I need not light to see
That choosing to be good
Is riddled in hypocrisy
As their weakness becomes mine
It is hard to rise above;
Their sloth is overwhelming
Many deserve death
Yet I am forced to walk among them
Humanity is weakness

For those who run to and from the flames
Know that I am the fire
For those who seek shelter from the rain and thunder
I am the storm
For the ones who huddle together when the ground rumbles
I am the very Earth that quakes
I am the wind... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 8 Views added 6 months ago

To persons unknown I say unto thee
The end of days are upon your creed
But tis' not the action you will see
As you are to perish in your dread
With fools' gold dripped in lead
I proclaim it is time for your cowards' death
There will be no... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 5 Views added 6 months ago

I do so much
But to others', they say "Here you go, more work. Enjoy."
I thought I was a minimum wage junky
But apparently, I am a slave
Thank... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 4 Views added 6 months ago

I wake up another day unrefreshed
With more obstacles that delay
With promises I've made to myself and others
And more opportunities to see me fail
When I complete a promise but fail another
It feels like I shouldn't even try
What good am I... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 6 Views added 6 months ago

What's a little more fear?
When people already fear you
What's a little more isolation?
When they already avoid you
I finally found my power
And I am no longer your slave
I may always been a monster
But some times I do behave
My greatest... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 8 Views added 7 months ago

One in darkness
Two in light
Three hungry monsters inducing fright
Four protective walls to keep them out
Five kids together or just about
Six of them lingered here before
Seven, if you count the adult whore
Eight loud bangs then broke the... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 7 Views added 7 months ago

It started so simple while feeling so right
For I didn’t suffer before your existence
Despite the odds, I somehow survived
In a dangerous world beyond the distance
I was a traveler on a road to better places
And like a wild animal, you had my... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 5 Views added 7 months ago

Have you ever been in a garden full of roses at night?
And you saw the most beautiful red flower?
You reach out to touch it
Only for it one day to collapse and cower
Was the flower always destined to die?
Or did you somehow cause its death?

In this dark place I am not afraid
I contemplate life's wonderful escapades
I know better times are on the way
Because would I even be alive if hope fades?
I tend to smile when the sun shines bright
And I'm seemingly happy to the people... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 10 Views added 7 months ago

I know you feel this
This devastation you have caused
Your actions of uncaring still linger
But one day the memory of you will be gone
You're a terrible person, you know it's true
You were the biggest imposter of all
Sadly, your unkindness... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 8 Views added 9 months ago

When we first met, it was not love at first sight
You were a woman - I've seen those before
And I was a boy trying my best to be a man
We went among our business without hesitation
But as the days past, you crept into my mind
You were there... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 12 Views added 1 year ago

I like the darkness
I do not need to see
I am good
Because I choose to be
As darkness surrounds my being
I know that I am not alone
Forgive me for being weak
But it is too late to atone
The darkness offers clarity
And there is no need... – by Adam Roy Carrigan | 338 Views added 1 year ago
