Thoughts
Forlorn thoughts drift through the mist. Each one wields a desperate wish. Plaguing the mind with creeping doubts Making one wish to scream and shout. There is no one to help in the tying times. We simply buckle down and pretend to be fine. Yet we are not, far from it inside. The place where Continue reading

Losing Your Voice
The screaming and shouting take their toll. They make one dive into a shell. To fight back makes it worse, For do you not live already in hell? If you say anything it grows so much worse. Keep silent and they still make it hurt. Sometimes you think you’ll leave in a hearse, As they Continue reading

Shadowy things
Twisting, burning, ever seeking. Shadows seeping, mists are creeping. Through the blackened abyss they go, Onward to spread despair and woe. Through our minds, a victim they will find. In chains of doubt they will surely bind. Fetters of insecurity, thoughts so unkind. With these they bind us, make us blind. We seek escape, will Continue reading

Snapping time
Nothing can compare, to the stories that we share. When we take our seat in that chair, do our work with cheerful care. Snap, crack, pop in the pan. Take another in your hand. Tear the end, pull the string. That’s the way we string a bean. Sitting here having fun, telling stories in the Continue reading

Wish
I wish things would not change That the times stay always the same. That no one had to shoulder blame, Or play such painful games. I wish for happiness and good luck, For things of joy instead of doubt. For memories of the past to stay put up, And for the terror to not make Continue reading

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

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
