Ice
The price,
Double to thrice.

Mice still blind,
Twice across sliced
Bound and Diced.

Heart's heavy carts
Falling to parts,
Full of false starts.

Full of Fool Stars
And dreams
And empty of scars
I crawl from empty bars.

Ice was priced
It doubled then thriced,
In a sorrowful heist

You blinded mice,
Greed doubled twice
When you played the heist.
Cryptic like I like it.
Harry Roberts Jul 2017
You won't know
They don't know
I'm still suspended
In space, beautiful blooms deadheaded.

I couldn't flow
Couldn't write.
Blinders blocking sight,
Words unspoken in my throat,
A sea of death I wasn't afloat.
All that was lost was robbed

Left alone with with a heart that throbbed.

But I didn't understand,
Now I do,
All that rain reaps only more rain,
You must find fire for every droplet of water.
Find the inferno and burn to live,
Biologically driven, life's not yours to give.

You will breath,
You have your breathe,
You fight death
And will not leave.
You have choice
Just use your voice.
Heist PRT2 Is less cryptic with more personality.

His hands are gripping at my tail,
Hell born demons on my trail -
He thought he could bind me.

An angel in the sky
& I cannot align -
Please,
Wrought with confusion it just blinds me.

I cannot contain the pain is bursting from the frame
Man I hope that you hear this,
I still call your name when passion scorches rain
& I could almost be near bliss,
Then I'm well aware of the emptiness I share -
My bed it was made for a pair.

The man with golden teeth shares a soul with the Beast,
He sent me to a Hell dressed as Heaven.

I confess that I compressed my whole soul with this stress,
Once a mess of pure distress a naked flame I coalesce,
I turn into an inferno and I burn who dares caress,
I can heal and be better but first I must regress.

I'll forgive myself and say
That sometimes life goes this way
Maybe it's better not to stay
'Cause surely love finds its prey.

Have my body but my
Hearts mine baby,
Why'd I give you fuel
Just to burn me.
Play me,
Hell's hot.
You slayed me.

Now I hurt and I want the world.
Payed my dues
Now pay me!
Take me or
Just bury me
And let me sleep.

I paid my keep
And made my luck.
Shat on from heights
Lost but never stuck.

I move with violent motion,
Call me Ocean,
Silent Death
And hopes final
Breath.

Beings first breath,
And leaving when I
Cease breathing.

I'm more than me
I have life,
Less than Struggle with
Struggles strife.
Being burnt and bouncing back.
Harry Roberts Nov 2017
Tired of the hate
Tired of the love
Tired of the heat
I'm tired of this.

All these reasons
But I breath still.
When others left
I stayed still.

Wish I moved
Or lived a life,
Loved a little
Despite the strife.

Loved solidly,
Like my back
Harbouring a knife,
My love harbouring violence.

He dwelled and it grew
In the silence,
In the dark
It grew to be
More than a mark.

He shrunk to be less that Him,
I pray to Light,
That he won't dim.

But too late, it's gone,
Hate won over
Love had lost,
He became what he was made.
Society abscent of the cost.
Him
Harry Roberts Jul 2017
Him
He has a bone,
Not to pick but stick,
He wants me when he's like this
- Tossed out for being ******

He says he loves me
He buries himself inside of me,
I sacrifice my health to help him feel,
in the end I won't heal.

I'll feel ****, pure ***, truly empowered,
Just before I fall and feel *****.
Skin scrubbed in the shower,
Your scent won't leave me.

I wish you wouldn't leave me,
Bet i guess that's all there is
A place to feel loved,
Then leave when you're strong enough.

I wish you wouldn't leave me again,
But I guess that's that
And I'm only comfort.
I still don't wish it wouldn't happen again.
Thinking, Feeling and Writing. Quick poem I thought I'd share. Have a great day guys.
Harry Roberts Feb 2020
Tasteless senseless retarding my senses
Toxic neurotic and my flesh feels necrotic
I cannot stand the weight of this hate
Ears closed shut while you berate I can't take

Body was a temple now you pray at another
Our bodies used to tangle now eachother we just smother
We both knew we were drifting our values in life shifting
How you follow love to swallow till your sense of worth's hollow
I wallowed with sorrow seeking the light of tomorrow

Now worlds apart I can't help but wonder
If we could restart before we fell under
Would anything change or was this just the way
How the fates had arranged us caught in their sway.
Harry Roberts Sep 2020
Hold me like you miss me soothe my worries as you kiss me
Sorrow bittersweet while my eyes are feeling misty
Tomorrow is unwritten except for the bottom of a bottle of whisky.

If this is where we part then I might reclaim my heart
I can't relinquish my love and let all my joys depart
I can't walk one way while the chaos of life restarts.

I'm supposed to say goodbye but it feels like you won't go
It had always been the edge of temptation how did something grow
Tomorrow I'll see if our patterns change and what the changes show.

Hold me like you miss me while you soothe my spirit it's risky
Change sometimes doesn't happen even when life gets grisly
Tomorrow is unbidden but I won't face it miserably.
Love finds a way even when it runs through Hell.
Harry Roberts Nov 2017
So that was us
And all we were
Used for.
Simple
In its elegance.
Brutal
In its honesty.

That bridge,
Olive branch
Burn it down.
Never could
But ties I server
Burnt them all.
That Hell
I won't dwell,
Inferno
I'll learn them now.

I'll teach them how
Won't break them down.
Won't bless a crown
Don't stress the sound.

Won't mess the lot
Or miss the rot
Kiss the lot
and bless the spot.

Hell and Inferno
Burnt against my feet,
Live this bitter love
Until darkness I retreat.
Harry Roberts Jul 2017
You thought that
But truly I'm this,
Truly you only hiss
When it's me you miss.

What's that
What's this,
Ohh it's me you miss,
Missed-caught a toxic kiss?

Wandering like a stream
Leave you lost or so it seems
I effervesce into lonely steam
But with hope, still I teem.
Harry Roberts Feb 2019
Narcissism is a Hydra in your heart,
Confront one head & three others sprout,
Can't reach the end when it's just the start,
You take all you can and only leave doubt.

But I still love you and I'm part to blame,
When I'm with you I'm hugging my shame,
Love is a liar it turned into games,
Or it is as it was but now I see flames.

So I must stand strong and use my resolve,
Turn from what burns me and learn to evolve,
If I can be wiser then I'll break your mould,
Keep my eyes wide while I aim for my goal.
Hydra In Your Heart

I Wear My Skin,
I Am My Sin,
Took It From The Fire Made The Flames Go Dim.

If I Could Win,
I'd Earn My Wings,
But As The Bard Sings,

So That's Why It Stings.

That's Why We Hurt,
We're Looking For Gold
But We Only Find Dirt.
Shedding My Tears &
Acting So Curt,
Wiping My Eyes Against
Your Old T Shirt.

I Wear My Pride,
I Hurt Inside,
Took It From The Water So The Soul Could Revive.

I Know It's No Loss,
I'm Not On A Cross,
I'm Not Above You

I Didn't Mean To Be ******
I Didn't Mean To Be Hateful,
All The Drugs & What It Took
It's Left Me Here Unstable.
I Didn't Mean To Be Mean
I Didn't Mean To Be Ungrateful,
I Just Know I'm Half Mast

I Didn't Mean To Leave You (.)
But Left You I Did,
I Didn't Mean To Upset You (.)
So Upset So You Hid,
I Didn't Mean What I Meant
I Was Hard Like Cement,
I Didn't Mean To Vent My Spleen
Showed It All The Truths Is Seen.

I Don't Mean To Be Honest
'Cause Honesty Kills,
Ill Now I'm Stable I'm Taking My Pills,
Been Down In The Dumps From Jumping Of Hills,
I Wish To Be Healed & The Mantra Instills.

I've Set Myself Free From The Chains That Were Binding Me,
Written On Walls So The Words
Are Reminding Me,
Healing & Mending In My Mind I Am Finding Me,
The Truth Was So Ugly But Now Its Not Blinding Me.

If I say what I think
It's like claymore hit our link
If I say what I mean
It's like you've walked inside my dreams.

If my nightmare makes you shudder
In confession where you utter
Make the priest spit and stutter
Praying to Mary sanited mother.

If the truth takes a tole
Steals a portion of your soul
Makes you sin for your goals
Fills your aura with black holes.

Then welcome to the start of it
You might just lose your heart in it
Enjoy you're time in dystopia
The underworlds utopia.

To Me Back From You,
The Dysfunction You Spew,
But I Had No Clue.

Now It's All Ending,
Your Done Pretending,
I'm Done Defending,
Mistakes I'm Left Mending.

Bridges All Weathered,
Free But Was Tethered,
From Him I've Been Severed.

Now I Am Saved,
& The Streets Golden Paved,
I Crawled From The Grave,
To A Long Emptied Cave.

Life Isn't Comforting,
You Weather The Season,
In My Own Company,
I Found A Reason,
Choose To Live Comfortably,
Ignore The Treason.

Illusions and comforting lies I lay with each night
Though these are my ties to this earth
These voices just hinder my worth
These thoughts just kindle my fright,
Will I be alright?

Paths how they diverge I lean to the left
Selling my blood so my hearts is bereft
Drop down I'm dead oh this bit's in jest
Frame as a joke before they digest.

Make it mean nothing, alas I digress.

I couldn't bear to see it sink and fade into the black
Thinking back to brighter things but nothing seems to distract
I love you like I loath you and I can't get over that.

I left my cares on the counter when I picked up my keys
Slammed the door shut because I couldn't believe
People portray purity when their minds are diseased
Just expect to get not a thanks or a please.

Disenchanted by the dirt
Emboldened by the lies
Should this **** still hurt
When I want to say goodbye.

It's the personality leaving bodies like casualties you hurt all you touch and cause fatalities
Reared on a downward ***** so you can't help the decline
Calamity feels safer then balance when structure is maligned.

I left my feelings in a box weighed down with rocks by our spot on the docks
I couldn't chuck it in but I wouldn't take it back
I couldn't bear to see it sink and fade into the black
Thinking back to brighter things but nothing seems to distract.

I love you like I loath you and I can't get over that.

**** Me Down,
Don't Kick Me Down,
Don't Make Me Frown,
In Tears You'll Drown.

Lie To Me,
Don't Lie To Me,
Love Me Whole
While You Eat My Soul.

I'm Nothing Like I Was,
Slowed Up No More Nos,
Glowed Up From The Cost,
Just Know I Am Not Lost.

It's Like I Woke Up From A Nap,
But In My Hands I Found A Map,
Studied It To Find Direction,
Now I'm Freed From Affection,
Lovely Disease But I'm Free From Infection,
Now I Can Ease & Embrace Imperfection.

Just saw a picture of
The one who had me first.
My heart slammed against ribs
So much so that they have
Impressions.

Still felt like less than
The depressions which
Formed when reality hit.
And I was nothing
But
A game.
Harry Roberts Jun 2019
All the things I thought I wanted
All the lies I told still haunt me
All the while I feel taunted
Seen the truth these demons flaunted.

The price of living is the pain of forgiving
The essence of despair dampens the spirit of whats fair
The devils feast like vultures carving man like clay sculptures
Kneading in obsession to create creatures open to possession.

In the end we are made as grotesque caricatures fiends and characters playing in an infernal play.
Harry Roberts Oct 2019
In the night your feelings weigh you down
Thoughts scream a banshees wail
Heart pulsing like a rabbit now
Can't console or calm down
Suffocating in myself
Aura dyed itself pale.

Falling down can be a sail
But the boat dips down don't fool yourself
The rush in your ears makes it hard to hear
The worry from ones to which you hold yourself dear
Descending to hell while you feel yourself sear.

I cuddle infernos so to the heat I feel near
I muddle my mind so fog can seem clear
I settle for nothing while the world is set on fire
I bottle my ire while the breath of death respires.
In the night
Harry Roberts Jul 2017
Feeling felt false
And I felt fake.
I only give
You only take

You were fire
I burnt like ice,
Together we detonate
Yet still we resonate.

Into you I fall deeply
My energy: lost, awashed or equal
I never found my equal
Would I dare where gamblers may?

Or fall back into dismay
Would I run like I'm unseen
Or return to the same routine.
Could I? Head under the guillotine.

Would I?
Red in a different scene
Lost but still keen
Love still never mean.

Was I really me.
Did I really change.
Did I truly grow?
When life got slow.
Harry Roberts Jul 2017
I saw your face for the first time in years,
Yet I still remember that sleepy smile.
Those golden eyes,
The charisma you beheld made any heart flutter.

I remember the way you held me,
Tight against your hard body
But I felt so secure.
I remember your taste.

On my tongue, lost but still held,           I remember your scent, touch.
****, I remember the way you sound.
I remember every line, wrinkle and muscle.

I still feel the moment you left,
You loved him - I learnt to forget
How you held me, loved me, ****** me best
Looked at me as less, you chucked me yes.

Blood pumping without oxygen
I'm trapped still losing him.
But he wasn't mine, and still,
He never was.

It's not what you took
Or what you left with
It's the skeletons that remain.

Rotting flesh,
Carcass & bone.

Mud, Blood
&
Cold hard stone.

It's the Art of Apathy
And how you embrace
Emptiness like a hidden lover.

My snakes
My jewels
My Heart
How cruel
-
My litany
My deeds
My Heart
Actions prove.

My snakes
Circle in spirals
Circle incessantly
I wonder if they tangle.

My jewels gleam in the dark
Like a shocking white spark
But cold rocks warm
Cold hearts.

My Heart bleeds
I need gauze
To pack the wound
So the blood can pause.

Words mean nothing
It's what we do in the
Morning.
It what we do with warning
And how we hold when
In mourning.

How we hold up the deeds
And work when
Work makes us bleed.
It's about the Heart
Behind the action.

The smile on a pained face,
It's the Heart.

You'll Be ******* Your Teeth Out For Months If You Cross Me,

Your Parents Paid The Cost,
Now It's Time To Grow A Pair I Know You're Not A Boss,

Take me down deep
Lullaby me to sleep
In your arms and keep
When the tears of life weep.
       ~Take me in your arms
         Take me with your charms
         Hold me with your calm
         A world held in your palm
-Chanted like a psalm.-
Chances fly like birds
But truth can't capture words
And words can't ever be heard,
Silence becomes one with the herd.
       ~Silence can lull me to sleep
        In his arms true charms
        He can keep,
        Held in heaven
        In his bliss
We won't sever
Or ever miss
Our lips touch
Eternal Kiss.
Passion and love
Blue sky above
Rue dances lost
Cue chances frost

Late Night,
We meet up
And we're ******* again.

Is the the ***,
Or the company.
I'm your ex,
Is he not cutting it.

Cause I could cut you to
Pieces.
I'm a Pisces with a wordsmiths way.
You know with luck I've held my sway.

Now I'm reducing myself,
Degraded for you
Nothing changes
Even my looks were graded by you.

I'm done with you,
And I think Fates
Fed up with your ****,
I did myself a favour
When I abandoned ship.

You can't see the light.
The candle in the dark,
Is lost to you.

No amount of love
Can conquer you.
I'm lost to you.

You lost yourself
And claw at my health.
I needed to regain a
Sense of self.

I needed to count
The love as true wealth.
And disregard all else.

Because without Family
Love or even yourself,
You are left with nothing else.

I count my blessings,
And with that
All else lessens.

Through trials and tests
This world is wrought
With lessons.
Sometimes you need time for you.

The Sky unforgiving & punitive,
Life could suffer -
Pain decided to be definitive.

But He screamed.
Wild & feral - primitive
It unravelled the seams
& let loose dreams.
So vapours sit,
Gathered & turn cream.

Gather again & then
Turn grey,
The heavens opened &
Blessed the cracked, droughted
Lips of the earth with Life.

Birthing again once deceased
Rivers.
Quickening the Earth so
With life it quivers.

Stems sprout up High,
They defy the Sky
Who let us dry.

Allowed us life
He unburdened strife,
We can live
Let live and forgive.

Fast, we can grow slow
And then in the earth
Again we lay low.

Caught in the rhythm,
A cosmic flow.
Live life now
It's all know.

Look at what you did
What you do
Who you do it to,
Look at how you live
What you give
Who you gave it too,
Look at how they care
What they want
How they're getting it.
Look at how they haunt
They just hound
Are you getting it.

Look at all these people
All these people
They evaporate,
Look at all these people
All these people
Don't elaborate,
Look at all these people
How they come
Where they go,
Look at all these people
Do you know them
I don't know.

Look at all the fire
All the fire
That you made,
Look they want to burn you
Want to burn you
Till you've paid,
Look at all the people
They will turn they will turn
Will you ask for help or have you learned have you learned,
Look to all the people
They won't change they can't change,
Have you learnt your lesson life is strange. It's so strange.

Everyone has emotions,
Don't deprive them of their devotions.
I believed that happiness
Was in toe with sappiness.

But now I see emotions lend passion,
Even though apathy is trend fashion ,
People just don't care,
Missing the mistress mare.

For she kept depression in check,
She softened oppressions harsh peck.
Now emotions overlook towers,
Blurred motions mistook my powers.

Intent on a new intention,
Pulled even In a state of suspension,
Wild, lost child, nothing about his life was mild.

But I do not dwell,
On times where I fell,
Not reliving a personal hell,
But my advice I do tell.

Negativity can embrace,
Bring pain upon your face,
But you have to rise,
Fly high above petty lies.
I want to get my poems out in the world

The Bane Of My Existence Is An Empty Page,
When The Words Won't Flow The Thoughts Just Age,
My Mind Is Swelling But Equally As Empty,
How Can Articulacy Come When I'm Particularly Numb.

How Comes Happiness Is Ever So  Fleeting,
Can't Contain The Energy When My Aura Is Bleeding,
Redirect My Aura When My Soul Isn't Eating,
Self Consuming Ouroboros It's Follow While Leading.

Heavy Headed While I'm Floating,
Truth Is Tough No Sugar Coating,
Mind Is Full My Brain Is Bloating,
Ears Are Full Of What You're Quoting.

If I Am Free The Sky Is No Limitation,
But This Absence Of Life Is A Poor Imitation,
This Façade Of Civility Is Inherently Flawed,
A Cavalcade Of Hurt People Their Lives Are Ignored.

I won't go back to that place little reaper don't grin,
I won't plead or demand no I won't let you win,
I've locked down my mind I won't let you in,
All you have taken has worn me so thin.

I said no I said no I say no till I scream,
The scariest thing because I cannot dream,
The monsters the same it's the monster in me,
I can't quite reconcile this internal dichotomy.

I am now stronger than my weakened youth,
I could slam a door now to pull out a tooth,
Hindsight will teach but not show you the truth,
Search thoughts and feelings 'cause memory is proof.

Boiling inside its internal despair,
I cool it with water like it wasn't there,
I pretend I don't care & I know it's not fair,
How I built myself with pieces left spare.

I won't go back to that place little reaper I win,
I'll let down my hair see it flow in the wind,
I'll take off my clothes 'cause I glow with my sin,
I could never invite you so now I rescind.

Off into the deep dark woods,
With a wicker box of goods.
Jar of jam, loaf of bread,
Doctor prescribed rest in bed.

The forests single trail,
To far in to fail,
Sliver of red dashing,
Amidst the rains lashing.

Mother went to town for the weeks end,
To go see childhoods friend.
So the cottage is free for me,
No danger did I see.

My grandmothers rickety house bore signs of age,
In her garden she grew sage,
To keep away spirits of rage.
But her herbs seemed to be dead.

Voices of doubt whispered in my head.
Is she here, her body is near,
But is her mind, and that smile kind,
She said when her sage shows signs of age,
It's time to run like theirs a fire on stage.  

Despite my feeling
I opened the door
Scent sent me reeling
I stumbled to the floor.

Stood by the fire-place
Was a face out of place,
A man in my grans robes,
I felt prickles in my ear lobes.

He smiled a grim grin of many teeth,
Eyes of sin screamed a soul thief.
I turned to run,
But he grabbed and yelled ***.

"What about my treats and sweets,
Don't leave," the man tugged at my sleeve.
"I was going to get you pickings of thyme"
I said to the impersonating slime.

"I'll cook you a beef steak."  
"Magnificent" said the rake.
Gran kept steak for me,
Why I ate it she didn't see.

Oil and thyme, in the frying pan.
Waiting on time, heat reddens the crying Pan.
When ready I bashed the pan down on his head,
Praying he smashed on the ground dead.

Then I took a sharp silver knife,
To his throat, to end his life.
Blood, arterial spray, enters the fray. Chaos rampant here,
The scent of her body near.

I went to her room then fell to my knees in doom.
I carried her limp frame to the sodden ground,
Buried her beneath a mound.

Then grabbed sage stricken by age,
Put it in the devils shocked screaming mouth,
Then put his body ablaze to send his dark soul streaming south.
My take on red riding hood.
Harry Roberts Jul 2017
Remember Little Red,
Cloak coiled.
Cocooned, Little Dread.

Confined in space - no room to change - no air to breath.

So Little Dead remains the same,
Caged in cloth she remains tame,
Teeth taste her lips blood, she remembers the taste.

Little Lead-Heart wasn't born with a Dead Heart.

But the Cage, and Age as Time birthed Rage
Created Death, where once Lived Little Red.
If there was a route in this Labyrinth,
Little Red would find the Thread.
Back on here, been away for a while ( i forgot my password.) Hope you enjoy, notes and critiques welcome.

I'm not me
I swear it see
Since a teen
I seen a part
Of me that's mean.

Apart of me that's been
Apart of me that knows
Hidden till it shows
Though it hardly
Ever blows.

It's older
Colder
More daring
And bolder.
It's apart as
Much as it is seperare.

It stole my age
Cause older I feel
In turn
And cold how the fire
In me burns.
But for breath it yearns
At ends with me.

Mostly I'd like to
Lay in the Sea
And be free.
But my demon
Makes me live
And evade the currents
Caught in me.

My demon makes
Me me, we lack
Dichotomy.
I'm one with
What opposes me,
In an convenient
Lobotomy.

His sisters
Love,
His misters lost.
**** tease,
Is **** the cost.

Please tell me
I'm kinda ******* lost
And is my soul the cost.

Don't call me - I'm *****,
Dumb *** always flirty,
Guess I got what was coming
The feeling of degradation when
He was *******.

Don't satiste me with words
That float like birds
In air, they're meaningless.
They're never there.

I can't be me
In the presence of you
I'm just a doll ,
Just a beach for you to
Take a stroll.

Just lost justice and cold,
Sinister soul soled
For like clay for him to
Mould
While I rot like the foulest
Mould.

Sad like a Lion
With tears like  a clown
Lonely in his jungle
An observer wears no crown.

Celestial in the rough,
Cut to perfection
With the absence of affection,
Till i dim enough.

And the crows caw,
The sky dark blue.
Heavy with vapour
That quickens into dew,
Then it drops.

The ball pops
Hope, like a rabbit,
Away it hops.

Give me more
& I'll show less,
Give me nothing
And have me hooked.

How hell froze over!
I fell in love,
Falling like a star
For you.

You were confused
I wasn't so sure,
But together we
Found insanities cure.
Just a quick poem,
Harry Roberts Dec 2017
Remember you are loved
When you feel low,
And people care
When you don't know.

Each day take a minute
To tell yourself you
Are loved, resilient
And alive.

Even if one minute
Turns into to five,
Remember there's help
When you need to find it.

Seconds may feel like minutes
Minutes may feel like hours
& hours feel like the death of you.

But find help
when you need it.

His voice rumbles against my ear,
The sound resonates in my mind,
I can hear his heart as clearly as his breath.
I can see us together as clearly as I see myself.

I find comfort cuddled against his chest,
He tells tales so tall they're all in jest,
We've stood together against life's test,
Next to him I'd forsake the rest.

His hair scratches against me,
His hands smooth down my sides,
His arms encircle me whole,
His eyes enliven my life.

Said I'm his heart,
We're nothing apart,
Together we start,
Love is an art.

I only need him,
I swear he's my king,
I'd stand on a mountain,
Swearing love isn't sin.

Swallowed his rage
& Earthed his Thunder,
On our path
We walk in wonder.

Soothed his mind
When gears did grind,
Engulfed his desire
In my Ocean of Fire.

Took his hand in Plains of Sand,
Or when at the Creek,
Feet submerged,
I kissed his cheek.

Wherever we'd go,
Our love and passion would grow,
Perfect Bliss, my Auras glow
Happy now with a pace that's slow.

Lazy, Summer, Lake-Dipping,
Frenzied Passion, Hearts Flipping,
Down the Aisle I walked while skipping,
Sealed with a kiss that felt so fitting.
Harry Roberts Dec 2018
The thought of you sets my blood to boil,
In my mind there's hatred & stress in a coil,
In my gut there's a knife that sinks deeper with each breath,
The thought of you makes me feel a whole lot less.

It's like tar how thick & sickly my thoughts slide to you,
You are a cancer there's nothing to cut outside of you,
You're teeth & hair in a mutated tangle,
Words like venom with which I'll strangle.

Did you think you could take and only keep taking?
Working nonstop not just my soul that was aching,
Sweating out blood all the work it was breaking,
You made it harder when concrete was flaking.

I am just happy he's cashed out and gone,
Worn out his welcome his soul was all wrong,
This was a lesson that went on for too long,
Now it's all over I know I belong.

Pouring Wine & Eating Cheese,
Divine Like Heaven If You Please,
Sitting In A Circle Round,
Platinum Moonlight Does Surround.

Singing Chants & Burning Herbs,
Thanks For The Safety Of Our Herds,
Thanks For The Wind With Rain & Sun,
Thanks For The Harvest & Swelling Tums.

Respect For The Cycle That Circles Each Year,
Thanks To The Mother For Curing Our Fear,
Thanks For The Sight So We May See Clear,
Thanks For The Fates Who Give Us A Steer.  

Respect For The Magic That Makes The World Spin,
Magic Across Ages Has Been A Whirlwind,
Magic Begins Where Magic Will End,
Magic Is Endless So We Won't Pretend.

Make Like A Ghost & Go Quiet,
I'll Lead The Pack To A Riot,
My Wolves Are Done Looking Like Sheep,
I'll Lead Cheaters To Heaps Where They Weep.

Make Like A Ghost & Go Die,
Hope That You Know I Won't Cry,
Shouldn't Have Broken Our Ties,
Shouldn't Have Spoken Those Lies.

Make Like A Ghost & Go Wail,
The Games How You Play & Then Fail,
The Coffin You Knocked In This Nail,
Now You're Stuck Chasing Your Tail.

Make Like A Ghost & Go Haunt,
I Will Ignore While You Taunt,
I Will Just Fly Through & Flaunt,
Guess I Am Just What You Want.

Tickle Them Pink Then I'll Smack Them Back Down,
Tricky Little **** Yeah I Hope That You Drown,
Kick Off The Mound When I Crawl Out The Ground,
Scented The **** So I Hunt Like A Hound.

Make Me A Joke & You'll Pop Like A Coke,
Take A **** From My Bone & Choke From The Smoke,
The Fire Within & Its Glows Through My Skin,
Contest The Conquest Because No One Will Win.

I'm Just A King
But I'll Take My Throne
In My Own Company I'm Not Alone,
Fire I Bring
It's The Fire I've Thrown
I Keep On Burning So I Haven't Grown.
