Story From The Bottle

Story From The Bottle

Power of epic proportions
Created by my devious brain
When I locate my purpose
I explode without refrain

No pre-thought or planning
Just straight forward zeal
When the ignition is sparked
I'll go in for the kill.

Down in the abyss
I'm still heading deeper
I'd open my arms
Alas, no time to greet you

Right hands on the helm
Both feet on the throttle
Left hands gotta grip
'Round the Jim Beam bottle

Mass internal combustion
5.7 cubes bringing the shit
Bludgeon stick in the back
Proficiently scoring a crit

What my pretence is lacking
I more than make up in ardor
Inability to be vanquished
I will never be your martyr

The Price

The Price

My love for you
Solid from the start
I still meant it
Til the day you made us part
All I ever wanted was your love
Unconditionally lost
When push came to shove
Lost was I
In the maze that you built
I won't suffer
I have no guilt
I see you every time
In the eyes of Autumn
I feel you everywhere
As I scrape the bottom
I find myself now
As the seasons change
Alone-awkward
Somewhat strange
Now I stand tall
No longer in the dark
My heart scarred
Where you left your mark
I hope you are happy
And forever content
In her broken home
High is the price of rent

My Wall

My Wall

I remember past days of happiness
Seems so long ago, I must confess
Here, behind the wall I had to build
I am safe from the pain
Bottled-up emotions, I tend to wield
Then came you, but from where?
Why are you so nice to me?
Why do you care?
I grow more curious with each of our talks
Soon, I find you helping me
As we remove some of the blocks
The wall gets lower
And I feel a bit vulnerable
Emotions are growing in me
And the conditions seem favorable
Together, maybe some day
We will topple my wall
Only with your help, will I see it fall
I don't know how to act or what to say
I just want to be with you
And forget my wall today
