Not The Right Time

I’m sure you didn’t mean it

That way

That you were just trying

To help me through

But wheeling out those lines

As I lost my mind

Did nothing

But make me hate you


Know-It-All

What
doesn’t
kill me
might
make
me
stronger

But
it
also
makes
me
sick

So
you
can
shove
your
aphorisms

Up
your
arse

You
condescending
prick

I Owe You

And now
that
I am
better,
it seems,
you have
taken a
turn for
the worse

But you
won’t talk
to me,
despite
my plea,
which
is really
the most
perverse


Crutches

I fear
I have
lent on
you once
too often,
and now
you are
as broken
as me.

I should
never have
asked for
your help,
to be
honest,
as now
you’ll never
be free.

Pushing People Away

Sounds like I was sick of platitudes

Back when I wrote this one

Had enough of condescending attitudes

When all was said and done

Yet as I think about it now

I’d love to hear them again

But sympathy disappears

When it falls on deaf ears

And eventually you run out of friends


No Consolation

There’s
no
point
in
crying

Over
spilt
milk

God
loves
you
for
trying

Blah
blah
blah

#9 The Nurse

It was she

Who stopped my hands from shaking

She

Who stopped my head from aching

She

Who stopped my voice from quaking

So why can’t she stop

My heart from breaking?

The Messenger (1)

Morning:

I
enjoyed
chatting
with
you

Even
though
it was
through
a screen

Like an
impenetrable
wall of
concrete

With a
little
crack
inbetween

The Trade Off

It is with a heavy heart

And a mournful sigh

That the time has come

To say our goodbye

I’ll always be eternally grateful

For everything you’ve done

Your love has taken away my pain

And left me with none
