The ‘Melancoholic’
Our souls align and bring the light
Magical, iridescent shining bright
But
Darkness descends when the liquid hits the veins
Clouds rain eggshells to dance on around the drains
The one who HYDES rises to the top
Venom spouts and never stops
The vinyl skips losing me doesn’t matter matter matter
Your lyrics slice making my heart shatter shatter shatter
The demon is here thinking everyone will take me
Whilst thundering threatening I’ll flee
Silence meets noise to diffuse the cruel
The dazzle slowly fades from the jewel
Everything...
Magical, iridescent shining bright
But
Darkness descends when the liquid hits the veins

Your lyrics slice making my heart shatter shatter shatter
The demon is here thinking everyone will take me
Whilst thundering threatening I’ll flee
Silence meets noise to diffuse the cruel
The dazzle slowly fades from the jewel

I ain't fucking stopping
broke my soul
tarred and feathered me
because you couldn't live up to the man
inside your own head
so you decided to scheme
but I know you seen
the godliness
it scares the bejesus out of you
and it should
oh, it fucking should
I'm the Governor on the walking dead
rolling up in a tank
because heads are gonna roll
John Wick with a pencil
or maybe Heath Ledgers Joker
want to see a magic trick?
I'm sure
I'm sure
you called me every name in...

Angry Little Child
Anger holds me like the ribcage holds the heart,
Like the vines strangle the trees,
Like the prison suffocates the sinner,
Like the conscience that eats at the guilty,
Like the banks enslave the river.
Taunting me to defeat,
Choking me till I can't breathe.
Like the vines strangle the trees,

Like the banks enslave the river.

the morning
The morning
Wake me up at six, I have an appointment
with a doctor at nine
At six, at six, at six, went into my head
I could not sleep
At four, I got up and drank a glass of wine
hoped this would lull my brain and get some
sleep
The wine worked well, I woke up at eight
It's too late for the doctor now. a need a bath
with that, she went back to bed
She slept to the forenoon and scolded me
once upon a time, she had been a stewardess
wore a nice uniform, I have the photo,
but she was not an actress and could not ...

This poem is called If I cry alone
If I cry alone,
am I like the tree
falling in the forest?
the one that
if there's no-one to hear it
then does it make a sound?
Does pain have a voice?
Or a shape,
Or a form?
And if it does,
Is it the shape
Of a tear drop?
And if a tear drops
Where does it go?
Does it still exist?
And if pain has a voice
Is it a sob,
a cry in the dark?
And if I cry alone,
Then no-one will hear it,
And if no-one hears it
...

familial souvenirs for a past life
I want to shred your face
with my fingernails
I want you to hug me
and tell me you've always
loved me
and let all perceived sins
be forgiven
I want to forgive you
let the past float
into an ocean of new
where this blood
doesn't haunt us anymore
I want to take this pain
and shove it through your chest
and pretend like you feel
... something
I want you
to feel something
for me
that isn't blind animosity
and generational violence
I want there...

Child
I was a child
the brunt of jokes
too young to understand the laughter
torn between humiliation and need for attention
I was a child
defenseless, confused
too young to understand my body’s reactions
torn between shame and need for affection
I was a child
hiding, unprotected
too young to understand the rage was not my fault
torn between fear and need for acceptance
I was a child
hurt, neglected
too young
torn
I was a child.

Behind my Mask
Behind my mask that grins and hides
the truths that I am terrified,
though people think I'm speaking clear
tis just my teeth chattering fear
to again unbe a faceless thing no one has eyed...
I didn't Be before arrived
I shan't Be beyond that Great Divide,
when my face wears death's toothy lear
where my blind eyes shed no more tears
Behind my mask.
So I act as if normalised
but see the...

In the Shadow of Stars
When I looked up at the endless night,
Stars twinkled like secrets whispered low,
I asked the heavens, “Where’s the light?
If God is real, where did you go?”
In my heart a storm was brewing,
A tempest of love turned bitter and wild,
For in those dark moments I felt so alone,
With blood on my hands and a heart defiled.
You were my anchor; you were my grace,
But addiction wrapped you in chains of despair,
Each promise made now lost in the space—
Where laughter once danced hangs silence and air. ...

don't twist the knife
I won't forgive you for this
save the guilt trips
for your own personal relationships
the only thing we've ever shared
is DNA and 15 years
living under the same roof
You don't know me
and I don't know you
but I know what kind of man you are
and it's not one I'll be keeping around
for potential good times
When the dust settles on this
sliver of our lives
I don't expect to see you again
I don't know why you never
really loved me
with the same heartache
I loved you with
and...

Silenced Violence
I didn’t know grief had a sound, until it echoed in the silence after the gunshot.
How could something so final, so brutal, happen so fast?
The tears felt so heavy but were pointless. Nothing could remove your bloodstain in the dirt.
I screamed at the ground, but the earth didn’t care,
So, I cursed at the heavens demanding he be spared.
The truth is we stand in a shooting range, and no one even flinches when the bullets start flying.
As kids play on the playground, which would soon be their graveyard.
Like bodies hitting the ground is just background...

Drowning in Depravity
you want to be an artist
and be taken more serious
sorry, that's just not the world we live in
you want attention
all you have to do is show more skin
bust out those tits
pop that ass out
because nothing fucking matters
nothing fucking matters N E more
and if you're wondering
what I'll be up to
while the world burns
I think I'll be
drowning myself
in depravity
there's no heaven
when we live in hell
sheeps with their red hats
being lead to the slaughter
and it makes me laugh ...
