"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
After all those years
Of loving you
And trying my best
To understand
If only I knew
It would be you
Who’d be the one
To drop my hand
Me & You
Watch
me
and
you’ll
sense
it
Touch
me
and
you’ll
know
Tell
me
and
you’ll
feel
it
Hold
me
and
don’t
let go

That is how
It was back then
When I had no choice
But to rely on pills
One to find a way
To get through each day
And several more
To help me rebuild
Happy Pills
I think
we’ll
increase
your dose,
She
said,
To stop
you
feeling so
morose.
I’ll
easily
give it
a try,
I
said,
But I’m
pretty sure
the end
is nigh.

The car is booked
My bags are packed
But I’m not yet sure
If I’m coming back
The Ends Of The Earth
I really
cannot
wait to
drive
All
along
that
rugged
coast
To
settle
in those
mountains
And
mourn
who
I miss
the most

You will do it
Again one day
Hurt someone else
In the same way
And when you do
I’ll be there to say
You deserve to hang
Without delay
Criminal
We all
do bad
things
sometimes
Yet not
everyone
is made
to pay
But while
you will
never
admit your
crimes
Just know
the truth
will out
one day

Here I am stuck
In this carriage again
Honestly,
I could scream
I’m forever trying
To reach the end
Yet I always run out
Of steam
‘Forever Delayed’
Brought
to a
standstill
By leaves
on the
line ahead
Yet
another
signal
point
failure
Oh how
I wish
I’d stayed
in bed

I don’t know how it’s happened
And I can’t even tell you why
But, it seems, I’ve grown old
In love with the wrong fucking guy
Set In Stone
Neither of
us knows
If the life
we chose
Will work out
for the best

After all
That playful promise
It is time for me
To be brutally honest
I’m glad we tried it
In the sack
But I’m leaving now
And I won’t be back
Closing Time
If a
nod
Is as
good
As a
wink
Then
me
and
you
Should
get
that
drink
And
finally
put
This
flirtatious
thing
Between
us
both
To
bed

After all that you
Put me through
You think a sorry will suffice
You’ve got no clue
Of what you’d need to do
For me to even think about playing nice
There’s No Excuse
It
didn’t
mean
a thing
back
then
And
it
certainly
doesn’t
now
So
you can
shove
your
apology
Up
your
arse
You
spiteful
little
cow

This is what, ultimately,
Was the cause of it all
When he’d reached the end
And I needed a friend
It wasn’t her I wanted to call
Not Everybody Hurts The Same
Privacy
is not
allowed,
it seems
When
you’re
trying
to grieve
People
get pissed
off,
it seems
If you don’t
wear your
heart on
your sleeve

You’re not on social media
He said
That is unprecedented
There’s nothing in my life
She said
That’s worth being documented
Restricted List
It
feels
so
good
to
block
you
Who
knew
how
happy
I’d
be
For
you’ve
had
so
much
of my
life
Now
you
won’t
get
another
piece
of me

If only we
Were like machines
Coded in black and white
We would be
Safe in our routines
And sleep far better at night

Don’t

The

reads,
You can
still get
what you
want.
Only an

response,
I

Could

Concerning affairs
Of the heart
I was once a master
But when he died
I lost my mind
And now I’m a complete disaster
Ready To Implode
It
isn’t
you
That
I don’t
trust
Honestly,
it’s
me
My
mind
is
No
longer
robust
enough
To
deal
with
Such
trickery

It was right, I think, to call it a day
As were hardly
Love’s young dream
I mean you put in the graft
And it did make me laugh
But you’d never have made me scream
Dirty Minds
As you don’t seem
To get it
I’ll explain it again
Real quick
It wasn’t your love
I wanted
It was merely your…

I guess I don’t feel
Like this anymore
But in that I can take no pride
As the only reason
I feel any different
Is because I’m now dead inside
What’s The Point?
It
feels
like
I will
never
laugh
again
As my
life
is so
full of
sorrow
and pain
Like
I will
no
longer
be able
to smile
And
that
nothing
I do will
ever be
worthwhile

When I read back
On posts like this
I can’t help but curl my toes
It’s like I think
You’re all in the pink
And it’s just me that feels morose
In My Shoes
Bitter
and
twisted
Yes,
that’s
me
But
live
my
life
For a
minute
or two
And so
would
you
fucking
be

My own demise

This Halloween reprise

Body Snatchers
Far more terrifying
Than any soul left behind
Are the ghouls
Who camp out permanently
In the corners of my mind

Four different medications
Plus some of my own to boot
Yet the madness persists
As I eye up my wrists
Making the point of treatment moot
Assistance / Resistance
So
it’s
been
a year
Of
your
latest
treatment
Yet
I still
don’t
feel
Any
fucking
different

Then the urge I could try to park
But if you mean my wit
She said
That’ll always be razor sharp

It would not be
That unusual for me
To view my own mental health
As simply cliché
And to explain it away
As just feeling sorry for myself
The Gloom
Does it
follow me
Or do I
chase it
Either way
around
It’s still
pretty shit
(Originally Posted 30.10.2019)
It’s alright for you
As all you need to do
Is remember him
On special occasions
Well I feel that way
Every fucking day
So you’ll never know
My frustrations
Clueless
You
think
you
know
But
you
have
no clue
What
I’ve
had to
let go
Or
what I
still go
through

Check in with your family and friends
Make sure they know you are their ally
As you can’t always tell
Who on the outside looks well
But on the inside wants to die
The Passing Samaritan
I
really
can’t
explain
it
This
feeling
I have
inside
I
just
don’t
want
to be
here
And,
God
knows,
I’ve
tried

This is an interpolation
Or is it just out and out theft
Either way we know
Without the modifications below
That my lines would be bereft
Something Old / Something New
I wandered lonely as a cloud
Screaming the words fuck you out loud
As, like the night, she walked in beauty
I wished someone would just come along and shoot me
As I, in the wood, took the road less travelled
I sat and cried as my mind unravelled
And as we talked between the rooms
I closed my eyes and succumbed to the fumes

Three years on
And here I am
Having been kept waiting
With my life on hold
My heart stone cold
And my tears still accumulating
Tell Me

If anyone asked
About my rhymes
I would most likely show them this
It’s an apt expression
Of my abject depression
And defines my blog’s premise
Innards
Like a
bird
Trapped
in it’s
cage
I sing
of love
and
lament
Bleeding
both
Introspective
rage
And
embittered
discontent
