Nothingness
She can love and admire but not touch . She can feel deeply but not utter a word . She can lose but she accepts it as if was nothing . At times she has won but you would never tell .She feels way to much and in doing so she can’t feel anything now and she can’t give so she doesn’t take .
It’s an utter nightmare living in the daylight how do you hide well it’s always behind a smile hung on a crucifix of hopelessness. In reality it’s progressive you lose your ability to be or allow yourself the freedom of choice. You see she sees life as two different opponents good or bad , love and...

Thinking of her
Sitting here thinking about you
Its a thing to do
Shes become imprinted on me
We could never be
Theres a lifetime that separates us
Nothing to discuss
But the heart wants what it wants
Still theres no response
I feel happiness again when we talk
I Watch the clock
Minutes turn to hours waiting for the ringtone
Put down the phone
Youre not for her and she could never be yours
On opposite shores
Your darkness would blot out her light
Shes day, you're night
...

Absent the Hunger
I heard the birds
chose not to rise
tears betray
my blurry eyes
Resting here
unable to sleep
unknown reasons
for why I weep
I am not meant
to exist today
how I feel
no words convey
Devoid of senses
empty, numb
no smell or flavour
seems to come
Absent the hunger
deficient desire
without even a start
decision to retire
chose not to rise
tears betray
my blurry eyes
Resting here
unable to sleep
unknown reasons
for why I weep
I am not meant
to exist today
how I feel
no words convey
Devoid of senses
empty, numb
no smell or flavour
seems to come
Absent the hunger
deficient desire
without even a start
decision to retire

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...

Paul Hollywood - the recipient of a British national, colonialist award for services to Himself!
By Stanley Collymore
Even if the MBE actually meant
anything which, on a practical
level, I quite personally don't
think it does, as Britain, in case those
handing out these evidently basically
pointless gongs, as well as the really
deluded recipients, basically proudly
and vaingloriously, happily receiving
them, don't appear to simply realize,
no longer has an empire, and that is
specifically therefore what the MBE
is obviously all about: a Member of
the British Empire, and rather in my
point of view,...

Kintsugi Eulogy
Your kintsugi kisses
linger still, their legacy
binds this once fractured soul
and made life beautiful again,
For a time, there was no shade
just the warmth of love,
a promise of the future
until the shadows of deceit
fell upon your lips.
You left some damage
in your wake, but
I never thanked you
for the inspiration.

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.

Skin Hunger
It's so long since I felt your touch.
How do we sleep in the same bed and not even graze each other?
You pushed me away,
With self-deprecating statements.
You tell me you are sorry.
As I suffer from your exile.
Till death we said.
How did we die?
Laying in this bed.
How do we sleep in the same bed and not even graze each other?
You pushed me away,
With self-deprecating statements.
You tell me you are sorry.
As I suffer from your exile.
Till death we said.
How did we die?
Laying in this bed.

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...
