It’s Behind Me, Isn’t It?

A poem on addiction and trauma — It’s another one of those days There’s an itching at my neck A temptation that gets in the way An addiction hand delivered with a blank check I seldom look in my rear view mirror I try to keep my eyes moving forward For the reflections are always closer than they appear Headlights…

High Above the Clouds

A poem/story on the powers of regret — In a small quaint town Resting high above the clouds A community swells in the evening chill Glowing in remembrance of their redemption Lands once deserted and barren Housed the existence of just one son Left alone to pick up the pieces Billions of shards of self needing stitches The…

Apologies in the bright lights

A poem on abuse — Photo by ian dooley on Unsplash Abusive Translusive Celebrate all your momentums Passive Intensive Partake in all your delusions Containment Estrangement Manipulate all the reasons We could do this all day long Lying in the vomit of a midnight fog Singing pretty little songs Hypnotizing all year long A ribbit…

The Man on the Mountain

A Poem on the Patriarchal Design — Do you like my shoes? Are they colorful enough? Did you read the news? It’s not wild enough When you look at your phone You can’t read the room With an unhealthy tone You isolate the room You fool You need Your space You know Your face Your nation Your…

What’s Inside?

A poem against the external — Rhythm bounces off the mind Like a mental map of wind chimes If it’s not in front of me At what point does it lose its celebrity Does it still remind from the shadows Around the corner will a pained mine willow Bound to lovers a pilled life could wither Against the sound…

ADHD

An attempted explanation of my ADHD — I’ve tried to explain it Never mind, just forget it There’s a rash on my hands Anxiety induced, but I’m unsure Was it two table spoons Or is that only during a full moon? That reminds me of Twilight A story of the dog in a fight But not like…

The Language of Success

A poem on persistence — Persistence is the key to all things Yes, indeed From family and friends To all things in between Movie quotes fill the mind Heard but never understood Tales of dogs in a fight Standing strong through the bite Views of the hero on their back Rising to meet their Goliath’s…

Update Required

A poem on refreshing the mind — It’s been nearly a year since I’ve felt the sun I’ve seen glimpses through the window But the journey outward greets me only with the chill of a ghostly night Whispers of what could be Echoing through the dark Reinforced only by a limitless ring Who’s presence was grown during an…

New Inspiration

A poem on defeating your demons and finding new meaning — Often I sit down to write Searching to find myself within Comparing to pieces of past Before The emotion felt so palpable Page after page breaking down The Demons that hid in the dark Always Flowing from pen to paper Trapping ghosts between the page Relieving the power they hold above Now I find that the demons are gone Maybe for just a moment Taking inspiration along with it
