"Flame #13"

"Flame #13"

By Arcassin Burnham

I'm learning to love myself but the emptiness is still there,

licking all my palms cause I don't cry, makes it hard to bare,

she was with me and then she left , it always never fails,

he told me he was my homie then decided to tell,

people aren't trust worthy so i keep my distance,

when I talk , I'm two steps ahead like I ran a greater

distance,
Been down and out before but my heart is still beating,
had no father for most of my life , my heart is still beating,
I been stopped holding grudges early this year,
cause all fake people wanna make me feel fear,
but this year I'll prevail,
I don't care what you say,
the evils of this world,
surely won't win today.

"Road To Minds Eye #3"

"RTME #3"

By Arcassin Burnham

Many people come with many different

packages,

Some are savages , and some claim to be,

But what you say is distant memory, to

encourage the capacity of idiocy in these

human beings , listening to what they hear,

Are you kidding me?

For example , the white and self-proclaimed

wholesome american could go and blame

the black man with anything they're handling,

Which is why I don't go interracial anymore,

Bitch that's how I'm feeling,

I'm a anxious 21 year old with no censorship

but I'm surviving,

To get out my words is what I struggle with

on arriving, I'm telling.

"Imagination"

"Imagination"

By Arcassin Burnham

If there was enough love to our children

and little cousins across the universe ,it

would be a better beginning,

To only be certain that every bad thing that

we endure is in the mind and in the back of

our eyes , why don't you open them,

Open that mind up too,

Its all up to you,

What we go through is stage and we're performing,

Rip up the contract and tell the director your

Sorry,

He'll understand,

Thats a whole new world , just fall into the

rabbit hole,

Don't lose your soul while dragging across

this earth.

"Girl Noise / The Pride She Needs"

"GN/TPSN"

By Arcassin Burnham

Pretty eyes cover up lies,

But i doubt you'd do that to me.

Late nights encounters were good,

A distant memory.

I put a bunch stickers on the wall,

Keeps the demons at bay.

Your voice is like heaven,

Just please take me away.

Only if we grew up sooner,

We'd take life seriously.

The sky gets bluer,

And we stare ominously.

I could go though life with you,

My queen to be indeed.

To find a distant calmness is all I ever

really need,

Love the way you talk to me.

/

Come to me.

Talk to me.

Be the only reason.

Learn from me.

Walk to me.

Through every season.

The pride that she holds on,

Pretty shy , but spot on,

The beauty is spot on, her lips, that I taste,

And its great, Smoke in the air,

Could hide the feelings we awake,

Not safe , to be safe in this space,

No games , but we play,

No games , but we play,

No games , but we play.

Come to me.

Talk to me.

Be the only reason.

Learn from me.

Walk to me.

Through every season.

Good riddens.

Haven't got no time to try and gain

someone's acceptance.

Good riddens.

There's so many things I didn't get to do.

Good riddens.

Tock , tick,

Tick , tock.

Tock , tick,

Tick , tock.

My mom is just like her dad, cause they lie the same,

I love them both and I hope they know,

I'm not lying again,

My positivity has overcome my body and

my soul,

I don't care what you heard in the street bout' me,

My light will never get old,

So while I continue to spread love throughout

the past,

It won't let go,

For any you thats plotting on me to see

weakness, let me know,

no human being on this earth could play me,

Imitate and duplicate me,

Ignore the feeling of being peaceful and

silent maybe,

Good riddens.
