Misplaced
I think I’ve been
The world around me fits
As if it is wrong skin
Sloughing off
Or crawling deep
Within
To writhe my stomach
Into knots
Of wrong
It hurts
To be misplaced
The world around me fits
As if it is wrong skin
Sloughing off
Or crawling deep
Within
To writhe my stomach
Into knots
Of wrong
It hurts
To be misplaced

Empty
I have
An empty bottle of Mead
And
No-one
To share it with

Lonely
Leave me
On the brink
Never to fall into
Elysia again
Lest you extend
Your hand to me
On the brink
Never to fall into
Elysia again
Lest you extend
Your hand to me

I don’t even know
I drink too much
And hate myself for it
Why are you never home
When I need you?
And hate myself for it
Why are you never home
When I need you?

It never comes
The day is done
While I await
For the morning sun;
It never comes.
While I await
For the morning sun;
It never comes.

defenseless
each line she spoke
helped break me,
her emotions
did not match
my own.
her words, hurtful
in their simplicity
have cut me deeper
than any sharp blade
i have drug across
my flesh.

Waning
Time
Seems to be
Dripping
Like molten wax
From an ever shortening candle
No wick
No wit
A lyrical flame
Flickers
Then
Is snuffed out
To oblivion
As a dustcloud of thought
Is scattered
Then dispersed
Into a void
Of an infinite nothingness

Weary
There is a used,
Withered coat
Hanging in that wardrobe
Holes
Run through it
Marking the sole passage of time
Like that coat
I am exhausted
Time
Has worn me out
And I remain alone,
Sick and tired
Withered coat
Hanging in that wardrobe
Holes
Run through it
Marking the sole passage of time
Like that coat
I am exhausted
Time
Has worn me out
And I remain alone,
Sick and tired

Desperate Ghost
A desperate ghost, /
I scream into the darkness, /
deaf ears do prevail.
I scream into the darkness, /
deaf ears do prevail.

A little of the cold
Came in when you left.
It had to.
