POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm not a poet I started writing to Express feelings when going through hard times. I hope others can relate to or enjoy what I write
Never enough
I don't know if I can go on
Waking wanting to sleep
Sleeping not wanting to wake
Giving my all but never enough
Struggling through the days because life is so tough
I don't know if I can cope
Everyday not wanting the next
Hating the present hating my past
Giving my all but never enough
There's no smooth there's only the rough
Waking wanting to sleep
Sleeping not wanting to wake
Giving my all but never enough
Struggling through the days because life is so tough
I don't know if I can cope
Everyday not wanting the next
Hating the present hating my past
Giving my all but never enough
There's no smooth there's only the rough

Break the chain
I've got to stop and start over
Yet again
Another step backwards
Here comes the pain
Next time will be different
It ended just the same
Keep stopping to start over
Is how I remain
I don't know how long I can do this
It's not a life I can sustain
I'm going to achieve it this time
I got it in my brain
I need to find a way
I need to break the chain
Yet again
Another step backwards
Here comes the pain
Next time will be different
It ended just the same
Keep stopping to start over
Is how I remain
I don't know how long I can do this
It's not a life I can sustain
I'm going to achieve it this time
I got it in my brain
I need to find a way
I need to break the chain

Look in the mirror
I take a look in the mirror
I don't know whose staring back at me
I take a look in the mirror
I don't recognise who I see
I see a reflection
But it looks so scarred
I can't handle the rejection
Simple tasks become so hard
So I look in the mirror
That person thats not me
I look in the mirror
When did this come to be
Lord give me protection
Send me kindest regard
Show me the direction
Stop this pain I feel so jarred
I don't know whose staring back at me
I take a look in the mirror
I don't recognise who I see
I see a reflection
But it looks so scarred
I can't handle the rejection
Simple tasks become so hard
So I look in the mirror
That person thats not me
I look in the mirror
When did this come to be
Lord give me protection
Send me kindest regard
Show me the direction
Stop this pain I feel so jarred

The right love
Life goes by so fast yet
Things happen so slow
We watch people we loved become
People we don't know
We go through so much
Wondering how to get through
Yet at the time
We haven't a clue
Slowly we heal
We learn to love
We forget
All of the above
Just one smile
Can change it all
The right love to make
Us walk tall
Things happen so slow
We watch people we loved become
People we don't know
We go through so much
Wondering how to get through
Yet at the time
We haven't a clue
Slowly we heal
We learn to love
We forget
All of the above
Just one smile
Can change it all
The right love to make
Us walk tall

Is it any wonder
Everyone is depressed
Wages don't cover our living
Discipline has disimished
The world is taking and not giving
Yet we ask why our sky is full of thunder
Well is it any wonder
People are so rude
Respect has long since gone
Morals have disappeared
And values are none
Yet we ask why we feel so down and under
Well is it any wonder
Wages don't cover our living
Discipline has disimished
The world is taking and not giving
Yet we ask why our sky is full of thunder
Well is it any wonder
People are so rude
Respect has long since gone
Morals have disappeared
And values are none
Yet we ask why we feel so down and under
Well is it any wonder

Do the world a favour
You madam are a skidmark in my favourite boxers
A pimple on the face of life
I look at you and I question reality
It's made debate suicide once or twice
You are an ingrowing toenail
A brick in the shoe
So cock sure but you haven't a clue
If there was a prize for idiocy you'd get first place
When the hunt for brains was on you must not have joined the race
Please don't breed do the world a favour
Better still jump of a cliff with you're stupid behaviour
A pimple on the face of life
I look at you and I question reality
It's made debate suicide once or twice
You are an ingrowing toenail
A brick in the shoe
So cock sure but you haven't a clue
If there was a prize for idiocy you'd get first place
When the hunt for brains was on you must not have joined the race
Please don't breed do the world a favour
Better still jump of a cliff with you're stupid behaviour

I'm in there somewhere
My guard is down took another one on the chin
Feel like I'm fighting a fight I can't win
Lord give me the power give me the strength
This keeps dragging out over such a long length
Gun to my head ide be tempted to pull the trigger
I got a hole in my soul and it keeps getting bigger
I'm in there somewhere can I be found
Can I fight back before I end up underground
Feel like I'm fighting a fight I can't win
Lord give me the power give me the strength
This keeps dragging out over such a long length
Gun to my head ide be tempted to pull the trigger
I got a hole in my soul and it keeps getting bigger
I'm in there somewhere can I be found
Can I fight back before I end up underground

Too near or far
This is the second time I've had to think twice
The golden boy has tarnished and lost his lust for life
The wheel of fortune has come to a stop
The wildside walk has reached its height and now there's a drop
Laughter is the language of the soul
But the comedians crowd has turned away and he's stuck In a hole
The Cheshire cats been hit by a car
The end is in sight but it's always too far
The golden boy has tarnished and lost his lust for life
The wheel of fortune has come to a stop
The wildside walk has reached its height and now there's a drop
Laughter is the language of the soul
But the comedians crowd has turned away and he's stuck In a hole
The Cheshire cats been hit by a car
The end is in sight but it's always too far

Everybody
Everybody all looks the same
And thinks the same
Everybody all dresses the same
And talks the same
And that's insane
And I'm the odd one out
Everybody all wants the same
They're so insane
They're all so vain
Noone will hear me out
Everybody walks the same
And talks the same
Everybody all acts the same
It's so insane
It makes me wanna shout
And thinks the same
Everybody all dresses the same
And talks the same
And that's insane
And I'm the odd one out
Everybody all wants the same
They're so insane
They're all so vain
Noone will hear me out
Everybody walks the same
And talks the same
Everybody all acts the same
It's so insane
It makes me wanna shout

Test
Call me a moth to a flame but drawn to the things I know will cause me pain
Battle of strength battle of will
Do I give in to the easy thrill
Call me crazy Call me insane but I need the excitement in my veins
Do I stay strong Do I give in
Is this a test I can't win
Battle of strength battle of will
Do I give in to the easy thrill
Call me crazy Call me insane but I need the excitement in my veins
Do I stay strong Do I give in
Is this a test I can't win

Autistic me
Lifes been an echo
Inside a bubble
Full of trouble
And it bursts
Misunderstood
From the cradle to the grave
First steps to the Hurst
And it hurts
Inside a bubble
Full of trouble
And it bursts
Misunderstood
From the cradle to the grave
First steps to the Hurst
And it hurts

Meant nothing
The things I bought
The time I gave
Our memories
The love we made
All the while all time
You just proved what's on my mind
You must have been bluffing
Because to you
It all ment nothing
The time I gave
Our memories
The love we made
All the while all time
You just proved what's on my mind
You must have been bluffing
Because to you
It all ment nothing
