The atrocities that seeded my most youngest days, A splice of soul & society - A boy maize. Bitter crimes, made even more sour by time, May they sweeten the fruit and not soften the rind. A rear-view of my yesterdays grew a darken vine A truth, darkness yields no harvest This opaqueness is all mine. I've heard no lies, As I sat in this pickled brine. that will make me mourn or cry As I stand tall before the farmers scythe! For as always, I stand alone. And justice demands A payment for the hands, That reaped what they didn't sow --

No, Hope Won't Grow Here
Why aren’t we dancing? I see how you smile at me. Shouldn’t we be busy romancing? I know you fancy we. Shall I keep me guessing? When I feel what you’re sending me. Jovial eyes Do they tell me lies? Have they seen What I hide - do they see me? Why am I dancing? I have seen how you smile. How long have I been waiting For this longing to be waken?? To draw such bliss from a Kiss that may never be? And as of yet I cannot see we two dancing as in my dreams. Writing words that are mistaken, Dreaming dreams of steps not taken Hearing music I have forsaken Are you the Muse That amuses my dream? Adjure these dreams into reality.

Why aren’t we dancing
The thought of you binds me to this reality. As I trace you throughout my day. A scented flower, A dented scene- remind me. Day and night cemented In a dream Daylight borrows that I imagine what is real, to  what are dreams? Whilst the traces of you scream! What do they seek to steal? This hollowness only confuses The sorrow  my soul so kindly blesses Yet only the emptiness is real. Time to drink down this darkness Swallow this sickly swill. Pretend I no longer see you While I hope I always will. Knowing (without me) you are empty Looking for your fill. Do thoughts of me bind  you?
