lcr
i want to take myself away,
crossing boundaries that block my way,
i want to see people that exude humanity,
who shout out ideas.
i want to scream at the piercing wind,
shed my reptilian skin,
jump through the bottomless endless drifts
and soar, explore, the constant shift,
lusts, contradictions and risks.
crossing boundaries that block my way,
i want to see people that exude humanity,

a baby lost
see the calendar slip by,
fuck dates, days, hours and time,
the experience, adventure to a 15yo death,
fifteen means nothing and nothing's less
to a life full of sense and sound,
a baby dead, never born, never found
but to feel, to see, to love, to cry,
to find, to lose, to say goodbye.
living for hours, living for days,
no one has an age.

draw a line
learn how to draw a fucking line
and learn how to draw it well,
draw the curtain on another life -
becomes another story to tell.
know when the fairytale's over,
happily ever after again,
once upon a time all over,
everything begins and ends
and when you draw that line
just take and leave,
love and leave, easy come and go,
floating aimlessly like a cloud.
and learn how to draw it well,
draw the curtain on another life -
becomes another story to tell.

happily ever after again,

just take and leave,

vow of silence
i'm taking a vow of silence,
more like a vocal disappearance,
my words are lost on the wind of the things i've said,
the words that bled through the holes in my head,
now nothing to say, i'm an outsider.

water of love
babe, i couldn't love one like you,
your love is like an ocean,
mine is more of sewage inlet
on a housing estate in croydon.

whisky
the darkest thing in a secret,
no secret to reveal,
the hidden depths of murky waters,
no stick with which to feel
the probing wonder of a mind away
from other thoughts, from other planes,
a higher level of existence.
secrets unrevealed.
then the honesty of an open mind,
unlocked, unclosed, unwritten
but said through bars that keep thoughts in
and reveal to external witness
through bars of metal
erected in the haste of a little thought night.
no secrets to reveal.
behind these walls and curtains,
behind these deadlocked...
no secret to reveal,
the hidden depths of murky waters,
no stick with which to feel
the probing wonder of a mind away
from other thoughts, from other planes,
a higher level of existence.
secrets unrevealed.
then the honesty of an open mind,
unlocked, unclosed, unwritten
but said through bars that keep thoughts in
and reveal to external witness
through bars of metal
erected in the haste of a little thought night.
no secrets to reveal.
behind these walls and curtains,

break
i like to look to the distance
across wide and far reaching vistas,
to provide perspective of space and time
and a chance to consider existence.
i look to the distance as a chance of escape
across rolling hills and horizons of haze,
oppurtunities to stretch existence out
along the infinite paths to take.
the dream to pack my bag and walk,
travel the world and back with my thoughts
on a journey of adventure and discovery,
a wander to planes unexplored.
to get lost - a deliberate loss -
of the weight that holds me down,...
across wide and far reaching vistas,
to provide perspective of space and time
and a chance to consider existence.

walking home like a stone
the touch of the rain on the skin
on the cool summer night
touches a place in my mind that i'd never seen before
but i knew was there.
opens the world to a new perception,
a love beyond existence
and the dry hunger for the missing life,
the thirst for the missing time.
a cool wind felt on the rain on the skin
touches a place within
so protected and safe,
hidden away
ina place full of sense and sound,
far beyond but so close
through choice and decision,
through forks on roads,
by destiny's fate,
fate's options,...

love's confusion
one aspect of love and beauty
that i still find rather confusing
how she said that she knew me
when i didn't even know myself.

plan c
no touch to a songbird's skin,
thatWAS a song about love,
about boxing it up and stamping it down
and allowing time take its leave.
but there is no songbird not to fall in love with,
no angel to love supress
so even when i try not to love someone
still no one appears on the canvas of love.
plan c is coming into being,
disregarded with the a and the b,
nothing's worked on wasted time,
what is plan c?

love. or. vaginal. emotion.
so love - i started to believe fora second there
that it's some sort of miracle to touch your soul
but maybe it's just a word invented by poets
when their depression lifts as they grow wise and old.
no extraordinary transworldly emotions,
no goal that we have to attain,
if we try a little less to love so much
maybe we'll a lot less hate.
so to abandon the search for some worldly love,
for this human love of marriage, mortgage,
sunday morning telegraph
will free my body, mind and soul for adventure
to find passion, experience, laugh,...

forlorn
forlorn for love, for lone, for luck,
for nothing comes my way
so i'll go my own way and find it for me,
living for another day [mistake],
living for the now today.
for nothing comes my way
so i'll go my own way and find it for me,
living for another day [mistake],
