Getting Grown

Art from instagram—see artist @@danlish1

I’m awake.

I don’t remember all my dreams, but I am alive. So, I can live them and create moments I own. Like the smiles, hugs and kisses of kids chasing death, who find happiness with the strength and tenderness of growing old.

Man of Wonders

Art from reddit.com-jshuawng

When I see faces in the sky, I wonder did their dreams end or find a new beginning?

Were their hopes answered, or did they disappear in clouds of smoke, fading like unheard and unbelieved wishes?

Good Vice

I strengthen the hold on my addictions instead of loosening my grip. Bend them to my will.

Always treat yourself better than you feel!

Empty

Down on my luck waiting for a come up.

Every day, thinking FUCK whoever comes my way, why not love’s gonna end one day. Better to do it my way.

Father forgive who? I ain't forgave myself for not having the wealth poor dads say doesn’t amount to the riches of love.

The lies it takes generations recover from. Makes home a war zone where the wrong company’s allowed. Babies asking why daddy’s always absent or cranky. Cause we live with smoke. We only feel clean when were high from being angry and broke.

My hands guide. Up-down. In-out. Faster. Slow down. If you're talking too much, let me test your throat. I don’t want you to be quiet, so I give you plenty to say on this heated diet.

Grief Pedigree

Peaky Blinders image from Pinterest

Trauma tied to my mind. Refusing to forgive, mad because I’d rather see death than to rectify.

Why?

They didn’t mistake what they meant, but they want me to fertilize their shit. Raised with the taste of malnourishment. Waste-the desert, full on emptiness and pain. Man shouldn’t remain in the dirt. He should mold it as the foundation to display worth.

The ILL Of Man

Art by illot illustrations

The more I help, the more I see the sorrow of mans will, dependent and gracious until I end the help.

Can help end cordially?

Nah-they see abandon when hand-outs lessen and learn to feel blessed borrowing scraps from another man’s check.

Is this the ILL of Man? Madness! The force we believe and imitate.

This must be how cults are formed. Happiness treading where sorrow surrounds. Bodies wasting their form. Quenching thirst from spoils poured into the earth.

Is this the illness of man?

The madness called sanity.

This must be how we ignore warnings. Fooling everyday so we are guided wrong. Stepping into early graves chasing waves. Diving head strong into sorrow- thinking it sells and transforms while love traumatizes us to believe we are better alone.

Press Your Luck

Acting on what’s real to you is legit hope. It creates better stability than legalized dope-you become the smoke, tantalizing minds, stuck in lungs. When they spit, you’re what comes up.

Head Doctor

Image from Pinterest

My favorite place to be is in your head, where I can just be, chill when I need and fuck how I feel.

You know the story. You think it every day. You breath it out, speaking what your life is about. Lines run long. Open you, revealing what you desire to keep hidden. Secrets that elevate, truths, those with low mental stamina believe fake.

I shake it loose, read you, just wanna feel good. Already under pressure. Need to release and somewhere to place it.

Don’t shelf this.

Love N’ Lust-In It All We Trust

We cling to what we hope doesn’t hold memories we don’t wanna believe.

What do I believe, the lust between knees. Pay NO attention since I seen the women, I love get beat, and hug the same dick that made them bleed.

Made it hard to believe in love, easy to believe and trust muhfuckas don’t love nothin but lust.

Aint nothing like control. The only sin I believe in forces you to lose your soul-revenge.

Winners & Losers

Shootin, lootin, fuckin, suckin, grudgin, about what you never were. Swallowing your morals. Jealous of anothers love instead of being proud of surviving your struggle is the loser’s hustle.

Winners all-so-phisticate themselves with navigating the same hell, even is what they get. They abandon a suicidal mindset, self-sabotage is the fools tough, not satisfied until the competition’s death, winning and providing shouldn’t require a dying breath.

Fantastic Addiction

My madness is fantastic. Makes me the realist addict.

My insecurities are the securest part of me. Keeping them whole when I’m mad enough to tear my life to shreds.

Waving for help like it matters, never thought I’d like the same bed that fucks love, comfort is the scab I pick until I wound.

Then I wrap up in attention to lay the hammer to these Shhh!!!! Get from round me if you won’t let me get off my Ahhh!!!!

I got what we all want.

Deep Love

What's the deepest LOVE

Sharing shame without a second thought

Blame never crossing the threshold- making you feel caught out there. No place to hold on. Free to experience heaven on earth knowing hell is close as a wrong turn, of the head, cheek, or eye following a thought to turn every type.

Honest to the slick. Living the fuck-its till you believe your stronger than guilt. Too tough to quit. A love that never ends

In the end, a love we pretend

Not A Care

Not at the table

NOT in front of...

The kids, they feel it like a yell. An attitude sending happiness to hell. Scared like love was taken back.

Not in front of friends! Shouldn't keep them If you have to pretend. Mending their broken home from pieces you dumped after giving up.

Not in front of parents, if they see trauma is inherited, they couldn't gin or beer it. Too high to realize their faults ain’t always perfect.

A Beautiful Mind

My mindset is killing me.

I think I’m more than I believe. Better than you think.

Mindset is killing us.

Always did… Made the war un-suttle. Without words, we can’t avoid exploding hurt.

We are the killers.

Making a way for envy, breathed to life. Wanting things done better than what you’ve become. Under your watch, pushing for a time when guilt is caught in hearts seeking love.

I admit, because my love will make you forget. I am guilty of the mindset that keeps on killing. A lover’s mindset at it’s best.

Loves Blues

My blues were eery. Made me fear myself. Didn’t realize a person would honor their self-destruction

Was it worth the thrown?

Love…powered by obedience, found under every frame-working to keep a lid on vanity-shaming love to stay.
