Each Tune of The Way

Each Tune of The Way
-Water Runs Dry



Do you want
To be a dreamer?
-and sleep
Do you want
To be a doctor?
-and heal
Or go to heaven…
…and touch gods face.
Whatever-
.
.
.
My heart melts onto
The platter of junk metal.
Hands cringe and
Flee in fright behind
The palm of comfort.
I move the couch
To a certain angle
Where the sun only
Takes a glimpse peek
Into the life of my soul.
My mouth rants off
To the withered wilder,
With words crushed
Under the fingers of
A beautiful melody.
.
.
.

Should I be the one,
To scrub the bottom
Of the broken plate…
… that is hidden under,
The vomit of others mistakes?
-that’s just great
They say you plus me…
…equals better math
It sounds so beautiful
But does it mean the same?

.
.
.
I sit in the path of others
But they don’t mind…
…they love most
Of the shit I have to say
-Or play…
My eyes wink to the
People in the front row.
My vocals swing left
To right in a rhythm
But carefully loose
So no spasms shall occur
-I promise...
My mouth keeps moving
With the pace of my words
Sputtering out of the cottoned
Mouth, drunk, split lipped,
Missing tooth tunnel of
Loose meanings.
-did I say that right?
Ahh…
never mind.
My jaw begins to tighten,
Nails beginning to bleed
For mercy from my
Pugilistic misdemeanor
Between me and you.
I step so vigorously
On the petals of sound
Adjusting each and every
Tweak of tune played
With anger.

I
Am
An
Artist
Of
Truth
Hear
Me
Play
My
Pain
With
No
Hope
For
You

Titanium emotions
Lock themselves in fear
Behind my diaphragm bars.
The noose atop of the mahogany
Slips with each PRESS PLAY
Action I make with my mind
Bogged and eyes wearied
And starting to dry.
My arms begin to quiver
And the room gets quite.
Nothing more than a echo
Of my heart beating
Away each silent note
That comes to close to my ears.
I am nothing more than a figure
Of speech…
… a lost cause with
Just a tune in my head.
Playing away my emotions
To soften my heart but
Also causing anguish
To the beat that
Comes after,
I can’t keep the noise
Down; no matter what I do
The tune squeaks and slithers
Its adversity towards
My throat that gasps for air.
It kills me slowly…
So I turn away from the
piano and let it go..
… the tune I mean.
I slouch and fall into
The darkness of the night.
I sip slowly the wine,
The same wine we drank that night.
Ahh…I miss you.
If only you could see
How things are now.
There so different without
You right next to me…
But all that’s gone.
I just have to play
The last song you ever played,
Before they came in
And took you away from me.

“Why did you leave”
Is what I ask myself
Every night hoping the answer
Would change
.
.
But it won’t…
… your in a better place.

“I miss you baby”

Piece was tight man, areal great story and a nice message behind it,
The opening first lines were great, they really set the piece off and delivered a brilliant message to the reader.
Your imagery in this piece was outstanding, very original ideas and concepts you displayed here. I was able to picture images in my head because your description and vocab was so vivid and distinctive. Every piece of poetry I've read from you is so personal brother, you just write with pure love and buckets of emotion. Your at the top of your game at the moment...
The quote you ended with was perfect, a fantastic was to finish an outstanding piece.

woot homie thanks ill RTF

I absolutely loved this piece, it was extremely long, but i never lost inteerest what so ever... the story line was a story that' been told in so many different ways a million times, but you really made this your own, and took a beautiful unique slant to it... The structure of the piece really made it an easy to read smooth off the tongue kind of piece which i always appreciate from writers, as sometimes you'll have a great piece, but because of the structure you just have no hope in hell of actually just reading line by line rather than having to switch backto see what they meant, so in terms of structural side you were completely on point for me... The imagery was just off the wall man, like it just brought the piece alive and allowed it to speak for itself... and then followed by the beautiful wording and pretty much perfect emotion to go along side that, the piece just spoke to me man, really reached me with what you were trying to sa here... we should seriously collab, i'll be looking out for more of your piees on this site... very well done!

Feed this if you woud be so kind

[Soul Slayer]

This was a lovely read IMO.. It shows that you took some time writing it. It could have been easy to come off as cliche but i think the way you portrayed this was real original the storyline had a nice concept to it and the imagery was kept vivid through out the entire read. You set the proper tune for this sort of poem from the onset and stuck to it. It might have been long but it was phenomenal. I liked some of the metaphors you used in this poem mayne.

Titanium emotions
Lock themselves in fear
Behind my diaphragm bars.

That was just one my favorite lines. This is worthy of a NOM so i'll get to the jig of thangz.
