Tomorrow will get me again
Tomorrow will get me again
Everything... is closing... iiinnnn
Everything inside is dead
Tomorrow will get me again!!
The death of me
The pain I'm in
From watching you walk awwaaayyy!!!
Trying to... find a way out
To end this all!!!!
But a promise I made
A promise I'll keep 'till the eennndd!!!
Tomorrow will get me again
A life without you
A life full of pain
A life without meaning
The life that I'm leadinggggg
Tomorrow will get me again
Everything... is closing... iiinnn
Everything...
Everything... is closing... iiinnnn
Everything inside is dead
Tomorrow will get me again!!
The death of me
The pain I'm in
From watching you walk awwaaayyy!!!
Trying to... find a way out
To end this all!!!!
But a promise I made
A promise I'll keep 'till the eennndd!!!
Tomorrow will get me again
A life without you
A life full of pain
A life without meaning
The life that I'm leadinggggg
Tomorrow will get me again
Everything... is closing... iiinnn
Everything...

Suicide
I have lately been contemplating taking my life
The question is, how?
I live on the seventh floor with a veranda
The falling is not bad I shudder by the impact
Also, upsetting people.
A shotgun in my mouth blowing my brain out Is too ghastly,
Ernest Hemingway did it shoot himself
Blood and gore all over the place.
A 22-calibre pistol should do it, but I dislike
Weapons.
To take a handful of pills will not do I would
Throw up and sweat profoundly.
I wish there were an injection that made me
Disappear from the...

Uncle EniGMA
My Uncle Warren was a rabbit hole of a man
Full of seep dark secrets of which were unspoken
Questions about him gleaned no family answers
Eighty two he died alone in a rundown plantation mansion
Out of curiosity I went to the funeral: No one else was there
Well apart from the old priest and a grave digger bent over his spade
I couldn't help but notice the grave diggers dirty craggy grin
And the old priest smelling of bathtub gin
Pulpit pronouncements, life style denouncements
Prayers for the dead's unlikely salvation
The grave digger's grin...

The Awaited Day
The day
I've been waiting
For has finally
Arrived
I lay there
On the floor
With the bloody knife
Gasping for air
Clinging to my last breath
Deaths hand
Reaches for me
Whispering
"You done your best.
Come now. It's time leave with me".
My life was hopeless
I wanted to flee
Throwing myself
Away into the arms
Of death
For eternity
Was my answer
I thought
It seemed
I closed my eyes
Wondering where I belong
Questioning myself
'Is this what
I really wanted...

Life is Absurd
Am I condemned to wander aimlessly through life?
This grand illusion masks the pain I feel inside.
Beyond the den of emptiness, my soul has disengaged.
Toiling through the darkness for a solitary wage.
The anchor lost as sullen dreams are slowly cast adrift.
This introverted voyage screams a love that I resist.
The currency of worthless life is slowly running dry;
Corrupted by the demons which plague my shallow mind.
This grand illusion masks the pain I feel inside.
Beyond the den of emptiness, my soul has disengaged.
Toiling through the darkness for a solitary wage.
The anchor lost as sullen dreams are slowly cast adrift.
This introverted voyage screams a love that I resist.
The currency of worthless life is slowly running dry;
Corrupted by the demons which plague my shallow mind.

Xenophobia
Xenophobia
Fear seethed in reluctance,
Rinsed in the stream of laziness,
Conception donating annoyance,
Aggression and guts embroidered with thoughtlessness.
Offspring set for war,
Migrants to fall by his sword.
Vice versa, the crescendo swings,
As revenge inflects its melody.
Wails seconded by wrath,
Atmosphere littered with emotions,
Confetti of joy by cowardice drawn,
Contracts into a span, then destruction.
If fear is love and choice, zeal.
War'll be peace, and xenophobia,...

Soft Kill
I've never been a hard hitter
I'm more of a soft killer
Whirling in your drink
Swimming in your blood stream
Unheard, unseen
A well reasoned fallacy
Obfuscates
Any trace of my fatality
Dancing my way
Through your veins
Entranced, I sway
You into the grave
I'm more of a soft killer
Whirling in your drink
Swimming in your blood stream
Unheard, unseen
A well reasoned fallacy
Obfuscates
Any trace of my fatality
Dancing my way
Through your veins
Entranced, I sway
You into the grave

Wanker’s Inn
He plopped out of
The womb and promptly
Drank himself to death
He was found in a
Rubble of used JUUL
Pods and wet cigarettes
Vodka bottles and
Opioids in my
Teacup
DNA samples that
Didn’t match the
Suspect
I think God is the
Best opiate
Fingers that fell
Sick before they
Could actually
Touch it
Weep because you
Got another violator
Off the street
Telling your story to
Someone that finally
Understands
I am decrepit
...

Master of Disguise
She smiles. She laughs.
She aches. She cries.
No one sees the pain behind her eyes, she's become a master of disguise.
The birth of her heart lies in a hospital bed, waiting to be pronounced dead.
Pale Death waits for none, and mourns not a single one.
She fights and cries alone inside, all the while having no one to confide.
She pleads with God, and Death to spare the life within the sterile walls, but neither hear her calls.
She sits and waits to hear the news, with a smile, she's seen the clues.
Already said her goodbyes.
She's become a...

cheers
some deaths are
sudden
like an old screen
door slamming
shut on a hot
summer's
evening
some deaths are
long
like waiting on the
arrival of a dark
Christmas whose
gift can never
be returned
whichever one
comes your
way
here's to you
and the brave
life that you
have led
salude
sudden
