Tears

Deep in his bones
Down to his soul
In the mind of a religious sinner
She screams
He can see her
But he can't hear

He knows she's in trouble
He can't do much
He wants to be strong
He holds it back
Nothing comes out
she cries

His mind calls him weak
His heart makes him stronger
His eyes are dry
Red
Glassy
Disoriented

Hydrating 
He drinks blue juice
A wild pack of family dogs
Living in his yard
He feeds them spiders
He feeds them snakes

Lizards
Birds
Rats
Cockroaches
Filthy dogs
Filthy animals

He can't cry
He rips the paper in half
His tears can't fall
His heart won't let them
Abundantly, his soul cries for help
Full of tears

Blood

Inside the mans heart
A young girl
Innocent
Sweet
Happy 
Genorous 

She never grows old
She never gets tired
She never complains
Never rebels
She's quiet
And truthfully.. quite shy

She always listens
She always hears
She knows what's wrong
And what's right
But she never tells him
She never bothers

She loves him
So she let's him be
She never hates
She never hurts
She is infinite
She is nothing

He's known her since birth
And he loves her to death
He treats her nice
And fulfills her needs
Food, water
Shelter

One day he forgot
She slipped
And fell
Blood 
Blood on his hands
Blood on his soul

Sweat

Drops of blood
fall from his knuckle
Dehydrated
Wet
He breathes heavily
Confused

the man is in his office
Busting his balls
He's gotta eat the shit they feed him
Not because he wants to
Cause that's all he's got
Or else he'd starve to death

Drip
Drip 
Drip
He can hear the drops fall
Air conditioning makes him cold
Heat makes him angry

He works hard to forget
To forget the bullshit
For hopefully one day
He can live comfortably
Without having to work
To finally catch a break

He can't feel the pain
His blood is rushing
101 degrees
His water is boiling
The very thing that makes him angry
Takes his anger away

Dripping wet
Sweat
It pours down his face and arms
His shirt is soaked
He's angry that his own anger
Makes him happy

Wetfish

Bad fish 
Good fish 
Black fish
Blue fish
Catfish
Batfish

Fish in the sea
Fish in the river
Fish in the pond
Fish in TV
fish in a tank
Fish, do you see?

Algae
Plants
Systems
And structures
Sharks swim above us
Fishers and hunters

Water for the fry
Water for the burger
Water in my sleeve
Water on my boogers
Reading and writing
Expanding the borders

You see
We're the same
Swimming swimming
Just keep swimming
Follow a route
Do'er and dont'er

Wetfish come
Wetfish go
Wetfish come
And Wetfish go
I'm a wet fish
You're a Wetfish

Summer

Tilted
The gentlemen fixes the frame
Tall doors
Small windows
Giggling children
She rushes in

A loud stare
He smiles
Awkward
A cheesy scent
Buzzing
He turns

Nothing's wrong
That's what's wrong
Overwhelming comfort
Satin in a coffin
He's aware
He knows

Apologies
Mourns
Grunts
Chuckles 
shouting
Nothing

Cactus

Even under extreme heat
I keep my cool
Dry on the outside
Cold on the inside
Rain comes
I gather what I need

Strangers come to me
Thirsty
They drink my essence
I keep my cool
Sharing is caring
I'm no fool

They take
I give 
I accept gods blessings
I take what I need
You don't know me
I can't leave

Stuck where I stand
Comfortable
The land is beautiful
I can only look
I'll wave my hands
Maybe they'll see me

A rough exterior
Not many visitors
Your touch is soft
But I can only hurt you
No strings attached
Carry my love to your home

Dry on the outside
Made almost entirely of water
No friends around me
No shoulder to cry on
It's too damn hot outside
My eyes dry the tears..

Drowning

Overwhelmed
Breathe in
Breathe out
Let it sink in
Fill your lungs 
Too much

Work
Home
Car
Eat 
Sleep
Die

Fed up
My stomach is full
About to vomit
My mind wanders
Trying to ignore
The insanity can't hold back for long

Each day a fight
A battle
To finish
start the next
If this is life
I can't wait to die

Confide you die
No friends
Even if I had them
I'd have nothing to talk about
Sleep for days
Sleep for ages

Can't say for sure
Anger
Frustration
Responsibility 
Don't Worry
I'll drown them
