Shhhh

You never shut up

Let me walk away

You act like I have all day

Please be quiet

I have listened enough to what you have to say

How do you lack what makes you aware

I try to look interested instead of blank stare...

Adulthood

You lost your childhood

Found my time

Lost your choice

Stole mine

I’m losing my time

You use mine

You lost your sanity

Delete my smile

I’m losing my mind

Found some good advice

You lost sleep every night

Try not to cry

I’m too wound up to get mine

Too vulnerable to say goodbye...

The Forest Of The Reds

3 min read

She wandered through the forest of flowers for what seemed like days,in fact it hadn’t even been an hour,time was warped by the mesmerising smell of the reds.

Her mother always warned her not to go down to the valley,those enticingly beautiful red flowers were toxic.

Annabelle had heeded her mother’s words until she was told about the toad man that lived in a cottage on the other side of the ...

You start at the beginning

Know what you need to by the end

Life is learning backwards

No reason to pretend

You gotta look behind you

To see how You got here

You don’t know it all

Know nothing until the end is near

Once the time is over

You no longer have to defend

You lived your life learning

Pass the knowledge on to your friends...

Love open heart should have been

Craving

Fill

Empty as the ocean now desert is dry

Dust

Eye full of lust

Baby born to death in the end

A whole life spent searching for a friend

Lonely

Cry dry eyes

Nothing comes out

Dry open mouth

Dry bread to choke on

Do I have to beg

For the bare minimum

Just one beggar telling another beggar where to find

Bread Crumbs

For the bird...

All the gifts

That warm eyes soft looking at you smile

Laughing

Not even having to say a word

People,the people giving me that look,like I’m a cute puppy dog,because they know I like you and they like you too

The care of choosing the right words,the words that won’t ever hurt you

Vulnerable

Comfortable

Real...

Inside

I didn’t ask to be born,the pain in me is present today,empty,hollow,crippled over,dirt.

Explode is something I never do,implode alone,crying out to you but I don’t want you to hear,muffled me.

Generational trauma,life on a knifes edge. I need safety,something you could never give.

I want to talk but I’m not able to be heard,alone always

When you were young your parents broke you

When I ...

Deception

Only in hindsight do I see the chain of events

The temptation was there

They say it isn’t as bad this way, I can have my vice and feel good about it.

What you said changed my tune, I didn’t talk to you all day. You made me feel what I was trying to push away. Its crazy what you can believe when you are hearing what you want them to say.

The descriptions you used made me know i was still hurt...
