My Digital Prison
I came home from work
To an empty house
The tv left on
The taps running
But noone here
I look out the window
Into an empty garden
And surrounding gardens
Which are also empty
Noone there
Where is everyone?
Where is the family?
The beds have not been slept in
The wardrobes are empty
The bathroom is dark
Noone there either
I find a mirror
With dust accumulating
There's something wrong
This mirror I do not recognise
Yet it is placed behind my desk
Where I sit everyday
In fact I recognise...
To an empty house
The tv left on
The taps running
But noone here
I look out the window
Into an empty garden
And surrounding gardens
Which are also empty
Noone there
Where is everyone?
Where is the family?
The beds have not been slept in
The wardrobes are empty
The bathroom is dark
Noone there either
I find a mirror
With dust accumulating
There's something wrong
This mirror I do not recognise
Yet it is placed behind my desk
Where I sit everyday

What has happened to me?
Living the life faster than ever I stop and stare
I look back to see I ran so fast
My footsteps are lost in the air
I stand still
Look from side to side
Nothing but confusion in my eye
I’m wondering where the well am I going
When I’m lost in this night not a shed of light
The destination out of sight this ain’t right
Stranded in a fight with the night
I’m losing my might
I’m like a windless kite I keep losing height
I think I’m heading for the end
Where there’s no help to send I’ve gone beyond mend
This deadly path won’t bend yes this...

Diagnosis and Recovery
We go round this circle on a daily routine.
This circle, like all circles, shows not its beginning, neither its end
I don’t know where it began, and I don’t know where it will stop
The bitterness yielding and succumbing within the love
Presenting itself in the form of an ominous shadow
Penetrating our perfect love
This cannot go on
For I fear our perfect love will become imperfect
Yet how can love be imperfect?
What is perfect, true, unconditional love?
Imperfect love, like everything imperfect
Is a stained, second hand, inadequate version of...

Dear old friend...
Dear old friend,
I sit staring out the window
Watching the grey skies
Whilst writing this letter to you
Dear old friend,
It’s been a while now
I feel I’ve forgotten you somehow
But I’m sat here
Writing this letter to you now
Dear old friend,
How are you?
Tell me, what’ve you been through?
Share your stories
I’d like to know
Dear old friend,
My life has been a misery
My life has been bitter
My life has been sour
My life has been giving lemons
But not the ones I was expecting
And with this grey cloud...
I sit staring out the window
Watching the grey skies
Whilst writing this letter to you
Dear old friend,
It’s been a while now
I feel I’ve forgotten you somehow
But I’m sat here
Writing this letter to you now
Dear old friend,
How are you?
Tell me, what’ve you been through?
Share your stories
I’d like to know
Dear old friend,
My life has been a misery
My life has been bitter
My life has been sour
My life has been giving lemons
But not the ones I was expecting

Flames of Anger
Venom flows through my veins
Pumping out of my icy black heart
My head is raged
This burning fire devours me
This burning fire of anger
It melts away my eyes
Tears stream down my face
Tears of anger
Scoring my cheeks leaving the everlasting marks of hatred
Hatred of myself
I hate myself
For all the mistakes
For all the sins
I’ll etch into my skin
With this blade of retribution
And this beast inside me
Will roar with joy
As I succumb to my own downfall
As I allow the anger within me to take over
It already has
With...

Reality v Social Networking
I nudge her I poke her
I ask her for pictures
I watch her I take note of everything she says
She says I’m a stalker
But I say I’m just following her
I ask if she’s single
She says “go away you pervert”
She thinks I’m harassing her
But I just want to know her
I want to see her in her pyjamas
I want to watch her in her bedroom
I’ll study her wardrobe and her bed
When she’s out the room
But no
She won’t even trust me to set foot in her garden
Never mind her house
She obviously has trust issues
But I’ll keep poking her

Death
Your touch is unknown
When you’ll strike is never expected
You take from us what is dear
You break hearts in your presence
Me eyes fill with tears
As I watch the sun set on my beloved
As you take them away, on a transition?
Or to a dreaded destination
I’ll never know
This confusion causes pain
Oh misery stabs at me
Inflicting the poisons of sadness in my veins
How I wish to kill you but it is impossible!
I must end this depression
So I ask you
The next time it rains and you haunt our earth with your presence
Pay me a visit...
When you’ll strike is never expected

Inflicting the poisons of sadness in my veins

You did this to me
I inhale it in your presence
Feel the substance enter my body
I am not the person I used to be
Once it enters in my system
I am a new person
Trapped in a used shell
Locked under the influence
With hallucinations driving me crazy
My mind is against me
As I live in this nightmare
The devil laughs beside me
As he claims me as his own
I’ve lost myself
I function no more
I look but cannot see
I listen but cannot hear
I touch but cannot feel
You did this to me
I wish I was never seduced
But I cannot right my wrongs
You...
Feel the substance enter my body

Confessions of a hypocrite...
A life full of lies, what a sad truth,
Such deception overwhelming, it’s well above the roof,
Where did we go wrong? Why is this our fate?
You lied to me and made me believe, now feel my hate,
I made you feel joy, gave you everything you could desire,
Now you deserve nothing, so feel my fire,
Feel my fury, feel my rage,
You make me sick, what a bitch, the animal’s out of its cage,
You use the word ‘love’ in vain, ever so freely,
Never knowing the pain, and what it causes me,
Why did I ever let you in? you were nothing but trouble,
You shattered...

Darkness
My mind is bewildered, there's nothing I can see,
I don't know what to do, what has happened to me?
Happiness sucked out, bliss is far away,
Sadness remains present in this continuous day,
I desire to be happy, I have everything to be content,
But why must I be so far away from happiness's scent?
This confusion is crazy, it drives me insane!
I don't know what to do, I don't know how longer I can remain,
Am I being selfish? Asking for more than I've been provided?
But I crave not to be lost, God I feel so misguided!
Please help me Oh Great One I desire...
