Doing whatever I can to refrain
from seeking solace in familiar pain.
Mourning old habits and comforting lies.
Helpless, I watch as a piece of me dies.
Struggling to keep from turning away,
accepting that it has to be this way.
I hope it helps my broken mind to mend,
but still I know that this won't be the end.

Relive
and you and i relive our joy every night without much thought about why we do it we share the details of our secret loves with one another rekindling the fire that sparked it all the glimmers the sparkle the glamour of that first interest leaves you and i hungry and i believe you and i are growing closer by these addictions and vices we feed at 3:15 am this dream exchange is going to crash one day because the money we stake on this dream talk is quite a big gamble and we, the poor and sensitive, are running out of free passes yes one day either we will consume our dreams or they will consume us.

pen across paper
the rhythmic tapping of keyboard running
my being is letters
yet i cannot make words

struggle we call life
The hands of the clock are crooked,
Time slowly falls away,
A never-ending battle,
We slip from night to day,
A conflict we cant escape,
A struggle each step we take,
Adrift in a sea of chaos,
From this nightmare we cannot wake,
From rage to calm within,
Cycles of rushing and waiting,
A balance none have mastered,
A duel of loving and hating,
Our morality's source unknown,
How do we so freely forgive our sin,
Yet shy away from our virtues,
As we live in a strangers skin,
A contemptible bunch are we,
Performing both good and evil acts,
Wings of each devil and angel,
Protrude and sprout from our backs,
Waging wars for peace,
Claim to accept yet

I was looking through an old folder full of, mostly unfinished, poems and found this one that I had completely forgotten.
