Some times way past bed time I find My self failing to sleep ,,my heart is so agitated, pain and agony drowns my soul,,, I try to read ,Go to the gym,not even the beer or brandy tots helps me any better,,I heard them say drink your fill of wine to drown your sorrows,, when the pain cuts you deep,,You stare at the mirror all u see is hurt ,,not any doctor or shrink can take the pain away the ,,the brain is deeply engraved in the tablet of my heart ,,I smile but what am feeling,, John legend says "all of me "I have proved that man that could be fatal ,,rather love with your Brain than the heart is ful of emotions, very tender think it rude to call it weak

I had survived the first. That was then; this is now. The blindfold of so many pills slowly died away and first though my finger then my head, a passion, a hurt and a need filled me as every moment was consumed with words; every breath with wisps of ink. But they were not all captured and somewhere in the deep abyss of living, lies the unspoken, almost unfelt feelings of decades in months. This is the half-empty account off all those nights from December through into the new year and the end of March. ...I pains me to share it. But it also makes it just not my problem anymore and that is something I long for- freedom and peace. Please note that all grammatical and linguistic, as well as those in punctuation and spelling or placing of words were intentional. If you LIKE this and want me to write a commentary on each poem and picture (as in my previous collection Apfel), please show me in comments and votes :) PLEASE DO NOT COPY any of the poetry or pictures.
