Echoes of You
Your ghost hides in corners of our wrinkled sheets
reaching out transparent hands to grasp at my foolishness.
I've never enjoyed swimming naked in guilt's sea -
It leaves me dripping remorse.
It seems, death's formidable grip can trump a full hand
of indifference every time.
The mundane, repetitious days of our existence
held me in perspective as one
too ambivalent to shake his disembodied shoulders.
The scent of your demise to me seemed innocuous -
fleeting, and unable to bloom;
But, flowers - I've...
reaching out transparent hands to grasp at my foolishness.
I've never enjoyed swimming naked in guilt's sea -
It leaves me dripping remorse.
It seems, death's formidable grip can trump a full hand

Frugal Times
pass the tick tock
of wall clock like geckos
clinging tight on bamboo walls
it's face indifferent
looked at it everytime
thinking it ought to stop
just a tiny little pause
to allow looking back
to amend what was
mistakes made trundled back
could've not said yes
answered that one phone call
maybe take a different route
no hurry to attain breasts
just enjoy the bird calls
or the babbling brooks
could've made dresses
out of the blue sky
slippers from knitted
weeds, crowns of...

Force Majeure Of The Heart
Lies
at one time
tasted like the sunset.
Now,
the rusting horizon somehow has legs,
lumbers through our minds on iron stilts,
wading past the flood of memory
like tsunami-resistant dinosaurs.
For here,
huddled under the treacherous canopy of poetic awareness,
there is only the bone-filling momentum of the past,
arcing across the sky of ourselves like fiery skidmarks.
So we ignite,
and burn with the fierceness of fascination,
dancing jubilantly in erratic I-don’t-give-a-fuck motions
that ring out like...

Sweet lies
I've loved you to the best of my ability
I don't deserve such dishonesty
No - not like this!
As picture perfect memories pierce my soul
Who am I to not be deceived
I wish I could walk away - GO
Or maybe you should be the one to leave
You put me on a pedestal
A love that's for show
Your actions were out of control
I'd rather have you say goodbye
Then break this heart of mine
With your sweet lies

Shhhh It'll Be Alright
Somebody hold me.....
Just.....hold me
I'm so scared
So alone.....
Everything is a struggle these days.....
Slowly passing
Trying to wipe all the healing tears away.....
I've become so lost
Things feel so bad.....
I don't know what to do with myself
I'm so scared.....
And so sad.....
I just want to be held.....
Please someone hold me.....
Tell me it will all be alright.....
shshhhh me to sleep
And sing a lullaby
I'm hurting so deep
VERY deep deep inside.....
There's no escape...
Just.....hold me
I'm so scared
So alone.....
Everything is a struggle these days.....
Slowly passing
Trying to wipe all the healing tears away.....
I've become so lost
Things feel so bad.....
I don't know what to do with myself
I'm so scared.....
And so sad.....
I just want to be held.....
Please someone hold me.....
Tell me it will all be alright.....
shshhhh me to sleep
And sing a lullaby
I'm hurting so deep
VERY deep deep inside.....
There's no escape...

Proving me Wrong
You prove me so wrong
Each and everytime
Pullin bullshit moves
Sayin you're mine
Sneakin around
I know your kind
Thinkin I'll fall for
Your dumb ass lines
Telling me I'm the one
Who's doin wrong
Go on go on
You're making it easy
To let your ass go
I'll find another
Go get yourself a ho
And while you're out there
I just want you to know
You did me a favor
When you let me go
Each and everytime
Pullin bullshit moves
Sayin you're mine
Sneakin around
I know your kind
Thinkin I'll fall for
Your dumb ass lines
Telling me I'm the one
Who's doin wrong
Go on go on
You're making it easy
To let your ass go
I'll find another
Go get yourself a ho
And while you're out there
I just want you to know
You did me a favor
When you let me go

Musings of a Bitter Man 4
I stare into the the light refracting in step with chaos, glass walls such a pretty prison
My eyes watching the last drop of gin change colors in the twilight of another holy hangover
Dark circles encroach my eyes and darker cycles haunt my life
The path of least resistance always led me to the verge of ruin
Eat. Fuck. Sleep.
Drink. Fuck. Sleep.
In my times of darkness I never was alone
Shadows linger to my person and the voice of ruin always greets my liver warm
Scarred tissues and souls
Glass and whores
Empty...
My eyes watching the last drop of gin change colors in the twilight of another holy hangover
Dark circles encroach my eyes and darker cycles haunt my life
The path of least resistance always led me to the verge of ruin
Eat. Fuck. Sleep.
Drink. Fuck. Sleep.
In my times of darkness I never was alone
Shadows linger to my person and the voice of ruin always greets my liver warm
Scarred tissues and souls
Glass and whores
Empty...

Meant To
I loved words
more than the woman
who inspired me to write them.**
Embraced
the tragic beauty
of every letter like
a sunset with no horizon;
each line becoming an
immortalized effigy
of us
our happiness
our uncertainties
our dreams.
Ink strokes mirrored
the universe in her eyes
and the thumping quasar
beneath her breast.
So obsessed
with written memories,
I squandered opportunities
to truly decipher the intricacies
of
her flesh
...

Thoughts
streams of thoughts
hits consciousness
a deluge akin
half written notes
cascading recollection
of past encounters
of people met
held and precious
letting go and leaving
after a tantrumed goodbye
or tearful farewell
before freshly dug soil
tapestry of colours
woven from lessons
looked at again
pondered upon
sadly or in amusement
depending on what's seen
In my thoughts
I wish I met you
travelling down the path
of life, riding destiny
living, loving, laughing ...

Love Hurts
Your silence filled the space between us
I felt dejected as I walked away
You'd destroyed my feelings
My heart was hurting
Ripped in two
We were so unhappy
Dragged down by bitterness
dispirited and dejected
Saddened by our failure
Did we still love each other ?
Were our hearts too battered
By our own hand
Could we walk away
Or talk through our woes
And resurrect our love?
I felt dejected as I walked away
You'd destroyed my feelings
My heart was hurting
Ripped in two
We were so unhappy
Dragged down by bitterness
dispirited and dejected
Saddened by our failure
Did we still love each other ?
Were our hearts too battered
By our own hand
Could we walk away
Or talk through our woes
And resurrect our love?

my tragic, solo love story
I love you. No, no I am in love with you and I have been for…a while. And I guess the timing has just been a little bit off. Like if the earth’s axis was tilted at just a hundredth of a degree more, we could have been together all this time. See, you were taken when we met. And last summer when I realized I was in love with you, you were available, but I was too scared. I didn’t even know I was capable of loving a girl, and that scared the hell out of me. So I pushed those feelings so deep down that they tore my insides apart. But I can love a girl and that girl was—is—you. And now, when I’m...

Buyers Remorse
I’ve spent my money on a stupid thing
So now I feel of course
That sting that a dumb purchase will bring;
The infamous Buyers Remorse
I wasted my cash on a fake moustache
Cos’ I thought it would be hot
But I ended up throwing it in the trash
For disapproval was all I got
I bought it from a shop on eBay
Who won’t accept my return
“All sales are final” Is what they say
Which makes my anger burn
It looked completely different
Than it did in the photograph
I thought it’d make me a dapper gent ...
