Happy As Larry

I envy those people

Who are not deep thinkers

Who never peek out

From behind their blinkers

They all must live

Such carefree lives

Whilst I toil away

Hiding the knives


Stood At The Urinal

Do you
ever
think
there’s
more to
life
than
this?

Fuck
knows
mate,
to be
honest,
I only
came in
for a piss

Talking Too Much

I feel I should

Apologise again

For burdening you

Last night

I understand

It’s not your problem

And I know

It’s not your fight


Nice Try

Thank
you
for the
offer

But I
really
must
say no

There is
no need
for you
to listen

To any
more of
my tales
of woe

Always Worse At Midsummer

Some people

Are built to sleep

Of that

I’m pretty much certain

But for those like me

With anxiety

Insomnia

Is just another burden


Just Because I’m Yawning, Doesn’t Mean I’m Tired

The restlessness
has started

Yet sleep refuses
to advance

Body and soul
have departed

While I’m being led
a merry dance

Weak

I really am sorry

I cannot take your weight

For my arms are too broken

From carrying my own

(A) Pathetic (Part One)

Here

Another
pill

Now
just
stay
still

Don’t
dare
scratch
that
itch

You’ll
just
pull
out
another
stitch

Then
once
again
you
will
bleed
everywhere

And
I
will
have
to
pretend
I
care

All My Fault

If there was
another way
of dealing
with this shit

I wish
now that I
could’ve
chosen it

Then I
wouldn’t have
relied so
much on you

And your
heart wouldn’t
also be torn
in two

Reassured

The relief
is palpable

My anxiety
is pacified

Our normality
is restored

Thank fuck
you replied

Hand Luggage

This weight
is too heavy

Its burden
is too great

Yet I struggle
on regardless

Resigned
to my fate

The Burden

If
only
I knew
what to do

I
would
not be so
reliant on you

If
only
I knew
how to grieve

It
would be
so much easier
to let you leave

If
only
I knew
who to be

I’d
thank you
for your help
then set you free
