All around Darkness

I’ll walk the walk.
I’ll talk the talk.
I’am who I’am.
And that’s not all…

If I can sense your smell…
I’ll fly like a bat out of hell.
I’ll come crash…

the city sleeps.

sin rises like a dirty
vapour from off the crazed
paving stones
and permeates the darkness

If only…
You could fill these lungs with newfound breath
Instead of the stagnated gasps of stale smoke
As I light another tear-soaked cigarette
Whilst I wish for happier days
If only…
You could…

every day the drab and gray
pierce me
with a sun blinding sword
meant for its mark

my days
the build up
of droplets on my windows
my view
an insidious blur

wishing to scrape away
what is not even there
I crav…

sadness and regret
fall
like dirty grey
snow upon the stiffening
corpse

This my child, is what it means to love.

Like the Wind Vane I Wait for the Signs of the Wind

A storm is a brewing in the horizon and it’s calling out my name
A raging, howling storm is a brewing
And it’s headed my way
It’s co…

I am frightened of the dark
In this unfamiliar space
My arms reach out with hope
My eyes strain to see your face
But you are not here with me
As I tread the waters deep

We are isolated mourners
When we los…

I knew a little girl,
her name was michelle.
When I met her,
I thought…
that name ring’s a bell.

She, was shy and timid.
And would sometime’s fidget.

There was something about her,
which …

the ragged girl
walks up the steps
of the
theatre with dirt-stained
feet, her bare
flesh
on the stone
like the slap of wet
fish.
briefly she listens at the
door’s narrow
crack; then, hearing only mu…

I was not made of stone.
But I’ve choose to turn into one.

For nothing can break me anymore.
Not even your word’s in which I recall.

For stick’s and stone’s,
may break my bone…

I’ve meet a friend…
Who made me feel
whole again.

Who does’nt pretend.
Or even offend.

Who empathize’s.
Without any surprise’s.

Understand’s and share’s.
The feel…

Leave me alone.
I want to be on my own.

I don’t need you in my life.
Causing nothing but strife.

Conflict and heartache.
Anger and bitter.

A never ending story.
Of this, that and the other.

The tru…

Someone who is genuine.
Sincere, loyal and honest.

Someone who will alway’s,
keep there promise.

Someone who appreciate’s,
the love I give to them.

Someone who is genuine,
loving and caring.

I want to be the one to light your insides on fire
Igniting them with a passion so strong,
You’ll only breathe in a smoke of pure ecstasy
I want to be the fumes,
You just can’t get enough of…

We can scrawl our miseries on these paper boats
But the ocean just brings them back.

driving me towards the brink again,
Push me down
the icy hill,
the oiled slide.

send me towards the edge again,
pull me into
the burning fire,
the heated knife.

like a game of cards- play my hand,
and fold …

And then comes the rush;
the same numb feeling from below my feet
grabs through the blackened dirt
at my ankles as I try to run
away from anything I can.
Stopped in my tracks
by the century old pain
tying m…
