My Mental Movie House
As I lay awake writing this, whispers encompass my thoughts
Scenes of the past reel like a movie, in an empty theater
What have I done?
What will I do?
What can I do?
At the time, I believed I was right
You can't fault the heart for proposing its truths
So just stop already, I'm sick of the rebuking and the torment
I have tried time and time again to reconcile, but what have you done?
Condemned my actions when you were the one who asked for them
I will no longer be a pawn in this pointless game
You did what you wanted, and...

Silent, The Day After
Two Years Earlier, Gavin
I wasn't sure what had hit me when I woke to the sound of the gong in the morning. Let's go through the list. Hangover, big and ugly. Sore throat, the shivers. Rubbish party on an abandoned fairground last night...a disagreement with Terence Harlesden's son Scott...rain and wind and a wild sea. And after all that, the waitress with the honey-blonde hair crying in the hut in the Remembrance Garden, resting her head on my shoulder. We'd got a bit intimate, hadn't we? Well, intimate for two people who'd never met.
The gong sounded again and a...

A perfect fit .
Love really is an oxymoron .It can make your heart sing but also make your throat bone
dry and not one note can float by . It’s a million different things all at the same time. We don’t feel whole without it but half of
us doubt it . It’s a shape shifter in different
versions and sizes and we wait for it to settle and be still . Hoping that my trousers match your shirt and the cut is divine, a perfect fit skimming us both in a eco cotton with golden threads that has fibres made for durability. A real classic piece that the years can’t disagree on as it becomes your staple...

Cinder Block Castle
I was taught by my father
How to build a fortress
A Cinder Block Castle
With high heartless walls
Where I play scratched records
On the tip of my flawed claws
Hoping for different endings
My insanity was given birth
Seeping into the concrete
Blooming poisonous flowers
A masquerade of nightshade
Herb veins of Spearmint
The color of vibrant jade
Tempting men to climb
Hand over suicidal hand
Trigger fingers shaped like bullets
Digging into the outdoor mortar
Stirring...

Found & Lost
it's just a step away
from my mind
to my hand
it's just a light behind
the eyes you've taken too kind
god's not absent
just looking the other way
still might be good
if you decided to pray
we're not leaving you
just abandoning you
to the you you deserve
the only love you've ever served
it's just a step away
from my mind
to my hand
it's just a light behind
the eyes you've taken too kind
i'm the devil with a halo
you would hesitate but still allow
to come into your home ...

Carefully Irrational
My angel wears no halo
Resembling, more closely, a crown of thorns
Stabbing deeper every day
She cries out to me
But I'm too busy
Fighting off the ones
Pounding in the nails
Where do I begin
To make you understand?
It's not the broken road behind you
It's the fact that you're still pressing on
My angel wears no halo
Doesn't need light to shine
Flash forward through the years
Empty, save our hands clamped together
Standing ever vigilant
Guarding each other
In the stead of absent angels
Just...

certainity
It is very important to have certainty
in any relationship, the certainty that
I will apologize and he will forgive me.
the certainty that if I will fight with him
and will get angry with him yet he will
do message to me. a firm belief that
even if he feels bad about something
of mine, about my bad behavior yet n yet
he will not leave me at all, he will always
wait for me. the surety that everyday with
the rising of the sun, he will forget the old
things and will start the new day with new
freshness and new sweet...

Same Shite
Why would I want something new?
When it's the same shit on a different day?
When I can focus on my goals & dreams,
Without someone getting in the way?
I am over the rush
of looking for more,
My heart doesn't flutter
Like it did before.
There isn't anyone out there,
Worth my time,
No one worth messing with my emotions,
Or fucking with my mind.
I am cut off
in the most selfish way,
And I don't care if you care,
Not today.

The first 2 minutes
She stepped out her car and started walking towards the entrance.
Her long blond hair blowing in the wind. I knew it was her immediately.
Something about her and the way she held herself.
I opened my car door and turned myself to face out just so I could watch her.
The way she moved. The way she looked.
She had style. She had sass. She was Beauty.
Oh My Gosh, You're Adorable! She yells as she spots me sitting there.
I'm silence for once. She's taken my breath away.
Her long blond hair blowing in the wind. I knew it was her immediately.
Something about her and the way she held herself.
I opened my car door and turned myself to face out just so I could watch her.
The way she moved. The way she looked.

Oh My Gosh, You're Adorable! She yells as she spots me sitting there.
I'm silence for once. She's taken my breath away.

Blood and Bread
Your mouth keeps moving
With nothing really to say
You're running out of time
It's too late to start to pray
Your eyes keep blinking
But still you don't see
I don't need another savior
You're nothing new to me
Another fallen angel, another hero taken
Grab a corner and carry the weight
Love the name and forgive the crime
Curse the sky and seethe with hate
There's dust and blood on the floor
Keep digging in your fingernails
Scratch and claw at my soul
Another one to kill, another...
With nothing really to say
You're running out of time

Grab a corner and carry the weight
Love the name and forgive the crime

Not for long.
I feel weak,usually mid-week.
But not for long.
He encourages me to be strong,
heading towards the week-end kind of strong.
