hot. hot wax. burns it all away.
i barely even flinch anymore.
it's all new. White. Pink.
a cooling touch of Green.
each stroke of Brown. an angry claw.
we dream of change forever.

bitter message
Ares smiles at his so-called success.
"I am the god of war!"
He would always exclaim
So the adage;
The fall after a pride is true after all.
At the crossroad I stand,
Uncertain of the path to take this time around.
Man for chill.
After all I only live once.
I took to abusing drugs.
I am afraid
You don’t know it from the outside
I am afraid
Yet 16 years of challenge taught me to bury my emotions
I am afraid
Sheltered with only a few windows
Those in which are covered with plastic
Nothing comes in, nothing goes out
Except for those bright rays of sunshine in which you sit to feel warm
