Where can I find love? While sitting indoors, Behind closed doors, Staring at a screen, And everything that happens in between. The stolen glances, At a foggy mirror, The disheveled hair, And stained pajamas, Pasty sallow cheeks, And sunken eyes. Who can love this? With a heavy heart, I fall to my knees, Hot tears … Continue reading I Still Love You

I have a one-way ticket home, No clue where I'll go from there, Definitions of home are blurry right now, Is it the place you share with people you care for?

The sun hovers in and out of the puffy white clouds, Moving slowly across the azure sky. Kids … Continue reading Dreaming of Florida…
I'm sorry you chose to die, So did I. Carelessly you threw away, Everything I struggle to be today. The money and the fame, Did nothing for you. So why should I continue, Down that path. I've been there before, That dark and desolate place, Where the evil mind lurks, Spewing out … Continue reading Why You Chose to Die…

Imagine a sea of humans in a vast expanse of darkness, A lone candle burns in the hands of one, Observing his neighbors unlit candles, He proceeds to share the light of his candle with them. The light grows in intensity and more shadows jump out of the darkness, Almost threatening to snuff out … Continue reading Imagine
Who am I? I don't seem to know anymore! I wake up in the morning And stare blankly at the door. Trapped in a body wracked with limitation, Every breath is an act of suffocation. Am I the sum total of my successes, Or the product of my failures? Everything is a lie and … Continue reading The Dilemma
