I'm twisted inside.
My emotions are unstable;
And just like my emotions, my choices are also unstable.
It keeps going back and forth.
I'm twisted inside;
And don't know what to do.
It is very confusing.

You play me like a fool
Like a character in story
In a twisted narrative
Waiting for It to end

Maybe the road
was too twisted,
or could it be the ride
that is too bumpy
for us
to hold on to?

We made promises
that are meant
to be broken,
we made love
that was not
passionate enough.

I thought you
were my forever,
but you turned out
to be my hardest goodbyes,
I will miss your
morning and night wishes.

I can’t find
a way to you,
you are the home
that I will never
come back to.
#AlmostHome talks about a place/person that we will never come back to.

"Behind   the   doors   of   Silence
I'm   the    tree    that's    never   Grown
I'm    the    prisoner    of   your    Pauses
I'm    the    ball    that's    never     Thrown
The   captive   of   your    Caution
There   is    ice     between    my    Teeth
I've    wandered    down    the    twisted     Way
Where    all     the     fences     Meet."

Sitting still with moving thoughts
Pretending nothing can break me more
You come and go like the wind
Leave me wondering if I should feel warm or cold

Suffering for sanity
Only smiles on my face
Guts are sickened of my imagery frame
Praying for a better God’s plan

Every once awhile I win the battle
Of sanity and peace within
There you come again with twisted turns
Blurring my worth with your twisted says
I will still welcome you back with everything I've got in me

Don't believe the words that seep through
They're often twisted by my inner self
Protecting me from you
Protecting me from me
Saving myself for when I'm appreciated
Broken Pieces Apr 2020
Life is confusing, just like the thought
I saw how in love you were, now you got caught.
You played your role,
And took control.
No one saw this ahead
Now we’re left with dread.
Why couldn’t you just be good?
I suppose I just misunderstood.
I wanted to look up to you
But then came something new
You were never a hero
You’re below a zero.
How could I have fallen for your trick?
I guess you were kinda slick.
I guess I just hate myself for how stupid I am
Because now you don’t even give a ****.
First you take control then you take other things,
I was beginning to fly before you clipped my wings.
The funny thing is no one else could see
How you lied saying you’ll set me free.
Now I’m lost in the dark,
I can’t seem to find the spark.
I wish I could’ve see earlier this morality,
But I guess I forgot to look at the reality.

Don't sing
don't shout
don't try to get out.
It's nice and warm in here,
and smells like a slave,
and the grave will come
soon, so try to be brave.
And when you're gone and
rotting, and sunk in the
ground, I'll find a new
little bird that won't
make a sound.
Don't walk, don't run
don't swim towards the sun.
Embrace the darkness, you'll
have lots of fun.
I have my gun, it's loaded
and cocked.
Make a wrong move, and
you're bound to get rocked.
Don't be sick, don't get well.
Don't smell heaven, or skip
towards hell.

Don't feel
don't think
don't talk
don't drink
don't  smoke
don't move
don't live
don't die
don't try,
you'll fail
don't breathe
don't cough, don't sneeze
don't wake up early, or
arrive too late--don't love,
don't hate.
Don't express emotions that
seem insane.
I made my safe little
world, and I like it this time,
and you're frayed on
the edges, and too prone to fly.
So come closer
my little bird and get in the cage.
I'll clip your wings with my
apathy and rage.

Don't look at the moon,
or touch the stars.
Don't play in the fields
or go near the bars
it's not safe there,
so just be afraid.
I like to play tricks
you'll be my knave,
my jack of hearts
my ace of spades;
and we'll pillage and plunder,
and live off the land,
and you'll lie here quietly
in my rotten ******* hand.
Don't quit, don't try,
just sit here
and die
and lie naked in my

mansion of filth,
my consuming wealth
my towering health,
cuz I'm full of stealth and stature
and beauty and grace,
and I'll smear it all over
your ******* little face.
Despite dealing with the face of evil, I will hold my head up high, and to quote Don Quixote, "I have no intention of burning."

moral of the story
is in the end
what destroys me ?
you
destroy me
and enjoy
watching me burn
as you throw
more propane
on the fire
and laugh
as you walk
away
destroy me slowly and you seem to savor every piece
