Australian
musically driven, i find myself hidden away in my bedroom. my music on loud, a notebook on my lap, a pen in my hand, and a box full of past poetic failures beside me. / with hair the colour of fire / and eyes as deep as the sea / ....... just joking.
finally awake after a dreamless sleep
looking to the end of your bed
you see a wrinkled cadavers arm (hand and all)
reaching out to grab you
you can barely move out of fear
every time you call for you dad
your voice is barely a whisper
finally your able to call out "daddy"
he replies "be there in a minute"
the arm is still reaching to grab you
your shaking with fear
scared out of your mind
finally grabbing the strength while it lasts
eyes still locked on the arm
you jump out of the bed and run to the door
opening it you race out
your at the door on the inside of your room again
opening it again you race out
this process is then repeated three more time out of fear
it clicks
your trapped in your room
a wrinkled cadaver arm is trying to get you
your father has not come
after being screamed for over and over again
you blink
your back in bed
you think that its over
that it was just a dream
then the nightmare relives itself
again and again and again
the cadaver arm reappears
over and over again
you relive the terror, frustration, horror, and desperation
your dad still has not arrived to save you
one finally scream leaps from your throat
DADDY!!!!!
you wake up
and hoping against hope
you jump out of bed
race out your door and out the back
you made it
welcome back to reality
overjoyed to be awake you burst into tears
and look for your dad
he isnt there.....

When the sky turns from blue to purple,
Then from purple to pink,
From pink to orange
Then from orange to night
The night is my friend
But the sunset before is my lover
With its colours that seem to go on forever,
Forever and forever and no more
I long to stay,
Suspended in time
In the very embrace that I long for
The warmth of the setting sun
The last rays of the day
Make warmth radiate
Throughout my entire being
And makes my heart melt
With the love of the last rays of the sun
And the colours that come with its setting
I want to stay in the embrace of my setting sun
But I know that it will be there tomorrow
And so I shall wait patiently
Sitting with the arms of my setting sun
Around me until tomorrow
a tomorrow that i long to come

funny, weird, generous, hard working
only two words can explain this ET phenomenon
MY DAD.
he is my hero,
in many a different way.
sticking to what he believes.
and not giving up when things get tough
some would call that stubbornness
but i think of it as a superpower
one that can never be taken away
this is my dad
my role model
my hero
and he can achieve anything
p.s. happy fathers day to every dad out there

Like a dance of
broken, geaming, fragments....
they flew across the pond.
shining so bright,
almost resembling fallen stars.
Tiny angels my little sister calls them.
with wings so delicate,
and features so striking.
Tiny angels my little sister calls them.
but i know what they really are,
so bold and graceful,
so beautiful as they danced around my pond.
these are the fairies in my garden,
and this is their dance.

i couldnt see the way, the tunel as dark as night
and the lamp posts within were brocken to the core.
the life i could have led dissapeared from my reach
the walls of my consience closing
and the presure maddening
the darkness were like walls closing around me,
my world is turned to dust before my eyes
because you wernt there beside me ,
to show me that i could to any thing.
you were my confidence
my one and only friend but now your gone
and its to much to bear
i read my books over and over,
i took you for granted
i thought id lost you
but then i found you
and then i lost you all over again
if i could see you smile just one more time all the pain in the world could not stop me from finding you once more

The statues of the night
To turn away is to seek out death
Don't blink
Don't look into their eyes
Don't turn away
The weeping angels see when unseen
Move when unheard
But speak when spoken too
They answer in the voices of the men they ****
They weep in shame
But it does'nt last long
Cause soon they're hunting once more
And
This
Time
THEY'RE COMING FOR YOU

Kick me out
Trow me away
Break my bones with those sticks and stones
Dig my grave
Bury me deep
Give me a mercy killing
and now the torment shall begin

i never wanted to be alone
but somehow i always ended up that way
the years that i cried
and the tears that i shed
if i counted all my tears
pandora would turn green with envy
though i know you gone
i cant help but hope you'll be back
even though i know this could never be
i've lost you and i know that i'll never have you back
if i couned all my tears
pandora would turn green with envy

dont ever think that i dont care
your troubles are your own
dont ever think you've got a share
of money fame and bones
my killer instincts say im wrong for you
but you keep saying your wrong for me
the relief i felt was so intence
i feared the breaking of your heart
so then we went our seperate ways
you to the left
and me to the right
dont ever think that i didnt care
