hands~
I recognize you
So delicately
By the sight of your hands
Memories tease my brain
Of fingertips tracing my every curve
I told you I hated them
So you pulled them closer to you
Tangling us into one
To feel every scar
Caused by prior wounds and broken skin
You loved them
I could never wrap my head around that
To be admired for the things that kept me up at night
Violent depictions for me
Were glimpses that made your voice shake
Hips that fit...
So delicately
By the sight of your hands
Memories tease my brain
Of fingertips tracing my every curve
I told you I hated them
So you pulled them closer to you
Tangling us into one
To feel every scar
Caused by prior wounds and broken skin
You loved them
I could never wrap my head around that
To be admired for the things that kept me up at night
Violent depictions for me
Were glimpses that made your voice shake
Hips that fit...

Runaway
So you want to run away, then go, I won’t stop you, you said. I was no older than six or seven. I rose, walked to that door— I knew, somehow, this was not home.
My little brother trailed behind, and I, with stubborn heart, set off to find the parents who’d left us behind. Love was a distant thing, but I was determined to find it, even if they never gave it.
I dragged the dog along, his paws stumbling in the dust. The gate loomed, larger than anything I had ever seen— but I pulled it open, the metal stick unlatching and with it, I felt the surge of freedom. ...

Wish it Would LaSt ...
Can you still feel the glow of the sun on your face ,
Or the warmth of the past in these empty days erased?
Do you know if the stars ever whispered your name,
Or did they fall silent in sorrowful shame?
What’s left of the flame?
When we no longer dance in the rain
When I reach out to touch , but you just a memory or such
Did they teach you to bury the spark in your chest,
A life of memory that rests
Inside the photo of our mind
Trade the wild unknown for a life that’s play through rewind?
Did reflection offer you comfort,...
Or the warmth of the past in these empty days erased?
Do you know if the stars ever whispered your name,
Or did they fall silent in sorrowful shame?
What’s left of the flame?
When we no longer dance in the rain
When I reach out to touch , but you just a memory or such
Did they teach you to bury the spark in your chest,
A life of memory that rests
Inside the photo of our mind
Trade the wild unknown for a life that’s play through rewind?
Did reflection offer you comfort,...

I Found Out Too Late that She Loved Me
I loved Hannah more than I could say,
But I didn’t tell her that I loved her.
I wanted her to see it for herself.
So I came up with an idea that I thought would work.
She read the love poems that I wrote.
The poetic words revealed my true feelings.
She knew that I wrote them for her,
And she realised the depth of my love for her.
I didn’t know that she was in love with me.
She never showed her feelings for me.
Perhaps she tried to attract my attention,
But I was too dumb to realise it.
She wasn’t bold...
But I didn’t tell her that I loved her.
I wanted her to see it for herself.
So I came up with an idea that I thought would work.
She read the love poems that I wrote.
The poetic words revealed my true feelings.
She knew that I wrote them for her,
And she realised the depth of my love for her.
I didn’t know that she was in love with me.
She never showed her feelings for me.
Perhaps she tried to attract my attention,
But I was too dumb to realise it.
She wasn’t bold...

(46) Lost, Lonely & High 01.01.2025 @ 5:56pm
Feeling hopeless once again!
I got some things on my mind.
Still on the run and under the influence!
I aim high just to hit rock bottom.
I confess that I’m still chopping lines.
Without you here, it doesn’t feel right.
I don’t see the point in getting high.
If you’re not here, then why?
Down here missing my little brother
Resentment growing deeper towards my mother
I can’t stand to look in the mirror
I hate pretending like my mind seems clearer
I’m struggling in my life.
All I think about is getting high. ...

*instrumental solo Acoustic**
It must be your eyes, pulling me in
It feels so surreal, like I'm caught again
And I won't deny, I've crossed the line
But it’s not the place, it's not the time
for peace of mind, for peace of mind
Everything’s so loud, then fades away
Now you're close, but you won’t stay
I don’t want this, remember that
I’ll hold the scars, where you left that
I don't want this , remember that
Remember that
Remember that
Don’t let the light fade out
Crimson tides, they crash and shout ...

Gingerbread Man
I don't need whipped cream or frosting to make me sweet.
Neither on my cookies.
Or to make my life sweet.
It's too much sugar for me.
A prince charming just isn't the one I need.
I want a gingerbread man,the one I'll feed.
A gingerbread man,one with frosting.
Candy buttons and chocolate eyes.
A gingerbread man,one full of color.
Make me fly higher,fall harder.
Depends on how you bake him in the oven,and a slice of cake.
A gingerbread man,one that someday will be a father.
A gingerbread man to play...
Neither on my cookies.
Or to make my life sweet.
It's too much sugar for me.
A prince charming just isn't the one I need.
I want a gingerbread man,the one I'll feed.
A gingerbread man,one with frosting.
Candy buttons and chocolate eyes.
A gingerbread man,one full of color.
Make me fly higher,fall harder.
Depends on how you bake him in the oven,and a slice of cake.
A gingerbread man,one that someday will be a father.
A gingerbread man to play...

My Safety
My safe world is a beautiful place...
...where the air smells of cotton candy...
...and all my favorite songs play...
...while I happily dance and spin!
No one shouts and no one cries in my world.
There is no fear of being touched or being beaten.
My world is safe.
My world is my safety.
Only I can can visit MY world...
...for my own safety!
It is deep inside my head...
...and YOU can't see the pretty colors...
...but my world really does exist!
I have visited my world quite often.
I CREATED MY WORLD!...
...where the air smells of cotton candy...
...and all my favorite songs play...
...while I happily dance and spin!
No one shouts and no one cries in my world.
There is no fear of being touched or being beaten.
My world is safe.
My world is my safety.
Only I can can visit MY world...
...for my own safety!
It is deep inside my head...
...and YOU can't see the pretty colors...
...but my world really does exist!
I have visited my world quite often.
I CREATED MY WORLD!...

Just Wait
You’re a devil running through heaven,
Left me tasting flames,
Ashes burned into my eyes.
Love blinded me so,
Locked heart, locked the skies.
Still, I watched you fly.
Angel with a devil’s tail,
Or devil with an angel’s wings
How do I escape you?
A ghost runs through my mind,
Eyes fixed on fading light,
What was our love, but a sick joke?
Just wait, the stars will turn,
One day, the flames won’t burn.
You’ll see the truth in the scars I earned, ...
Left me tasting flames,
Ashes burned into my eyes.
Love blinded me so,
Locked heart, locked the skies.
Still, I watched you fly.
Angel with a devil’s tail,
Or devil with an angel’s wings
How do I escape you?
A ghost runs through my mind,
Eyes fixed on fading light,
What was our love, but a sick joke?
Just wait, the stars will turn,
One day, the flames won’t burn.
You’ll see the truth in the scars I earned, ...

It's Not Gold
Love’s a loaded gun, aimed at my chest,
Pull the trigger, baby, you’re the best.
A kiss like cyanide, sweet to the taste,
But your promises just go to waste.
Your petals fell off, a rose turned to dust,
And I’m choking on the ashes of misplaced trust.
It’s not gold, it’s just lead,
A bullet in the head when I’m feeling dead.
A heart full of holes where nobody knows,
Sinking in the silence, where the story froze.
A silent movie where the actors forgot,
How to love, how to feel, how to give what they’ve got. ...
Pull the trigger, baby, you’re the best.
A kiss like cyanide, sweet to the taste,
But your promises just go to waste.
Your petals fell off, a rose turned to dust,
And I’m choking on the ashes of misplaced trust.
It’s not gold, it’s just lead,
A bullet in the head when I’m feeling dead.
A heart full of holes where nobody knows,
Sinking in the silence, where the story froze.
A silent movie where the actors forgot,
How to love, how to feel, how to give what they’ve got. ...
