Hold me close to your chest,
and slit my throat

With my final gasp of air,
i'd say "i'm sorry for staining your shirt"
Charly Feb 27
Consumed with screens,
trapped in its digital confides
a life of numbers, a life of lies
forgetting Mother Nature and the escape that she provides.

Constrained by numbers,
a slave to the letters written in ink
Big Brothers always watching...
That's what we've been trained to think

Do yourself a favour,
go outside and have a laugh
live your fleeting life,
before the moments passed.
Charly Feb 23
79p
79p Cola, on shelf for sale
an army of 2L bottles, stacked in crates no more than 5

£1.20 water, the cheapest you can find
alone in a row, isolated by its kind

waiting for deployment,
they both sit in the cold

but only the 79p Cola
is taken, checked out, and sold

I never really understood the waves,
that was until the moon found me.

showed me how to sway
from side to side,
riding the waves with her by my side.

I never really understood the waves,
that was until the moon left me.

ripples and crashes,
tsunamis and floods
thought to be normal for an ocean like me.

I still don't understand the waves,
they hurt and slam
they weave and whisper.
Waiting for a new moon to help guide me through

The Waves
Charly Jan 10
Split nails, wonky hair
bent fingers, haunting glare

the broken boy, shattered by life
still whole outside, aware of the rest

digital style, fractured mind
overwhelming thoughts, built up inside

the broken boy, waiting for a release
hugging and screaming, begging for peace.
Charly Jan 1
your fireworks scared my dog,
not cool.
