Pray for my loss
Mark Bell Sep 2017
Chimes of the bell
Never to return
You went to your death
My heart will burn
Lost without you
I will have to pray
That we will rejoin
On a sweet summer day

My demise
Mark Bell Apr 2017
Twisted inside
Brambled rose
Inside my brain
Cancer grows

Temple of doom
Forget me not
Mind so dark
Three dashes
Six dots

My demise accepted
Flowers will sway
Sweet peace at last
I died today.

Ode to war
Mark Bell Nov 2019
Dead dead when you could have lived
Freedom is it all worth it.
You experience no freedom when your dead
Bullet in the brain, medal on chest
Do warmongers really want to do there best.
Let's all run with the monkey pack
**** or be killed thats what they say
death is just a battlefield
where children fear to play.
War memorials,
obituaries in tutorials
A statue,poppy oh so read
War is a game,
A game to play where the participants end up dead.

Not taking sides
Mark Bell May 2017
rivers of history
All flowed with blood
God and the devil
Never really understood.
Caves to the skyscrapers
In a spinning sphere,
I'm not taking sides
I don't need the fear

Nightmare
Mark Bell May 2017
Blood flowed into river red
Nobody adhered the pleas,
Silence screaming from the drum
As all around would freeze.
cruelly ***** violently abused
Nobody adhered the screams
Blood flowed into river red
As the nightmare,killed the dreams

Bullet or a virus
Mark Bell Oct 2020
Soldiers who runs  away from death
Them cowards they would say
A bullet or a virus
Cannot tell the time of day.
they should have had a lockdown
Not sent them youngsters of to war
Now if they would have stayed at home
They would have lived for sure.

Bullet or a virus
Both muck about
With our heads
What are we running away from

Temptation
Mark Bell Jun 2017
Enticing label on the tin
My little peach she lays within
Her clothes are just a mask
I need the wine not the cask
Tempted by lust and warm desire
I opened her up
Pure nectar and fire

New day

Mist on the lake  slowly forms
Then covers meadow green
Echoing silence,oh so serene
Morning chorus,crack of dawn
Sun coming up a new day is born.

Robin redbreast
Mark Bell May 19
As I woke
One blue dawn
A robin sat on
My window ledge
To greet the
coming morn.
He was small
with a redbreast
So sweetly did he sing
It brought joy to
My heart that
Little bird did bring.
As my head rose
From my pillow
I slowly left my bed
I gently closed my window
And crushed it’s
******* head.

Veggies
Mark Bell Feb 18
The werewolf’s
Were out
The moon
Shining bright
Out to feed
Before it got light.
They dug up potatoes
Beetroot and pears
These vegetarian
Werewolf’s
Caught the gardeners
Unaware.

Doom and gloom
Mark Bell Jan 2021
The doors were open in 48
Diseases have been spread
Global immunity I think not
We just morn the dead.

To **** a virus the host must die
Nature will not cower away,
A virus is the hangman
Inside this deadly play.

All viruses are dead
Until it finds a host
immune system overload
Do you hear the Last post.

Close the doors
Humans rebel
Close the doors
Creates hell.

Good times
Bad times
Viruses have the upper hand
Good times bad times
Death across the land

Shadows
Mark Bell Apr 2017
When young children die
There shadows still play
It might not be true
I would like it that way.
Dancing,smiling
Under the Suns ray
carrying their  names
In a fine eternity play.
shadows still do exist
In the darkness of a blink
It might not be true
It's still lovely to think

Species of animal is broken
Mark Bell Jun 2020
I'm sorry for being white
I'm sorry for being black
I'm sorry we can't enjoy life
We are broken that's a fact.

I'm sorry that you hate me
I'm sorry that I hate you
I'm sorry that we don't understand
Ask God to give us a clue.

Humans are broken people,
We have slaughtered through the years
Then how do we solve this problem
It's in the darkness in our tears.

Change don't come in prose
Slaughter has been the way
Millions more will feel the pain
It's in bred inside the day.

I'm sorry for being poor
I'm sorry for being rich
I'm sorry I was never asked to be born
And neither were ******* you.

Drugs versus nature
Mark Bell Jan 2021
A shot in the arm
Then life goes on
A serum for the weak
Nature is always harsh.

playing with fire
Who lives and dies
hear humanity cry
Laws of nature do not apply.

Save the weak
Save the old
Save the vulnerable
Disaster will unfold.

Drug companies have
Found their holy grail
Humanity will crumble and fall
7 billion customers,there
Going to have a ball.

Variant diffrent every year
The money keeps rolling in
Get your shot in the arm
At seventy life begins.

Mess around with dieing
Then Life becomes a mess.
Suicide rate will hit a high
Life becomes a game of chess.

Reflecting
Mark Bell Apr 2017
I miss my mother
I miss my dad
I miss the days
Good or bad
I miss my sisters
And my brother
I miss a cuddle
From my mother
I miss the sun
The pouring rain
I miss my childhood
And the runaway train
I miss my lovers
And all my friends
I will miss my helper
On whom I depend
I miss the days by the sea
I miss the rambling
Wandering so free.
You see I'm slowly expiring
I'm aged one hundred and three
Reflecting on my lifetime
It was good,don't you agree.

The game.
Mark Bell Apr 2017
Mental health versus the suicide bomb
It's not one for the faint of heart
Come on all you fu-ked up morons
Let's get this game to the start
When you hear the refs whistle blow
Which showers us in harmonic sound
Then everything turns a shade of red
As atoms hit the ground
Mental healthers you must take life upon the chin
Because that little suicide bomb will always ****** win
There can never be a return match
There will be no glorious return
Just a Little sporting chant
Of burn you ******* burn
Most games played in life are supposed to be a bit of fun
But in this stupid game the score is always 0-1
Warring factions please leave them inside your ugly head
It's always your surroundings that end up turning red

Meeting a lover
Mark Bell May 2017
Walking cobbles,dim lit streets
Warm of heart,****** cold feet
Winters night,stars shine bright
Meeting a lover,my guiding light
We walk awhile,lips meet sweet
Warm of heart,now warm of feet.
A bottle of wine,two lovers drink
High on happiness,two hearts link.

Red or brown
Mark Bell Apr 2017
children playing in the park
Drone of swarming bees
suddenly life went dark
Time stood still,it froze
bursts of high pitch screams
filled the air with fear and dread
all around me,parents and children
We're laying fu--ing dead.
frozen with gut wrenching horror
I could hear people having rants
Stuck for what seems an eternity
I knew I had just **** my pants
Sirens wailing smoked filled thee air
Blood splattered red,dripping everywhere
then I woke,hearing a terrible sound
Holding a a bottle of ketchup,One red one brown

Held back
Mark Bell Apr 2017
Driving with my brakes on
Lions have knocked my pride
I haven't got a button
So I can override.
Led boots holding,dragging me back
Guilt covers all my lonesome cracks
My sea hasn't  got a brightly tide
Cannot find the button so I can
Override
Crying crying,crying without tears
Static emotions dammed by all my fears
Can you be my open gateway
To whom  which I can confide
Will you be my faithful button
So l can override

I'm sorry it's fantasy
Mark Bell Jun 2020
I'm sorry for being me
I'm sorry for you being you
I wish we were all the same
You know it's all laughable

I want us to be all rich
And live where we are equal
I wish it we were the same you and me
You know it's a all  just fantasy.

I teach you what's right and wrong
You teach me what's right and wrong
We all hold hands and skip with glee
You know the world is a fantasy

There is no bad just only good
all races smiling all understood
All races agreeing you and me
I'm so sorry you will never see this fantasy

Words like racism gone forever
All roses and ice cream
Just as we turn the corner ,blink
in the back ground you will
all hear humanity scream.

Rubber ducky
Mark Bell Jan 20
Rubber ducky
In my bath
Manchester United
Are signing him
This team is such
A complete farce.

What has happened
It’s such a farce
My rubber ducky
Decided he’s staying
in the bath.

Rubber ducky
Yellow and proud
He Is not suited
Yet
To play in front
Of the united crowd.

Rubber ducky
He’s not being hurt
He’s just signed
And wearing
Accrington Stanley shirt.

Rubber ducky
He
Is actually
A Man Utd fan,
Im only his guardian,
Old Trafford
at the moment
Is not in his plan.
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Living in the shade
Yearning for light
When you get it,
It will surely burn

Grass is Greener
On the other side
Fantasy a wonderful thing
Heartache and yearning
Without wisdom and learning
Can then change really begin.

Minorities want change
Earning it with words
You no it only comes with death
It's the way, It hurts to say
And really ******* absurd.

Found a lump

To be my day,
He found a golf ball
It had gone in a
Fairway.

Can someone
Mark Bell Apr 2017
Can someone tell me  what is love?
Poetry and that sweet purple dove
Roses, roses for my darling Valentine
Let me kiss you where the sun don't shine
Love to me is a peculiar .
Love to me is all wrong
Sexuality to me is a pastime
In your world I do not belong.
Little old psychopathic me
Emotions I have but none
Love and *** are sweetly married
Like six bullets and the gun
Can someone educate me on the
Finer points of love
Because I'm getting fed up
Trying to catch that poetic dove

Wishing well
Mark Bell Apr 2017
Wishing well stood proudly
In the middle of village square
Throw in all your pennies
Ask a question if you dare.
So I asked for one ***** **** *****
Long blonde hair and super mega rich
when I awoke next morning
With my wife still by my side
That clever all knowing wishing well
Knew that I had lied

I think the Chinese
Got this all Wong
The virus to spread
To quell the riots in honk Kong

A trade war with America
Starvation has begun
So let's spread a virus
And have some financial fun

Americans and the Chinese
The Germans and Jews
So let's spread the virus
And give the world the blues

Bankrupt all countries
China will provide
America will give loans
While governments still lie

Spread the virus
Far and wide
Communism democracy
I'll let you decide

Mass migration stops
Before it's to late
Millions start cueing
At the pearly gates

Why don't the Chinese play cricket
Because they ate all the bats

I once stood tall
Mark Bell Mar 20
Last brick left
When once a wall
Falling down
When once stood tall
A tiled hat
Windows as eyes
Proud as punch
As people passed by,
My family have gone
All turned to dust,
Im the last brick standing
Now die I must.

I took the blame
Mark Bell Jun 2020
My sweet love now gone
20 years,maybe more
Still wishing that one day
She will walk through the open door.
Alas I know, it shall never will be
See I shot her through the head
when I was 23.

The lack of chemicals in my brain
My heart will never cry
She will dance inside my eyes
Until the day I die

It was my fault she had no life
I took all the heartless blame
The ****** and the dopamine
Thought it was a sweet little game.

20 years more to serve
I know I'll never be free
Caged and broken from ones birth
a human lost that's me.

Ghosts of uck hall
Mark Bell Jan 10
Scary ghosts of uck halls
Threw lavish parties
And summer *****.
One criteria on the
Invitation read
You had to be
Physically dead

I didn’t stop me
I had a plan
I disguised myself
As a baked bean can

My Skelton mate
Went to the bar
Asked for a pint
And a mop
It was different
That night he
Never spilt a drop.

The band played thriller
Drinks went down well
Trap door opened
Out popped lucifer
From the road to hell.

Ghost of Dracula
And Frankenstein
Dancing singing
Drinking bottles
Of wine.

Party went on well
Past five
The bouncers evicted
Me because they
Found out  I was alive.

Next year
I am
Going to
be dead
Just like the
invitation read.

Ghostly ghosts
Of uck hall
Great parties
But not for all.

A gun with no bullets
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Grasping at the future
With an empty bucket
The Sun and the moon
Writing there obituaries
while earthlings say **** it.

Holding on to the past
Laden down with hate
the rich and the poor
Writing their obituaries
It's the earthlings fate.

Living in the present
Darkness in the sky
The seeds of the future
Will germinate
And then still ask ******* why.
Mark Bell Jun 2020
Lives don't matter black or white
Control is the establishments way,
Dumb animals as humans are
We are a statistic in a game they play.

Bricks through windows rioting *****
Do you really think they give a ****,
Countries send millions to there deaths
They don't give a **** between black or white
They just give them number,a loaded gun
to surrender or stand up and fight.

Animals are racist that's what we are
A species divided between love and hate
The only time of true equality
Is when you walk through the pearly gates.

We are blinded by the colour of ones skin
Every animal has Bright blood red
Violence has its always been
Us The statistics end up dead

Three little words
Mark Bell Apr 2017
Swam five oceans
Swam seven seas
To say these words
To the tune of three
Climbed Mount Everest
Walked to Kathmandu
To say these words
These words to you
I've been to heaven
I've ran through hell
These three little words
To you I must tell
I searched and searched
I tragically went blind
Year upon year
Going out of my mind
Then I died
I did not know what to do
So on my epitaph I had
Written I hate you

Excited
Mark Bell Feb 10
I have learned
It’s not good to burn
There’s fire in her heart
She manipulates me she
Has done from the start.
I don’t want an easy life
Excitement this I yearn
It’s all fair in love and war
Therefore I must burn.
What is life
I don’t want
Just to exist.
Im going to burn
Not fade into the mist.

Hard nut to crack
Mark Bell Mar 19
You sweet woman
With a heart of steel
If I crack the safe
Do we have a deal.
If I fall
no need to react,
Im quite tenacious
I will bounce back.
The code to your heart
Will be difficult to break
It’s like swimming
Inside a frozen lake.
I know your worth it
Your pure gold inside
So Im prepared
To take this task and
Crack it with pride.
I think I’ve found
a weak point I needed
A break
In going to entice
with
Some
chocolate cake.

Down by
The riverside
Kingfisher blue
Soaking up the
Morning chill.
The river flowing
Gently today
Fish are idling by
Bluebells on
The riverbank
Blossoming
In the sun.
Day turns
To night time
Kingfisher blue
Settles on his
Creative perch
To welcome in
tomorrow's dawn.

To say these three
words to you I’ll fly them
from a flag

The evil quill
Mark Bell Mar 26
Cold steel cuts
Through my veins
Blood flows out
Relieves the pain.
My eyes roll up
Inside my head
Not long now
I shall be dead.
Was I murdered
Or was it suicide.
This doggerel rhyme
Had committed the crime,
The evil quill
Was top of the bill
My veins were cut
It left a chill.

Life

The essence of life is being there
In tune with your surroundings

Then  life its halved in which
You live
Rhythm of life is a beating heart
In tune with the warmth of the sun
Good and evil are married together
Having lots of fun

Where are you?
Mark Bell Apr 2017
surfing inside a chemical reaction
Kissing ugliness what's the attraction?
Riding along on a nuclear bomb
With a man called Mary
And a woman called Tom
Victorious losers winners must cry
Cross your thumbs hoping to lie
What is the difference between a frog
And an amphibious toad?
I don't really know my brain will explode
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside
Oh I do like to be by the sea
Nursy where are you ?

Intrigue
Mark Bell Apr 2017
This terrorfying story should never had been told
Sentencing all readers to death,if it we're to unfold.
Millions of years nobody had read these ghastly words
The disastrous effect was to scream out so absurd
Then someone did open it,who had the courage to read
He did not live long this storyteller would surely bleed.
Orators and scribes word by word they all bled
Holding back the horror from their dark bloodstained heads
Millions had died,first paragraph to horrific to tell
Was this the book to the gateway to bleeding hell
Bodies upon bodies all piling up,as page by page was read
This devilish book of intrigue it was what thee author said
To read this book was suicide,still they came to take a glance
One by one they came to die while lucifer sang and danced.
So what was the title of this book which contained all life's sickly gore.
You shall never ever know it because it lies beyond your door.

Pretty amazing grace
Lived in a amazing place
A palace of luxury
Ostentatious abound
Always up and never down,
Pure and innocent
Whiter than snow
Always bubbly
With a loving glow,
An angel so beautiful
So heavenly divine
Even darkness bowed
And shined.
Then one day
We thought it would be fun
We played Russian roulette
And I think I won.
