I glimpse the tears of my hanging blinds
Blatant, naked, barefaced
Swallowing the trite world outside
The macadam streets
& outstretched trees
The moldering buildings
& grass that's turned green
It's feigned by this all today
Powerless to take granted
Kindred is my soul
As if the world got a face lift
without me looking
Prowless slut
Wish I still hated her
He was my Turnicate by burden-of-thought, literature
Literature
He was my Turnicate
& I have lost my virginity
The absence of excess entrusted upon me
during parturition
Virtue strayed?
Substantiate just made spectacle through my eyes
Placing its charcoal hands to my face
& I tread on clouds
Blithesome from these tarnishes
& the horizon makes off
Even as I lay these occurrences to rest on page
While the unconscious filter remains
Overwhelmed & battered
Keeping an eye on the chasm of stout in front of me
& the other looking in
Watching the symphony I play in my head
With the man who claims opulence
in a skin he calls his own
& he is a butterfly in a lions mane
While I aspire to be in mine
But the distant vo
If I could be you by burden-of-thought, literature
Literature
If I could be you
Vulgarity is just a form of maladroit
Dearth of thought, lavishly inept
Divert your mouth that wafts
the zephyr into a flurry
Benighted you protract as gale
& wheneer my acrimonious timbre
crops up through the land
Exhausting to deterrent your billow
of seemingly bawdy discourse
feigned by the world close at hand
I watch the rain that wanes throughout your skies
become limpid with your imprudent fabrications
& the widespread ear simply perceives
this simple "abstraction"
& the disparagement
falls on my loam
Everlasting rudimentary
of unnecessary proposals
With gauche
& inelegant bearings
A throe inside
bringing abasement
Feelings become solidified
fear personified
Intentions awash
sere into view
Another rejection
asphyxiates my lungs
One final farewell
images fade
Last breath leaves
love maimed
His mind wonders
A new journey is embarked
One of self discovery & realization
Noises begin to fade
One man seemingly all alone
Looses himself in thought
Rising from the seat he's so closely nestled to
Floating through the opaque barrier that has been
Separating him from his dreams
Birds become strangers that
He begins to meet on the streets
Clouds, the new land below his feet
Stars as street poles along his path
The world begins to shrink
The man enters a new realm of reality
Colors so vivid, he can hardly stand to look
Space seeming so unique and purposeful
How could anything be of insignificant existence
The new reality
His mind wonders
A new journey is embarked
A sense of self discovery & realization
The world begins to shrink
Noises droned
One man, being, all alone
Thoughts come quickly
Rising from the seat
Floating through the ceiling
Joining the birds
Then the clouds
Then the stars
Colors so vivid, he can hardly stand to look
Images, figures, never before imagined
And standing in front of him
A clouded figure
Outlined in light
Following his own self
Revealing his own truths & self being
A man becomes more
More than any laws or theorys have ever bound him to
Folloing along more
Embracing his mind & spirit
The new being becomes aware
Slave to the noise
Noise of the world
Telling us
What to wear
How to talk
How to walk
Listen to the noise
Don't resist
Resistance; white noise
To be over looked
Over heard
Chained to society
You are what they create
Listen to the noise
Sexual Insecurities by burden-of-thought, literature
Literature
Sexual Insecurities
Masqueraders, hiding true form, who they once were
A world apart, banishing them into their own
Unspoken, hushed, over looked
Hidden behind doors
Doors; Prudity, insecurity
Sexual conformists
Choice or instinct?
Man or animal?
Open the window, take a look, it takes maturity
One most lack
Making masqueraders of us all
Hiding on the other side of the door
Liers, deceptionists
Who truely lives?
Open the window
I am me, not you... by burden-of-thought, literature
Literature
I am me, not you...
I whisper through life
Always a Shadow
A human discretion
Guilty of all
But to you
I am a lie
Self pictures I create
Weak protests & breaks
Acheing storm of music
& art
Dreaming of misty rain
Moons flood my nights dream eye
Sitting near a window, discontent
Here I watch the moment

Beast in the Beauty
Approaching this figure in the night I realize just how fearful I am. This being placed so high, nestled ontop of the shelf of humanity. One wrong move and the figure falls to the ground and shatters itself into a puzzle of secrets and lies. Oh how dreadfully fearful I am. I begin to think of how I might make my first strike. Bewildering it with my own sense of society or justifying words with action. I never take action. I just become awkward and inept. Rejection, the beast of my beauty. How many nights have I feared these demeaning words. Wisting away in thought of contempt love; prolonged lust. A shiver through my spine as I app
There sits a boy inside my mind
Sitting there he taps all day
Taking my head for quite a ride
All he wants is to play
Playing with my head
Causing some distress
So I'll lay in my bed
I'll try and rest
Still the boy insists
Playing and tapping
All I can do is try and resist
But it seems I am lacking
I can't seem to win
He is always in there
I hope this is not a sin
For this situation is quite rare
Now I'll have the last laugh
And get him out of here
I'll bear all my rath
Putting this gun in my ear
I lose myself in this place
Seeming to always awaken with a new face
It cannot be told
My story I will always hold
Keeping it from the unwelcome eye
Hiding myself in one big lie
My tall tale is what you hear
For my real life is what I fear
I'll lock it tight
Making things right
Never letting out
What truely I am all about
Far from existence
Trapped in his head
He shows no resistence
Practically dead
His mind has set sail
He fades aways losing his head
He will always fail
So now he sits, practically dead
No one will talk
For nothing is said
They just keep to their walk
For he is practically dead
Make no effort towards him
Just turn your head
It won't be a sin
He's practically dead
This must be love by burden-of-thought, literature
Literature
This must be love
She loved me
She thought I was beautiful
She tried to make me happy
She said I was perfect
She made me feel like i had a purpose
She liked me to hold her
She liked spending time with me
She drifted away
She didn't want to see me
She didn't want me to touch her
She made me feel worthless
She said I sucked
She made me feel like shit
She thought I was disgusting
She hated me
He sits there staring out the window everyday
He speaks to no one and is not spoken to
All he does is think about his past and how he came to be here
He thinks of that cold night were he changed his life forever
The blood of his famly, his whole life, on his hands
He has put many scars on himself trying to supress one pain with another
but it never works
He's left with those haunting screams until his death
There is nothing he can do to forget about what he has done
How he never even took a second thought to sliding that blade through her soft skin
How he doesn't regret taking the life of a child who hadn't even yet experienced life
You don't care, it's so unfair
I love you so, but you don't know
Deep down I know it's true, I need you
I dream of the day, when thats what you say
But it will not come, for I'm not the one
I'm not what you need, for me you don't plead
I know I'm hopeless, I know I'm worthless
But maybe some day, in some way
I will be discovered, as your one and only lover
But now and forever, I will always surrender
Not knowing what to do, not making a move
I shall sit here and wait, until I see my cruel fate
I will always be alone, so now I'll prepare to get my heart sewn
For all the mistakes I will make, and all the pain I will take
Knowing I

Literature
The meaning of life
In this place
Here I lie
What a waste
Soon to die
No one knows
My true meaning
I won't let it show
Never the weaping
My heart now
Is bitter and cold
I now know how
We all fold
Changing the thought
Of what we once believed
Letting it rot
What a relief
We don't need to care
To all who are relentless
Life isn't fare
It's all pointless

And the wind never blew as hard as the day that you left
blowing down my walls my barriers
leaving me for all to see
and I plea oh how I plea
that this tragedy may not be reality
and I rhyme not because I can but because it's all I know
into the world I'll now go
into the night
but not without one last fight.
