The next to empty train
Roars through the mist of dawn
As it passes the lakes and elves
The dark and mystic pines
-forests that once told of horrors
To keep the ones like me
From crossing the line-
This box, this crate
A testament of the modern man
To whom which it serves
Is somewhat of a time traveller
When it breezes the land
That years have made its own
And yet there are scenes from my window
That I know are proofs
Of exceptions to the rule that reads,
"time will take its toll"
All the brooks and oaks
And even more so
Every bolder and stone
Convinces my heart and soul
That I need not be marred and scorned
Broken and t
I didn't want to write
Cause when its in print
When its in ink
I can't erase the words that I forced down
On dirty pages that I've kept
For the soul reason of keeping
My thoughts from crawling out of my mouth
With soar eyes
Fixating on the lines
Memorizing your lies
Like pulling teeth
you pulled yourself out my chest
and now with every cognition
that even remotely features you
is a sea of salt that pours into the wound
But I walked with cuts and scars before
And I've run away from the edge and the grind
But sooner or later I've felt the guard
Making the blade finally take a halt
The holes in my back
Never did help me breat

Literature
Haste! But, In Devoid Of Wit
I've run with haste into the thistle
I've gone from the start to the end
And skipped the middle,
I've proceeded blindly in devoid of wit
I leaped o'er the fence into the paddock
And found it full of shit,
I've fallen for lust and grace
And whilst idle, drunk, and still
It's all simply washed away,
My vessels built for calm seas
It handles nothing more than swell
And prefers the quiet soothing breeze,
In a sudden and heavy pour
The serious and sobering rains came
And stranded me on this desolate shore,
Miles to the east and miles to the west
Two ways for me to wander
And I've no idea which is best,
Indecision is in my nature
Remember the days
when your step was light
and your head among
the lightly scattered clouds in the sky
For a short time
-thought to might have lasted an eternity-
her hand was yours to hold
and her lips were yours to kiss
your embrace to her you gave
during moonlights time as you lay
But as the morning fog fades
when the sun ascends
did her affection wither
when her head and heart
revived the scent of flowers past
Damn the seeds that grew
and damn the sweet nectar
that the blossoms grew
Cause now
your room
your bed
your clothes
your doodles
your thoughts
your literacy
It's all littered with
the peddles of her memory
Walking down a night road,
My head hanging low.
Drunk off my ass,
From all The cheap wine,
That I had bummed.
Where do I go,
To find what I don't know?
Where do I look,
To see what I haven't been looking for?
Keep my head down low,
To keep it from crashing to the floor.
Keep my feet on the ground,
Like paper stapled down.
Down, down, down we go.
Lets trace the bottom,
with our fingers.
And grind our teeth,
As paper cuts fill our eyes with tears.

Literature
We Become Electrical Relays
We do different things on sunny days
We do different things on rainy days
We cant repeat the same shit again
Cause we'd go insane.
We seem to try so hard
To get out of our day in day out loops
We become electrical relays
Tuning out and tuning in
Filtering everything we reckon.
Pull the covers over your head
Tear all your garments from your body
Break out into inevitable madness
Cause the wheel won't stop spinning.
Fixate on the street lights
Your guide to your destination
Fade out to forget the fleeting stories
Read em out loud to distract
Scream if you hear the train a comin.
Lock our selves out or lock our selves in
Doesn
If I could melt her down
I would find a knife
Strung through the heart
She has tried to forget
Tried to live her life
We tried once
And we tried twice
She said she cut it out
She said she was fine
That now we could all move on
If I could melt her down
I would find her pearly whites
Hanging upside down
She said she was turned around
She said she was just fine
We tried to believe
And we tried to see
But the words she wrote screamed
And the words she spoke deceived
How could we believe
Now we could see
Her shell was stained black
Not white as she wished
But if we could melt her down
All we would find is gold

Conversations as empty as the glasses they're done drinking. Clinking breaks the silence as more sedatives of life are refilled and spilled, pouring out stains on your neighbours teeth and jeans. I think to myself that you're a Babylon's puppet, trapped inside a bottle; you're a mantel piece in the abode of Tragedy.

Her nails drum on your glass, laughing as waves of sound crack your ears. You are played by her fingers, turning you into the fish you tortured through fish tank walls so many years ago. Tragedy shakes and plays with your world and you believe that the bruises and breaks are the
I don't like hiding.
I don't like playing superficial phony games.
I want to stop playing them.
I want to be genuine and spontaneous and me.
