I drown in your nonchalance Complaining and kicking out for help Don't oppose the sea It's Forbidden Scary Anything it does wrong not its own fault It's the way the wind blows And how could you control the wind? So the waves keep rising and falling onto my head Not taking notice when I'm screaming out for help It's one droplet of salt in the sea they say But it's not just one it's many It claws your eyes and makes you ache I'm thrashing frantically waving for help But the sea doesn't SEE It's pushed me down below And it accuses the wind

The wind did it
Banging banging banging Against the head board Thinking of good reasons to do things Head growling humming whispering Good enough but not good enough Every which way spinning Convulsing Bright lights in the corner But how to reach it Turn it off It's too big of a glimpse Into what's in store Just so infuriatingly close Just so far

Just out of reach
You bore me With your trivial formalities Stiff ironed ways Particular uptight wants I feel tucked in Blanketed over Because I imagine things so much better And I can't move on If I've fought this hard Repairing the stigmas Stitching up and down A feathery pillow Not quite relaxing and wanting to be there I don't want to turn into them Waiting and waiting Tossing over a duvet Afraid to crinkle Upsetting the delicate folds Calm down Loosen up and be yourself Unless that is the real you And if so You bore me

Pillow encased
I miss you So much it contracts on me Out of the sweet baby blue sky Your name is pulled bitter as lemon I miss you My childhood sweet heart I cry for you like a raven What we once were was messed in parting I miss you My head is pounding throbbing Rembering the years long love Only to find out twas returned back I miss you Too late I fear For we've both moved on melancholy But the future together could have been so much better I miss you For that's the way the clocks chime Cogs spinning further apart Why didn't the paths stay the same I miss you It could have been insanely easy Knitting together like ever before But I've made a different choice Forgetting that I miss you And ever so want to kiss you Quite lightly on the cheek

Baby Blue
I have no dreams No aspirations But I'm driven forward Ever receiving With capabilities for miles But I can't fulfill them Because I just don't know Passionless for a particular thing No pet habits But still good Still scraping by Exceeding expectations With nothing to live up to No title to nurture

Scraping By
Sweat and rubber Chafes against my toes Polish chipped like a porcelain doll Hurling juvenile patter around Like drops of sweet rain Cooling the smouldering tirade Flying on horseback Wind twirling non-existing Scalding coils spurt up limbs Bubbling out in incandescent mirth Linking and tripping Stumbling doggedly along Ridged gelatinous arcs Superior to the first incline Propelling ever up

Bouncy Castle
I sit numb Mood swings bipolar Tendrils of ice reach in Curling round the window pane Loosening the stuffy holds Obliterating them in shards Of cold gripping suffocating Yet I don't relieve it I sit numb Strapped down forced to think Of a reason to dare A sneak behind a window pane To close it for good And prevail against the bitter arms Or I could just sit numb Aloof from it all Elevated and ice bound

Window pane
No one likes you But I feel sorry for you So I will hang around in the curtains A fake a shambles Here to let you lean on Until someone walks the shadows and I kick you off Screaming in a pretence of disgust Fawn eyes glaze over And the scars run deeper Losing faith in humanity

Pitiful
I was always never Sneaking through the wisps of wisps Praying loudest in the weakest gasps Never needed never wanted Always there for fake reliability There but never quite there Sought after in forgotten vain

Never
Unexpected chinks of sunlight drip through the barriers Cradling me and enveloping me In a loving embrace My darling you mean so much. Intricate fabricated stories and deceits are shared Secrets leave scars in our hides Thorns of roses forever imprinted But they make you who you are That's why I gravitate towards you Because we share heartbreak, dreams and hopes Yet still keep drifting on the brisk bittersweet breeze Ever forwards to our future Fragments of memories and actions The candied sap willing to shield me From the dripping tears of sadness That's why I cherish you Because you learn to grow with me Palms outstretched We endeavour as an antagonistic pair Seperate entities entwined With a golden burning lustre on the surface Learning how to function as one Even though so incompatibly perfect for one another Because nothing else matters when it's us - No judgment or propaganda It's undiluted love and yearning Laughter ripples underneath the exterior It works like bewitchment Smoothly and all at once Whispering through the woods and engulfing us In the burning sunlight rays of fervour My darling you mean so much.
