You walk these halls like a ghost.Upon false merits you pray others choke.Slandering honesty with broken lines.All you know is what you have designed.With no truth in the words you speak.Being kind is seen as weak. Falsify when you cannot win.Justice is but another’s empty dreams.Wrapped in ash and soaked in bile.From duress your loveContinue reading “Sell Today And Lose Tomorrow”

Limited
Bars so thick they might as well be walls.Confined in this humble hell of mine.Straining at the seems from a lack of space.Gratitude is being erased. Lights so bright I might be blind for good.Fragments loiter where memory should.Mounting pressure crushing out my senses.Feel as though I’m living in past tenses. Funneled into a narrowContinue reading “Limited”
Choice Paralysis
Gripped by indecision.Not sure where to go.So unlike my normality.Hence my conundrum so… Give me guidance.I demand of my myself.No such thing is forthcoming.Am I simply so frightened?Can’t be sure either way.Head keeps spinning endlessly. Stirring where I lay.Confused by my intention.Why am I conflicted?Get a grip on comprehension. Show me a sign.Lead me onContinue reading “Choice Paralysis”
Watchful Eye
Circle slowly like the crows.Whose beady eyes watch for throes.Carrion to satiate growing hunger.These things are worse when they’re younger.For time teaches all who survive how to persist.Rather than be swallowed up by impenetrable mist.From which monsters often rear.Ready to turn those who doubt into a smear.A way back from which there is no hope.ItContinue reading “Watchful Eye”
Stranger On His Way
Scream with me! Drift,If it feels right.Be resolute in the face of spite.Do not bend against your will.Ignore if you’re commanded to swallow some bitter pill. To idolise,Is a step too far.Gloating forces you beneath the bar.Morality is now but a dream.There are so many faces and all are trying to scheme. Vent all thatContinue reading “Stranger On His Way”
E.E.A.
Hey everybody! I don’t have an opening, intro, or whatever much but with what has happened over the weekend I’ve moved the originally planned post to a later point and put this newly written one in. Written Saturday night as the last of a string of four. Inspiration sometimes strikes me like that. Anyway, IContinue reading “E.E.A.”
Before It Takes A Hold
Harsh winds of winter cutting through your soul.Seek shelter from this bite before it takes a hold. Shivering to the bone.So far away from your warm home.Out on the roads that are so bleak.The ride is at least another 3 long weeks. Lusting for a soft bed of comfort.Instead being met with cold unforgiving stone.HowlContinue reading “Before It Takes A Hold”
Gutting The Drama
Another day filled with fake shock.Too many want to be angry around the clock.Spouting more hate than any single person should hold.Deafening volume about how they can’t be bought and sold.Yet those who shout loudest are often the biggest issue.Contradicting their words with the actions they stick to. While I will be…Gutting the drama.I don’tContinue reading “Gutting The Drama”
Vagrant
Born into solitude and death.Scrounging for scraps to fill an empty belly.Wandering frightened and cold.Lost amongst every moment of each breath.Pondering what a different life might offer.Unable to comprehend how it could be better. Living without hope or love.Growing feral in these streets so tough.Drifting between places of grime.Bear witness to murders and other violentContinue reading “Vagrant”
Like A Speck In A Snowstorm
Screaming to be heard but getting no reply.Doesn’t matter if I speak truth or lie.Blackhole swallows every word I say.Soon I’ll be invisible to everybody. Like a speck of dust in a snowstorm.I’m lost in the limitless ocean. Thrashing about in hopes of being seen.Leave a trail of destruction wherever I’ve been.Still no recognition isContinue reading “Like A Speck In A Snowstorm”
