Trapped in Dissolution

Her ability to feel no longer lingers from her inner chest|

Replaced with an emotionless sense of the world around her steps|

Instead of looking up she sees only the ground|

Not the faces which once laughed and smiled|

She built her own road to walk on|

But nothing in the background|

No grass|

No trees|

Only a deep black screen|

Static hides the image|

I once dreamt of where she would end|

On a road with no hope|

A slope hill heading down towards the abyss|

I once heard laughter and joy created from those lips|

Anger took her soul and wrapped itself around her shoulders never to let go|

    I love this. It definitely struck some memories of when I felt depressed or angry. I'm amazed at how much I felt like you can connect with and understand a woman! lol

    This is a sad poem. Especially towards the end. Even though you say "anger took her soul and wrapped itself around her shoulders to never let go"...for some strange reason, I still feel some sense of hope. A sense of "maybe this is not the end".

    Sorry to hear you felt this way. I felt like this as well.
    And yes! I can understand women I think because of my sensitive side and maturiry, women are so strong and beautiful. I appreciate women.

    I'm glad you understood the feeling of hope I wanted to convey at the end.

High-Class Noon

I turn my tongue green with a pint of mint listerine. A blistered knee. Eyes bleed from the passing of a centipede. Don't stand close to me I erupt in a millisecond, conforming into a catholic priest. I stand high underground. The sounds of an orchestra swimming in the mud with the sounds of an orca. I boast I had it all, but now I can only hope that they don't take away my last adderalls. Don't test with a number 2 pencil, give me a red pen so I can pencil him in. And they call me a backpacker. Hike up your mountain till I find the erupting fountain and go for a deep sea dive, only to come back to land in the space of a spaceship, blasting off with my sins. High-class noon, blast off past the moon with a fork and a spoon, I went too far; now I need to rewind so I can get my piece of the cake, in a cheesy plate. Its an arms race to the finish line, my A.K. is too heavy to glide across, I could only make it past half of the track. I had to make a pit stop and grab my Tech ...

Excavating Thoughts

Excavating thoughts purge the deep swell in an abundant forest filled with catacombs| Think not of what to say| Rather| Think of formations and placement for your words| The expression expedite hidden phrases| A realm in multitude of scenic shades| Which fill stains and covers from edge to edge| Put in motion a rehearsed visual| Captured for later interpretation and judgement| A glory outdrew| A painting foreseen inside that thought| Once emerged from a projector working its way from picture to sound| From sound to dialects| From dialects to expression| From expression to memorized interpretations or unsightly inked writings| Exclusive to emotional reincarnations| Contemplation and relegation amount heavy loads| To collapse the foundation in which laid heavy groundwork| Obscure water waves regulate the sounds of prejudgments| Before seen in the obscurity of the themes| Awake from the thankfulness of your mind| And enter into the depths of the b...
