gasping for air
as i drift downstream
on currents of chaoticonfusion

unable to near the shore of serenity
trying to help
silenced by sin
sneaking by barriers up
blocking the borrowed breeze

carrying a lesson plan
promising to lift the curse
on my petrified soul

weighing down my paralyzed wings
dragging painful preminitions
lurking below...

enticing shards inviting
me to stroll
acrosseductivesoilooking
at my grounded soul
as a meal

feeding failures faith frolicking fear
fermenting fissuresembling
wood....i didn't know was
a piece of my shattered
halo burrowing its
splinters abstrusely

withintricatemotionstarving
for comforted passion to
stroke my back

relaxing me and sending a silent
reassurance i am destined to
savor
salvationskiespeaking
in spiritual
toungesturing
for me to give up and go with
the flow...

approaching the waterfall of wisdom
welcoming my withered bits of
threaded thorns tearing
open a portal of
pleasing palaces

planting my seed into clouds
recycling myself

mixed with a hint of rain
exploding into a mist
so i'm able to seep
beyond pores
puncturing

droplets of dedicated feelings building
a storage room stocked full with
packaged
euphoricheneducationslaught
corroded with studies of
violence.....

vivid in velcro vissions vibrating volumes
vanishing in vicidaydreams of velvet
sunrises setting shattered sight
shiverring on the Tropic of
Capricorn

diving down dilluted drains disintegrating
deviant dillemas dropping off temptation
teasing me with torment

once and for all
i refuse to turn
the other cheek
and recieve all
these anger
filled
words

no longer will they peel my bark
