Stare into the eyes as black as the night skiesHope for relief when you just can’t speakA catch in your throat that won’t be beatIs this the face that you wear this week? Are the reflections showing your failures?Or will you look at the positive behaviours?Just as the madness comes rolling inYou know that thisContinue reading “Stare”

New Dawn
Winds howl and rain buffetsHold on tight or you’ll be nothingRipped from the open armsSent across this lifeless landTaken from all that you knowThe storm of heresy does growAnother notch into the beltWithout remorse or consent Biting cold and burning iceWill you surrender tonight?As you fight to surviveWar is hell and so you striveTo beContinue reading “New Dawn”
Tick
Decided to add another post just to complete the week. This won’t be a regular thing, but it may happen every now and then. The clock hand is moving againWhen will you stop this thing?Starting to get the feelingThat you’re just going to be lyingAnother line to save your skinWhat a sad way of existingDiggingContinue reading “Tick”
Supply
Don’t usually post on a Tuesday or say anything before a poem post, but I wrote this and thought seeing as it is pretty apt at the moment I would. Looking out from a window on highFeeling the need to shout and cryWhat has happened to the people?All of them seem so unequalStripping out whatContinue reading “Supply”
Fireworks
Launch them into the skyRocket races up real highThen it detonatesRevealing its coloured flakes A firework with its boomSpectacle as people go wooThen another fliesThis display goes for miles Lighting up the dark nightThe colours seem limitlessHoping it never endsBut everything does descend The sparks soon fizzle outUntil there is nothing leftThen the display isContinue reading “Fireworks”
Shark
You see the blood in the waterI see the black of your eyesYou aim straight for a targetI won’t watch as you take your prize You linger in the darkI see your outline, starkYou feed off the confusedI can’t take the violence that follows You smell fear in the airI hope you’re not theirYou comeContinue reading “Shark”
Passage
What is fear?What is love?Do you see the world above?Or are you stuck down belowWill you hope?Or don’t you knowAs the leaves fallAs the rains comeWill you just succumb?Pray for demonsPray for foolsPray that you never losePonder out your final daysBeg for time to go onRide the tideRide the wavesSettle for what you craveFor onceContinue reading “Passage”
Your Time
Spiral in an inverted plainCan you keep your mind serene?Clouds over a firey skyWith dreams of what could be Dancing in the dead nightParties are full of pure delightAs light rises beyondCan you still say you’re free? Another season in the canGrey hairs soon will comeWhere has the time goneSoon you’ll be another one WatchingContinue reading “Your Time”
Wage
Make the fires blazeAs you focus your gazeFor the soldiers do marchWith their shielded hearts A clatter of steelAs they march for the sealThe flags flying highWith a true sense of pride The battle soon comesFields of blood be doneA clash for the oilsBut go the victor the spoils With enemy are routAnd gallons ofContinue reading “Wage”
Open Road
When the skies are black and you feel lostWill you search at any cost?The road less travelled might ease the painWith rolling clouds and pouring rainA great distance gone but still not doneTraversing continents without an endingSleeping under stary skies of inky blackEmbers spit until daylight Eons pass but still you roamThe open road isContinue reading “Open Road”
