Life

He sits on the side of his bed his mind is a mess.As he struggles to catch his breath he takes hit off his inhaler. He lights a cigarette coughs ,his old girl laying next to him he thinks to himself he’s going to miss her wen she’s gone she’s 12 with a bad heart it makes him tear up .Hes had to much loss his vision all of a sudden gets bleary then he starts seeing double he cry’s out but no sound comes from his mouth.Afew minutes later it passes this on top of the pneumonia he’s been fighting off scares him he stairs at wall his head throbbing the stress of all the recent loss n changes in...

Life

Frustration exhaustion,delusion confusion,happy sad,good bad,hello goodbye,no don't cry for all living things must die.Coffee tea,lemons limes,truth lies,joy pain,never quit even though your efforts might be in vain.Yellow blue,dog cat,since I'm writing again my mind might be going out of wack.The bird flies,the crow cries,the I's dotted,the T's crossed,sometimes people don't even realize that they are lost.Empathic souls the wailing of a blues guitar,sipping hot tea,talking to the voices He hears in his head.Fret not little one don't let the words of others corrupt the vision of the world...

under sedation

He lies there in the bed tubes and wires down his throat and affixed to his body and head . They keep him under left alone with the angels and demons that roam wild as he sleeps. When its time for the tests they try and slightly try to wake him but there is not a light in the eyes staring from his head. The eyes show  desolation despair and fear. He doesn't understand who what why and where . SO he lies there fist clenched trying to resist .They change his meds put him deep back under leaving him once again to explore the deep and hidden closets and recesses in his head. They let the new meds...

why be so afraid

Why be so afraid?

the reapers touch is just as dark

eventually we have no time for happiness , anyway

save your happiness for tomorrow

and today we'll drown in tears

as it's the beginning of an end

it's a funeral!

a funeral!

for us all!

this night has a moon like an adorned skull

that watches on our deep sleep

the dripping dark describe in black

the burial ground of memories

with souls left in shards

in and out of the way, spot my skull

a rouge horror...

alone ?

(My eyes are cold,
My heart closed.
My mind confused,
It's been too long since I've felt this pain.
Wishing for everything to make sense,
Wishing to forget everything.
Or make it all right.
I can't go on this confused,
I can't go on this unhappy.
I can't continue being this alone.
What am I supposed to do?
Will it hurt all over again?
SHould I open my heart back up,
Or leave my doors closed.
Save myself the pain,
Save myself the hurt.
Save myself the torment of losing it all over again.
i love u so much shelley kay please...
