Annoys me when you think I'm weak,
When I've seen my own father die,
Kept a straight face when I had bad results,
Stabbed myself with a safety pin,
Fallen backwards onto my head,
Ripped a tendon but refused hospital,
Chipped half my tooth and waited for a week,
Get brain freeze whenever I eat something cold,
Have a constant pain in my right shoulder,
And dull ache in my jaw,
Sunburnt my scalp,
Torn hair out because the knot was too big,
Had to defend my own work,
Had friends that are self absorbed,
Plans that weren't meant to be,
So I really think I can put up with,
You falling out of love with me.
Behind these bars is where I pace,
This is my castle, my place.

Behind these bars I tick day by day,
Waiting for my que to get away.

Behind these bars I remember why,
Why I need to wait for these days to pass by.

Behind these bars my mind drifts,
To when I stole an elevator lift.

Behind these bars my heart sinks,
I remember drowning a foe in alcoholic drink.

Behind these bars I recollect,
On when I made a teacher infect.

Behind these bars I stand once more,
For breaking down every door.

Behind these bars I think of the irony,
In the fact that all my troubles are inside of me.

Behind these bars, I never break through,
cos you're as dangerous to me,
As I am to you.
I catch the stars as they fall from the sky,
Each of them is a sparkle of 'why?'

I brush the space dust with a broom,
To tidy the hair of the man on the moon.

I catch satellites as they whirl,
As the lack of communication makes me hurl.

I swipe the light into the black hole,
To show the deep deep cold.

My hand waves the gravity away,
As all weight fades fade fades.
let's escape,
get away for awhile,
together, anything can be accomplished,
and we will conquer the world,
start our own civilization,
loving everything we do
each new adventure we embark will be magic
other people we shall forget because they're tragic
once we've adapted there's no turning back
more love for one another than we've ever had.
-
we are strangers in mask,
to disappear,
our task,
to run behind a cape,
willing yourself,
not to break,
to roam lost land,
no one in sight,
to hold your hand.
It tangles, twists and twines,
loop the loop around your neck.

bounces and flounces,
swept in the wind.

knotted and split,
frayed at the ends,

tamed with a plastic,
tied into place,

only for it to slip,
and envelope your nape
.
funny how you said, you didn't want to hurt me,
when all you've done is leave scars in my memory,
and wounds in my heart.
Hey little girl,
Yes you with the curls,
And the shadows beneath your eyes,
Don’t let words get you down,
And boys make you frown,
Hold your tiara head up high,

Yes you little girl,
With the halo blonde curls,
Don’t be afraid of the dark,
For nothingness is our neighbour,
The fruit of our labour,
The comfort when you lie stark,

You, the little girl,
That craves diamonds and pearls,
Beauty, riches, she twirls,
In her short dress that grazes her thighs,
Girl, you’re meant to be wise,
Don’t flaunt what you’ve got,
Don’t act like you’re hot,
That’s all you’ve been told,
Cover up and act cold,

Silly little girl,
Playing the rules,
Trying to fit the idea of the tools.
this feeling bubbles up,
from the cauldron below,
the hot smoke pushes through,
my organs that were once snow.

salivary glands seep,
and mouth becomes too big,
as this gripping pain,
dig, dig, digs.

the spew of my tangled thoughts,
this my coping mechanism,
exposes all the evil,
as if my own exorcism.
I don't know what I am anymore,
all i do is lay on the floor,
thinking of you,
and all of the things I need to do.

I slowly slip to the next room,
and slide away down the flume,
and continuously ponder,
why I've gone yonder.
