POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I generally write poems about what's in my head at that moment. I'd say I'm quite partial to certain drugs and I enjoy writing about them, oh and indulging in em. I tend to use the odd expletive too, as I would day to day. Hope you en
Now you see it, Now you don't.
Sometimes we go through life searching, but never get close enough.
Sometimes things seem so close, at times even close enough to touch.
Sometimes how we see things, are nothing more than just a mirage.
Sometimes what we thought would always be there, is taken from our clasp and replaced with just memories to remind us of the past.
Sometimes we say too little, while other times we say to much.
Sometimes what we want, is something, we can't quite grasp.
Sometimes we just don't know,
Sometimes there isn't anyone to ask.
Sometimes all we need is...

Darkness
Never before have I felt so alone, I've never ever felt this far from home.
It wasn't supposed to be like this, things haven't gone to plan.
The grey clouds are getting darker and are stretching far across the land. Slowly suffocating the bright blue sky, it's now a floating black cloud of misery.
With each day it gets more difficult to work out where I wanna be. Clarity seems so fucking obscured it will soon be hard to see, it's a thought that, to be honest, scares the absolute shit out of me.
It's all my doing this position I'm in, I've managed to fuck everything...

My Boy
On the 28th day of November in the year 1992, my first son Daniel Leo was born on a rainy Saturday afternoon.
When ur mums water broke, we both kinda freaked out. A mad dash to the hospital, then just waiting around.
I had the easy job, same can't be said for Fee. Then after 6 hours of labour and some assistance from me, you finally decided to show yourself for everyone to see.
Weighing in at 6 pound 10 ounces and at 51 centimetres long, you arrived safely at 6.12pm and not a thing went wrong.
We were all blessed with a beautiful little baby boy, lucky for me, since...

Time to pay
Laying here in bed at night, wishing I wasn't on my own.
Having someone to cuddle up with, to warm each other from the cold.
Someone to share my bed with until we're grey and old.
To hold each other through the night, your love entwined, shining bright, cuddled up till morning light, still holding each other close and tight
I wish i wasn't waking up alone.
Maybe it's time to pick up the phone n call a pro to come around to bone.
It's finally time that I paid, to make fucking sure that I get laid.
I can't rely on plain ol luck, to end my drought...

My ray of sunshine
To my one and only princess Lilly Rose, just how much more adorable you will get nobody knows.
Look how you've grown, your already five, the day you were born was one of the happiest days of my life.
To me you will always be the most beautiful little girl there is alive.
I was there to watch you when you started to crawl and I'll always be there to catch you when you fall.
I loved how at bedtime, we'd take turns in telling stories.
Then we'd all fall asleep with me in between Joshy and you, I'll always have those memories.
You are my sunshine on a cloudy day...

Here or there
Stuck here at the crossroads not sure which way I want to go.
They say home is where the heart is, so how am I supposed to know.
As its been ripped out and broken, now it's lifeless, limp and empty, no longer does it glow.
Once so full of life and beating the brightest red, the colour has long since vanished, it now begins to fade.
Ready to be picked apart by the scavengers of their trade.
Exposed for all the haters who want their piece of flesh, so c'mon fuckers, step right up while it'd warm and fresh.
If I was you I wouldn't take to long to secure...

Fairytales to Reality
It's a place that exists in the back of your mind. So mystifyingly beautiful, you would only dream to find.
Where people and dragons are on the same side and witches and warlocks are husband and bride.
With fireworks for sunrise and an amber coloured moon bringing in the night.
Angelic fairies who dance around the fireflies who shine so bright.
Sea serpents and goblins, mermaids and ghosts. You never have to feel afraid as Merlin is your host.
Maybe that's why all these enchanted animals can live in such peaceful and tranquil surroundings.
Yet enjoy...

Sex is fun
Sex is good, sex is fun.
Its hard to do on the run.
On the table, on the floor.
Slamming up against the door.
No time to stop, we both want more.
Lets finish round three and start round four.
On the fridge, in the grass.
Sun dried leaves scratch my arse.
Out in public, who cares if we're seen by cars.
Pressed naked hard up against the glass.
In the car, front or rear.
I don't recommend while driving, it's hard to steer.
In the shower, in the bath.
I slipped over, we had to laugh.
On the sink or on the toilet.

Speed
Speed is flowing through my veins.
Speed is fucking with my brain.
Speed is tying me up in chains.
Speed could make me go insane.
Speeds got me hooked once again.
Speeds got me hooked nothing to gain.
Speeds got me hooked only me to blame.
Speeds in control but I will regain.
Speed has to be beaten, it's not a game.
Speed will be beaten you will not claim.
Speed this is my life and I will remain.
Speed this is my life this is my domain.
Speed my growing need I must contain.
Speed your hold it tightens but I must refrain. ...

Looking into your own eyes
How do you define true love, does anybody really know.
True love can not be measured by words alone for our actions speak louder yet they themselves do not always show.
Is it never forgetting an anniversary or birthday, is it simply just holding hands while you walk.
Is it wiping the tears from their eyes when they cry or is it simply just listening when they talk.
Maybe a random bouquet of flowers every once in a while, for no other reason, than to see your loved one smile.
Maybe it was love at first sight and you know they're mr or mrs right.
You...

Old habits
I thought I'd write a poem to describe just where it is I'm at.
I've revisited a habit from the past, can only blame myself for that.
From one small seed...
To a full grown weed...
The want has turned into greed.
The greed has turned into need.
I fear it will never heed.
It's in my veins that it breeds.
Praying on my weakness to live and feed.
The only thing that's guaranteed.
Is its an uphill battle with this drug called speed.
I need to be strong and hold it back.
I need all my ammunition to defend...

Pure white
Not sure who I am but I'm no longer who I've been.
How ever it is that I turn out, is yet to be seen.
I am consumed by the growing need, to be constantly off my face on speed.
The feeling that you get when the needle breaks the skin, watching that fine red line as it drawn back in.
Hopefully no one has to notify my next of kin.
Is this where I'm heading, I don't really know.
Just don't push it in to quick take it nice and slow.
As it joins my bloodstream and heads towards my brain, my pulse gets higher and my heart beats faster as it screams...
