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
seldom
Seldom do I naturally smile these days
Seldom do I agree with the world's ways
Seldom do I feel peace in my head
Seldom do I ever want to get out of bed
Seldom do I find laughter and love
Seldom do I see a sun shining above
Seldom do I ever want to carry on
Seldom are the days when people are missed when there gone
Yet seldom I ever talk
I just keep it locked on and off I walk
Seldom do I agree with the world's ways
Seldom do I feel peace in my head
Seldom do I ever want to get out of bed
Seldom do I find laughter and love
Seldom do I see a sun shining above
Seldom do I ever want to carry on
Seldom are the days when people are missed when there gone
Yet seldom I ever talk
I just keep it locked on and off I walk

long to hold you
That salt that soreness
Never felt such poorness in my heart
Even though it's my fault it poured out in the start
Every colour bleeds into grey
Its been the same since you went away
My eyes bleed my eyes burn my eyes weep
Down my cheeks corrosive tears seep
Out of sight but always in mind
Life's so cruel life's so unkind
Every song on the radio seems sad
Every story on the news is somewhat drab
I long for the one thing to ease the pain
I wait to hold you in my arms again
Never felt such poorness in my heart
Even though it's my fault it poured out in the start
Every colour bleeds into grey
Its been the same since you went away
My eyes bleed my eyes burn my eyes weep
Down my cheeks corrosive tears seep
Out of sight but always in mind
Life's so cruel life's so unkind
Every song on the radio seems sad
Every story on the news is somewhat drab
I long for the one thing to ease the pain
I wait to hold you in my arms again

don't loose it
Like the darkness signifies the absence of light
The night is the end of the day
Fakery dressed in plastic smiles
Using extreme caution in what we say
Discontented with a working wage what backs have been broken to earn
Now a good meal and evening television is all I long for and yearn
Education teaches us to not question the status quo
While we sit back and watch rewards of wealth be reaped by some media hoe
Guess I'll neve be liberated from this freedom
Just granted a longer chain
My only goal now is to keep my mind and try not to go...

call it a day
I wish I could go back and start again knowing what I know now
I could find another way I could find out how
Belittled for not understanding
Mocked for knowing too much
If only I could afford the solitude I could keep away from the likes of such
So many things to bring you down
So many derogatory words
Picking out my negatives in a world that's so absurd
I gage reactions through my observations
Every scenario I see only complications
You slit my wrist until the truth bleeds out
Yet you don't like what I say
Every arrow points towards the...

where I belong
Who's torturing my vodoo doll
Who's lead me a misguided hand
How can you just sit and laugh
How can you not understand
Heads banging against a wall
Heads raging like a storm
Emotions all ripped apart
Emotions tattered and torn
Life seems like a punishment
Life just seems so long
Everyday in disarray
Everyday in search if where I belong
Who's lead me a misguided hand
How can you just sit and laugh
How can you not understand
Heads banging against a wall
Heads raging like a storm
Emotions all ripped apart
Emotions tattered and torn
Life seems like a punishment
Life just seems so long
Everyday in disarray
Everyday in search if where I belong

miss me
Ashes to Ashes
Dust to dust
Laid to rest all our trust
Wishing for some god above
A damaged heart in search of love
Toeing a weak mind along
Smiling to appear strong
All I am suddenly cold
Every day another day old
But when my soul leaves this vessel
Hope to find a comfier place to nestle
Ashes to Ashes
Dust to dust
Every tear turns me to rust
Far to broken to carry on
Will you miss me when I'm gone
Dust to dust
Laid to rest all our trust
Wishing for some god above
A damaged heart in search of love
Toeing a weak mind along
Smiling to appear strong
All I am suddenly cold
Every day another day old
But when my soul leaves this vessel
Hope to find a comfier place to nestle
Ashes to Ashes
Dust to dust
Every tear turns me to rust
Far to broken to carry on
Will you miss me when I'm gone

hazel.eyes
Hazel eyes see through my lies see I'm not ok
You picked me up when I was down and helped me through my day
Your belief in me made me see made me want to live
So I can spend each day with you and all the love you give
Sit with me into the night it's funny how time flies
I see the hours pass away as I'm looking I your hazel eyes
You picked me up when I was down and helped me through my day
Your belief in me made me see made me want to live
So I can spend each day with you and all the love you give
Sit with me into the night it's funny how time flies
I see the hours pass away as I'm looking I your hazel eyes

guess that's fait
I see the paths of those who came before
The ones who rise vs the ones who fall
Everyone's got a master plan
From Mr myagi to daniel San
Like a bag on the breeze
Blowing free or tangled in trees
Out of our hands it seems to me
There's more to life there's got to be
In the end we just fade away
Never to see another day
I often question our whole existence
I sometimes stair into the distance
Guess we are just here to procreate
Then we die having served our fait
The ones who rise vs the ones who fall
Everyone's got a master plan
From Mr myagi to daniel San
Like a bag on the breeze
Blowing free or tangled in trees
Out of our hands it seems to me
There's more to life there's got to be
In the end we just fade away
Never to see another day
I often question our whole existence
I sometimes stair into the distance
Guess we are just here to procreate
Then we die having served our fait

life in vein
If I slit my wrist and wish to die
Would you help me out or continue to lie
If I threw myself infront of your truck
Would you apply the brakes or not give a fuck
If I put my neck up in a noose
Would you pull it tight or set me loose
All the answers I may never know because this weakness I can never show
But there's this thing inside of me this burning curiosity
Do you know I'm a moth to your flame a casualty in your game
Through all the hurt and all the pain I continue to live my life in vein
Would you help me out or continue to lie
If I threw myself infront of your truck
Would you apply the brakes or not give a fuck
If I put my neck up in a noose
Would you pull it tight or set me loose
All the answers I may never know because this weakness I can never show
But there's this thing inside of me this burning curiosity
Do you know I'm a moth to your flame a casualty in your game
Through all the hurt and all the pain I continue to live my life in vein

drownding
I edgily shuffle towards the end of the diving board
Then carelessly and carefree I decide to jump in and do the dive bomb
Splashing everyone looking on
I swam so freely at first like someone had opened a gate
Then around me the water started to coagulate
It fought against my every limb
Suddenly I couldn't swim
The harder I tried the closer I came to the floor
All I could do was try some more
I could feel the air escaping my lungs
Every move I make seems to be wrong
Fighting a battle I'll never win
Seeing my last earthly sights as my chest...

alive again
I thought ide never love again
Thought my heart was cold
Then you came along
You warmed up my soul
And now I can see
Where I wanna be
I wanna live with you for eternity
I sit starring out the window
I watch the cars go by
I sit and whistle along with the birds in the sky
I love how there free
Just how I feel when your with me
If I was like Robin hood then what ide steal ide keep
Ide save it all up for you to sweep you off your feet
Forever wouldn't feel so long and I wouldn't feel so blue
Because ide be happy to live...

left my girl alone in a broken home
I've walked this path before
I thought I'd saw it all
Now I'm wearing different shoes because I'm climbing up the wall
No one to catch when I fall
Back down to reality where money rules cruel
And kids in gangs start forming bands
And evil rules the throne
I left my girl all alone in a broken home
Kamakazi flies fill my eyes
In a place where I try and hide
Everyone's here I want to be on my own
I left my girl all alone in a broken home
I look out my window and see the sun
It reminded me nights still to come
I find the night...
