extra dose

It's been a few days since I've posted poetry, so here are three lovely tidbits to keep you entertained.

First one: Pretty evident what it's about. 

As I glance into the mirror
I change my stance on this

World

I change my thoughts on this

Place

I scrutinize the imperfections on my

Face

The tears well inside my eyes
My fears start to consume my

Thoughts

Why I am here and what am I

Doing

Pull at my hair notice it

Frizzing

These pants are fitting just a little

Too tight

And I want to be sitting here in the

Dark

To blank out this image of

Myself

Put my insecurities up on a

Shelf

I want what everyone does
The taunting to stop, not your taunting

Mine

The voices in my mind telling my

Bad

You're no good, give up you'll always be

Sad

This world will never love you
Those people will always shove you

Around

No love of yours will ever be

True

For how could anyone ever want you?

Second Poem: Gabe, Clint, etc.

Lead me not into temptation

Won't you please deliver me

My heart is a fragile mutation

Since the beginning of creation

there's existed what cannot be

Lead me not into temptation

It would do to mention

a blink times three

My heart is a fragile mutation

Lock these things away

to some secret faction

If I cross the line

I'll have to throw away the key

Lead me not into temptation

I'd rather face lifelong tormention

than feel like this when he's looking at me

My heart is a fragile mutation

Fuck it all in complete succession

I can't have both

Plain and true

Lead me not into temptation

My heart is a fragile mutation

 Third Poem: My own darkness

Do not stand in my shadow
Its depth may encompass
all you thought was true
and pure in life
Taking you to a land
you only see in nightmares
dream scenes or
fantasies

Taking you into
scapes only seen in my mind
Eyes closed
visions arise
sweeping you away
bringing you close
close to me

No, do not stand in my shadow
the intimacy is far
too deep for my liking
