Gently, I awake to the whistle of the wind. I let out a quick sigh as I lift one eyelid, then immediately close it with neglect for time. For a brief moment, my head is silent, but the next my mind is inundated with emotions and obligations and you. I pull the covers over my head, as if this simple cloak will shield my psyche from unpleasant thoughts. But alas, the unpleasantness cycles on repeat. Anger, frustration, barg...
Living life everything is fine I start to feel some pains I wonder if this is a signHere comes the bloody migraineMy migraines affect my vision I start to see starbursts I can't see the television This is the absolute worstThis is a temporary vision loss Happens to one in two hundred people Squiggly lines and sometimes a cross I feel stressed instead of peacefulThis problem is very rare Doctors have to rule out things Thi...
He sits wide-eyed, staring at an unmarked page Tapping his pen on the table, adrift in thought Confined by his unoriginal ideas. Words fly through his mind like pigeons "It feels too familiar," he whispers reflectively He pauses noticing the silence of his surroundings Putting his pen at the ready, A dot of ink forms a perfect circle on the page He begins to write, A broken home, divorce, suicide, financial defeat All pou...

Dreams - Adrian Gabardo There are no more tears, Just sorrow and regreat. The darker it gets, the shinier the smallest rainbow. The unfulfilled dreams aren't gone, but instead a memory of lost chances, of not taken opportunities. The burning knife cuts are small, they heal in no time, but when all of them sting, the heart suffers in pain. The time killed, slowly kills my life. The days spent sighing, now blow on your face...
Fallen - Adrian Gabardo The skin, loses the flesh The body, loses its soul. I'm floating, Lost in this World, I'm drowning, Feeling all alone. Take my hand, tell me where to go. Raise me to heavens, lead me to my home. I've fallen too low, it cannot be true. I live among the lost souls, I need to go home. The fire melts the flesh of my bones. Release me of my sins, Wash the pain away. Treat me like your son, beg me to sta...
Schism - Adrian Gabardo I typed a few words today, it was all just a mumble, just sentences of non-sense and no significance. The only way for my brain to work, is for me to hit rock bottom I guess, or else it will be just a bunch of stressful attempts at nothing, at writing something face and soulless. Pain and suffering help my own self remain, the sadness restrains my soul to this body, it keeps my mind looking for an...
Sleepy, I wake up.6 AM, my clock tells me.But I don't need it to say the time anymore,I know it already,as everyday, it's the same thing.It's the same old song,every day.It's the same old poem,being told, again and again.It's the same words coming from my mouth,until my tongue is dry,until there is no more sound.Every day,I ask myself, why?Is this even living?Or am I just alive?Surfing on the waves of shit being thrown at...
The wine bottle dries, the drops leave its recipient one by one. The content that once stained all matter, now slowly and silently fade away. The once sweet and delightful taste, has turned into a sour, bitter and worthless, leftover in which the desperate soul feeds upon. But such as everything in life, the time has taken away the joy of being, the experience has replaced the happy discovery, and the knowledge swapped be...
The tears flow,I wish I could sleep, to drift down into unfeeling nothingness To cut myself off from this hollow emptiness But the tears flow and my thoughts SwirlPlaying out every twisted scenario of How I fucked it upHow I could have done it differently Of how much of a goddamn idiot I amStunted in emotions Stunted in heart Dead in the head Unable to express what it is that you truly meanTo meUnable to admit, for fear o...
At times like this When the night time is long And the day time is short, You showed up. Whenever I look up I see you. You are in my east side Shining so bright. Colorful, Blue and green hue Blinking, hypnotizing me. They called you Venus, Godess of beauty. They are not mistaken. You are a beautiful thing to look upon. Some nights I can't find you. Other nights you are a show off. Like tonight. Sometimes I wish I c...
