The Storm Outside & Inside
The rain tickles the windows.
Like the stroking of a witches broom.
Scratching & clawing while i sat.
Contemplation like St Jerome.
The sound became a lashing.
Wind grew into a fierce howling.
Somehow it got inside my head.
Whistling about my chimmley pots.
Gusts & noise rose to a fever pitch.
I thought I was going insane.
It's only the wind and the rain.
I'm warm and safe indoors.
I wake up several time a night.
I sense This raging storm wind howling.
Each and every awaking.
Time is slowing down...
Like the stroking of a witches broom.
Scratching & clawing while i sat.
Contemplation like St Jerome.
The sound became a lashing.
Wind grew into a fierce howling.
Somehow it got inside my head.
Whistling about my chimmley pots.
Gusts & noise rose to a fever pitch.
I thought I was going insane.
It's only the wind and the rain.
I'm warm and safe indoors.
I wake up several time a night.
I sense This raging storm wind howling.
Each and every awaking.
Time is slowing down...

Nullity knows my Name.....
I am weightless,
adrift in a silence so deep
it no longer feels like silence at all.
It is a hum, a whisper, a presence—
something ancient, something endless,
something that knows me too well.
I think it has always been here,
waiting beneath my skin,
behind my eyes,
in the spaces where feeling
used to live.
I do not hurt.
I do not ache.
I am nothing.
And the nothingness knows it.
It watches,
folding itself around me,
pulling me deeper,
closer,
until I cannot tell
where I...
adrift in a silence so deep
it no longer feels like silence at all.
It is a hum, a whisper, a presence—
something ancient, something endless,
something that knows me too well.
I think it has always been here,
waiting beneath my skin,
behind my eyes,
in the spaces where feeling
used to live.
I do not hurt.
I do not ache.
I am nothing.
And the nothingness knows it.

No Title.
It's so funny how you think you can see me
But I bleed before a crowd
They wade through my blood
Blame it on the flood
I am unseen
As they walk through me
I am a ghost
In the host of dead believers
But I bleed before a crowd
They wade through my blood
Blame it on the flood
I am unseen
As they walk through me
I am a ghost
In the host of dead believers

This Feeling
I...
am a ghost,
inhabiting these brittle bones,
wearing a suit of armour made from flesh and skin,
though it's not much good as armour.
Doesn't stop the bullets that shoot from tongues around you,
and it does naught to protect the mind.
Spinning clockwise in a counter-clockwise world around me?
That's me.
I'm lost,
somewhere between point A and point B I slip into non-existence.
I glide through a crowd like a shadow,
unnoticed,
unacknowledged.
I am the sum of all the shards of my shattered...

Grey
In the midst of all this grey
I'm growing colder every day
Feeling smaller than before
Don't know what I'm living for
I am lost in endless crowd
Never seen and never found
Nameless face in joyless place
Just a body taking space
Innocence has taken flight
Along with all I thought was right
I am losing sight of light
Lose myself in endless night
Robbed of comfort, stolen truth
Memory scrambled and confused
Forgotten love from long ago
You'll forget me too, I know
Life is pain and death's...
I'm growing colder every day
Feeling smaller than before
Don't know what I'm living for
I am lost in endless crowd
Never seen and never found
Nameless face in joyless place
Just a body taking space
Innocence has taken flight
Along with all I thought was right
I am losing sight of light
Lose myself in endless night
Robbed of comfort, stolen truth
Memory scrambled and confused
Forgotten love from long ago
You'll forget me too, I know
Life is pain and death's...

I Saw You In My Dreams Last Night...
I SAW YOU IN MY DREAMS AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SO MANY MONTHS, AND NOW I'M RIGHT BACK WHERE I WAS
THE NIGHT THAT YOU BROKE EVERY TEENAGE VOW WE MADE
THE NIGHT THAT KILLED THE BOY THAT YOU ONCE CLAIMED TO LOVE
THE NIGHT THAT SAW ME RELAPSE ON EVERYTHING I COULD GET MY SHAKING HANDS ON,
THE NIGHT THAT SAW THOSE SAME HANDS END UP COVERED AND CRUSTED IN MY OWN FUCKING BLOOD..
I SAW YOU IN MY DREAMS AGAIN.. AND IT'S BROUGHT ME BACK TO TEARS BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH I KNOW THAT IT WAS ALL JUST IN MY HEAD,
EVERY SECOND FELT SO REAL
I SWEAR TO GXD MY TOUCHSTARVED...
THE NIGHT THAT YOU BROKE EVERY TEENAGE VOW WE MADE

TIME
After making her fall to her knees
Ignoring her just coz you could
It doesn’t feel very nice it slowly
cuts her up . Her self esteem is
dissected just because she felt
to much . Now after her heart
ended up in her feet and her
mind had jogged round the block
a few times chasing dreams and
the elusive why? . She ended up
exhausted and now she has the
energy for only thinking about
herself . Your name fading
amongst the pain and your face
a shadow she can’t see your eyes
anymore. With suffering comes...

Ashes In My Lungs
I fell to the edge, thought I’d disappear,
But I woke to the sound of my hollow fear.
The void let me stay, didn’t set me free,
Now I’m chained to the ghost of who I used to be.
The mirror’s a stranger, the scars don’t fade,
Every breath feels like a mistake I made.
I can’t find the fire, I can’t feel the pain,
Just this aching silence screaming in my veins.
Ashes in my lungs, I’m choking on the air,
A heartbeat without meaning, a body I can’t bear.
I tried to run, but the weight won’t go,
Now I’m lost in a life I don’t want...
But I woke to the sound of my hollow fear.
The void let me stay, didn’t set me free,
Now I’m chained to the ghost of who I used to be.
The mirror’s a stranger, the scars don’t fade,
Every breath feels like a mistake I made.
I can’t find the fire, I can’t feel the pain,
Just this aching silence screaming in my veins.
Ashes in my lungs, I’m choking on the air,
A heartbeat without meaning, a body I can’t bear.
I tried to run, but the weight won’t go,
Now I’m lost in a life I don’t want...

If I Could Stay
I can feel you slipping, and I’m terrified,
Trying to hold on, but I’m paralyzed.
How do I save you when I’m breaking too?
I’m a storm, but you’re the quiet truth.
I see the weight you’re trying to bear,
And I’m afraid I’ll leave you there.
I’m just a ghost with nothing to give,
But for you, I’d learn to live.
If I could stay, I’d never leave,
I’d take your pain, make you believe.
But I’m fading fast, I’m burning out,
I can’t save you while I drown.
But still, I’d try, I swear I’d fight—
If I could stay, I’d make it...
Trying to hold on, but I’m paralyzed.
How do I save you when I’m breaking too?
I’m a storm, but you’re the quiet truth.
I see the weight you’re trying to bear,
And I’m afraid I’ll leave you there.
I’m just a ghost with nothing to give,
But for you, I’d learn to live.
If I could stay, I’d never leave,
I’d take your pain, make you believe.
But I’m fading fast, I’m burning out,
I can’t save you while I drown.
But still, I’d try, I swear I’d fight—
If I could stay, I’d make it...

Ghost In A Shell
My body a cardboard box
Can't take another flame of love
I'll burn up in flames, would that be a shock?
My soul can escape to retire above
Empty carcass of my soul
Broken parts and brittle bones
Nothing left to feel inside
Nothing that I feel inside
Sticks and stone may break my bones
But words can do no more
'Cause after all this hell
I'm just a ghost in a shell
Maybe I just need some help
Should I wanna get well, get well?
I don't feel unhealthy, don't feel myself
I'm fading away, it's my personal...
Can't take another flame of love
I'll burn up in flames, would that be a shock?
My soul can escape to retire above
Empty carcass of my soul
Broken parts and brittle bones
Nothing left to feel inside
Nothing that I feel inside
Sticks and stone may break my bones
But words can do no more
'Cause after all this hell
I'm just a ghost in a shell
Maybe I just need some help
Should I wanna get well, get well?
I don't feel unhealthy, don't feel myself
I'm fading away, it's my personal...

hostages
Hostages
We read that three women held by Hamas have been freed and looked to be in good health
The British TV and the press showed happy people in Israel as most of the reporting was done with an Israeli slant
Of the Palestinians held hostage by Israel without trial, their suffering is overlooked but reports tell of house raids of the freed Palestinians in their homes
What we are seeing from the British covering
Of the debacle is blatant racism the Arab struggle is of no interest to the British
We wait for fabricated story how women were
Subjected to...

part of the crowd
let me
hurry
and rush
uptown,
let me
become
part of
the crowd,
it's lonely
being
just one.
