Sinking
Sinking
I feel like I am drowning
Sinking further every day
I want to reach my hand out
But it’s best to push away
I feel that if I hold you
I’ll drag you into the abyss
It’s dark here and it’s lonely
And for you, I don’t want this
You struggle as I let you go
You fight me to hold on
I don’t think that it’s meant for you
This place, you don’t belong
I’ve tried to share my pain with you
But it just brings you down
I’m sorry that you feel that way
But you’re why I’m still around
...
I feel like I am drowning
Sinking further every day
I want to reach my hand out
But it’s best to push away
I feel that if I hold you
I’ll drag you into the abyss
It’s dark here and it’s lonely
And for you, I don’t want this
You struggle as I let you go
You fight me to hold on
I don’t think that it’s meant for you
This place, you don’t belong
I’ve tried to share my pain with you
But it just brings you down
I’m sorry that you feel that way
But you’re why I’m still around

A Fool?
still
no guarantees
when hearts fall
love's a
cruel mistress
sometimes
photagraphic
memory
keeps repeating
framed through
rose tinted
lenses
romantic notions
wrapped in
chocolate
melts under
fierce
rejection
unrequitted
heartche
stabs deeper
at wounds
already
hidden there
whiskey
never drowns
these sorrows
rubber ball heart
bounces on
regardless
waiting for
attitude
changing
is...

The Hole
There’s a hole
Inside my soul
I’ve never told
So you don’t know
And it gets bigger every day
Ever since you walked away
I wanna say I want you back
I wanna say your love I lack
But I don’t want relationships
Cause of you I don’t want shit
I’m happier in my new hell
Did you know I wasn’t well?
Did you think I was a burden?
I’m not sure, I’m not quite certain
When you came into my life
I thought perhaps, this could be right
I wanted us to have a chance
So I gave in...
Inside my soul

I’m happier in my new hell
Did you know I wasn’t well?

SWING
I had no idea how much you could miss someone. I mean from the morning until the dark. How you lost your happy place in the park someone took your swing and you're middle aged and acting out like you are aged five having a full-blown tantrum. Except a broken heart isn't playing games it feels like it is digging your own grave, but you are theoretically alive. Living on the outside but dying on the inside. It's hard to see the old routines when your heart high jacks your mind. You're a hostage and the taker but you can't find the negotiator.

The Scream
There’s a scream inside of each of us
You release it just one time
It comes out when your heart breaks
And this scream will break your mind
It comes from deep within you
Hidden deep inside your soul
It’s dormant while you smile
I hope this scream you’ll never know
The sound is dark and primal
It will shake the walls around you
It’s like you’ve met a demon
And the devil he has found you
And once this scream escapes you
Consider this your end
The scream it kills a part of you
You’ll never be the same...
You release it just one time
It comes out when your heart breaks
And this scream will break your mind
It comes from deep within you
Hidden deep inside your soul
It’s dormant while you smile
I hope this scream you’ll never know
The sound is dark and primal
It will shake the walls around you
It’s like you’ve met a demon
And the devil he has found you
And once this scream escapes you
Consider this your end
The scream it kills a part of you
You’ll never be the same...

Pick Me Up
I’ve been down lately
sorry I haven’t been
around lately
checked out mentally
letting shit get to me
feeling like
everything is out, to get to me
pick me up
cos i’m falling
pick me up
and i’m sorry to keep calling
to unload my shit on you
but know that
you can do the same to me too
i’ll be there
pick me up
because right now
i’m at my lowest
and i’m hoping that
no one will notice
but from the mud
i will grow
like the lotus
from the pain
i will rise from the ashes...

Forgotten
I’m drinking on a Wednesday
And it isn’t even noon
I try to make the hurt go away
Want to fly over the moon
Each morning when I wake up
This shit starts up again
When the hurting stop?
When will this torture end?
When will I forget what you did?
Replay it all the time
Betrayal that I guess I earned
Deserved it for the lies
Karma found its way to me
And now I have to pay
Pay the price for evil deeds
I pay it every day
I know that I don’t deserve you
Or all you put me through
I...
And it isn’t even noon
I try to make the hurt go away
Want to fly over the moon
Each morning when I wake up
This shit starts up again
When the hurting stop?
When will this torture end?
When will I forget what you did?
Replay it all the time
Betrayal that I guess I earned
Deserved it for the lies
Karma found its way to me
And now I have to pay
Pay the price for evil deeds

I know that I don’t deserve you
Or all you put me through

Hiding My Pain
Hiding My Pain
I thought that I could let it go
This pain I have inside
I thought I could release it all
Relief to a crazed mind
I thought in time it’d go away
Just fade like memories
This pain is changing who I am
Not who I used to be
I miss when smiles came with ease
Cause now they just feel forced
I miss the way I loved freely
To trust is now a curse
I feel that I am juggling me
The old one with the new
Pretending that I am okay
This lie is now my truth
The secrets they keep...
I thought that I could let it go
This pain I have inside
I thought I could release it all
Relief to a crazed mind
I thought in time it’d go away
Just fade like memories
This pain is changing who I am
Not who I used to be
I miss when smiles came with ease
Cause now they just feel forced
I miss the way I loved freely
To trust is now a curse
I feel that I am juggling me
The old one with the new
Pretending that I am okay
This lie is now my truth
The secrets they keep...

Forever Worn
Love when it slips through, your fingers. you are left with a discarded cardigan. Its seen better days. It has been worn draped from shoulder's who never felt the weight of the world as it was shared and cared for with a label of delicacy and fibres that withstood the test of durability. A double-knit pearl one knit two with a tight stitch which was entwined. You never realised that years down the line it was exchangeable.
Now your favourite is demoted in an infrastructural remodel. It doesn't seem to meet the new guidelines it’s not considered to be a classic staple piece it...

Fix Me
Fix Me
I really can’t get mad at you
That’s something I can’t do
My anger lasts for seconds
Especially with you
I’m trying to be sane
Trying to fix my mental health
Trying to be who you want
I’m becoming someone else
I’ve lost my whole identity
I’ve lost the will to live
But I have to move on everyday
For me and for the kids
Give me a few days to deal
To process who I am
To realize my potential
I’m praying for a plan
I know we’re in a rocky place
I guess I feel it too ...
