In shades of neon light
We sit
Smoke shared between
Lingering like ghosts
Hosts of the cancer
Delving deeper in our bones
We’re crying
Without tears
Cuz we’re so fucking full of empty
We can barely breathe in the nicotine
And everything is false
It’s all smoke and mirrors
When the sun unlocks her vault
Blue skies misleading
We might just think it’s not our fault
So take my hand
And we can vanish into the smoke
Poetry
Absence
As the orchestra plays it’s song
your absence is in every note
your absence is in every tone
You’ve become the music
Something I can’t touch
The music is the memory
Of you being here with me
And it hurts.
You were so small
And the biggest thing in my life
Now your absence follows me
I am not the same.
I cannot carry this burden
But I will not let you go
Your absence is all I have left to hold
Sledgehammer
I merged and became one with the walls
I heard it all.
As
they
put
their
hunting
trophies
on the wall
Little did they know
I heard and
felt it all
If these walls could
talk
You’d have a shock
I can hear the clock
Tick, tock
Time is running
Running nowhere
Tick tock
Gotta be somewhere
Time is locked
You won’t know
Till the aftershock
Tick tock
Tick tock
Backwards in reality
Forwards in make-belief
I merged and became
one with the walls
Not a wallflower
But a nail in the hall
Hammer, hammer
Oh how
ghosts
in time
stagger
Clamour, clamour
Hear their cries
Sledgehammer
Butter-fly
I flicked butter off a knife
I made a butterfly
Splinter
That day is a shard of time
A splinter in the heart
Hollow
They say dig deeper
As if we should
Or could
But what if life is superficial
And more hollow
than you wish to expose?
Through
I was a bicycle wheel
Treading through mud
skidding to a halt
Coming loose
Rolling through fields unknown
Collapsing on intentions
Weeds entwined through spokes
I don’t need no phd
I’ll wash my brain in conspiracy
I’ll say you washed yours in mediocrity
drinking in all that mainstream
lather up and repeat
we’ll divide ourselves
“I am right you are wrong” I shall say with smug glee
Though i’ve Never studied any of these fucking things
But I know better than thee
what do you mean you have a phd
in virology?
I’ve just told you
it’s the fucking 5G
Turn it off and we’ll all be free.
I don’t need a phd
to see that you’re all lying fucking sheep
And I know best
i’ve got All the worlds secrets
cause i’m So fucking intelligent
everyone is wrong
I don’t need no fucking phd!
Rain
My emptiness is full tonight
As the sun sets just out of sight
I picture you coming home
But it’s too late
No time for goodbyes
Gone in the blink of an eye
And the sky doesn’t care
Cause the clouds aren’t here
Raining like it ought to be
Heavy breath full of empty
It’s hard to breathe
When you can see
The world is continuing
Without you
And my world is nothing
Cause it revolved around you
I want the rain
Raining over me
Dilute these tears
Before I disintegrate
I want the rain
Let it rain over me
It’s not raining like it ought to be
Life is a marathon
Life feels like a marathon
where I no longer have it in me
to run.
