Foolish

I was a fool.
A fool that believed,
And on your stage,
I acted my part flawlessly,
The way you wanted me to be.

Unlike you, I feel no
Peace in silence.

Unlike you, it offers
Me no rest, nor comfort.

Unlike you, nothingness only
Amplifies the voices in my head.

Unlike you, amidst the abyss,
They are my only friends.

Poison.

Ingredients: Despair
                      Frustration
                      Loneliness
                      Anger
                      Disappointment
                      Heartbreak

Mix them all together, and soon
This deadly concoction will pulse
Through my veins, a relentless,
Ever-present fire spreading
Across every fibre of my being,
Eventually reaching it’s final
Destination, engulfing my very soul.

Pen and Paper

A pen and paper
have always been my weapons of choice,
they helped me cope and come to grips,
they gave my sorrow a voice.

phantom pains

If only my scars were on the surface of my body. Then maybe you’d understand the burden of pain I have held.

what are you made of?

you inhale tragedies
and exhale poetry

From where do you get your perseverance?

The Cure

Sometimes there’s no better
antidote for an aching heart,
than a walk through a ghostly
mist of rain, discussing all the
mysteries of life and love
with an old, true friend.
