The spider,
Is hanging by a thread,
He made it himself,
What's going through his head?

He doesn't think,
How fragile it is,
A little wind,
Will be the death of him.

I could hug you,
I could hold you,
Only if I was closer;

I could feel you,
I could kiss you,
Only if I was closer;

My heart beats for you,
My soul screams for you,
I need your presence,
In my life;

Ever since we met,
I felt fulfilled,
The closer we get,
Our friendship we build;

I was stuck in a dark alley,
That led to nowhere,
I didn’t like it,
It wasn’t fair;

I looked around,
Searched for ages,
To find a way,
To get better wages;

Finally it’s here,
Finally I found it,
New road ahead,
In which I can fit;

I hope that this time,
I settle on this road,
And find my way,
To the top of the node.

No more questions,
No more requests,
You’re wearing me down,
I’m failing all my tests.

I had hopes,
I had dreams,
Thanks to this life,
None remains.

Society wants,
Society needs,
That’s all a waste,
But life proceeds.

Everyone wants me to behave,
While destroying my dream,
I need to live,
I just want to scream.

Is it so wrong?
That I don’t want,
What society provides,
It’s just a taunt.

Am I in the wrong?
worn down tired destroyed help society drained

I’m not healthy,
I’m not strong,
I run – I cough,
It feels so wrong;

I used to run,
For hours on end,
I started smoking,
Just to feel cool;

Now no more;

I eat and drink,
And then some more,
Cannot reach,
My feet anymore;

I will move,
I will diet,
Not for the looks,
It’s all for health;

I need self-control,
I need support.

Dark as the moon lit night,
Fragile as a flower,
I love you as a sister,
I hold you as my child.

I hold you,
I hug you,
you scratch me,
no reason to.

I still love you,
even though you brought me grief.

Love you Dixie

I just felt some pain
It surges through my body like electricity.
The blinding pain made me vain.
And reality is unforgiving.

My eyes burst in soundless tears.
Now I realise my helpless fears.

I can’t breath
I cannot flee
From the pain
That’s found in me
