Too much too soon
comes the storm
and the moon full
black rain melts
my soul down
a deep dark hole
I’m falling now
water flows
the mountain cold
hurts my whole
to know so much
and then so little
light can I feel now
the sound so loud
my deafening moan
my not so empty howl.

Green lights say go
a barrage of snow
there’s hope in words
the breeze will blow
the dusted road
yellow black
against the sky azure
my mind a blur.

©️JMCole

A candle in the dark
is a light in the heart
there is always hope.

Time is infinite now
Music carries the essence
Of a soul like an echo inside
Repeating rhythmically
Drumming through history
Thud thud thud
comes the love
Blue red is my blood
Blue was the colour
I caught from above
Like a train in my brain
Acid rain stains colour
Reclaims the lights flash
Either side a fairground ride
Alive inside my mind
Feels always like
I’m crashing into myself
Becoming someone else
Around around and through
The sound grounded open
Clouds bleed river deep
Chords fall tall
Midnight blue red soul
Peaks complete
Within the beat time ticks
Drips a feeling forgotten
Of seeing once
Without believing
Of dreaming twice awake
Then sleeping
Of falling thrice
inside my being.

©️JMCole

Alone and different
weird and distant
swimming drifting
absent missing
in dereliction sifting
ash stained memories
kissing wistfully
driven thorns
under roses unforgiving
notes echo misted
bliss is pleasure less
than drug fuelled lust
lasts only as long
as glass shatters
black then red
I feel dead
I think about you
then I detach
nothing lasts.

©️JMCole

What if I die
before I'm born
what if my heart
can't live in a wall
what if what if
the sky falls
and the grass
no longer grows tall.

©️JMCole

The water is good,
helps go back to the beginning
I remember my existence there
I went back 20 years,
time has no meaning
ticking crazy always
in the head
is the blue of my dread.
Used to have walls all tall
now nothing there
to absorb the fall.
Always thinking in rhyme
feel like I'm losing my mind
love to dive times five
1 in 9 is fine
love is sacred
double three following me
like the moon drowning
drowning in my sea
looking always
for the sky inside of me.
Ay, she makes me shy
but I need that light,
electric blue
I got the sound
like grey drizzle
drowning in shame
on my knees
begging an escape
looking always
straight at fate.
