How often
Must one dwell on presence
It's a simple contraption
Nay it is not created
But is
Is it the focus of all people
The fathomed question is
Just out of our reach
And possibly
Will not return this time
My friends call it
Pretentious
To wonder and accurately acclaim
More than what we really know
And they're right to assume
That we do not have a right
To be greater than human
All I wonder is why
Does my cat look at me
Up the stairwell
For the longest expression of time
And yet
Doesn't bother to appear alive
Or
Awaking from space staring
To discover no one really noticed
That you were space staring
Or
Why the sound of my voice
Bothers
Anchor
Sway swing sway
Atop of waves
Sway swing sway
Dwell and lay
Aboard the ship
Kick the deck
Break my lips
Reward the trek
Eyes shift and tilt
Survival is prior and post
The iron would wilt
And my arms will roast
The last of me
Would be this splash
The most feasible plea
Before the clash
Below the surface
Sinks the soul
Serve a purpose
Mere and whole
When You Fall
You are falling
Down.
You are falling
Down.
You cannot save yourself
You will only break more bones.
Accept or deny it
There is no difference
Nothing will change what is
For it would be those who are standing
Those who cut you down
They are
Standing.
Do you remember it?
Being hacked and hacked away
The torment you suffered
It is gone.
You are falling
Down.
You are falling
Down.
It is not okay
You will be harmed
Once you hit the ground
Like trees in the forest
You are without sound.
Among the brambles we lay
The fallen that know anguish
We are here.
Pulsed in the rotting soil
Covered in grime and sp
A mournful morning
It seemed to be
Full of humans
Beckoning misery
The sun is erased
From its own sky
And now the rain drowns
The pedestrians passing by
Yet here I gaze my eyes
Under black umbrellas & over black coats
Listening to the cry of raindrops
And the deafening dreaded notes
How wasteful tears seem to be
Only hitting filthy ground
A rarity when you see them flee
But when they fall; None are found
But among the dark figures
There was a yellow raincoat
That softly splashed a puddle
And carried a soul afloat
Why are you not crying?
Like it was expected
It was as though
You are sorrow-protected
She looked up at me
The Only Perfection
The only perfection we seem to keep
Is the circles among our eyes
No one knows them better than me
The windows of our soul
All arrayed and prismatic
Say the brighter the eye
The wiser the soul
But you'd be wrong
Her eyes are dark midnight
Color of blade grass in moonlight
The coal of a worthy silvery soul
Naive and breathlessly beautiful
The eyes so dim and silent
Reaps the living
And shades the pain
The eyes you take from me
Just make her rays turn to light
Brighter than fake neon signs
Although she would disagree
Her eyes have no glow
But darling, it is the darkness
That makes your life whole
White Shadow
You are with or against me
Standing in doorways
Staring at me from a dismal view
My white shadow
A ghostly essence trails me
"You are there are you not?!"
I'll screech in deafening silent
To no avail you float from sight
You are my manic, my internal instability
The mask that haunts me on your face
The pure piece and black smile
Eluding my eyes but not my mind
Your breath washing out my lungs
You are of echoes
The radiated noise from the ground
Seeping up my muse
Shatter these glass ribs
And claim my heart
Rumors, fiends, and friends
You are tearing me apart
From a Breaking Shield
Breaking is more valiant than dreadful. It is the essence that shields go by. In preservation, it claims our fate and churns our minds like the earth. It is within our duty to be reliant, to be protective, and to be vulnerable. We are breaking shields.
If we stay reliant we will be virtuous. The wielded shield presses on and eases the calamity of its user. It gives security. It gives reassurance. Whether we are used to block or to hide, it is there. An indirect form of safety is its guidance, but such guidance will grant arrogance or impurity. We may be feeble from breaking, thus making us prone of falling. In unity,
Life Worth
To live for existing
To believe we are placed with reason
To love our beings and await eternity
To be given and grant purpose
To love and be loved
To maintain to remain to maintain and remain
To understand our heartbeats
To write scribbles
To feel broken and free
To live with regret
To struggle and survive
To die happy and worried
To plagued ignorance in our hearts
To step out of the light, into the damned
To be the snap of breaking mirrors
To what we shall be and crave to become, cheers.
Stardust
What foolery do you possess?
Piece of you to this game of chess?
The shame you carry to thy grave
The epitome of a cold cave
We are full of worry
If not, then of fury
No equilibrium
To all and some
Show me the truth
Don't hide your mask anymore
Show me, wicked youth
The scars upon a mouth you bore
Twisted twine was once mine
For what I see and perceive
Is nothing less than eve
Shunned, by reconcile
Now the burden I bloom,
A pitiful smile
That string was so brittle, so thin
Had me believe I was born of sin
Wishing for a hope I had found
To the earth, to its love, bound
So I am
A broken human
The stitch full of

Hearty Monsters
This shaking needs to cease
My hope
Let this soul rest in peace
Who do we think we are?
Someone always shooting for stars
But that sad truth remains
That we have a mixture of internal pains
The stab of emotion
From breathing, it hurts our lungs
From our words, it cuts our tongues
We are sad, scared
Who are we to be dared
This is to what we refer
Our dreams are filled of monsters
We thought once, they were under the bed
And today, we see they're in our hearts instead
Keep calm
Rest the troubles on an open palm
Rely on our readied endeavour
Keep the ties we sever
What we hope
Is that we belong
In this plac
Something
What do you want be
When we grow up?
Something exciting, something cool
I could never make my mind up
It's a solumn rule
Don't get me wrong
I am happy
Or so I think
I can't really see a future
My missing link
But when I run in the rain
The world is solitude with the pain
Keep running, I'll try
I can't hear the plea I cry
So I kept screaming in the wind
Just watering down the heart I singed
What do I wish?
Something measly, something coy
A meaningful meaning, to a simple boy
Like that smile under that stare
Or sleeping to the music we blare
Something to wish
A fish!
Kidding, that was only to rhyme
I feel this
Born to Be
Let's hear it for us
The life of waiting for the city bus
The same sounds of rejoice
Is within our fragile voice
Difference is the hidden bliss
Being you comes into view
The future is always gleaming
The truth, reliant on one's seeing
In every fiber of the being
They believe me to be a pawn
But as history tells
It's always darkest before the dawn
I am life, a dramatic pretense
I am breathing, my damnable essence
Change a heart
Become tolerant
Let's be taught
But choose, we cannot
Let's never fear nor flee
From who we were born to be
Fatal Signs
I don't want to break the hope
I wish not to hang my head by rope
But to fly higher than the stars
Just so I can forget the worldly scars
Just so I can forget the past
Just so I can remember why I last
Let me sing on a harp I hold so close
Passed down to me from my ancestors' morals
Wishing to stop all these senseless quarrels
Will my eyes suffice?
I have seen my share of sorrow,
Yet all I hear is sacrifice
Is that all I need?
My manners will plead
No sacrifice is too great to put away this hate
My fragile fingers numb from repition
My eyes are broken from this obsessive cognition
This is all that is me
All that
Petrified
The breathe is still there
The cold chill down my neck
It is in the air
Lift this hex
The cause of all my despair
The eyes follow me everyway I turn
I must yearn, I wish to hide
I am what I am, petrified
Put up my hood I should
Sprint away from this laughter
And escape before my mind shatters
What brings this upon me?
I believe it is my own intuition
This self-conscious feeling
A childish form of sealing my defense
A pasttime that leaves me in such suspense
Change my heart, let go of this frustation
Save me from this endless deprivation!
The anxiety, it's controlling
I am infected with nerves
Oh the pain! My hea
Curiosity
Understand the understandable
A simple task at best
But will it leave our mind to rest?
It's that niche we share
A fathomless curiosity
Of more
Of change
Of creation
Predictions and inferences shuffle
Bubbles of thought twist
Will logic persist?
Shall I close my eyes
To open my mind
Speak without meaning
Laugh without sunshine
Curious to bloom with cognition to grow
Let us sever our severe temptation
Accept unworldly imagination
What Jesus Said About Homosexual Acts (SSS) by MetalShadowOverlord, journal
What Jesus Said About Homosexual Acts (SSS)
Another year, another October, another "Spirit Day"...which means another seemly annual Spirit Day Special. This time, I'll be tackling a topic that, once again, goes completely over the heads of most people. Anyway, fasten your seat belts, it's either going to be a bumpy ride...or incredibly boring for those disinterested (why are you even reading this then? XD)
We already know that, in the Bible, homosexual acts are spoken of in a more than negative tone numerous times in the Bible, both in the Old and New Testament. The most commonly known and referenced verses are the following:
"Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that i
They found me slumped over in the school showers
With a towel loosely wrapped around my waist
Scalding hot water was blistering my skin
As I bled from an unspeakable place
A hard-handed teacher dragged me to my feet
With little or no sign of sympathy
For the bruising to my feeble framed ribcage
And the fractures to my identity
I think they all thought that I had it coming
As no one was willing to testify
That the sodomy inflicted upon me
Was something to which I hadn’t complied
Boisterous boys laughing in the corridors
As I shamefully limped throughout the day
Not a thought for the pain that was inflicted
Just worried for what my pa
Speak
Speak to me
Im human
Like you
With emotions
Intellect
A heartbeat
But youd rather I was dead
Lifeless
A mere corpse
So to everyone who thinks that
Im alive
And can hear
Speak
See
Like you
Im alive
And theres nothing you can do
To change that.
Like smoke in the wind they fade away
As if I had sinned their smiles do not stay
One by one they silently slip from my grasp
And slowly my laughter becomes a ragged rasp
I do not blame them for letting me go
I know that they don't have to miss me so
But I only wish that they remember me still
Or at least as much as I know that I will
I feel, displeased as these
seeds, sprout within me.
Skin peels, mystery,
revealed for all to see.
Unhealed, the alchemy, botany,
potion of lies.
I can't hide undercovers,
from these monsters inside.
False messiah, infernus fires,
optometry of misguided eyes.
I am the seducer, the Medusa,
one look leaves you paralyzed.
Twisted psychology, sadistic philosophy,
these brittle ribs I pry.
Masochistic black-heart, grew in the dark,
of this very soul of mine.
Entwined, in a bind,
where heaven-hell coincides.
I feel conflicted, jurisdiction,
two ram-horns collide.
Why are you surprised at this demon that you find?
You, made me who
You should date a guy who writes by BlakeCurran, literature
Literature
You should date a guy who writes
Date a guy who writes. Date a guy whose fingers are stained with ink, whose pockets are filled with pens, and whose eyes smile and dance with curiosity. Date a guy who notices things like the colour of your hair and the way you have your coffee, not because he has to, but just because it’s a habit of his to notice things. Date a guy who can barely get around a computer, but is expert with his word processor. It doesn’t matter; he prefers pen and paper anyway.
Find a guy who writes. You’ll find him just outside a library. He’ll like the idea of being outside, on the verge of a thousand worlds, a few steps away. He&rsqu
I look at my life
In the palm of my hand
And see many things
And a whole new land
Nobodys perfect
And or am I
But I can see wonders
In my soft blue sky
It shows me my dreams
It shows me my fears
But when I let go
My vision clears
I know who I am
I dont want to change
If I was another
I wouldnt know pain
I know how it feels
To be torn to shreds
But its built up my strength
I know what to dread
I have been strengthened
By my imperfect life
But Ill live to the full
I wont be cut by its knife
