Your name is like fire Your burdens are mine You kill my desire And you steal all my time I cannot have you without all the hate The hate that has brought me to this time and place You promise an end to those days that I cry Yet, you leave me with questions and wondering why Do you remember the...

Falling into a blackened hole Loosing all self-control Wasted tears on dead memories Short of breath on bloody knees Watch the sun crumble down Dying slow without a sound Into pieces is how I break Salvation now is much too late I will not cry again No more tears to keep drowning in Far away...

By the window Staring off into the darkness Evil voices Trying to feed on the heartless Bad intentions They creep thru me like worms As my spirit Begins to wither as it burns Silent gestures From shadows unknown to me Call me nearer Is this a dream or reality? My mind is racing Should I leave...

Reflections in the mirror Something hiding behind my eyes I feel a little shiver Soon as I realize The blackened air around me Suffocates my dying lungs I know I?m standing still But my legs they seem to run Why must I shed these tears? Though I smile for the show Why must I hide these tears...

Only you Can chase away my fears Hopeless thoughts Seem to disappear And in your eyes There is no solitude Just the sunlight That brightens up my mood By your hands My soul can finally breathe And just like that I find myself at ease Silent teardrops Wash away the stains This broken heart For...

...Real?.....or not?

I?m afraid To close my eyes Afraid of the falling sensation I?m afraid To think of you Afraid of my imagination Cuz I get the feeling Like there?s something in the air But who can feel feelings That are never truly there? Tell me, sweet baby, crying in the dark You?re looking for the answers...

In my room Entertaining wicked thoughts Falling deeper Into reflections of myself A child I was A child I am still Open wounds never heal When the cause of pain remains So tired of being here Alone, afraid, calm My mind races Only to hit a mental wall The sky crashes down on me Smothered again...

Escuchame Diosito Estas palabras vienen del Corazon Cuando yo estabe muerto Tu me diste la razon Me diste vida en esos ojitos Me diste mas que amor con sus carinitos Con una risa que calma este fuego Me hago pedacitos solo con un dedo No puedo creer que es todo para mi Y que halgo tan precioso...

J. Ruiz Burdens on my soul A wounded animal Tears that flood my eyes Laughter in the darkness, lies Across my thoughts Every fucking mistake Crying desperately Feeling out of place Every moment spent right here Another fucking reason to disappear Figures in my mind Dancing to my sorrow Paying...

This piece is dedicated to Berta Ruiz who passed away March 17, 2010 of cancer and is written for Lupe Ruiz, her husband, my uncle.. In her last days she suffered a lot, but she remained strong. She passed away while holding on to my uncle. He felt her give up, or as I like to think, accept...

Shadows creeping in my room Lonely tear drops begin to bloom Swallowed into the sinner?s pit My begs for mercy turn to shit Catch the moonlight and drift away Cross the walls where the Angels play All my burdens in perfect view I never meant to smother you Holding on to the hands of time Every...

........just heard this yesterday (lol) "Why did the blonde wear condoms on her ears?"..................................... ..........Because she didn't want to get hearing aids!..................

Alright. I know that when we are in a relationship with people , whether it be friendships or love, sometimes we see sides of them that raise a lil voice in our heads that say "Whoa"......Sometimes you joke around with that person and say thinkgs like "you're crazy" or "whats wrong with you, you...

I never told you what drove me to this It all started with the signs that I missed There was no love where it once flourished Just dying pedals from a rose malnourished Scars that tore away at the heart Never getting a chance to heal just pulling further apart Go ahead, blame it on me But you...

back in college, i took a Psychology class where we once brought up the topic of dreams and why we need them...of course so we can filter our minds n shit like that.....Im not one to take dreams liteally or take thier interpretations the same, but i do believe they are important. My point is...

Where is the ARCADE?!....i just started getting good at Pac-Man haha

Let me bathe in your sunlight I wanna steal from your sweet life I wanna wash away your footprints in my heart Make me feel like a human Help me feel like I’m real I wanna understand the pain that just won’t heal Every tear that burns my face And every weep that fills this place It’s just a...
