Bara Psych Ward I
I recline in this desolate chamber, reflecting upon my existence—
A recent relapse has left me here; another overdose!
Sirens blaring, chaos ensuing, time moving at a crawl.
Awakened, confined to this bed, adorned in zebra stripes,
Blinded by a dazzling, circular light.
Deja vu consumes me: "I know this place."
The four walls are familiar,
"I'm back in the madhouse."
Emotion evades me,
As I succumb to self-imposed isolation.
This place is loathsome; it evokes no sympathy, remorse, joy, nothing.

The Sound of my Voice
Talk sounding trite, of one who stammers. Stuttering speech a teacher can't reach or alter. Excessive is the theme of repetition of words. Fumble, feeling clumsy, stupid on the spot.Falter, sputter, jabber, pause and repeat then rewind...trying to say it one more time. This is the long drawn out sound of a voice that Stutters. Twisted is the dry lips, stress is the mask one wears and beads of sweat is the workout. Yammering, jammering as the audience heards trying to follow. The whole show presents a see-saw of ups & downs. One sentence spoken takes one hour of a nightmare that clings...

A Friend In Need
In the middle of the city a guy thought it would be a great idea to go and visit a friend
So he went to see him in his office where he was counselling his patients as a psychologist
Now the man was happy to see him and they had some friendly chatter in the office
However when the guy who was visiting wanted to leave
The suggestion was made by the friend to visit his place
While there he changed and picked up bits and pieces of this, that and the other
Later that afternoon they were off to a place in town where they met a group of male friends

Counting sands with sun
One day on a hot afternoon, the sun stood high up at its apex and I stood high in the middle of the desert counting sands and every sand on and under every rock,
The sun asked if it wasn't hot enough for me to hide under a rock,
it asked why I was torturing myself I began to explain as I sat on a rock,
I find myself counting sands, each grain with a meaning for each grain and all the grains represent my feelings for you the rock laughed
One by one as I count the grains the first one signified the way your lips fold back when u smile, bending into a perfect eclipse at...

she left more than scars behind
Some days I hate myself
like my reflection hasn't changed
in 15 years and I'm still the same person
who held all her lies
like they were precious gemstones
that could be compressed
into something honest
with enough time, pressure and love
But she didn't love me
couldn't love me
when she was too busy
chasing more interesting demons
than a quiet lover at home
and then resented me
for chasing my own adventures
Some days it feels like karma
like I'm forever paying for who I am
it's just...

Triggered
four of us teachers were talking
we rarely have time to do that
we never even use the teachers lounge
too busy making copies and calling parents
two of the teachers were male
both admitted their students have seen them cry this year
mine haven't
amazing
i'm a huge effing crybaby
but i've chosen anger instead
it's closer to the surface
a quicker-burning fuel
it doesn't make me feel as deeply
resultingly
"I'M NOT GOING TO YELL!"

.....the Point of it All
.....as time goes on, I realize
just what you mean to me”
and in those waning moments
I close my eyes as not to see
not to feel
nor to dream
don't want to deal with the
saddening, maddening reality
of the specter that lingers in the spaces between
you, him and me......
…...and though I know you wear his ring, his name
and my desires may well be wrong,
bearing pain, ...

A letter I will never send
I didn’t know you until I was 10 in year 6 and all I wanted to do was please
I did that for a while but your anger was a volcano and it erupted
so I switched from please to appease
I listened hard and I tried to become the daughter you acted like you wanted
I got violent just like you I went by your name I got involved in dangerous situations knowing stories of my name would be carried back to you
I thought you would be pleased as I had done what you wanted
instead you took your rage out on me and the damage you caused I would never let you see

Sorrow
Brandy has never been so broken hearted
You became a comedian
And I became a laughing stock
... I honestly have no idea what is going on... I can't stop my mind from getting flooded by thoughts of you
.... My eyes raining tears down my face like a hurricane
... I am in a devastated state
I can't stop the sad songs from playing
I can't stop the love songs from taunt
I couldn't stop you from leaving...
The days seem to get darker the further away I get from you like I'm walking the opposite direction from the light at the end of the tunnel.... ...

Broken
My head is pounding
The noise resounding
My heart is racing
Some sleep I'm chasing
To feel okay
For one whole day
To feel awake
And never break
I can't survive
Or run and hide
From all this pain
This hurricane
Of emotion and headaches
The falling of the snowflakes
The devil creates my prison
The darkness has arisen
The monster inside of me
These chains, I'm never free
Torn apart by life itself
Stuck within my inner hell
I try to dream

Places we've never been
My angel, my life, my entire world, please be with me always, my one and only girl. I love you so deeply, that I know is so true, for there is no one else, my heart beats but you. No matter what happens, you’re always the one, that I want to come home to, I’m yours to have a to hold.
Till death Doo us part. I will always treat you with the most respect you ever had.
