Love me or hate me
few people can take me
plain, unadulterated, true to myself
their compulsive need to gussy me up
or completely disguise me
gives me nightmares...
Horrible- horrible!
The worst is where
they try to make me
Savory.
Suffocated in sauces, sweet relish
and pickled beets
garnished with green olives
and fussy-cut vienna sausages
all dancing in fancy chorus lines
on top of me
Oh No! I can't take it...
It just can't be!
What are they thinking?!
I awake with a snug sensation
as something warmish
drapes and
drizzles
down my back
AAAAAHHH!
Caramel sauce-
Thank God!

The world is my mirror, it reflects
a man not yet made, so much
pain and suffering reside, it will not
change till I change inside, acknowledge
what I am, an inflated ego, in denial
of my true self, my sentient being
suffocated by lies, this is the reflection
I see, this is what is inside of me,
and little by little the ego crumbles
away and is buried by all of its
crutches unfulfilled, the reflection changes
with not one soul killed.

My love for you is an addiction, my devotion my noose
clinging to delusion makes me struggle for breath
to fill my aching lungs, I must cut my desire loose
Outwardly you love me, but it’s what’s inside that bears weight
my shameless attempts to woo you, stain a barren portrait
my love for you is an addiction, my devotion my noose
I hunger for a love that is undeniably unrequited
suffocated by the harsh reality, shadows consume me
to fill my aching lungs, I must cut my desire loose
my love for you is an addiction, my devotion my noose

Oh my dear Frappe I love you so
Oh my sweet stalker kitty
Your heart just said no
And at the end you were all giddy
My sweet sweet kitty
You were always so funny
The way you almost suffocated the lizard
And it was sad when you died during the blizzard
Oh my dear Frappe I love you so
I love your giant bean toe
I love your fluffiness
I loved your niceness
I love your stalker tendencies
I love that you and the bear were enemies
I love your multi colered eyes
But unfortunely you had to cut ties
Oh my dear Frappe I love you so
I'm so sad you had to go
Oh my dear frappe I love you
I love you so

lost love
Endless nights of darkness
and loneliness choke my
lost soul.
My soul becomes trapped
within a glass bottle of
untold tales.
My body feels only cravings,
cravings for his gentle hands
that I once embraced within
my own.
My mind only sees his face
fading from my memory,
making my heart to become
suffocated with the dust of
my shattered feelings.
As time goes by my whole
body and mind will remain
within an ocean of lubricating
darkness until I find his angelic
face once more.

Peerless Princess
The peerless princess
in her charismatic charm
owning pristine heart
was tied in Royal chain.
Got suffocated, throttled.
Frantically yearned
for freedom in open air.
A passionate prince
came in glamour of amour.
Held hand to venture new life.
Determined lovers
exchanged wedding ring in glee
to flee on joy ride.
but murdered in the tunnel
though declared as accident.

I'm filled with such emotion-
That my chest tremors with the earth itself.
I can't-
Breathe.
Thoughts of-
You.
Have suffocated-
Me.

Dark Heart Word Art
She stole my heart, loves flood, no ark
Red lipstick, brown flesh, heart marked
I drew my breath directly from my heart
Art starts in the dark randomly quarked
Searing black whole, nothing escapes
Too big to exist, love’s massive void
Passed out, drunk off bliss from her sweet grapes
Her piercing stare from eons away, mystery I couldn’t avoid
I used to be human but what am I now?
Deep water’s darkness soul silent and suffocated
Fields of abundance, she stole my plow
Spirit fled hungrily as the ego masturbated
Commandments, I’m done with this, love's hypothesis
Our triangle had a space, wholly trinity, no Pythagorus

blessing, love,
I breath heavily,
as I'm suffocated by the oxygen in the room,
your hands filled with my flesh,
your arms compress my bones, as I place my forehead against your chest,
giving you consent, to submerge me in your zest,
Giving you direction, my body is your quest,
i'm a movement by my self, but a force when we connect.
protrude beyond my flesh, my body's soaking wet, drenched within your gentle caress, you peer into my soul through the windows of your own, relying solely upon desire, and what the human body knows, the passion, the fire, the highs and the lows, Love shouldn't hurt, the planted power grows.

Drowning in the darkness
suffocated by the cool air
Breathing in forgiveness
yet not exhaling all the confusion
Frustration
comes to seek
While I run to find
the path already chosen
That way we will succeed
I'll win this battle with all my might
For your love I'll always fight

Arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder and it's been so long since the night I told her.
Please come closer and look at me harder.
You had me crying tears of liquid lying.
Burning at the stake I'm sorry but I wont make it.
I used to be in love with dying, but you got me to start trying.
I love you a lot a lot but let me confess that I'm not
The same person I was because
The flames have been suffocated and become more hated.
To you I devote myself for that I've withheld.
I'm yours, I'm mine, I'm yours, you're mine.

lost love, love,
The mighty Elm said to the Vine,
“On me you may climb, to reach out for the sun.”
Ivy was not shy, for she had her reasons why,
So replied to the Elm, “only if you don’t mind?”
The Elm being proud, looked Ivy in the eye,
“I see no reason why we both cannot survive?”
So Ivy held on tight and prospered in the light.
So much so she could not let go.
After many happy years, the Elm began to creak,
Ivy had grown and grown,
So much so the Elm was barely known.
Finally the Elm did die, suffocated from the sky,
With Ivy still around, it stood no longer in the ground.
Bringing Ivy right along, now both had finally gone.

lost love,
We met up
in the hallway
my fear
landed on your lips.
Trembling in thoughts
shifting from your
eyes that told me
we were done.
Molasses words
suffocated young
tongues those hands
so soft, so warm
so distant.
In this scene
this final act
your scent erased
any thoughts
before.
A Half-hearted smile
as leaves scattered
so many opposites to
the carnation
in your hair.
And in those tail lights
those bloody globes
a thousand times
over
regret would never
replace the loss.

Uncertainly Wrong
Should I believe that I’m breathing?
When I know I’m just suffocated?
Should I believe that I’m alive?
When I know I’m dead?
Should I wait for the time you will be here?
When I know you’re not coming back?
Should I stop myself from crying?
When I know my tears can’t stop from falling?
Should I end mending my heart?
When I know you’re the reason why it’s broken?
Should I turn off the lullaby in my head?
When I know it’s the only thing I can keep?
Should I go back to every moment we’ve made?
When I know it’s fading swiftly?
Should I stop screaming your name?
When I know that my lips will always remember it?

That smoke, stinks and heat
You are underneath
In the fish market
You died suffocated
No one loves you
You died nothing
If you don't stink
You are kept there
You are no human
Because you are 'illegals'
You are nothing
But a waste that stink
You don't have to defend
If you love yourselves
Wake up, mirror yourselves
Don't forget to wash your face
Look at yourselves
and fonder what happen
You are a 'catshit'
Lovelier than a 'bullshit'
No one could help
Help alone yourselves
Not anyone but you
Wake up, knocked the morning!
I love you peace. Let's sail together. Layag Sug!

deep, emotions, first love, goodbye, lost love, love, memory,
From the moment you walked away,
I tried replacing you the things you loved.
I read your poetry over and over until my eyes burned
And my heart combusted.
I tried to like black coffee, but only choked down half a cup
Before adding milk and honey to what remained.
I tried to use your detergent, but everything smelled of regret.
I tried sleeping in your shirt,
But I was suffocated by the fabric every night.
I listened to your playlist until my mind spoke in Nirvana lyrics.
I tried to love what you left behind,
But it wasn’t the same.

freedom, inspirational, love, uplifting,
How many give themselves for love.
Only to find themselves controlled and suffocated
Told what to wear and how to think
Treated invisibly
This is no kind of love at all
Love is something to be shared with all
If you feel as if you're being oppressed
Then breakaway
Then breakout
Then take care of your own needs
Then take care of your own love
Spread your wings and soar on clouds
Of freedom and start to breath again.

A prayer for our household friend
Please bow our heads
Dear Little Fellow,
We’re very sorry
you are dead
suffocated in the trap
Hope
your last supper
was enjoyable: homemade roasted pine nuts
May you find peace
in mouse heaven
Reunite with your love ones

Motherhood is good
Yet I feel suffocated in it's daily hood
Choked by chores
Burden by it's routines
Bombarded by everyday responsibilities
Motherhood is hard
Yet it makes me glad
The smiles I see
The hugs I receive
The children I bear
The children I rear
Motherhood is the evidence that love will last
It's what I call the tremendous blast

abuse, anger, i love you, love hurts,
Your lips smile sweetly,
But your eyes are so cold,
Your arms wrap around me,
Like a cage.
Your hand on my cheek,
In a slap so bold,
Your fingers on my neck,
Eyes hot with rage.
My face on your chest,
Suffocated in your hold,
Love binds my heart,
And I cannot disengage.

As kids, we fell and you
Helped us up.
My mother, unemployed, tended to our every need.
As kids, we fell and you
Yelled and made us do it again.
My father, employed, suffocated our souls.
As teens, we needed love advice.
My mother explained consequences of our actions.
As teens we needed love advice.
My father explained the "four F's".
Now as adults,
We only include our mother in our lives.
Wonder why?

emotions, heart, heartbroken, lost love, love hurts,
My whole nervous systems fried
There's a day I haven't cried
From the feelings I've bounced
all around--it's like you pounced
On a heart you suffocated
That can't be resuscitated
My life force is being drained
And your footprint is engrained
With tread marks of certain doom
You didn't leave me any room
To catch any of my breath
My hearts being squished to death
Along with the love I gave
Now its all just in the grave
You buried my love away
Stomping on it till the day
I no longer live any more
You hated me down to the core
From the start I don't know why
All these years was just a lie

With Your Feelings
Dr Ranjit Dutta
It is the moment
To confront with time,
It is the moment of
A silent prepation
To find me in myself.
The memories are amusing
Let them amuse.
Suffrrings struck my heart
Let it be continued.
The drops of toxicant vermon
Drip down from the Cosmos,
The door is closed
I 'll not open it.
If the intoxication of life
Is suffocated
Why should I become siege in vain?
Let me live far away in solitude
Embracing the warmth of your love.

love,
If I reached out, would your fingers entwine?
If I stepped forward, would you stay behind?
We have suffocated here, what use to be home, now just a town.
And I just want to live with you, dear, and ensure you needn’t ever frown.
Come with me please, there is a world waiting to live.
Dearest, travel with me, so that to you I can freely give.
I am waiting to spill out all that I have, am, and can.
So please, my darling. Reach out. Take my hand.
