Skin and Bone by ThePhaseState, literature

Literature

Skin and Bone

I lie down on my bed and stare at the ceiling With feelings tearing me apart Like hasty hands on ancient paper Til all that's left is a disembodied heart In a cloud of crimson vapor But still, it beats Still it searches for the rhythm of peace Still it anticipates release Even after the purpose has passed Still it endlessly repeats Each beat so loud that it equates the background sounds to silence Each successive pulse more heightened and violent Until shock waves form and past happiness starts to fracture The lights dim and the background becomes blacker It's a matter of all the factors combined The blackbirds sing a favorite tune of mi

Strain of Thought by ThePhaseState, literature

Literature

Strain of Thought

My nights have been identical all week laying in bed, eyes shut, but I don't sleep I try until the sheep reach a count that I can't keep I just keep pouring over these thoughts going through my mind but there isn't enough time in the day or night to fully consider whether I've ever really felt alright but it's all okay I set myself apart from the rest of the world and try to think of something clever to say in the hopes that someone somewhere will take notice but even if they don't I still know this expression compressed in the words that I spill alleviates the stress caused by these bills that I struggle to pay cause I don't have the funds a

Reflet D'etre by ThePhaseState, literature

Literature

Reflet D'etre

the future may be bright but the past is bruise whose existence i acknowledge but depth of meaning i refuse i can't believe the person i used to be so immersed in the diversions of a material society i could use some direction because my compass is broken and all i see is the reflection of the words left, yet to be spoken and i try to see past to the other side but what's behind seems so much darker and i have to strain my eyes to even catch a glimpse of what i might be missing i've gotta clear my mind and stop myself from reminiscing cause with every breath i take i find that life is a trip now i'm hanging by a thread

Pet Bird by ThePhaseState, literature

Literature

Pet Bird

i could cut myself off from the rest of the world until i felt so alone that i bought a pet bird to keep me company in day time and watch over me at night to confess my darkest troubles to and fill the emptiness of life don't worry about it i'm a pilot, i'm trained if it comes down to it, i'll crash land this plane i could leave it all behind and live my life in the forest i like the forest because the forest is free i don't want to fake it or ever have to try the realization of feeling is to be desensitized don't worry about it i'm a pilot, i'm trained if it comes down to it, i'll crash land this plane i could spend

Social Species by ThePhaseState, literature

Literature

Social Species

all the places i have gone everybody, everyone has something against somebody for something they haven't done all the places we could go i've become infatuated with the beauty of your soul we're all alike, we're all so different it's hard to hold your own we're a very social species that doesn't want to be alone all the places i have gone everybody, save for one has something against somebody for something they haven't done nothing is the way it should be but has it ever been when everything you thought was real was only just pretend we're all alike, we're all so different it's hard to hold your own we're a very social

Defacing Disguise by ThePhaseState, literature

Literature

Defacing Disguise

i know all your secrets and you know all mine you said "it's going to happen sooner or later, and now is a good time" i need some contrast any kind will do i wouldn't be in this position had it not been for you like an average man daring to hypothesize afraid of failing yet finding reason to try like parchment unrolling, crystallized afraid of crumbling, defacing disguise without trying, you make me hurt i've no one but myself to blame i try so hard to make you see that we're the same all the things you do make me wonder is this really what it seems or is it just your spell that i am under like an average man daring to

Literature

Timepiece 20

let's pack our bags and run away to foreign lands all that matters is we're together, and i finally understand that the world is a clock and we're falling off the hands life is an airport, every flight just got delayed emotion is a paycheck, all we wanted was a raise peace of mind is like tug of war, and a better question is "who," rather than what are we fighting for i see with the intensity of a microscope and try to think of rhymes that are dope sometimes they're unstable like an isotope and i keep it that way like water in the ocean never calm it down with a lack of emotion the tide moves in and the tide moves out we're part of a cycle

People Will Never Be Happy by c-hoody, literature

Literature

People Will Never Be Happy

We think like a jigsaw puzzle, unfinished and questioning-- Hope is the reflection, to aspiration and dream. Love are the pieces, steady, hesitating For Greed is the hand, from which it places. Ability to configure without consolidation, Forever hungry, starving famished! is the Greed. Always misplacing pieces, carelessly. Somewhere along the line we, the people, took a gamble. Broke our puzzle to pieces. Left us in the shambles. I guess we sort'a figured... Love would handle. In exchange for brokenness, we gain control. We call it knowledge, groundbreaking; high snow. Nature, has never Seen this before!

My Bio

Hmm. I'm 18 years old, my main hobby is making music. I play guitar, write lyrics, and sing. I don't claim to be great at any of it but it's something I really enjoy. Music is an amazing form of expression and I feel after about seven years of experimenting I'm just beginning to discover how therapeutic its creation can be. I'm happy right now. Things aren't perfect by any means but if they were then there wouldn't be anything to work towards. I've got the best friends I could ever imagine having. I'm enjoying this time in my life for all it's worth because I know it isn't going to last forever. Other than music, I've done some photoshop projects for computer graphic classes the last couple years of high school and I enjoyed a sculpture class I took this past year quite a bit. Aside from art, I'm very interested in psychology, specifically altered states of consciousness, lucid dreams, and out of body experiences. Influence of this usually finds its way into just about everything i write.
