a lifeless mess of a broken body!
I want to stay in the fight but I may just lay still,
the predator is devouring it's prey, it's meal, I feel, the steel teeth,
sink down to the bone,
while American's are striped of their rights & taken from their homes,
as the weak is beaten to think the powerful is high & mighty,
held down by the clenching grip of society, hold me before I slip,
I'm far from sobriety, I'm not worried about a mess,
it'll be cleaned by the rest...
The wind, the rain, the dirt, the pain...
Laying down to D.N.E. I feel so blessed...
Frustration is flowing, my brain is going to it's dark castle.
Then frustration overflows & my HomeGrownAnger grows,
I have non of my bro's, only foes & anything goes,
I'll take you off your ten toes & be sure everyone knows,
my pain as lame by name for nothing has changed it's all the same!
Your crawling under my skin,
I'm lashing out, reaching out, digging deep with in,
with one last gasp it's hard to grasp pushing forward forgetting the past, searching deep with in.
I can feel the energy of the past, living with the present,
I try to stay on the path, my eyes, my feet, my mind doesn't,
nothing lines up, makes sense, or looks the same,
I'm lost in the world on unfamiliar terrain!
My time is spoiled, I will wash away my flaws,
My pain has done me in & now I have no cause!
Drugs...shoulder shrugs...infest frustrated mind...with HomeGrownAnger!
Blended to a pattern...routine frustration...at a high elevation of my HomeGrownAnger!
Drugs frustrating...& already hating...infected regurgitating...isolating in a routine pattern of HomeGrownAnger!
Searching for a stranger...s*xual danger...boiling over...ready to snap!
It's too late, I can't go back!
Unforeseen lies & disloyalty's, leave no sympathy!
Your ten fingered collar & chains keep this dog subdued!
Your lack of gratitude, has us unglued, living life separately!
Outrageously, unholy, carelessness of others misery!
Your ten fingered collar & chains keep this dog subdued!
Your f#ck!ng attitude, makes me come unglued, with a rage of fury!
Furiously, controlling, rolling on me killing me so you can finally bury me in my cage of fury!
I used to hold you high...
I held you like my trophy...
You held me back...by my neck...trying to choke me!!!
