I hope there is a light beyond the darkness
that suffocates a confidence I used to believe in.
A hopeful feeling of salvation that used to be...
whole .
She burns through my vacant heart,
a pinhole charm, causing harm
upon my constant forgiveness.
I ignore I wait I beg I stay;
I fight with passion and bathe in my own pain.
I drown in my forgiveness
contemplate my regrets.
I am forced to forget her words
I have forgiven once before.
But I cannot ignore
my swollen wound is infected
burning with ignorance;
what appreciation?!
there is no turning back
now there is no sign of light,
I am not sure if I can forgive-
in the name of passion, I lose the fight,
laying dead in the choke of night.

There is a law, with regards to the heart,
And so, must be followed accordingly.



                                     Please take note, and refer to one,s own heart,

For guidelines
A gull in profile on a rock
Tang of salt laden air
Crash of waves down below
On my lips a silent prayer

Oh that I could walk into the sea
Leave behind the beach of sand
Slip into her warm embrace
Let her carry me in her hand

Carry me ever so far away
Leave me on a deserted shore
There to find what I seek
Then, only then, to roam no more.
Eb and Flow

See my rhythms and poems
Have no motion no flow

Sometimes they Eb
But even that happens real slow

The motion is there
I Just don’t wanna let it go

If I add it you’d know
That I cared to grow

And learn, discern
I won’t say anymore

Except for this

I took a piece of bliss
Put it in my back pocket
Sat down and smashed it
Took it out then I dropped it

My language saw me
Decided I should stop it
So I brushed it off
Told everyone that I lost it

Truth is that I crossed it
Didn’t earn the ability
Says who? Says Me.
So I took and I tossed it

Whats left
I don’t know
No language

Sometime I Eb

But even that happens slow
It's up to me to build the future
With committment in my heart
Being honest with my neighbors
Is the point where I must start
A life must  always aim for truth
No hypocrisy prevail
With no blemish in my make up
If I aim for less I fail
Integrity to one another
Puts a deeper trust in place
To uphold that awesome value
Is to lift the human race
I must always stand on honor
And be forthright to the bone
Always strive to be less selfish
Where no evil turns me wrong
There will be  a better future
On that loftier plateau
God will bless me for the wisdom
If I choose that course to grow
When I truly ply those basics
There's a difference I can make
I must be a good example.....

God its cold tonight
I wouldnt of bothered but its easy cash
and i'm dying for a fix

'What did that bloke just say to you kate'?

'cheeky ***'

'don't get nothing for free in life mate

go back to your borin wife , what she not know how to do ya good'


'Blokes like that make me blinkin laugh'

'Well you keep laughing little one cos there in't much to

laugh at down this street for sure'


'you got any johnny's?'

'What the hell you doing coming out unprepared, here you go

don't say i don't do nothin for ya'


The girls hanging on corners
For a ***** little fix*
Food to feed their children
Their pimps pullin their tricks
All dressed up
Thinking they lookin ****

When they are  just lookin  like a couple of tarts
If only daddy could see you now it would break his blinkin heart


You can look down your noses
You can think your better by far
But who bought you the watch darling
or the spankin new car
Who payed for the holiday to florida
Or the trip with the girls to japan
what makes you better than them girls

When you really dont even love your man
Thats why he goes to them  

Cheap thrills
Circus tricks
Grubby man


**Who are the clowns
Take them down
strip them bare
their all the same
It's just the game
