On writing, we will call this a start

It’s been so long since I set my pen to paper
I can barely smell the vapor,
of the last time my words hit the line.
I stuck them in a corner of my mind.
Till late at night, where they tend to shine.
And now they bind me to the man that taught me to rhyme,
the one I never tried to find.

And if I may digress,
I may confess,
that is one evening I will not forget,
cause I do not regret,
I will admit.

A million lights in front of my eyes,
most of them lies,
holding their own ties,
but not the one in my mind.
The one that I made shine.
I say “It doesn’t have to rhyme? Just come from inside?”.

Make it real.
Make it what you want to feel.
Make time stand still, get that chill.
And you know I will,
cause your reading this still.
I let my heart spill.

  2. time passes, a long view from looking glasses
    taking time to find the perfect crime
    A GET AWAY planned
    a new day to stand
    we've gotta keep this land
    we've gotta keep our hands
    the rhymes went something like that
    but now the car is thrashed
    poets start books on trash
    looking into the past
    and realizing the mask of those who passed
    realizing the doors and hallways
    gotta keep the calamity from fallacies
    my guns and ammo are words like BLAMO
    a comic book life, a comic book strike
    taken aback becase the car wouldn't stop
    when the car didn't stop until you unlocked that talk
    it was something that had to be done
    i'm not talking about car wrecks
    i'm talking about words that infest
    the infected message that was sent
    lights that trick eyes
    telling the aspects and every side
    it was a smooth ride, a good time
    well done well done
    keep it real and we'll understand what you feel
