Eric Markisen

Feel the warm cry
between the night and the cold sky
beneath a fire
she grows through time
...

he spent the rest of his days drifting futher and further away from everyone
everything
no one knows why
only assuming he was unhappy
...

hey,
look at me
i can finally see
that look in your eye
...

grip the rail
and kill the beast
the vision slowly fades away
she swims across the open seas
...

I am,
That birthday song that restaurants sing.
That school bus the stops to pick up kids when you’re stuck behind it.
That dinging noise that you hear randomly during the day.
...

you climb
with only your mind
to the tip of the mountain
where creativity dwells
...

clenched fists with intentions to kill
nothing can stop the feeling
bludgeoning to death
his victims yell
...

i live in the dark so i dont have to see you anymore
i cause myself pain so i dont have to feel you anymore
no matter how much i long to see your face
i know i cannot leave this place
...

tick, tock, tick, tock
the clock plays its song
inside my mind
and in the air
...

his life has feeling
whether having a purpose or not
still hurts
still feels
...

when nature cries your name
you'll see the rain
as it falls in patterns
of beauty and grace
...

...

hey look
a change
a feeling
thats unexplained
...

i finally found a way
to make it all ok
to make it all worth it
to kill the part of me
...

a burn
a stain on the skin
a red
pulsing
...

oh sweet sweet.....
i'll use you to drown out the screams
the cries of reality
and her
...

complete euphoria
her eyes
to which i gaze
to which i believe the cause
...

i come to you today
bearing the gifts of love and hate
they refuse the separate
and i live in these worlds
...

so poetic
so divine in her ways
please paint me the way
my path is no longer
...

no longer in my place of content
i wish i was there again
to fly upon the clouded sky
ive comedown
...
