We too, feel alone,
Trapped in the reality
Of isolation

All the happiness
That I once injected in
Me is wearing off

I see pure beauty
Before my death, but it is
Merely a mirage

Transforming completely; a

A Punkish Experience
A cluster of pent-up energy,
Chugging guitar riffs,
Hardcore pounding drums,
Deep basslines, and
Rough vocals suffocates me.
A volatile atmosphere compels
Me to headbang to the rhythm,
As if the music has possessed
My very soul.
All of my rationale is clouded
By a barbaric instinct to groove
In a violent manner.
I am a willing slave,
A free captive,
Forfeiting my spirit
To the animalistic majesty
Of the music.

Just Below Heaven
I am just below Heaven.
My spirit is transcending,
Moving gracefully through
Brilliant skies of blue.
I am just below Heaven.
I reach out for sections of cloud,
Hoping to grab onto a fluffy surface
And peer through to see what lies beyond.
I am just below Heaven.
I am maneuvering through undisturbed
Atmospheres, swimming through an ocean
Of gases and nothingness.
I am just below Heaven.
I can practically see the curvature of Earth
While angels approach me;
God’s hand reaches out to carry me.

Mother Is Dying: Part 2 (Filicide)
Mother is infuriated
Mother is irritated
Mother is agitated
Mother is aggravated
Tormented by Her children
Sickened by Her children
Scarred by Her children
She is beginning to die
Mother was gentle
Mother was accepting
Mother was enduring
Though mother is now corrupted,
Similar to Her children
Her anger boils from her very core
Swirling vortexes of hatred dominate the skies
Her loathe floods Her children’s lives
The incarnate of Her disgust with Her children

Humanity Redefined: Part 4 (The Omega)
Though greed was responsible for
The invasion, greed would also be
The fuel for humanity’s survival.
Harvey Trenton Smith-
Though singlehandedly causing the invasion,
He would be the key to ending it.
A molecular dismantling ray,
Possessing such unequivocal potency
Nothing could escape disintegration.
With help from the world’s governments,
The device was mass produced.
One last chance to ward off the Xeno-Creatures
A force field suddenly encompassed Earth
The Xeno-Creatures activated a dimensional rift
The inexplicable energy radiated in space.

I Still Love the City, But the City Doesn't Love Me
Some have told me the city will ruin me
Some said the city is an ugly place
The city has marred better men than me
I hadn’t lived in the city for quite some time,
But living there again was an amazing experience
The city glowed with a dazzling beauty,
Pumping a vitality in my veins
Through my heart, an exuberant,
Youthful feeling of excitement
I let the city have my heart.
I thought the city gave me hers.
This love was not meant to last.
I had to leave the city for a little while.
The city couldn’t handle the distance,
Provoking the city to eject me from
The city’s heart, ripping and tearing
