Doctor, Doctor
Who are you?
You don't know me
What can you do?

Patronise me,
Make me feel like ****,
Give me my meds,
Tear me down
Bit by
Bit.

Doctor, Doctor,
Why are you here?
You locked me away,
Creating my biggest fear.

LET ME OUT,
I scream, I scream,
I look to the ceiling,
I dream, I dream.

Doctor, Doctor,
You said you'd help me,
You're a liar too,
Shapes is all I see.

White, White,
I miss this I do,
You took away my love,
Doctor, I blame you.

Doctor, Doctor,
Be my friend,
Just let me die,
This needs to end.

Escape.
Tap, Tap.
Scrape.
Sniff.
Awake.


Thank you my friend.

**The End.
I am alone
Snow drifts to the dead earth
Floating in gentle waves of cold malice
It sweeps across the perished
Seeming to devour us,
Me, my Haven, and the death surrounding us
The wind whispers across my frozen land
Gently caressing my Haven
No longer bringing feeble death to all
As there is no longer the living
This Haven is mine
It protects, shields
But provides no safety
Only I am left, trapped
I am forever here
Forbidden of leaving
I am left here with the perished
The victims of my Haven
Left with nothing
No emotion or other thing
No other being but me
Only emptiness
As they silently fall
My tears freeze
They will forever stay there
Just the as the ripples surrounding me
The frozen earth that was once my home
And has now become my haven
Forever surrounding me
Keeping me for eternity,
Keeping me from myself
Keeping me from pain and happiness alike
This, is my Haven

You broke me into such small pieces,
every shard,
with ever breath,  still pierces me
it cuts my breath short,
and leaves me gasping for air
I am cut
I am broken
and also
now I am heartless
I say,
Tell me about the last person who
Made your voice catch in your throat.

I want to know them through you.

You say,
Tension peaked and you couldn't
Breathe.

I don't care that it wasn't me.

If I could find a hundred people, and
Bring each one home to
****** breath from your lungs,

I would do it every day.

The passion in your words is deep enough
For me to bathe in and
I want to soak for hours.

Tell me more.

When you talk of how your stomach twisted
Into celtic knots,
Your hands shake with recollection.

I am hungry.

You feed me romantic lines about
People I've never met, yet
I see their faces in your eyes.

You absorb everything.

Teach me what it's like to be
A butterfly in your gut
And a tremor in your fingertips.

Absorb me, too.
This is part of my poetry challenge.
I am weary of theory
and  need  to practice some facts but my theory is laid back whilst my practice is backed up and I need to  separate the will from the want to,the need to , yet can't do.
There is a circus inside me and the clown cannot bide me, inside the cannon you'll find me,a shot in the dark.
There is no theory for that and Einsteins equations fall flat as the big top gets taller and I seem to get smaller,so I do what I can't do and will what I want too but I see right through me into another identity and I pity the theory that tries to get near me..

Roses are red.
My blood is the same.
Every single drop.
Flowing through my veins.
Roses are red.
Just like you said.
When you handed me a bouquet.
Filled with dread.
Roses are red.
Just like the sky.
On an evening night.
After we get high.
Roses are red.
Now you lay dead.
Overdosed.
In my bed.
?
I sometimes dwell on the past
Always around the time of season
When You said
"you're not the one for me"
You had eyes my dear
But I guess you just couldn't see
That I was willing to do whatever you wanted
Me to do
I would be whoever you'd want me to be
I'd follow you wherever under the stars
Even far beyond that
Maybe farther past the sun
But my time chasing after you
Now is done
