A broken system
Broken families.. dark days
Traumatic experience.. delayed response
Underfunded services.. no help today
Who do you turn to on these dark days
Lost lives.. quiet cries
Murmurs abound.. silent sounds
No money, no gains
You’re out of options
Times are hard.. in or out of court
Everyone’s trying to survive
You’re not important.. just a number on a list
Pressures are mounting
Details disclosed.. confidence breached
Hushed accusations.. walking on eggshells
Disassociate from the situation ...

Thought
Heart laden with hope,
Free from care?
You may then hear it
Whisper: ‘Dare’
Discontent with joy,
Too good to bear?
Heed then the urge:
‘Compare’

Tristesse
I saw an old man
he wore a sailor cap
sat on a bench
near the town's lake
he cried
not understanding
why, he was no longer
young
and a mariner
of the seven seas

Something's missing
100 piece puzzle
With 99 pieces
A dog walker
With no leashes
An island
With no beaches
A peach tree
With no peaches
A truck
With no hitches
A house
With no kitchen
A billionaire
With no riches
An open cut
With no stitches
Students
With no teachers
Halloween
With no witches
Then there's me
And something's missing
With 99 pieces
A dog walker
With no leashes
An island
With no beaches
A peach tree
With no peaches
A truck
With no hitches
A house
With no kitchen
A billionaire
With no riches
An open cut
With no stitches
Students
With no teachers
Halloween
With no witches
Then there's me
And something's missing

Predestined
In the atmosphere of autumn
blooms a quiet death.
The descend whispers,
listen through spoken secrecy of breaths.
The trauma torments optimism,
insulting an identity and crushing a belief.
Still, watch as hope persists
even in the face of ungodly grief.
The chill seeps in,
freezing the earth-shattering emotion.
Weighed down, fingers curled tightly to support,
as fear lurks in and the faith is in remotion.
The laughter is so murderous
it leaves peace unsatisfied.
Echoing small traces among the shadows
where it was...
blooms a quiet death.
The descend whispers,
listen through spoken secrecy of breaths.
The trauma torments optimism,
insulting an identity and crushing a belief.
Still, watch as hope persists
even in the face of ungodly grief.
The chill seeps in,
freezing the earth-shattering emotion.
Weighed down, fingers curled tightly to support,
as fear lurks in and the faith is in remotion.
The laughter is so murderous
it leaves peace unsatisfied.
Echoing small traces among the shadows
where it was...

I can’t cope, no joke
I feel lost, worn down
Smushed into the ground
It’s impossible to turn
This frown upside down
I feel scared and afraid
Running around a maze
Swept up in the madness
Beginning to fade
I’m exhausted, I feel heavy
Like I’m ready
To be buried
Can’t this shit end already?
No hope or dope
Will realign the scope
Of feeling as though
I can actually cope
Smushed into the ground
It’s impossible to turn
This frown upside down
I feel scared and afraid
Running around a maze
Swept up in the madness
Beginning to fade
I’m exhausted, I feel heavy
Like I’m ready
To be buried
Can’t this shit end already?
No hope or dope
Will realign the scope
Of feeling as though
I can actually cope

Inside
Blood trickles my chest.
Knife cutting through the breast.
Feel each bump against my ribs crest.
Runs my guts to my waist.
Across my thighs and trace
Other side back up to my arm release grace.
Heaven won't have me, Hell knows me
The darkness grows were none can see.
Serpents won't let me be.
Faint light headed blood flows well.
Sulfur decay all I can smell.
Another memory as far as I'll tell.

Cracked windows bare life
My self-sabotaging delicacies has never really bothered me.
Seeking validation has never got me far.
My home,is like skin over brittle bones.
Hauntingly,
I remain alone.
