Apocalypse on love



There’s an apocalypse on love
A raging war, casualties dying
Love is on his death bed and Nobody cares
Love is dripping wet with blood and scars
And nobody cares
 love is fading away, used over heart emoji’s, 
smiley heart eyes, love is being poured into nothing,
 A cover up for meaningless sex,
 A hit and run for some healing.
That’s the only time they actually met
it wasn't to connect the mind and soul
She gave up a part of her being and body,
  over nothing but 
A text message of hearts and kisses, words and promises, a snappy caption 
and a status update.
gave it up on some face time, not actual time
not over a face to face dinner conversation 
 a stimulating interaction that awakens more than just his sexual interest.
but his mind and soul, 
She and he didn't know communication is the spell behind the magic
she doesn't know love and the scripture of what lies between her thighs. 
 they're both rushing into it.
And so love continues to linger and weep 
 On his death bed and nobody cares.
He made a promise in text, didn't have any time to give
he didn't look at her and see infinite possibilities.
she showed too much skin and didn't leave enough mystery
his just boy on the verge hitting it.
another victim to the disease that's killing love
more gun shots, more blood and nobody cares
enough to scream out "hey, i'm not about the killing"  
A pail of murdered bodies and souls
Screaming and yearning
for something real but altogether broken and afraid.
Love has been reduced to nothing but a delusion.
And nobody cares.

Prayer for reason

 Keep the illusion up, let them see purpose. I know you're just there existing. As long as you're breathing, keep that heart beating It don't matter if the muscles on your face won't stretch right It don't matter that your smile is not the same anymore Keep at it, don't give up. Struggle a bit longer You're not dead yet. They see you breathing. They can feel your heart beat. Cold as it is. They can feel your heat, you're not dead. Keep at it just a little bit longer Maybe there's a silver lining just around the corner In this round existence, there's a silver lining just around the corner. Even if you're just surving now, that's all that matters. They are all that matter so live. Live for them, if not for yourself. Love for them, if not for yourself. Do it all for them Maybe you'll find your own in the midst of it all.

Truth Is

Truth is you're always on my mind. I haven't gotten over you, not even close. I still stretch out my arm reaching for you at night. I wake up with the taste of your name on my lips. At the most random times I feel the ghost of your touch on my hips. I smile and turn my head, but you aren't there anymore, You're just a memory, a dream turned into a nightmare A neverending nightmare filled with laughter and joy. You haunt me with your absence and taunt me with your presence. So close, yet ever so far out of reach. My reach. Seeing you happy tears me apart and brings me joy, It's all I ever wanted for you, but with me. Only with me. I still wonder where it all came apart, when did I lose you? I don't remember looking at you and not drowning in love, I thought you'd always be there to keep me afloat and weather this sea of love. But now you're no longer mine, you're the wind to his sails. You glide through these torturous waters and I dro

No rush

 Walk a little slower, there's no rush. You ain't got anywhere to be, slow down. You know there isn't anyone waiting on you, You'll be dancing by yourself anyway, like always. But atleast you won't have to pretend anymore, You can finally let go and lose yourself. The four hours of sleep you'll get are enough to collect the pieces. Just enough to keep a smile on your face. The dark circles are almost invisible when you smile, Who cares if it won't reach your eyes, no one really notices anyway. So take the long way home, keep reality at bay. Just a little longer, fool the world a little longer, Lose yourself in the lie just a bit longer. No harm done. Walk a little slower, there's no rush. You ain't got nowhere to be, you might as well get lost.
