Heart out. No Doubt.

the Creative Director — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 10:27:55 +0000

Constantly is my formulated thought tossed over a discussion like bread and butter
Creating a dislodged emotion, commotion, this feeling I thought my heart had discontinued
Where despite myself I find myself constantly desiring you
Your touch, your voice, your acceptance of my emotion like the motion of the stars
Timeless
Your beauty is…best by far
But you, the thoughts and emotion that makes me want you despite what I know about you
That’s what satisfies the deepest craving of a heart untoward
So please I hope in the last few weeks I haven’t been to forward
I look in the mirror, my brown eyes deep, and see my feelings
And it scares me.

It scares me and dares me and I leap into concrete and I bleed
Bloody knees and bloody teeth, is this effort beyond me
Is this what I want to be, so far gone that I would, for her, bleed to make her see
I can’t believe yet I see the future dark and her shining through for me, for me
For me I can’t dissolve it, solve it, it’s a damn mystery
She’s a mystery, she tells me herself and yet she is shrouded so mysteriously
Weary and wanting to give up, I do
Only to find my self once again enticed by you
Its not your fault, I can’t deny what I want
But I do ask, I ask over and over again
I want a woman, a strong woman, but are you the right one to put all this effortless effort in

I believe so, but you make me doubt
You deny me for another who denies you
And I all I can say is I do know what that emotion is about
I stay consistent, sleep, eat, dreams and in my mind its your voice that shouts

Constantly my thought formulated and made, so smart I think I am
But this puzzle dims my intelligence
The question…
Is giving up to lose you in an effort to save my pride, or to let you go to find another
Because despite your qualms and my wanting to be done
I think we need eachother
I’ve just decided that despite your feelings of up or down
I will still need you.

For my Father

the Creative Director — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 10:25:47 +0000

I will not deny myself the universe
The stars, the blue hues of sky throughout the planets atmospheres
Coursing with the air and the breath of God in the stratosphere
My verse a breath of my thought creating fog in this frigid air
Telling you now with outraised fist that I would kiss the ground where you walk
And as I revere the way you talk, and triumph at the thought of having you as my idol
Relishing the beauty of all your thoughts, patterns unique to my mind
The delicate thread that creates the line of love and friendship
As you share that what you have is mine
And time unfolds, the purple hues of sunsets too many to count from cold to warm
Where you, consistently would go and come as the sun does
That show of perfect love
Always giving and giving and giving
Denying yourself the time to stop in an effort to make it look effortless
Your flaws couldn’t make me love you less
But adore you more
Like heartbreak is to a poet
Your perfection inspires this metaphor
I deny myself the place to look in your face and say with disgrace that I am not worthy
Because that’d be too hard to do
But honestly it is impossible to match your efforts with my words of thank-you
And as I delve into my heart for the words to cure this need
To say that I love you, need you, respect your pride as the lions do
I realize that the only way to thank you is to be you in this aspect
I’m my own man, but I realize its my father that keeps me on track
I realize that we as his family, my mother, my sisters, my brother
We are this man’s universe
His sneeze, his needs, his ruthless scream
We are his passion, after a fashion and we are why, even in pain, he can keep laughing
So I will not deny myself the universe and to show what he means to me
I will strive to be that to my family.
I love my papa, my papi, mi padre, my father, my daddy
The tears I held back as I wrote this are a small thing
Because I do realize what I have and its sad that I know that
I’ll only be half of you as a dad.

A poem by Sin

After you’ve eaten my honey
And its all turned to dust
Are you going to wail bloody murder
And say its me you don’t trust
After your lust, your lies
The secrets you try to hide
When it all comes to light
All of sudden, you don’t love me
And its me you want to fight?
You want blame? say my name,
I am your addiction your affliction
What you say when you think no one’s listening
I’m what you did in the dark
I’m the black corner of your heart
I’m truths adversary
And what’s scary is that you embrace me
Until truth makes you face me
And then you turn, burned, you decide to hate me?
Wait, see the fact is
When your night was blackest
You invited me in
Fearing the truth
But trusting me
Your darkest temptation
Funny how you fall for me
And how you try to make the pleasure you get from me
A distant memory seconds after we made your desires reality
Because you never see through my mirage
My fight is covered by your lust
Its the perfect camouflage
But what’s sweet is the fact that you’re so naïve
I pimp out my pleasures
All I snatch is a piece of your soul
Until you’ve given me yourself
For an illusion
Thought isn’t so soothing
The sad fact is I can tell you exactly what I’m doing
And you just say you’ll get away but its just you that you’re screwing

Sincerely
You know me well ;p

Temptation

Temptation

Lured in by her colored vodka
Quick her lips pull me in for the kiss
Her colored liquor her lipstick
Sweet with the dark touch of what?
My weakness, my need for the lurid lust
The touch of her fingers upon my wicked door
Until I am left in bondage, begging for more
Chained to her, drunk on her
I drink it in and oh, the taste
So easy to get wasted on the beauty
Her pallor in the dim light as my feeling encompass my reason
And I fall in a trap of mine own design
Being led away I taste the honey of her lusciousness
Her faceless allure just far away in the dark for me to not see
Not see the wickedness that was tempting me
She knows my every want and she gives to me
Everytime I want as I die
My death a feeling of letting go
Me just going with the flow
Sinful
Her chocolate gaze, her beautiful face
But enough, knowing too much will make me lose my will
I try to escape, But her claws her honeyed tone leaves their mark in my wake
So I finally realize…
I’ve been in a hostel situation all this time.
You’ve seen the movie,
I haven’t but I saw the commercials
Led away by their lust they lost what was really valuable to them
Distracted by what seemed like the dream of a lifetime
Don’t get lost in the hype, needing a lifeline
The definite factor played, is that our desires is how we are led astray

Love Drunk

Love Drunk

The development of beauty
Opal and sapphire, crystalline liquid
It flows right through me
Takes me at an exotic place where I’m power, where I’m wealthy
And every woman around me is a Persian queen
Beautifully, hot blooded, like soup and tea
Until I sink into the black night in broad facelight
That’s me when I’m drunk, and when I’m in love

Skin

I love her skin
Her exotic, brown and amazingly hypnotic skin
Her caramel, make me melt in the sun of her smile skin
Her textured, perfectly measured, driving me wild skin
Her tone and the mysteriously perfected quality when
She puts it in her mind to blow mine
Until time, blind, flies past out of sight
Until the memory left in my heart is the sweet caress of her skin
When she held my hand, I felt the wind of her voice
And my will so strong, just bends
Within the eloquent beauty of the sculptured perfect altar called her skin
Are we so meant within the sway of our souls
To be two halves to make a prevalent whole
Because its only with you that I don’t feel utterly alone
Because desperately, and separately I wish to separate myself from this constant separation
Because I can no longer ignore the power of insatiable elation
Because my addiction is everything her skin represents

Live

the Creative Director — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 23:19:59 +0000

As long as we’re living there will always be somebody who’s purpose is to inspire you out of your cycle of lifeless living. I am that somebody. Tactless smiles in your everyday routines, not shaken alive by your pain or the consistent nature of your state of being, you become numb to the reality of your mediocrity. You decide to settle for being a little less than nobodies, content with your corner of the universe. A useless island, weak, solitary and drifting in an ocean of desires, dreams and opportunity. So afraid to swim, looking at the swirling wonder of unkown called the future. Taking the easiest path, afraid to even put your foot in. Weak. Pathetic. Drifting covering your useless fears in expensive aesthetics. Where’s your drive, your will to do more than just survive, and ride the waves where lands the tide. Where is your passion to lift out of the misery of everyday sanity chasing and fly. Where’s your passion?
