All that I feel has been made up of shards
Broken pieces of things I once knew
These unnatural signals now mess with my head
What was once red has now become blue
Everything that I see doesn't seem to be real
Though it looks right its just not the same
Maybe I'm just asleep and its all just a dream
Or did I grab something I couldn't tame
Artificial emotions have me coming undone
When I breathe all the air tastes like plastic
All the colors seem off and things just don't feel right
Every voice in my head sounds sarcastic
Is this some strange state I've somehow stitched together
Fragile thoughts now refuse to connect
Have I been blind so long I can no longer see
Will my own heart I have to dissect
If it all comes together I hope things will change
As I'd hate to live like a machine
Being numb to it all doesn't feel go for long
This blank state I could not have foreseen

Promise Me
If I tied you to a tree
Told you to stay if you love me
Would I some day return to see
Your skeleton still there for me
Or would you be like everybody
And just abandon me?
If I beat you, almost to death
But then nursed you back to health
Would you love me like your breath
Or view me as the theft to your soul wealth?
If I tied you to a tree
Begged you to never leave me
Would you still try to get free
Never wanting to be near me
Or would you wait and see
If you're the one for me?
If I broke your bones,
Struck you with stones,
Then left you alone,
Would your heart still be my home?
If I tied you to a tree
Commanded you to wa

The Death Within Life
Raging Seas
Dark skies
Endless tears
Cold fires
That is what life is.
No fairy godmothers
or knights in shining armor.
Only witches and cauldrons
recipes for disaster.
There are no three wishes
or steeds that fly.
No hero, no powers,
certainly no rewinds.
Life is but time
flowing forward.
Spent by little moments
we call ours.
It is never enough,
not once.
Fragments engraved
they're left to remain.
Not even our mind, our knowledge
can prolong our hours.
To live them as they come
seconds remembered, never forgotten.
To let them pass
by our envy and our pride.
No wonder we are fools
both then and now.
Not one of us

Streets
Say goodbye to the streets for me,
Because I won't be seeing them again.
Tell them how I loved their noise,
How it kept me from sleeping at night.
The way they took me away when I ran,
It was so calm when they subdued me,
Took away my thoughts when I couldn't.
Tell them I will be missing them so,
Because nobody knew me like they did.
Say I will remember them forever.

Wow, this poem was a lot of fun to write. I had no idea what I was writing when I started off but it gradually came together over the course of the poem. Honestly, this one feels oddly mechanical and experimental. It just feels.. fresh.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy it. I'd love to hear what you think.
