That lake of Eden is inside
His tired, tired pride
His strangling pride
His menacing pride
His god-forsaken pride!
And see blue broken dreams
Along his withered screams
His silent screams
His throbbing screams
His heart-shaped, shatter dreams
Mingling his breath where death sleeps
He weeps, oh god, he weeps!
His weak weeps
Her meek weeps
Those darken-devoured weeps!
And darkness could not love the less
His despair and loneliness
His loneliness
Her loneliness
Their lovely, lurking loneliness!
Where she rests with content
Without him, it's torment
Paradise of torment
Golden-gated torment
Her lonely-he
There she is,
An opiate,
To make all addicts rise
He tries
And he tries
To love her,
The opiate,
With intoxicated eyes
There she is,
An opiate,
To make satisfied their cries
He sighs
And he sighs
To hate her,
The opiate,
With intoxicated eyes
There she is,
My opiate,
To help me realize
I lie
And I lie
To ignore her,
My opiate,
With intoxicated eyes
And,
There she is again,
My opiate,
Trying to sympathize
My cries
And their cries
To love her again,
The opiate,
With intoxicated eyes

Her Water, Her Land, Her Sky
Let her wield her song
And vibrate the strings
While my heart's plucked along
To her song
That song she sings
Let her master her painting
and increase the taints
While my mind's chaos is fainting
To her painting
That painting she paints
Let her temper her dancing
And stare the glances
While I surrender the dancing
To her dancing
That dance she dances

My Pleasing Nightmares
Looking out my window, I'm watching the sunset bleed through the skies
I've spotted her figure in clouds with the sun beaming through her eyes
And I can see her smile glaring across this painted picture
Secondhand love has got the addiction rising to an elixir
And as the lights dim, I caught her silhouette between my stars
With connecting the pattern of her beauty marks and her scars
And the beats to my heart stutter, as the butterflies rise and flutter
My mind aches to mutter a whisper crisp saying "I lover her"
When the night awakes I can hear the wind mimic her voice
It makes the blood in my veins stop, and my heart melts moist
Agony spits my sin's ripples
Effecting lives I never thought I'd touch
It's gotten back to me when Karma's tear trickles
Truculent to the diffident clutch
Cogent pleas from an inner child's imagination
As I bequeath my being to mine
I need remedy for a sinner's fascination
Beneath seeing an intellect shine
I'm a liege to the depredation
When my heart is mended with cracks
At a siege of my separation
My art is defended with what it lacks
Abstractly alone in this dimension of mind
Lamentable to my nostalgia of today
I allude what's shown and dismiss the rewind
Flying to a scenery of broken dreams when I runaway
I'm gone…
I'm fine at the tip of a blood's stain
Blades split edges and I'm still standing
My spine sat ripped from love's pain
Crusades fit my wars when religion is demanding
I'm alone and I could give a fuck
Built up buckles of supercilious creativity
Heart's stone stuck until I ran a muck
Quilted luck with chuckles; feeling this innate gift spill and be
And when the age of fifteen expires my adolescence
I'll yell and kick while catching the balance
Broken with rage at an apple's appearance
I'm free when being me, and only hatching my talents
I'm me and I love the expression
Preaching to the choir of black sheep
Stairs are steep as I w

Lost and Crestfallen
Lost in the sight of distraction
Found in darkness
When the light
Shines at night
And glares past him
Smiling in the
Death of his misery
He was crying in the
Breath of this mystery
Sighing at what is left
When after became previously
With lords in his hands
He shouts ferociously
Engaged in the
Fire of outrage
With frustration
Struggles to fight
This dark light
In his mind's molestation
Forced to go fourth
Into the light of satisfaction
Pushed back from the
Fact of imperfection
Lost and crestfallen
Heart's crossed
As he has fallen
Not appearing in the sight of the Lord
Tasting the sharpness of this vigor sword

Between My Fingers
In between fingers
I hold a pen;
Answering questions
Again and again.
In between my fingers
I am hypnotized
Fair enough to see
Behind all three eyes.
In between my fingers
I found several scars
And held your scissors;
Cutting shapes of stars.
In between my fingers
I caught my self
With which I touch your lips
Against my mouth
In between my fingers
I have decayed spots
And I roll them like coins
Across your beauty dots.
In between my fingers
I held your screams,
Your love, your being,
And your scenery of broken dreams
In between my fingers
Is nothing but space,
Solitude, and depression
Washing away my face.
In betw
Through my young years
I could not hold my tears-
For I am my own antipathy
So, I left myself
To my fire and wine
And that mind of mine;
A threshold breaking my spine-
Constantly breaking my spine.

Motions of Shattering
Why are you untwining your mind across this winter's breeze?
I've forgotten those trickling chills and reminisce holiday cheers
And how did you spill the minutes' ink with ease?
I thought your burdens leaked out tears across sinister years
Why have you become a fugitive to your fulfilling function?
Your infidelity to sunny days has gotten your genesis fractured
And how have you harmonized with your abnormal skeleton?
I thought your eyes held better dreams, once your nihilism scattered
Why do you echo uniforms of darkened days?
I've been clutching your perplexity with much rational details
And yet, you are petrified to those sunlit r
He has a savage mouth waiting for a fractured skeleton
And he is shook too quick to know the pain
Maybe my fist can help him comprehend
That I don't play much when I touch tear's rain
Sticking his sin and bleeding from my nose
He's scared to fight back my shadows
I'm too caught up in dark that I suppose
Cracking every bone should teach him to pick his battles
I'm throwing all my me in these knuckles
And the force is too strong to withdraw
His jaw is shit out of luck with my chuckles
And he better like sucking food from a straw
These raw deft grotesque fists are burnin'
Cus I'm kinda hungry for this here
I bet he's been yearnin'
The curtains into my solitude lay open waiting for my approach to be devoured into a cracked confinement of adolescence. The closing of these eyes are swore to the imagination I've had breathe for in many dark years. Of course deep oceans were once shallow, but the Aquarian suicide of raindrops poured for three years and made those puddles (that once were nearly puddles) filled with ruptured mirrors and fractured skeletons waiting to be spilt before the opened closet.
Although I walk with a smiled face, I, Salvador Ruiz, can't seem to grasp that happiness I had before felt when my ocean seized to be a puddle. Those feelings may be touched o
Petals of silk come out your sides
In a red shade; beautifully, slowly decaying your insides.
Being watered with love, showered with light of mine.
Growing, blossoming with spring.
The skyline you bring
Makes the grasses dance in appreciation of your design.
With proper care you give me sneezes.
In a dark fade I see your persona and my mind freezes.
Being you are you and I'm taken for granted.
You smile and lit a fire under my skin.
Spread the joy, and gave me sin
And I grin, happily satisfied, thanking God you were planted.
I should have pulled you out of your holding cell.
Just by looking into your nature I see your molding he

The Other Side of Darkness
The Other Side of Darkness
By Salvador Ruiz
On The Other Side of Darkness is where you'll find me. On this side of darkness light cannot exist, because light stops on your side. Black isn't a color where I live, because I have no knowledge of the spectrum, therefore color has no reason for existence if it is beyond my knowing. You say it has a right to be, just like you and me. Hear me when I tell you that the darkness consumes them and blows away that flame of color in which you hold for light and hope.
Darkness isn't a necessity, but it drowns all life within the liquids of depression and brings me so deep that pressure is strongest,
I'm taken away, so give me your scent daily
You can't escape heaven and you crave my sin
I'll devour myself with your being and maybe it'll save me
I'm a hell dweller who can light a fire under your skin
Why don't you pull down your home and bring it to mine
I'll break my spine to uphold this underworld
We can meet in between earth's mind
Fly down, now, and let's make thunder whirl
We will be equally alive as half demon and half angel in one being
Giving ourselves a name of salvation, and kept hidden in our souls
We will be a rare presence when we are in his seeing
And our love will be the only love, a consequence in his heart havi

don't deny that sick feeling in your stomach, you can't run from it/
let it guide you into high view and move beyond the summit/
From peeks to valleys, speed through alleys and if it's done quik/
you'll have the time to find the days that were never sun-lit/
