I told the moon 

my secrets

as the world

watched and did

the same

Your words
no longer carry meaning
none of them
hold the significance of truth…

The Left Shoulder…

the fool
that sits on your shoulder
is no longer
a voice of reasoning
his darkest thoughts
harbor the worst intentions
for the remembrance
of your life’s legacy
he’s spotted your strength
through actions
that the human eye see’s as weakness
and has pin pointed
the perfected time of kicking
you while you’re down

Your Truth Lays Bare At the Alter…

there were illustrations of dreams

images of wanderers looking for a lost art,

alone at a dance waiting 

for someone to create hand in hand memories 

in that moment of significance


as I took aim through images

of shattered glass reminding me of my youth,

a young boy spooked by silhouettes of his father

from behind his broaden shoulders,

he never knew the feeling of a world baring down on him

he never knew how to hold steady under pressure

while a household going afloat depended on him


staring down a path altered

by mistakes

having thoughts about a past

i couldn’t remember


things that i remember 

i still want to forget them though i can’t


no longer can i hide behind

this veil of sanity

there is turmoil here


I came prepared

using my mouth as a gun

and my tongue as a trigger and

with words i become trigger happy

shooting you with truth at point blank range


as rationalized faults

come gushing out of broken windows

the soul is revealed,

your truth is laid bare and those memories

that haunt me every so often

cross over to the other side 

becoming peaceful moments in an

unforgotten eternity

Separation

Him? He wears a mask

during the day only showing his

true face at night, the darkness

knows him by familiar, the light

knows him by the son of no one

as women perform the rotation

of things recycled


Her? She wears her feelings on her sleeve

in tattooed form, no stories are being told,

she just likes the attention it brings because

she’s misguided and needs someone to follow


Him? He sleeps past seven when he promises

to wake at sunrise putting all his feelings

through text, he’s no coward, but no one listens

when he uses the art of verbal conversation

so he continues to use what works for him


Her? She’s a vision of beauty although

she thinks no one see’s the appearance that she see’s

as she wipes away the steam created upon bathroom mirrors

she continuously hopes the world see’s her right side up

and desires her mind more than her cave


He never says I love you

and wonders why love continues to pass him by


She stays where she’s wanted but not where she wants 

to be, old things become distant and new things become familiar

she stays for the feeling of familiar as she dies for the feeling of love

They both have learned to be liars and truthful at the same time.

Get Out Of My Hair-Bilal (by AlexisFather)

12PM

Do Away With Your Broken Grin…

she entered

my home with this

broken grin

i didn’t recognize her

even though a kind

act was committed

it went unnoticed

not at all because

anything has changed,

just because there is a sign

that says welcome

right outside my door

and there was no reason

to enter without a smile,

so from now on

if you dare attempt to enter

with a broken grin

the sarcasm behind 

your gestured mask will

no longer be welcomed

on the other side.

YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT US,

(I THINK)

YOU HAVE NOT LEARNED TO BE WITHOUT

THE TOUCH THAT REDEFINED YOUR FEELING OF LOVE,

AND ARE A LITTLE AFRAID OF BEING ALONE,

TIRED OF A LOVE THAT WON’T/CAN’T LAST,

SO NOW…NO LOVE LEAKS FROM WITHIN,

YOU ARE DRY.

SO AM I.

THE DAYS SEEM UNFILLED

WITHOUT YOUR PRESENCE.

AND FOR THAT I WILL REMAIN

OUTSIDE THE BOUNDARIES OF MY

OWN STATE OF MIND.

Listening When Wisdom Speaks…

the air is cool

broken hearts make

it feel frigid

somehow there is still

life here more than ever

there is nothing to run a way to

if there was, someone would’ve

found it by now

someone would’ve told

the heart there is refuge

and if i only knew what

being alone during the Summer meant

swollen tongues off words

not used 

like, I love you…

like, I miss you…

coming to a fork in the road

I’ve learned to sit there

being still trying to listen

to those voices that speak to you

between a bird’s chirp

and a gust of wind

yes, silence is when wisdom

speaks the loudest
