  1. In his right hand he carries a scythe of death;
    Ready to take away our last breath.
    In his left hand he carries a black book;
    Our fate is in it if we were to take a look.
    He controls whether we live or die;
    So that’s the reason we view him as a bad guy.
    Black cloak conceals his ghostly form for all time;
    We can’t ever see underneath for it’s a crime.
    We feel his presence all the time;
    We can’t live forever, for it’s a crime.
    Soon we all will look death in the face;
    And wonder how we ended up in such a place.
    Until that day comes we continue to live;
    Asking our faiths to take our sins and forgive.
    The Grimm Reaper stands behind every last breath;
    But we shall live our lives and never fear death.
     
  2. You're used to,
    Being fucked and left.
    You have doubts,
    That I'll be the same.

    Your story is pain,
    Causing your mind strain.
    You say you can't obtain,
    Anymore pain or you'll break...

    Tell me what does it take,
    To heal every bad mistake?
    I can't mend your heart,
    But I can help you pick up the pieces...

    Could you be more imperfect,
    And still be as beautiful as you are?
    We're sitting under the cosmos,
    You better wish upon a star.

    I can't tell you you'll be fine,
    When pain scars us for life.
    I can't tell you time heals all,
    When it'll always be a strife.

    You might make a fine wife,
    But pain will always be rife.
    It feels like you've been knifed,
    But then again that's just life.

    Comparing me to others is stupid,
    I hope you're not that foolish.
    I see your insecurities are lucid,
    How sad is it to be broken so easily...?

    I wish I could tell you it'll be ok...
    But deep down we know it won't.
    Maybe someday you'll learn to...
    Love yourself when others don't.
     
  3. A Life Born Still

    I saw you once,
    in a dream of mine,
    you soared
    throughout space and time-

    ten little toes.
    ten little fingers.
    I stop and breathe
    as your pink baby scent lingers.

    I fought hard to conceive
    with chances taken,
    I knew not of broken promises
    that evening romances
    couldn’t offer-
    but you were born into the light,
    came out without a fight,
    then taken away-
    born still-
    that bleak winter day.

    a life of love built,
    turned into pregnancy guilt-
    I saw you once,
    in a dream of mine-
    but you flew away,
    withered to a wilt.
    I’ve no words to say…

  4. Picture This


    Picture this,
    No death or poverty/
    Only love,
    And prosperity/
    No beefing,
    Over property/
    Just living,
    In peace properly/
    Poor kids smile,
    And find happiness/
    Every kid,
    Enjoying Christmas/
    More buildings,
    With a pot to piss/
    Less children,
    Getting pregnant fast/
    Could paradise,
    Actually last/
    Imagine,
    If this could happen/
    To caption,
    Is satisfaction/
    A faction,
    A cause of action/
    Attraction,
    To cause reaction/
    To reflect,
    Upon our neglect/
    To expect,
    Change and respect/
    Picture this,
    A new world guilt free/
    Picture this,
    No death or poverty/
    Only love,
    And prosperity/
    No beefing,
    Over property/
    Just living,
    In peace properly/

  8. LET ME BE YOUR(◔‿◔)

    You are not a warewolf with the scar
    Living in a town of a Milkybar
    You are not a white wolf all alone
    With a perfect cut portraying your jawbone

    Light pink colour, heart emoticon
    It's alright to wish, for a Unicorn
    Complexity since I'm an Octagon
    In Español, I can call u Don

    No I don't wanna be the Jailey
    I don't wanna be your daily
    But let me be your Joe Alwyn
    Like he is to Taylor Swift.✨
    I don't want love that you call pure
    I don't want it to be some more
    But let me be your Goodbye gift
    Coming back again as your Birthday Gift.✨

    Gentleman beard with light mustache
    You have sweet vibes, no don't talk trash
    Crazy coiffure set on the broad forehead
    You see why I call it the Z alphabet

    Deepness of your crystal eyes
    Matches with dazzling teeth all white
    That Angry face, childlike pout, oh those lies
    I know your name says that you're Right

    No I don't wanna be the Jailey
    I don't wanna be your daily
    But let me be your Joe Alwyn
    Like he is to Taylor Swift.✨
    I don't want love that you call pure
    I don't want it to be some more
    But let me be your Goodbye gift
    Coming back again as your Birthday Gift.✨

    I'll blow your anger with my lips
    Will pick you up from the scattered pins
    Sometimes just a touch and go
    Or sometimes a long besito
    Worry not, I won't stick like a Honey bee
    It may not be we, but It'll always be me
    You'll find your Ace, she'll be your Queen
    But I'll be the sweetness if she will be mean

    No I don't wanna be the Jailey
    I don't wanna be your daily
    But let me be your Joe Alwyn
    Like he is to Taylor Swift.✨
    I don't want love that you call pure
    I don't want it to be some more
    But let me be your Goodbye gift
    Coming back again as your Birthday Gift.✨

    💫 There are people who feel uncomfy sharing their thoughts or feelings. While there are people who hide their feelings because of the heartbreaks in the past. Dilemma, I know. Do you know how animals live? Spontaneously, they'll show love when they want to, they'll be sad when you won't pay attention to them, they show what they feel. Try little by little to live like them, vulnerably. Poetry is about You, the most straightforward feeling I've ever confessed. Ignore it or re-read it, but I truly mean it. 💫

    Ahem...

    I feel the energy
    I sip the Hennessy
    essentially...
    mention me
    just cause I tend to be
    splendindly...
    mentally...
    living my destiny/
    you are no friend to me
    why are you testing me?/
    I’ve got the weaponry
    been to war regularly/
    They from the circus?
    ...clowns actin so desperately/
    ...buggin...
    just go away....
    do not pester me/
    ...Should know your place
    if you choose disrespecting me/
    Love myself first...
    all others
    come in secondly/
    Chill...
    But I’m cold...
    you’ll get
    what you
    expect to see/
    Know I’m a real one...
    keep these
    phonies separately/
    Might have to
    shorten
    all their
    life expectancies/
    If they want beef...
    I’ve got
    the perfect recipe/
    Press on em heavily
    bet they
    call the deputy/
    It’s like I love drama
    I can end the shit
    effortlessly/
    but you start some...
    don’t expect it
    ends pleasantly/
    could do this all day...
    Yes I've
    got the longevity
    Don’t matter if I’m 20... 30... going on 70/
    Revenge is sweet
    I like the taste
    it’s a delicately/
    I enjoy finer things
    That how I’ll put it...
    eloquently/
    Evidently, some people
    steadily view me
    negatively/
    No matter how much good I do
    even if it’s consecutively/
    Please don’t always
    see my moves quite
    as threateningly/
    Unless you definitely
    tryna come at me slightly competitively/
    Then On God...
    I swear
    Im’ma have to do you devilishly/
    I don’t fuck with you bzchs
    like I practice celibacy/
    If I do then you’re going down just
    like confederacy/
    I like handing out L’s
    can tell
    how I do it so generously/
    People send hate at me...
    throwing shade technically/
    but they rhyme pathetically...
    I do this professionally...
    readily...
    excellently...
    exceptionally...
    intelligently...
    I’ll say this prophetically...
    not just hypothetically...
    you’ll be needing help medically...
    if you ever step to me/
    I’m the King
    watch how yo punk ass is
    addressing me/
    pull out the iron
    if you ever try pressing me/
    I’ll fuck your night up
    and I don’t mean that sexually...
    I mean unaffectionately...
    Might run for presidency...
    and revoke ya residency...
    without any hesitancy/
    Then sip my tea...
    pinky up...
    elegantly/
    It’s always the lames
    coming at me...
    inevitably/
    So sick of the jealousy...
    that I’ve seen presently/
    People talking recklessly...
    I’m better than that...
    ....unquestionably/

    Rhythmic Rant #2

    ...and if you ever violate...
    I annihilate ...
    till my eyes dialate...
    from the weed smoke...
    as I choke...
    on my dying date/
    from a concrete jungle
    climate.../
    ran with primates...
    as I spit these rhymes mate...
    you can see what the
    lion ate/
    shave the pin on the trigger
    just to speed up the
    firing rate/
    you in my sights...
    turn every day left in your year
    into
    blind dates/
    Adjusted your pride late...
    you should have been taught
    hate inspires hate/
    till you get your mind straight
    “fúck you”
    is my
    mind’s state/
    worst city in the United States
    grew up during the height of the
    crime rate/
    dying’s my fate/
    I’ll do a lot of things in life
    ...but won’t...
    die fake./
    death’s sickle in
    my face
    as I lie awake...
    in the night late/
    I calmly think bout earning the next dollar
    my way
    just to put some bread
    upon my plate/
    I know it burns my enemies eyes...
    the way I constantly shine...
    I wish they would go out they mind...
    till then...
    Guess I’ll keep tossing more wood in the
    fire place/

  13. Look yet see nothing
    Hear and listen
    All and all continue with no questions
    Agree to that in which you dont quite comprehend
    Even if meanings conduct your own end
    The reality lived is a dream upon the mind
    The brain used to once think now collects dust
    As morals turning begin to rust
    Use not the mind in which you have
    Just to remain in your fantasy land
    Deaf to reality
    Blind with the comfort of comminality
    As to hold that what you know
    To sweep up that in which is misfortune
    To lose the keys upon escaping your world
    That prevents you from ours
    Irritatingly I sit here
    Wondering constantly
    We see yet they dont fully
    Destruction en route as they just hide
    Into their fantasies
    Into their mindless lies

    Never been one to complain,
    But it's heavy on the brain.
    My heart racing like Usain,
    My mind pacing in pain.
    Never been one to complain,
    But I don't feel the same.
    I hear feelings tend to wane,
    But this changes the game.
    Never been one to complain,
    I could do without the blame.
    I can give up the reign,
    Tell me when feelings came.

    I threw my heart away,

    Drift astray...
    I slowly died on that day,
    Burdened with humility,

    Nothing was all,
    This life gave me.
    I fell in too deep,
    I couldn't save me.
    They mistake me,
    And they forsake me.
    Dear Lord take me,
    Don't wake me.
    Let rage shake me,
    Let hate bake me.
    I took a life,
    That wasn't mine.
    I was born good,
    Corrupted over time.
    It's just a flaw,
    In my design.
    I'm puking now,
    I'm far from fine.
    Thought I'd feel,
    Nothing of the sort.

    Twist and contort.

    You gave me.
    I'm sorry have mercy,
    I don't deserve mercy.
    I showed no mercy,
    When I murdered.
    I'm not a murder,
    I'm not a burglar.

  16. The Path To Being A Man Part II

    Look at the flaws you exhibit,
    Face the emotions they elicit.
    There's a petition to prohibit,
    The malignance you solicit.

    We mistook you to be timid,
    When your rancor was rigid.
    With the ideals of a petty kid,
    You cause women to be frigid.

    Incapacitate your toxic method,
    When your illusions are detected.
    Mind so toxic your breath is tepid,
    It's essential to why you're rejected.

    One cannot possibly underline,
    How you manage to undermine.
    Your mindset is purely asinine,
    Now that your heart is Columbine.

    You desperately want to be painite,
    But all you'll ever be is calamine.
    Give up an inadequate life of spite,
    When your true nature is saccharine.

    Your face is serpentine,
    But you act as if you're fine.
    It's time for you to redesign,
    Cause we hear you whine.

    You honestly thought you had,
    An angel resting on your shoulder.
    Your thought was typically bad,
    That angel was a depression boulder.

    Make sure you're happy,
    In reality...
    Not just on the internet,
    Don't fret...
    Fallacious things are said,
    Instead...
    Of the truth of the matter,
    You're sadder...
    Of the fact that others smile,
    Meanwhile...

    On the path to being a man,
    Life is merely at your discretion.
    Heed the words of a wise man,
    Accept your mortal imperfection.
     
  17. I made a poem back in my highschool creative writing days tbh
     
  18. I came into this world with no knowledge of love or heartbreak.

    My parents taught me both before anyone else would of course.

    So, I became cold and put up walls around my heart, because I felt like those walls gave me the protection I did not inherit.

    Then, the world took my best friend from me...

    more than once...

    ...in the cruelest ways possible and those walls cracked.

    So, I fortified those walls so they stood stronger.

    Until one day, when I met someone who needed that protection more than I did.

    I removed those walls.

    I gave my heart to that someone, and they used it to heal themselves before returning it to me...

    ...more broken than it had been before.

    I decided I didn’t want it anymore, and chose not to care about it. So, I let others use it and abuse it anyway they chose, until I became completely numb.

    Each time it was used, it was returned in worse condition.

    It took a while, but eventually, I fixed it. There was residual damage, but at least it worked properly. I decided it was best to simply lock it away where no one could cause it more harm...

    ...not even myself.

    Then you came...

    knocking...

    ...so fucking hard that I couldn’t ignore you... and eventually I found where I had left the key to my heart.

    I gave you that key because I felt like you needed it more than anyone and would treat my heart better than anyone else could...

    ...including myself.

    That key has no copies.
