It always ends this way yknow. Trying to go to sleep but I'm not able to. I say to myself all throughout the day that I'm gonna read or do something to make myself sleep earlier but I never do.

As far as I can remember family gatherings have consisted of speech regarding illegal aliens and the economy. I can not remember a time when my family was not concerned with such things.
Face to face, body to body, that's how I wish I could look at you.
The articles describe some sort of traumatic scar.
The pyschologists diagonse an empty hole in the center of us.
Imagine a world wherein no one had philosophy.
Imagine this world as a bigger world
with more people who were mirror images of their neighbors.
Imagine these images every day
were shattered upon rocks
PunchPunchPunch the house
It's so messed upI want out
Light it up, I cannot bearMy sister crying as people stare
What will it take?I do no know.
I dare not ask,indifference my foe
I wonder if you know that I love you
With all of my broken, twisted love,
With all of the love you threw back at me,
And all the indifference you used to drown me.
I fight the love you give me;
Dusky days waiting for moonlight;
White flowers lost in teardrops of a bleeding heart;
Ladders crumbling to dust;
Hidden inscriptions of shadows;
Fragile pieces of sky,
Stuck in strands of cobwebs;
Love
Unconditional, unstoppable
Truthfully, passionately, wholeheartedly
Yearning, destiny, coincidence, pain
Leaving, forgetting, replacing
Wounding are the words
Malice their intent
Damage lays strewn
Glass shards, small and large
Carve, Cut and Cauterize
Blood dries and wounds are ignored
Selfies? Those arent me
my words represent the truest version of myself
without filters I have never sounded more like myself
people go years without finding their voice
well, I have found mines and made it known
Children not sure where they are going to sleep
Starving; so hungry not sure when they are going to eat
Crying on the inside because crying on the outside would be weak
They look and they judge, no one tries to help
At my school I am surrounded by wealth
The girls are so beautiful, great outfits, great health
Their lives seem so easy and effortless, never a thing to bring them down
our teeth chatter more than our tongues
but silence isn’t the enemy
it cradles me like a newborn who’s not afraid to scream for what she wants
for what she needs
Sometimes I care so much it hurts
So I hide behind indifference for anesthesia
I'm running from my inner demons
It’s easier to use my sins as temporary amnesia
I wear my Scarlett letter like a mask
Behind the iron curtain
Silence extends untamed
And occasionally I mingle but
It matters not who knows my name.
Darkness decends
As the blocks of color shift
Displaying my change of emotion
Don’t all people hide behind curtains?Ones that appear physical, invisible,Some even palpable.
Recession love poem
Do you know that love that’s less unrequited and more dearly departed
How every vague memory comes at you like a moving target
The human race is full of malcontent, bigotry, ignorance, and destruction,
But the majority of you, so happy giddy people on social media,
only fill your news feeds with funny memes and meaningless statuses.
People walk to work like they are alonethe youth shrug their shoulders, take a drag, and it passessleep in a city of millions, never knowing anyone.outside, every thing you hear you have already heard,
As you stare out the window
of your quickly moving train car,
the landscape, blurred, is ashen and bare,
and the pitter-patter of rain on the thin metal roof
never stops.
How am I?How am I?I'm fine
I'm fighting back rageAt a broken down system
I'm crying in painFor accepted ignorance
I'm screaming bloodFor everyday injustice
I walk these ghetto streets to and fro
People have come but most of them go
Looking around for a ray of sunlight
Darkness follows me without the moonlight
I have been on this decrepit road forever
Indifference blinds my generation with ignorance, it’s a lack of concern, of attention and lack of interest, for other people, for life, and for God in every sense.
knowing when to run , knowing when to fly
Knowing when to look back, knowing when to question why
knowing when to run , knowing when to fly
knowing when to live, and knowing how to survive
Cliques are just a form of people who have heartless thoughts , & feelings that you can't bare to think of with their evil stares demon like thoughts surround me every day, the way they move like a pack of cheetahs looking for their prey to fe
Take out the timing that sets all your watches Spin all the gears like flat metal globes You’re a god of the nothing, a seal on the void That practiced its humming before it ran dry
ignorant they are
higher they get faster they drop
blowing a blunt behind the yard
soon i hop they hit the grave
government strives to get them up
ignorant am not
straight A's all year
I see through you like clear water
Like an absent man's daughter
Positive on the outer
But deep inside you are a doubter
