The Achilles Heel

.Reading time 1 minute.
The Achilles Heel
Is that I know how you feel
And I spilt those words
Not because I’m away with the birds
But because I wanted you to know
You’re not alone when you move slow
Like a glacier cutting through rock
And I pretended to be something I’m not 
And there’s only so long I can keep it up
Like the sound of you and her making love
It echoes in my mind 
I try to leave it behind 
But it’s imprinted like a dice
That rolled on me for being too nice
To you when you would have devoured
All of the women that you empowered 
With your subtle soul 
And a boy becomes man when he gets old
But I don’t think I like 
Being the wrong side of your spite
And when you bite
Your teeth sink in
That is why I am not with him

Over Amsterdam

.Reading time 1 minute.
I watch the dagger plunge into her heart
When I say I just cannot take part
In this game she wants to play
What is it that the dragon say
If you dare fire, you’ll get burned
And I’ve tangoed with the furnace and I’ve learned
To never quote the things you say
As if they were true anyway
Then I watch her eyes go wide
As if she has nothing to hide
Could it be in innocent prose
I have killed the horse I rode
To the pasture green
As evidenced by the queen 
By my side
But she whispers “you are still alive”
As if the fact passes comprehension 
And I never did get a mention
In any of the stories you told
“What?”, she says “I put you in bold
And in the aforementioned text
You never read the part where we had sex”
That stops me dead for a moment or two
Then I remember I’m dealing with you
And you’re a master of manipulation 
And your education
Is like a trophy you wear 
On your arm but I just tear
The fabric of that particular dress
But you look at me and I’m a mess
Spurning looks and throwing out words
As if they’ll ever be heard
By anyone in the abyss
And she says she’ll miss
The way my shy smile came to her like a gift
Oceans between us and the great rift

The Pain You Inflict

.Reading time 1 minute.
I can not deny it hurt
And made me question my self worth
As he throws barbs across the line
For the way that he does time
And wants me to know the feel
Of the way his pain is real 
And that cutting a deal
Is out of the question now 
But still he pulls me in somehow
Into a sort of heavenly light
I think you’re awesome, alright
And he knows it too
But I can’t ignore that she’s with you
Every night to keep you warm
Imagine you next to her form
As you both share a bed
One where you’re colossally wed 
While I’m tinkering away in the shed 
Making something for your eyes 
That pierce through an ample disguise 
That has shrouded us in mystery
Oh, what a fabrication is history
When it comes to what is here 
And you are always near
To the soul that beats my heart
I didn’t mean for forever to start
But now it has and be damned 
I’m in love with the same old man

Not In A Million Years

.Reading time 2 minutes.
Not in a million years or any version of reality
Could life replace what you mean to me 
And I know I was mad on the phone
A passionate Aries all alone
As you fit me into the box
Of a woman in need of locks 
So I rebel, rebel 
And tell you to go to hell
Coz you don’t understand 
You’ve only ever been a man
And the status quo
Is not something I’d like to keep, so
I smash right through the walls you construct
And I don’t give any fucks 
A delectable female on the line
That only wants to make you mine
And I hear the silent pause
That doesn’t obey any laws
Or gravity
What do you think of me 
I shudder and the earth quake
I’m sitting in the room and I shake 
As I try to hold it all in
But I love, I love him
And I’m hearing voices in my head
One tells me to just go to bed
And rest and keep
The best of me for sleep
Let the softness ensue
And I remember that song came out too
That August but I felt nothing at all
Except like banging my head against the wall
And it is silent desperation as I wake at three
Think the devil is talking to me
And the lights all went out
It coincided with my doubt
So I ran to Jennai
How do I remember the name of the nurse 
That sprinkled sawdust on a golden hearse
That seems to carry my body from place to place 
While the demons just lay waste
To the life I used to know
You told me to just let go…

Misunderstandings And Monosyllabic Replies

.Reading time 1 minute.
Psychosis walks in my door
Tells me that it wanted more
Than just to be locked in a cage
So I find some paper and let it rage
”It was never supposed to be like that”
“I said I love you but I take it back
Coz you just rained holy hell
And all these people say I’m not well”
“Well, what do you expect me to do” 
“I expect you to care, why don’t you”
All these conversations with a man in my mind
Is it telepathy or being left behind 
By my sanity
I utter a profanity
That evinces how I feel
I told the nurse it wasn’t real
So she handed me a pill
Set up a hill
That I have to climb to get out of here
But don’t you see, my dear
I am actually good
And the wood
Is only a forest of trees
For one who believes
And I’m letting on more than I know
If you love me let me go
As I fall onto a mattress of home
I never walk alone
Coz the King is always here
And He makes the scene crystal clear

Is That You?

.Reading time less than 1 minute.
I can feel you
Hairs breadth close
And I’ve fought to find
Love and God knows
That’s not the way
It’s not just what you say
It’s what you are
And I drive a nifty car
But it can’t drive me to the stars
I never meant to break your heart
As I stumble into your arms
I dream of us growing old on farms
With our children around us like the bough of a tree
Covered in leaves of dignity 
As we flourish and hold the space
Of all we thought to create
With our love
It fits like a glove
And telepathy
Is someone just talking to me
Like a radio wave chime
Signaling the intro to a new time
