D.N.S. Poem: "Search Exhausted"

"So tired

Of searching

For someone

With no

Desire to

Be found."

D.N.S. Poem: "Earned It"

Can't forget
Your bullshit
Won't forfeit
I earned it.

My memories
They haunt me,
Your words
Become taunting

On repeat
No damn sleep
My prayer's weak
No soul keep.

My heartbreak
Is legit
I'll take shit
I earned it.

I'll protest
And regress
Dismissed
By an ice bitch.

I fucked up.
I've learned it.
This bitch
Fucking earned it.

D.N.S. Poem: "False Start"

Each & every

Time I "art"—

I think of the bitch

Who broke my heart.

How soft was I

to believe?

She could give a fuck

'Bout anyone but she.

Never fucking me.

Every single

Time I start—

I consider the bitch

& it tears me apart.

Stupid fucking heart.

D.N.S. Poem: "Mirror"

Your words.
Your eyes.
Filled with beautiful lies.

Your life?
Lived, under the guise
You so deeply despise.

Your depth?
Synthetic.
My obsession: pathetic.

Your dreams?
Your mind?
Consumed by your pride.

My words?
Forever scattered
By this heartbeat pentameter.

My life?
Salvaging what's left,
'Til my final fucking breath.

My depth?
Monochromatic,
For a former substance addict.

Dreams.
Never lie.
But starved & cut-off? They die.

D.N.S. Poem: "Tell It"

"You abandoned me

In my time of need

(for just a minute, bitch.

Let’s tell it like it is)

I was a mess

You got stressed

To much duress

For your mind to process

Loyalty was fleeting.

Your promises? Misleading.

Lucky my heart's still beating

After this excessive bleeding.

Fuck your promises.

Fuck your lies.

Fuck your love—

It fucked my life.

For just a minute, bitch.

Let's tell it like it is."

Love. Always.

P.S. Photo of the street mural taken in Hudson, NY. You'll find it if you park near Poured Candle Bar. While you're there, stop in for a vegan cashew cheese sammy and tell them the author sent you.

Fucking Freestyle: "Deadline Rhyme"

Deadline Rhyme - A Freestyle

Exhaustion
Got me tossin'
In the towel
Feelin' foul.

Gotta edit.
Won't regret it.
Deadlines don't wait
While I procrastinate.

Can't be late.
Won't tempt fate.
Save the self-hate
For future dates.

D.N.S. Poem: "Beside Me"

"#DearNotShakespeare

I'll be the one

You come back to.

I volunteer.

Please, no jeers

I've made it quite clear

There'll be space here

When you're ready

For your rightful place

Beside me."

Love Always,
