Alone
I look around No-one is there. It does not matter, For I doubt they care. I’m by myself in this place, A realm of madness, which I hate. Isolating fear, makes my heart race, As I curse it twisted fate. My heart breaks, I cry many tears, I feel such pain, when I am here. Continue reading

Tired
I just want to sleep. So deep that I do not dream. For into them will nightmares creep, And I shall wake with a scream. Exhaustion claims my soul. My head spins, I fall I sprawl. Filled with undending woe, As the dark things slither and crawl. Into my head they creep, Into my soul Continue reading

Whisper
I hear the words you whisper, the things you dare not say. The things you take and hide inside, from the light of day. I say now it’s all okay, you should say them anyway. I know they are there, I am not blind. It will not keep me from being kind. The hidden glances, Continue reading

Holding it in.
What do I do? What do I say. Will anything keep these thoughts at bay? Through my mind they laugh and play, Keeping me in despair all day. I want to speak, to say my piece. To keep things the way they used to be. But that ship has sailed, I watched it go. Straight Continue reading

Left Alone
The lies I speak for others to hear, Fall painfully upon my own ears. The stories I’ve told of my daily life, makes it seem I live carefree. But it’s not the case, I’m filled with stress. The thoughts and emotions burn within my chest. The tears flow behind eyes unseen. As I sit here Continue reading

I’m Okay
I bleed inside, behind a smile it hides. When any ask, I say I’m fine. Misery is my companion, I revel in her company. But anymore she’s all there is for me. I smile, I laugh, I keep everyone guessing. They look at me, and think I’m counting blessings. Yet the pain in my eyes, Continue reading

Regret
I regret the things I’ve said. Words that should have stayed inside instead. Things that spoken filled me with dread, for whatever way this path now lead. Yet unspoken words I regret even more. They cut much deeper wounds. Actions taken, or those left behind. Which is more cruel, will be known in time. So Continue reading

Boredom
Boredom takes a heavy toll On my mind and indeed my soul. Fills it with thoughts of the blackest hue For the darkness these things indeed woo. I sit here staring at the wall Wondering why things are this way Dreaming of wonders big and small. Dashing away in my mind to play. The shadows Continue reading

For a Ride
You took me for a ride. A wild one, rolling like the sea tide. I wish I’d stayed home locked inside. When you took me for a ride. You spoke words that made me glad. Things that shown in a mind always sad. You promised love and support. And I fell for the untruthful rapport. Continue reading

Out of my Mind
Why won’t you stay out of my mind. Why do I find you here all the time. I walked away to keep the dark thoughts at bay, Yet I find them with me still. I still hear the words, feel the harsh slaps. Still feel the pain across my back. It doesn’t take much to Continue reading
