at a break in the atmosphere,
I find my reasons,
not to hold my breath.

I’ve been taught
to cry-
childish tears
over paper cuts

scream like the alarm went off
because it’s right there:
in front of you

You must be blind.

Long nights,
sleepless nights

Dog chases cat
cat chases mouse
echoes are nothing to me
but an endless circle

always so full of hope:
stargazer (might as well watch the sun)
optimistic (you're only fooling yourself)
insane (I fit right in)


labels are endless

Survive a day as me
and guess what-
you win.

She knows what she wants,
she knows who she wants,
she knows what she is,
and what she must become

Long nights,
Sleepless nights

'I don’t believe you,
you aren’t real.'

Blacktop melting,
3 meals a day-
I can taste it now

This is a cool stream of consciousness poem.  You might like to watch spelling though.  

However, on the whole, this poem hit a cool chord with me and for some reason creates a neat vibe in my mind as I read it.

I enjoyed this poem - it has the sting of desolation to it.  There are quite a few lines that stood out to me.  Well done

i have people...where. please tell me where, cause i see no people....i am alone...in the corner of a dark room, writing sad poetry, with tears falling onto the ink smearing it, as the pages grow colder from glances untold by the truth i write. its a poet's dream and my reality that's the only thing i can depend on.

Great poem. A sort of quest to feel whole, and instead, feeling holes.
