Anxiety

Tingling fingers
Won't stop
Tracing invisible scars
Of memory's nightmares
Feeling like
Fire fueled electric currents
Making pumping blood
thud
Like Thor's hammer
On a copper nail
Currents of fear
Pulling me under
A river of
running tears
That never fall
Just sit on
Braced lids
Each a Humpty Dumpty
Egg
Waiting to feel
The surrender of
Brokenness
Knowing no
Man can piece
The pieces of me
together
No rhyme
No reason
Just the ebb and flow
Of anxiety's seasons

Fate

Fate is a fickle beast
only fools
can try to tame 
we can try to blame
heartbreak
on time and circumstance
on the off chance that
turning clocks will renegotiate 
the loss
but time is only the scribe 
of Fate 
circumstance the pen
that Fate fills with red ink
leaving us to think 
only about the blood pumping 
through shattered veins 
thinking about losses and gains
and pain management 
a whole life spent
hoping Fate will
changes its ways
always truly knowing 
Fate will keep on going
exactly as it always has

Growing tree.

When you take the time to look
At all the things you took 
For granted
By vision slanted
From heavy expectations
And childlike idealizations 
Of what the world should be
Too blind to see
That there is no rhyme or reasoning
To being
Life is not the destinations 
It's the contemplations
Made during the journey  
The laughter and the worry 
When the night is darkest
When the mean reds are starkest
When the green brings madness
When the blue brings sadness
When the sun is so bright 
All you see is the light 
That is what keeps us spinning 
Not the losing or winning 
When you take the time to look 
At what you took
For granted
The seed of hope is planted
The bud of life reborn
From the ashes of what was torn 
And burned 
But that seed can be turned 
Into the tree that grows each day 
Providing you shade along the way.

What is it?

Real Love can never be 
a mistake
We make...
When the chips are down
And there's no one around
Real Love is 
what keeps you going
Keeps you growing stronger..
Even if it cannot last...
Even when it fades into the past...
Even when it is one sided...
Divided unevenly 
cut
Like cheap pizza
If it can be a mistake
That you leave in your wake
If it doesn't mean everything
Than it was never anything.

I'm just...

I'm just a breaker of things
never able to stop
before I bend the line 
so far it snaps. 
I'm just a ruined soul
that ruins 
perfect things
because I could. 
l'm just a dead king's touch
but it's fools gold 
with nothing but 
a toxic backlash.
I'm just a broken thing
making more
broken things
with no way to fix them. 
I'm just a hurricane
leaving everything 
shattered in
my wake.
