Poem – Page 62 – Simon A Jackson

Overfool

Thrash, maul, no control. What you did came too late.Particularly sad kind of fate.Deer caught in the headlights.Soul surrounded by darkest blights.Marks upon your once clean flesh.Crisscross like a scarred mess.Causing fail to seep on in. Thrash, maul, no control.Trapped alongside, broke overhaul. Words spoken that had no value.They condemn you to the gallow.Twisted secondsContinue reading “Overfool”

Gales

Torn across the endless greyNow is not a time to playSeek thick walls and seek them quickFor you need to reach shelter before the flickThe one that will send you so far awayRight across this sea of sprayWhile all around the fluff does flowNone of it looks inviting thoughInstead the storm is here to stayAsContinue reading “Gales”

Prophetic

Tear down all that came beforeThe people love to call you whoreProgress is a key for the lockOne that they wish to blockBut violence is never the answerIt just spreads like a cancerBoth should be rooted outThese are words you must shoutAlert the masses to something brighterThough you are the definition of outsider What cameContinue reading “Prophetic”

Pledge

I will guide you the best I canJust believe and open your handPerfection is not found easilyMaybe we can both find it truly This is a beginning and not the endUpon this book I swear what I intend Study until we have the factsRush and there could be cracksIt’s why we ensure to be thoroughEveryContinue reading “Pledge”

Attempts

I jump into a canalAttempting to escape hellI dislike the smellSomething on which I should not dwell What is lost cannot be foundJust let me approach from new ground I run for the hillsTo avoid taking pillsSick of shallow thrillsThey don’t help with even one of the bills What is lost cannot be foundJust letContinue reading “Attempts”

Bitter From Near The Beginning

We had our fun but now it’s throughI can’t even stand the sight of youThe scars on my back speak all the truthThose are marks you refuse to accept as proofNot to say that it wasn’t goodWe both couldn’t stop when we shouldIt’s why we are now at oddsI hate you and you want bloodButContinue reading “Bitter From Near The Beginning”

Resilient

Strengthen and overcomeListen to no oneEvery obstacle you can conquerDon’t put life off any longerKnives will strike at your backYou don’t have to abide thatPull them free and move onYou are better than all of themPassion of unequaled measureDo the things that give you pleasureWords will be fired at your choicesIgnore each one of thoseContinue reading “Resilient”

Superficial

More or less is so one-dimensionalDoesn’t take into account potentialTo speak of another in this wayWon’t lead to you getting a sayJust listen and not rabbit onYou might just learn somethingPeople come in myriad formsNo need to decide them right or wrongLooks are only skin deepThey are something you cannot keepPersonality lasts foreverFocusing on thatContinue reading “Superficial”

First Night

Don’t want this night to ever endWho cares if the room spins againToo busy with the joy that I feelSo much of this feels surrealJust a night on the top of cloud nineDon’t let it end I whisper to youCan’t imagine it being throughJust a flicker of the candle flameWhoever did this I’ll be happyContinue reading “First Night”

When Saviours Are Snakes

Watching the watchers cause the forest has diedThey are the suits that brought upon this tideFaceless nameless forms from the lightDazzling all that glimpses the sightBut this is not how we wish to be viewedThat is a vision severely skewedFashioned just to form a habitNo one here should be considered rabidAs we are not theContinue reading “When Saviours Are Snakes”
