the bells ring and ring
distant and unimportant
but they speak warning.

Need You

Be my hope, please do
For who am I without you?

No Room

Too much in my head
Voices, songs, condemnation
There's no room for you.

Sense

I don't understand:
What you say just makes no sense;
Speak clearly, or leave.

Pounding

It pounds in my head
Pain reaching into my heart
I wish it would leave.

Over

Drowning in sorrows
He flounders in the depths, gone
His chance over, gone.

Hour

Waiting for the hour
I look in expectation
For when you arrive.

Brain

I think that my brain
Decided it was too used
And took the day off.

Glue

I depend on it
It keeps my head together
Music is my glue.

Sky-Blue

Today, the sky's blue
Though my stomach is queasy
And my heart throbs.

Insomnia

Begone, foul beast;
Your presence is not wanted:
Leave me forever.

Overtake

No one is awake
The hour is late and dark
Thinking overtakes.
