Monsters Still Greet Me
An empty vow resonates
Hollow in its promise
Always corrupting
Never delivering
Surrendering control to a fake reality
The monsters still greet me
Like they are family
Bleeding the poison
Hoping I will succumb again
Corroding my happiness
The burning acid of madness
Scarring my mind
Every night I die alone
Every morning I am resurrected
It’s my Groundhog Day
Tranquility has no place
The battle rages on
An unknown war behind closed doors
Broken mirrors to hide the ugly...

Scored Out Scribbles
This cavity
This cavern
This void
Where there was beating
A heart no longer
The sound of stampeding hoofs
Used to echo
Vibrate violently
Has now faded
More a deathly silence
Mimicking life
More an actor fluffing lines
The script rewritten
Scored out scribbles
Trying to define who I am
There is still breath
It clings
Like a new born to its mother
Yet the feeling
Is icy rain on skin
I keep clambering
Like turtles on a beach
Trying to reach the...

Our Minds Are Poles Apart
We breathe
The same air
We see
The same sun
Our minds
Are poles apart
Empathy for us
Is not natural
A naïve sense
Of right and wrong
Often produces conflict
In a world of grey
We are strange
Frightening to some
But all the same
Human In every sense
We love
We smile
We laugh
Not necessarily the same way
Finding our voice
Amongst the noise
We bleed
We hurt
Like everyone else

I Am No Artist
I have painted your body from memory
Every line and sensual curve
How your lips move when speaking
Every word has meaning
As I listen to their music
Some things I can’t get used to
The way you move knocks me off my feet
The sparkle in your eyes when you smile
It shows you in a much different light
How my senses burn with desire
Yes you are painted from memory
In the canvas of my mind
Your beauty splashes bright colours
Making a summer day seem dull
Alive in the images conjured
I’m no...

Only The Heart Knows
Love is static on the brain
It don’t understand the signal
What it hears is white noise
Only the heart knows
What is going on
There is a conviction to feel
Even through the pain
Heartache comes and goes
Love silently clings
Making the blind see
Souls will always embrace emotions
In the hope of holding on to love
While the brain thinks too much
The heart and soul acts on impulse
Taking chances the brain never does
Inviting love is inviting chaos
Bringing life to the senses ...

Leading Pen Bites
Bleeding heart writes
Leading pen bites
Brittle promises
Little lies
Unspoken truths
Broken lives
Tears drip
Fears grip
Silent betrayal
Violent denial
Piss on the ground
Kiss of death makes no sound
Leading pen bites
Brittle promises
Little lies
Unspoken truths
Broken lives
Tears drip
Fears grip
Silent betrayal
Violent denial
Piss on the ground
Kiss of death makes no sound

Seen The Future
I have seen the future
It’s all based on the past
Finding it hard to breathe
Watching helplessly
As the world slowly falls apart
The opposite and equal reaction
The equilibrium of destruction
Everything is lost in translation
Nuance of misunderstanding
Enough to turn peace to disaster
I have seen the future
It’s no longer blue and green
A scorched earth
History records how the torch was lit
The fire unleashed
For all the intelligence
It was just children at play
Tantrums and...

Catalyst Of Sparks
My loves inspiration
You are the thought that grows
From the seed in my heart
With each beat my emotions cry out
To reach the fire in your soul
It’s enough for me
To just see your smile
To know you stand
Under the same roof of stars
Stand on the same mound of earth
That the breeze I feel
Is the same breeze that touches you
Mine forever more
Neither the moon nor the sun holds a candle
Your heartfelt warmth gives me life
My vivid image of burning passion
You are the gold at the end of the...

Questions Have Echoed
Is it alright
Not sure it ever was
Questions have echoed
But the answers
Have remained silent
I close my eyes
Hoping I will disappear
Felt this way
For as long I van remember
With what memory I have left
Through the dark years
I stretched every nerve
Tying to escape
The machinery of my mind
A faulty engine that keeps running
Not completely numb
Feelings pop like blisters
It just goes on
The scars are no longer invisible
My eyes can count them now

It Burns
Love burns
Yes it dies
Burns like acid
Disfiguring the heart
A painful torment
Felt every moment
The burning won’t ever die
It’s in the nerves
In the skin
It’s a burning kiss
A fire in the soul
Truly no escape from its burn
Yes it dies
Burns like acid
Disfiguring the heart
A painful torment
Felt every moment
The burning won’t ever die
It’s in the nerves
In the skin
It’s a burning kiss
A fire in the soul
Truly no escape from its burn
