In my dream
andy fardell Apr 2012
In my dream I see a face not known
a place not home and a life of sorrow
In my dream I see a time gone by
a wonder why and a drunken hollow

In my life Ive seen a man fall down
a drunken row and a screaming horror
In my life Ive seen a life be born
a woman scorned and day of scatter

In my world I want the people free
a pain relief and food for all
In my world I want a roof to cover
a greed gone by and a cure for cancer


All these things are here already ...
all these thoughts are free
all we need to get that way
Is wish a better day

She
andy fardell Sep 2013
She
The bed lays cold under your heart
White sheets adorn the lifeless room
Yet the sorrow in your look
That lovingness from those black sparkling eyes
Shivers the soul

Still you wait the return
The day to turn to a burning russet red
Where all rules are broken
For she who controls the past controls ..
The future

The Face Behind The Mask
andy fardell Aug 2014
The August felt like November
and my mood followed
suit
A wind that held no silence

From a cool blow that battered
me
As if
I wasn't bruised enough  

For I was the broken one
A mind so empty of full
In a world so barren of soul
And so I pained

I pained for others
I pained for help
I pained for relief

From this madness we call Earth

No pills to change my eyes
No laughters
Fill my heart

These tears are all but wasted
Left
I'm left the all behind

The walk into the emptiness

I'll join the blinkered mass
Condition red
We fall in line

The face behind the mask

Door of death
andy fardell May 2012
Into the black ...into the night
the door of death appeared ..no given fright
so sudden and so quiet
its ready for your soul
so sleep a little tighter as the devil takes it goal

Into the black... into the night
the door of death awaits you so give in..goes the fight
no pain or sudden anguish
no body to give fight
its time to take your place in hell thus join the chains of harm

For me there is no worry for waiting list is long
I'll be another 70 years before i come along
by then you'll be a master of chains around your neck
a weight upon your shoulders a well you should expect

The waiting room
andy fardell Feb 2012
Hearts beat another day
as life begins another thrown away
Times in wait another state
yet we all do follow the path
till end of days

Shame on life as time stands on time
to have wasted such a gift a wasted shift
mournful looks from the followed
as a sigh within goes unspoken
hear the din

Need the new to awake our eyes
as nature turns another tide
yet never seen within these ways
wall of steel stand blinded looks
a feel ....a lost lost touch  

no matter which the room the wait begins
it all becomes a wasted end
a name to carry in from the past
a voice hidden a record blast
a look from a face broken looked back

Hear me cry
andy fardell Feb 2012
here in my soul is a place i know so well
it hides all my fears my lies all my hurts
here in my head is a place that no --one see's no-one knows
seeing is hiding or so its told
knowing is telling no-one till im old

here in my heart is a place that few do see
it holds my wife my son my family
hidden from the all
hidden till i be free

here in my body is a man so fowl
so bad its smell so ...so evil pure is hell
face the mask that hides the real
face the madness face that lives

here is me that no one cares
here is me that fights the fears
hear in me a man that breaks the rules

hear me cry a crying soul

Paint Me Black
andy fardell Sep 2014
The cold of the night hid my grief
Rid my longing
Stole my colour
And painted me black

Inside I was dead
Empty
Wasted for the scrap
Crying from a future
On ears of silent

My dark look ahead
lights all blinkered out
Wishing I was gone
Washed
To screams of a shout

He laughs at all my sadness
Weeps his tears of joy
The angel from the dark side
Plays his music  

Wake me into sunlight
Wake me from this world
Hold my hand complete me
Wash the black away
Wash it all
Away

heart
andy fardell Jul 2011
My heart cries a thousand beats into the night of dreaded heat
feeling so that feelings go ..dam the past and blow the blow
see the sky turn into red ..calmness falls do we forget

future lies not with this earth ..yet we hang for all its worth
money had its place in past ..time to move on do behast
head feels from another world ..heart is dying for the cause

The Floor
andy fardell Aug 2012
The floor is where I'm at yet outside living ain't that bad
this way inside my head just gets me here ...
and dam I'm mad !!!
these other thought's do over
the love and feel
bowl me over

Today I'm on the floor yet standing with me
we are tall
to hold hands and look up
to fight the nasties ...wish us luck
I know I'll bounce right up with you beside me
up and up !!!!!!

Lets climb and touch the skies
the sun is shining reach up high
the floor was where we was
but never ever down we look
the limit up above
lets take the moment
up the live !!!

My Love You
andy fardell Feb 2013
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

Let me In
andy fardell Feb 2013
Wake me up in to the new day
See the sun
Blind my soul
Feel It's danger  
Warm to my skin

Let me feel the grass
Through my toes
Wet
Cool
Damp
Smells of summer

Let me walk
Feel the air
Breath the morning
See our life

Hear the birds sing
Feel the earth
Beat to a rhythm
Let me hold your hand

Be my morning
Be my sun
Let me hold your heart

Join me
Never part
Let me in

I remember
andy fardell Apr 2012
Rainbows danced upon the water
magical crests of white form from the blow
slithers of sun amongst the rain
showed shadows of light in the bleak dew
The tide was for turning
as wind stormed across the sea

black turned the blue a waters life
darkened from a beautiful cruel
the seas revolt
I remember

I remember .............

feel the wind
andy fardell Oct 2011
feel the wind blow through me as I wander up through time
wandering where my past is and all thats left behind
staring at the moon ,it side we only see
im left to feel the wind blow softly feel the breeze

thoughts on freinds and loved ones that fell away in pasts
wondering on their lifes now ..did they really last
are they in the sun and feeling good on earth or maybe six foot under
pushing up the dirt

wonder if they feel the wind like i feel ...so fresh
do they ever think of me ..has my thoughts been left
will someone remember me for being who i am
will they feel the wind like me ..i hope they really can

Empty
andy fardell Aug 2014
Empty soulless eyes look back in the mirror
How do I tell them where it all went wrong
How do I tell myself the truth
I've fell into the system
I've given up the ghost
The few they have there puppet
The master class
My host

I used to own the world outright
My dreams became my life
All gone ,I'm *******
All cleaned you see
The in has gone all out

For now I live my life
This way
A martyr to the throne
All wasted on the beer of life
The washed away
Alone

Pieces of Eight
andy fardell Jul 2024
Pieces of Eight

The piece fits yet my heart cries a sorrow
Saddened and lonely as I walk the dusted path
Flowers trodden,grass all straw my heaven all a front
These tears a drowning pool

Last night was nearly over
This breath a rasp of roars
A fight on the continue
I live another day

So I must sparkle in this madness
Make every second count
You'll never know the ending
Blackness broken out
406 · Jun 2015
I love you
andy fardell Jun 2015
The day is as long as it is short
For I have seen it most
As most have dreamed
Awaken all who wish to know
The longest of days

As
Inside me feels complete
This heart of happiness
Beats strong and loud
For my love

And I will shout it out loud on this day
The longest of days so all can hear

I love you

sun so shining yet feeling oh so cold
winter lining still has its hold
teeth that do chatter to shiver through my bones
see my air be breathing ..god its ****** cold
wind that be blowing round my little home
summer hurry up i want it hot not cold

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


sun so shining yet feeling oh so cold
feel the finger of the ice man grappling ..grabbing hold ..
winters lining still out there not giving up the ghost
wanting ,freezing life.. still freeze me to the bone
teeth that do chatter ....no sound that says hello
they click and do clatter no stopping in this cold
see my breath be breathing...crystals in the air
******* warm from in me chilling me i fear
wind doth blow right round me even in my home
get the fire burning oh my god its cold

Our Song
andy fardell Sep 2012
Smokey rays of light fell through the trees
As I danced to our song
In faint perfumed winds I could
sense you my love

This was our music
This was our life
To dance with you darling
To be by my side

Our song made me smile
Our song made me laugh
Had been in denial
As love made its grasp

This was our music
This was our life
To dance with you darling
To be by my side

Ten clover tickled toes
Still moist from the dew
As I danced to you with me
I danced and I knew

This was our music
This was our life
To dance with you darling
To be by my side

Sweet memories still hold me
As if your still here
To dance with my lover
To smell you so near
404 · Sep 2014
Alone
andy fardell Sep 2014
Into these eyes
I drink from your smile
Feed from your lips
As I wonder
Alone

All through the day
I dream of your say
In a hope that you'll see me
As I wonder
Alone

In the night of my darkness
I know that your near me
Just waiting to hold me
As I wonder
Alone  

Tis my place to be with you
To love and release
Our runaway peace
As we wonder together
Home

Holding Hands
andy fardell Jun 2013
Gravel under foot to the crunch that
echoed into my memories
For she had gone
Into the distance of a time not ready
for my soul

My time was still here
My garden still in bloom
Yet I knew she waited for my fall
Waiting for the chorus to call my day

Legs that carried me through the mire
Now felt tired and weak in the day
I could still smell her musk
Next to me
Teasing me to another tear
Ripping me to a thousand pieces
Life for another year

The garden still needs me and
I need it
But still I must walk
Cry through the pain
To the ends of this earth
So I can lay in peace
Holding hands

Lonely
andy fardell Jan 2013
The room seemed lonely
The room seemed bare
I knew you sat beside me
That look
That laugh
That stare

But now the seats gone cold
As my hand touches
Your not there
Yet I know
You are right by me
I miss you
And I fear

My memories start to fade
From a pictures haze
Your mark is burning out
All worn
A started doubt

No one else remembers
Your kindness
And your love
No one else remembers
The good you did
For good

The Broken Way
andy fardell Feb 2013
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

This Christmas
andy fardell Dec 2014
Ears that bleed
On a call not wanted
Eyes doth weep
Cries
On these scenes of a madness

All in a day
For the eve of this Christmas
For done is the will
Tis cherished
Our life

Your time is not measured
It's us as we
Are
Lucky to live
Be born from this star

Christmas
This Christmas
Remember the fell
Do bless all the loved ones
So live
Live it well

Scars
andy fardell Mar 2014
Into the four corners of my mind
Sat the monsters
Quietly sleeping
As I searched for their wake

The time to ripple was nearly upon us
Scars ready for the burst
The never ending **** of failure  
Would be haunting

So the tickle has begun
Wake my soul
Shake these bones
My talons felt thirsty

From the four corners of my mind
Dead eyes now shone
Rasping breaths devoured the stench
The wake had begun

Gangman Style
andy fardell Nov 2012
The clouds seem grey today
Is it me I hear you play
Was no mood for laughing loud
Feel the deepest darkest howl

Started like the fun I have
Then the clouds of grey bit back
So I is here to feel the mood
Black and grey all coloured blue

Let's hope the wind does do its job
Blow my mind ...blow the lot
Bring that sunny sunshine smile
Make me happy Gangman style

My Autumn
andy fardell Oct 2012
The day started in my eyes
Blood red views from a sleep still in motion
Bitter in the cold of a dawn still fighting a dusk
ravaged by the cool winds of autumn

A look backed by a glance forward
as light betrayed the scene of dying leafs
Slow and gentle brought by the gusts they glided to this earth
ready to become at one at my feet  

To the trees so rattled in the after life of russets
this was their dawn this was their day
Stripped to be bare by the black of the night    
The smell in the air was ready

Winter's fall was coming and time was moving on
My life seems so much older now
This green has gone all grey
Bones aching for a summer glow
A shell in slow decay

I feel it even more now the dread of winter's day
No magic cream to hide from the cracks of life in hand  
No wand to young the age on time this second passed me by  
My autumn is here
This is my way in life  
Time to change the future a step fall back in time

Life was young
andy fardell Aug 2013
Drips of life fell into my dreams
As the rain leached onto my window
Echoes bouncing as I struggled for the light
Another day needs a beginning

Still as I wake the pain returns
Aches from a body faded to grey
Years of the enslaved bite my unseen
wounds
Once the days were good

Life was young then
Life was free and I cared no further
Only now do my regrets take their toll
As my mind smiles through a face in pain
Bitten are the yellow stains in my grin

Take me
Take me from this ever decreasing circle
That lays claim for my body
Show me the other turn
Claim me for the better off in life
Cold is the dawn

Cold is my life
The empty bed leaves no comfort
From my curse to stay  
Life work me hard so my pain can continue
Let my destitution come true
My day has begun
394 · May 2013
Let us dance
andy fardell May 2013
How would you dance
On a moonlight eve
Would you twinkle to the stars  
Light the earth in a beat

Let us dance

How would you kiss
In a sun turned away
Would you shine in my eyes
Light my heart in a breath

May I kiss you

How would you love
In close as we lay
Would you hold me so tight
Take my life taketh me

Yes I love you

My only escape
andy fardell May 2012
Dawn has broken as a light seeps in
My day is starting a mind begins
Some sound in my head from a radio blast
That wont go away again.. I hope it don't last

The burden within to pay all the bills
to wake a new day and drudge through the pills  
My day not quite started yet dreaded from quills
My only release in a dream from within
a check from old numbers a life I could win
My only escape is 10 million to one
My dream... my sad lifeline and still its just dawn  

My pillow is calling yet up I must go
My life must roll on now
all gone all the thrills
I turned to an ant and followed the lead
and now I am punished
still hope for my dream

In the smeg
andy fardell Feb 2012
I cannot doubt whats in my head
the way i feel the waking dead
I cannot help the world I see
the fires out the death in me

I want to be a use in life
but whats the point when nature lies
I feel the want to be out there
into the open fresh the air

The time will tell the end of time
in all its all a waste of rhyme
so wake up dead and face death stare
another day like in the ****

Fade Away
andy fardell Dec 2012
Darkness all around me
As I lay about to sleep
Was thinking of the future
Was future without me

Would I wake to see the light
A new day born I hope
Or would my body fade away
Last breath gone up in smoke

I guess you know the answer
As I sit here writing this
But are you here to read
my thoughts
To share my wakened bliss

I'll never know the answer
Unless you speak through god
Or maybe we will meet again
Along well trodden path

My thoughts of black did hide
A deep and darkened fear
Was I about to miss all this
A fate
Nor goodbye cheer

I know
I know the answer
Will come to me
One day

When I have passed
upon this earth
These words just
Fade away

They build as if we want them
Houses

Prisons with no hope

Layers of life before me
Hide the hidden
Hidden from our view

Workers paid to pay the workers
Slaves to the

This is our life
We call it
Laughing life in our face

What hope is held against
us
Fed us every day
The green that is our Soylent

Remember this one day

The Great War
andy fardell Aug 2014
The great war
Wasn't that great
9 million soldiers killed
20 million wound
Yet still these medals of courage stand tall
In my home
Watched everyday
loved and cared for
for they lived so that I may live

That great war
Wasn't so great
Where a boy aged just 12 fought for his land
Gave his present for our future
A stand we should so bow
For our shame of today

Our shame of today
Where money leads the way
Yet doesn't exist
Where profit before humanity
Rules the world
My eyes see the news
They bleed in disbelieve as the shells pour down
As ears weep to the horrors of a child's cry

The great war
Wasn't that great
Only the poppies of hope
Do stir my wishes
Of a change
Of a world without fear
A world where our leaders
Change
So the great war....
Was it that great.. after all?

Too Young
andy fardell Nov 2012
Vanilla fog filled my body
A taste quite sweet yet its bitter pill
burned my mouth
Hurt my body
Stung my eyes

In the dark no mercy for the good
No way out for the end
Too young to die
Too young to fly
See a wronged goodbye

A journey to far
Be his bright shining star
As wings carry him high
For a friend in he lives

Burn so the pain in hearts
close to him
Sad for the sorrow
A missed goodbye grin

Crying not over for a loss
still so raw
Bitter and twisted for the road
Dam the fall
Heaven is a place
Be a knock on his door

Sad
andy fardell Apr 2013
Sad
You sound so sad it was said
Be my memories broken
Is my face so read
Does my voice not hide the weakness
Do they ever know within

Masks in a park
All looking like they know
Smiles form the jokes
From no funny lines
Rehearsed

And so it continues
From news not to be heard
Such hate
All perverse
In papers only use
For warmth

Inner sighs fall
For the night has it call
From the coffee now cold
Like my mind
Right as they knew
My sadness grew

Whispering Night
andy fardell Mar 2014
See my face as I walk into the crowd
Another wasted moment  
Watch me melt away
Feel my breath
Faded
Lost into the forest of your dreams

The tasteless drink falls from my lips
My train likes to roll and sway me
This keeps me safe amongst the people
In my hidden life I feign

Smells of the earth from worn leather
I hope they fed well in their time
For now I was thirsty and my enemies
Close

The day goes on
And on

The sounds continue and the voices shout
My world is screaming
Change your life
Get of the bus
Remove that cloak
The fear is old ..the love all gone
Yet the train keeps coming
My heard is loud

Into the whispering night I stay
I like the moon glistening silver shadows
Feeding these eyes of hope
See the twinkling diamond dance and leap towards me
Feel the silence as I walk on frosted strands
Everything looks beautiful
All is fine
This new world is mine all mine

Son
His smile just said it all
A look
A laughing call
It melted me inside
My love is pure to never die

His age scare still my soul
As tall as trees in fall
He towers over me
My treasure that he be

A glint that made me warm
The laugh all in his charm
My proudest and my life
Yes my son you are my pride

Yet who do I owe the most
My wifey's love ..a suffering host
She's good and makes me proud
My son ...Our son

Broken Heart
andy fardell May 2013
See I knew it
I'd read the score
When she looked back
My love's amore

When she looked back
My heart fell out
One love one way
There is no doubt

I should have listened
Learned the rules
Played the pirate
Played the fool

But like a fish in the ocean
I'd never learn
The baited hook
The wriggly worm

See it was the eyes
That won me over
A grey of green resist
Did send a shiver to my heart
The falling of the cliff

Oh how I wish that she would stop
Please please come back this way
Don't look round and walk the walk
I love you babe please stay

3 weeks have passed
My heart still waits her  
Wishing for the key to lock
I think she's gone
I think she's left me
Shipwrecked in the land forgot  

Will I listen
Will I learn
I doubt my feelings  
I doubt  my heart
For all that we do take on board
Won't educate this broken heart

Pain
andy fardell Dec 2012
Eyelids that wont close as
dawn awakes
Oh the dread of another
day

Pain behind my eyes
Yet no end from the pills
that blind my soul

Lifeless in a world so full
of gold
So full of hope
Torture from the past
Now hunting for my very future

Pain behind my eyes
Yet no end from the pills
that blind my soul

Stretching ...waking
Yet sleep evades another days
night

Pain behind my eyes
Yet no end from the pills
that blind my soul

See the world from a place
A place in fear of death
Light into my eyes show
no life begun
Just a past behind

Pain behind my eyes
Still no end from the pills
that blind my soul
Till the dust takes my breath

Remember
andy fardell Nov 2012
Remember what they fought for
Remember why they fell
Remember all the killings
The living life in hell

Remember what they did for us
Remember who they were
Remember all the people
That they did fight and fall

A day to show our pride
A day to bow our heads
A day to mourn our family
Lest we forget
andy fardell Mar 2014
As you read these lines I will etch out into your mind my nothingness
See I am the words that you seek
I am the lost pages from a book that will never open
You will never know me
Or my title

My world is our world and what you see and hear
Can never be written
Can never be read
Observed ...yes
Till you forget me and my nothingness  
For then you will continue
Carry your life
Remember that you will not remember
Me or my words

Poetry In Motion
andy fardell Jan 2019
I watched as he etched
Blue colours so fine
A face that he painted
All hidden and light
Looking and staring he knew not I write
The man and his drawing
I studied his plight

Looking once more in my study
My itch
I needed to look at his drawing
So rich
The man he did scribble I see not his face
Intriguing my wanting
My look out of place

Now do I approach him
A tap or a smile
The man and his drawing
A wandering while
Do I disturb this master at work
The etch of the finest

liquid life
andy fardell Oct 2011
I saw the sheets of steel fall across the sky..
the wonders of life dressed in a cloud
darkness portrayed yet new life reaching out
to smell the rain before its due.. to feel its power
earths life has new buds about to bore fruit

drops as big as stones bounced of the soil
markin the earth that was so ready to give
drenched in the liquid of life
so simple yet so strong

such a beauty to see life born to be free
clouds open their souls and relinquish their hold
as earth takes a breath a new dawn born again
I bow to the beauty that eyes let me see

My hand to touch your lips
Tastes of heaven
Lovers kiss
In my arms
My love our love

The pain when your not here
Hurts me inside
I tremble
Fear
Love

Your whisper traps me
Holds me
Takes me
I love your voice
Husky high

So take my hand
Come walk with me
I'll show you sky
We'll be in heaven
Our love

Let us sing to the angels
A voice for all to hear
Our lives forever lovers
All one for all
In love
Our love

Shades of
andy fardell Mar 2014
Blood shot eyes stare back at me blindly
Is that really me now looking so old
Lines upon lines
Do you hear me laughing

Peppered hair that did shone brown
All faded away to the shades of grey
Fifty ??
Not here been a while me thinks

Well the years were good
Think I lost a few way's
Memories aging
The sweet shop fade

So I look in the mirror
It looks at me
All dreams gone and faded
My own believe

I'm stuck in the future
The stone is cast
A ripple is out there
This fade my last

Deep breaths as you dawn this
For you will see
Your life is your own live
Just look at me

Wave goodbye to the sea
andy fardell Sep 2012
The salty cool spray hung in the air
as the waves gently broke to the shore
White feet ventured onto warm soft sand
Little hands escaped from grasps to greet the sea
This is our ocean
This is our life

Squeals of laughter as icy cold water
Splashed around me from the dancing to waves
Tiny feet daring me to follow
as bucket filled shells gather to be castles  
Love is our ocean
Love in our sea  

Tiny voices half buried in the sand
Building barriers against the tide
Sea was winning  
The sea always wins
Share in our ocean
Share in our sea

Slowly as the sand falls away
The waves regaining the beach  
Gone is the castle ..
Well just for today
as we wave goodbye to the sea
Wave goodbye to the sea

Must I
andy fardell Mar 2013
Belittle my mind as nature does its
Work
The droop in my lids feeds this passion
In these fingers work's a
Bone

See's my head feel a sway
Seen thoughts come and pass
Me
This sleep I must lay
Fog in my clouds as I struggle to
keep

This body on meltdown
Awake I must
Stay
The writing continues
The coffee feels
Great

A zombie this feeling a scream
Be it fake
My life is of dreaming
This writing dictates

Sleep a little my friend
Slowly to fade
The page will be waiting
Wet ink
Still my mend

Brittle
andy fardell Jul 2020
Be I brittle tonight
simple
sad
this lonely

Be I crackled tonight
edgy
Quiet
This tired

Be I me tonight
Waiting
Wanting
This lying

Brittle and cold
Cometh ready to snap
Branches of old
I fight thee

To Know
andy fardell Nov 2013
I hear the music play
And I smile
With a sound from a years gone past
My heart warms
And I smile
......................
How the crackled fire plays
From a time of yesterday
I see you there watching me
Loving me
Holding me
A mothers look
A care behold
My life in her love

Such a shame she cut me
Hurt the very me
Burned my own existence
Scorched this soul
Scarred for a generation
Left me
Cold

What could I have been
Now
Then
Would I have life
Bore from a kindness
Alas I will never want
To know

For now she is gone and my eyes hurt
A little less
Now I have a love
that loves me as I love her  
For she knows and See's my pain
She is there for me
She is my life
