The first thing I remember loving was my cat-
My first best friend.
And my baby brother,
And dinosaurs.
-
I loved my stuffed animals,
And worms on the sidewalk.
I loved the people in movies,
Dear Creation,
I am at a crossroads with myself
a sinner with high standards
believing that someday I’ll find happiness
with someone
It all began when Sam was small,
His mom was left dead by the worst demon of all.
Sam was in college when his dad disappeared,
His brother, Dean showed up without a single tear.
I'm reminiscent on my memories day dreaming on the usualA cycle in my mind, what goes around come around I figureAtypical to the eb and flow of society Drunk off emotions stumbling towards sobrietyNevertheless
Meet me at the crossroads
when the moon is good and high
bring me some of that moonshine
we gon' make a deal tonight
Devil's in the details
watch that dust kick up and swirl
such a shame
At a crossroads we stand,
Our heels in the sand,
A decision weighs heavily,
On our soon-reborn band.
Ditch the ground rules,
A bounty of no regrets;
Desires fulfilled against the ethics,
Weaving the art of manipulation.
Mind games to consider realism
As a slash to the crossroads.
corners combined,
edges bleeding
together,
like a puzzle
pieces fit
together;
Jigsawed sides
Slash lines
In each other’s
Faces.

I’m looking
I’m looking
I’m looking
At the crossroads darkness fell
Benighted from the shades arose terror.
Water bled obsydian, black
From shadows opened the mouth of hell.
Despair, hatred, grief and their reek,
I'm standing at a crossroads, not sure which route to take. Should i take the right road, of which so few chose. Or should i take the other, and live a life I cannot make.
*Down a dusty road he walked, his feet were always bare.
No one passing with him talked, not a soul did care.
None could fathom what he sought, or even wonder why.
