Pick Me Up
I’ve been down lately
sorry I haven’t been
around lately
checked out mentally
letting shit get to me
feeling like
everything is out, to get to me
pick me up
cos i’m falling
pick me up
and i’m sorry to keep calling
to unload my shit on you
but know that
you can do the same to me too
i’ll be there
pick me up
because right now
i’m at my lowest
and i’m hoping that
no one will notice
but from the mud
i will grow
like the lotus
from the pain
i will rise from the ashes...

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...
Inside my soul

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...

Savior Dog
She cocks her head and stares,
offers a paw in the air,
The paw is a word, the stare
a question, when the liquor
is drunk unchilled, they will stare
In the coldness of covid,
the paws comforted, rescued
our souls, the whip of the tail
delighted, their noses keen
to the smell of woes and worries
she flops down beside me, her
bottom up, and demands the rub,
near and nudging, she stares when
I stop, we healed when we stroked
petted bathed nuzzled fed
...

Unread Heart
wandering thoughts of reflection
judgement inking poisoned thoughts
tainted quill lay upon blank crinkled parchment
purple blood ink fading upon an unread heart
dripping from soul to sanities darkness
life's lessons captivates stone cold passion
silence of laughter voids contentment
taunted tears linger upon painted lashes
smeared mascara streaks decaying dreams
memories screaming whispers echoing failure
fake sweet kisses unfold passionate deception
intimacy heartlessly shared forever not understood
...

Rain's Sorrow
Petals were puckered.
Drooping with fat drops of rain.
Sorrow drenched mind's bloom.
Drooping with fat drops of rain.
Sorrow drenched mind's bloom.

The Bible, a savior and a broken heart!
On I wish I knew just what to say ,
To help u ease your pain.
Spending too much time alone
Can make a man insane.
I know that you are broken,
And I know just how u feel ...
I know that it will take some time,
Before u start to heal...
I've spent lots of hours,
All alone and torn apart.
I still have scars that bleed sometimes
Deep inside my heart.
I didn't want to meet you..
Didn't want to take a chance.
Wasn't looking for a new friend
Or even fake romance.
I seldom make much effort,
Cuz I don't...
To help u ease your pain.
Spending too much time alone
Can make a man insane.
I know that you are broken,
And I know just how u feel ...
I know that it will take some time,
Before u start to heal...
I've spent lots of hours,
All alone and torn apart.
I still have scars that bleed sometimes
Deep inside my heart.
I didn't want to meet you..
Didn't want to take a chance.
Wasn't looking for a new friend
Or even fake romance.
I seldom make much effort,
Cuz I don't...

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...

Anchor
Sometimes you lose the anchor in your life
It’s sunk, disappeared at the bottom of the ocean
The most important person gone in a second
No air in your lungs, no wind in your sails
Your whole life changes
Just like that
It’s sunk, disappeared at the bottom of the ocean
The most important person gone in a second
No air in your lungs, no wind in your sails
Your whole life changes
Just like that

sunflower
setting the tempo I begin to flow
gentle honey relieving some stress
reaching for the skies, I touch blue
releasing my sorrow into the atmosphere
picking up the joy of the natural world
doing what it was intended to do
flowers swaying in the wind
birds singing, springtime mating
they mate for life and so do I
my soulmate and I reuniting slowly
to love this way is to hurt
to laugh you must also cry
confronted with my heart I realize
my sincerity is altered
I get saddened then I refocus ...

Forever
I’ve lived my life
as living goes
and this is what I know…
That flowers wave
to wind
That branches bend
and sometimes break
beneath the weight of snow
That love will come
and go
Forever has an end
as living goes
and this is what I know…
That flowers wave
to wind
That branches bend
and sometimes break
beneath the weight of snow
That love will come
and go
Forever has an end

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

God's honest truth
As she lays in the hospital bed dying,
i have great sadness that my wife of 35 years is at death's door
There was so much more that we could have done together
My only regret is that I never hit her
That's the one thing I would do if I had to do it all over again
i have great sadness that my wife of 35 years is at death's door
There was so much more that we could have done together
My only regret is that I never hit her
That's the one thing I would do if I had to do it all over again
