A War child is taken
Eaten by the solitude of a wasted war
For what gain do they feel
For what land
For what sea

These wars that pain so many
Yet solve no peace
A war child hidden
Tears me hard
Dusted faces
Forever broken
Skin of porcelain

I see land from the full to the empty
Such vastness to spare
Yet fight as we do
Regardless no care
No worry of life
Gone

The child no more
After scenes not wanted
The madness of life
A life not started
The photo's
Made
The flash not blinding

Yet
Peace is simple
Peace is free
Peace is out there
Let the chains break free
Let the children see
Let them be

A child

Selfish

The selfish edge
Is a place I like
Is my world's delight
it's my home I praise
Is a sod you
Face

This space I own
Is free ya know
No tax
Not yet is said
Till last my
Breath

This grid I'm on
Has long since gone
I'm free you see
The way for sure
The selfish
Me

The Broken Way

Head bowed to feed the floor
(what else do you want from a broken man )
Crack's in my pavement
Find these pacing my skull
(What did you expect from eyes that fire forgot to light)
The same is the same
Dull
Grey
Old
This self pity is a fighter thats lost the way
A fighter
Gone the cause
Accepted to the future
This life
A life that's shut the door
The path is long
I see no end
A call from a friend
A nod from a stranger
Bow
I say
Don't let them see
Your eyes
Embarrassed by my fallen
The grey is in the sky

gLUTTony

Gluttony feeding from my dreams
Be their faces filled hunger
Watching
Waiting for my slip
Lear in their thoughts
For they dribble the fat of the land from their lips
The hungry doth need of food
Be it my soul

I dare not stare
I dare not look
My spine is frozen
My mind is cracked
Feel them crawling within
See my skin ripple from their thoughts
They know my taste
They know my aim
They want to feed
Hunger tastes

The place became the empty
My time was near to move
They waited at their tables
Ready for my doom
A dash this far I nearly got
Yet move I did not go
The hunger in their hypno eyes
This end
My sudden woe

Lonely

Body aches a thousand ways
Those missed sweet whispers
From your lips
Lost to the scent of heaven

Your love leaves my skin
This hand reaching air
For your touch
Only a cold life forwards
Do I dwell

Come back before
My world
Don't leave my love
Behind
Come back into warm
The cold is biting

Sighs to the rain of tears from my face
These windows to my soul
Lakes of emptiness
Full of regret
Come back to once our life

Come back
My love
Come back
I'll change
Come back
To us
It's cold outside

No words do enter to silenced thoughts
So loud this heartbeat
Now dead
My cause
It's lost
It's over
The fool I am
My body weeps
I'm lonely am

My Love You

Drips of my soul fall onto melted glass
My mind's inner feelings
Shaken to hurt
Missed by a minute

The pain that you want
My failure to find
My failure to give

...........................

You gave me away as I sought out your
kind
I wanted your body
I wanted you mind

No doubt in my world that you
Fight me away
My head is so broken
Please love me and stay

My heart is on empty
The blood drained away
Yet hear it still beating
My love please
Let you stay

Will you find my life
To keep me from harm
I need inner peace
I need lover's calm

The day comes round early
The beast is alive
My soul is on fire
My love you
My life

The Poet

My eyes see
Yet the don't understand

They think I'm a freak
Freak of the land

They gaze at me wanting
My need for success

They think I'm a madman
I know I'm the blessed

They dont get my picture
The skill I do waste

A madness inside me
A waste of this space

One day they'll remember
The drink we once had

The drink with that poet
No handed they grasp
