So, I haven't written an actual post in this thing in a while and I was feeling it right now. Life has been awesome. I've been working at Taphouse for a year, making killer money. I have a Mercedes which should run by the end of this month if I keep saving right Lol I'm still single and alone ... starting to wonder if that'll ever change. I suck at ( Read more... )

SONNET 8

As the tension flees each time I exhale
A thick cloud fills the air that surrounds me
It vanishes in seconds with no trail
But leaves me in a fit of ecstasy

The endless relaxation suits me well
As the sweet kava drains from head to toe
Flowing swirls entrance me in their spell
I feel a little more free with each blow

You can taste the difference ( Read more... )

SONNET 7

I feel like my days are drifting away
This black hole phenomenon runs its course
I feel like my pain is causing decay
I've been pitted and replaced with remorse.

Worry and pressure eat away my soul
I've always thought I was moving forward
But in time passed, I lost sight of my goal
Now I have nothing left to move toward.

Impatience and lies have ( Read more... )

SONNET 6

Another long and dreadful day has passed.
I wake to layers of fresh morning dew.
My tears seemed to stream to the ground and last
long enough to be evidence for you.

I wonder if you remember my face, 
Where you are - a half a world away. 
I'll never forget your name or your place
For you're a part of me in every way.

You belong to my heart, my mind ( Read more... )

SONNET 5

Is it time to let our youth make their way?
You say stay; We want to, we need to go.
It's time. It's time to find what we should know, 
But you've buried our roots far from the day.
Where within the wind we dare dream to play.
Where the light that shines spares the strength to grow. 
Where the time is ours and ours alone.
Our young hearts beat for ( Read more... )

SONNET 4

A break, a touch, a push, a shove
So brittle kept, so little felt
I feel like I can't get enough 
The cards are playing as they're dealt

Hypocrisy is calling me 
In its sharp and critical tone
You know that I want to be free
I know that I am all alone

I try so hard to keep my smile
As days come in and time runs out
I know that I'll be here a while

Lost Luster: Friendship

They'll start as an acquaintance
A friendship's on its way
I know where this is going
Our blood remains fond of the artery

My very own confidant
At least for the time being
Their ideas take me by the hand
And escort me through their lives

The variety is breath taking
Their anomaly is pure
But eye, like windows, 
Leave the soul bare

They' ( Read more... )

SONNET 3

I have a story so easy to tell
My whole life on paper for you to read
A young girl so broken, she'd never sell
She's ready to follow and quick to lead

I am Alexis and I like to write
Goals set so high, I'll get where I'm going
Grew up in debt, but got through it alright
There's plenty to learn, but I'm still growing

I eat calamushi down by the ( Read more... )

SONNET 2

Those words were so much better off
Without your name pressed to their side.
A quick slip through your bitter cough
Reveals the love you live to hide.

You swore the truth, you took an oath - 
Taken so well and without guilt.
A life was stolen from us both - 
Your friendship lost when blood was spilt.

With each sunset comes the same lie
You sketched ( Read more... )

THIN ICE

We'll be like the North Star in the night
Full of life and burning so bright
Our passion races through the milky skies
A connection only felt when I look into your eyes
You've cleansed the windows to my soul
As the words your mind writes remain untold
The seduction of your secrets makes me want to know more
Your actions are so shameless, they ( Read more... )
