Surreal poem
Paul Hardwick Feb 2012
once was not right.
twice was enough.
began was other stuff.

pink was not purple.
although blue.
bounce was love.

up came down.
reminds me.
of you.

but if I say tomorrow.
will take me,   I will be with you.
ma ma yeh!

Dark and light.
Paul Hardwick Feb 2012
Dark came into the room.
The lights went out.
What Light said.
Who is there.
Or is there nobody any where.
Dark laughed.
Do you not see.
It was just me!

At that the light went on.

My princess of the sand.
Paul Hardwick Oct 2012
Who can know
of all her thoughts
and of what she knows
did she come from a strange world
from some where within
or maybe the moon or the stars
she makes me feel like
i have the devil in my shoes
making me dance
to the ever glittering light
that shines in her hair
but here she is
that princess
of the sand
i look around and hope to find that princess behind
my princess of the sand.

Do you remember?
Paul Hardwick Feb 2012
Do you remember that night?

I sat to your left.                                       Or was it your right?

Then somebody farted!                           We both looked at one another.

You looked at me and smiled.               I smiled back, the laughter, I cold not hold.


We both started to giggle, it just grew and grew.

As we giggled that night, your hard of hearing mother asked.


What is up with you to?

Think you broke first.                              Then I just had to follow.


She did indeed get no response from us, and my was the air blue.

Mind my gap.
Paul Hardwick Sep 2012
there was moonlight that danced on the sand
blood stained piano played with no hands
moonlight its now or never
play stormy night for me
i lived in a flower shop
and i got all my kicks for free
i was carefully crazy when playing the game
but business is business when playing you see.

Words
Paul Hardwick Nov 2011
Some words  are just words,
Some words  are just love,
Some words  are just fiat,
Some words  just hate,
Some words  account.
Some words  play,
Some words  just say,
Some words  describe,
Some words  say I am still alive,
Some words  are just spoken,
Some are      not,
Some words  give pain,
Some words  gain,
Some words  piece,
Some words  releases,
Some words  Just some words.


But they are    just words!

My life is a circus.
Paul Hardwick Jun 2017
Some day's
I feel like a human staple
only me and the paper
fixing it to the pinboard
on the words
I sometimes write down
lawyers become bespoke
reading my papers
and then **** with me
dead cell in the ring
never dances
even if the man in top hat say's
it does
life is a circus
where the elephant in the room dances
how the ****
is the circus for you?

and lent against the wall

Sale, Sale, Sale. 40% off.
Paul Hardwick Jan 2012
I am a sale's man, for selling is all I do.
How about you, do you sell your self to.

I have things to save money.
Things that save time.

Sell your self, and see what you think
But nothing comes easy.

Keep your love in style.
But where dose your money go.

Who the **** knows!

Bright.
Paul Hardwick Jul 2012
Bright was feeling dark this day
Light came in smiled and sat next to him
Bright said leave me alone and ask dark to come in
Darks away on a holiday light did say
that is so tipical of him just when you need him to come in

me with my dear friends.
Paul Hardwick Aug 2012
just there outside they are waiting
waiting for that finger
to point there way
just oust side the circle
with you and me my dear friends

they are looking over
with there lip made of stone
just out side they are waiting
just out side our circle

if you go for it
remember me my dear friend
for they will take you
and a just  your mind
remember what we had

just there outside they are waiting
waiting for that finger
to point there way
just oust side the circle
with you and me my dear friends

no she must not be your bride
for you will no longer live
in this circle
for you will no longer
be like me

at that he did part
and to this day
never seen him again
but i wish him well
the man who will get a broken heart.

Keeping fit.
Paul Hardwick Nov 2017
Going down the gym
got me on the lift
got stuck
with the keep fit girl
she started to sweat
I told her she was ok
she was panicking
two hours I spent
trying to calm her down
sweat on her t-shirt and mine
that was wrong
on all levels
not going again
got me a home gym
going to have it upstairs
now can anybody help me carry up the box?
Love P@ul.
Paul Hardwick Sep 2012
went into a store today
to buy a new wooly
and i think they ripped me off
the sign said
wooly jumpers half price
and i thought oh thats nice
so i brought it there and then
only to get it home
to find
it was wooly
but did it jump
it clearly said that on the sign
think i have been ripped off !!!

A lot.
Paul Hardwick Mar 2012
A lot sat quietly.
Think about what he was not.
A lot sat wishing.
That he would become something that he is not.
A lot be came aware.
Of all he is not.
A lot thought of thinking.
And realised, it ment A lot.

THEN FELT SICK!
Am I to surreal?

and felt the pain within

We can sing.
Paul Hardwick Sep 2015
All to soon
in a land of dreams
we grow like a tree
running through street
to a city edge
fine a path to walk through
come to a canals edge
pick up the winds of time
move to a distant shore
of sand of gold
lay on a beach
get a sore head
feel dizzy for the rest of the day
and at night rub on cream
as our skins give off
a strange green glow
feel hot
even thought we are not
if you dream this tonight
write me
on a postcard
state'in wish
you where here
instead of me
no I don't.

drifting to places of the heart
echo like you remember in your past
of love and all the softer things
but just behind the shadows fall into dust
and at
you wake up.

which you have no information on

Space is a limit.
Paul Hardwick Mar 2015
Space is a limit
once your
out into the air
feel the earth pull your body down
here we live on this solid ground
here we move around
mess with each others heads
planted seeds in the ground
grow stuff
then when dreams came around
and we want to get up
far beyond
the politicians
tell us
that is to expensive
lets instead rebuild this bank

f  u  c  k        O     F      F

don't tell me how to think
I'am  better off on my own
and my mind is in outer space.

And the poet lifts his pen.
Paul Hardwick Apr 2016
As the letters hide
hopping he he is two mind
the cattle grazing by the river
look at him as he comes
as his pen strikes
freaking himself out
purple
thats the colour here
see or hide
See the painted
purple dreams
living in purple clouds
driftting of into purple sense.


Purple bing bang hop.

I did not.
Paul Hardwick Jun 2013
I did not want to die today
for me it was just another day
but I remember walking into the light
what for me was dark now was clear as day
Gods security on the gate who's name was Peter.
look me in the eye looked down at his list
then said   "nope do not see your name here"

OWWWWWWWW God help my soul, thank to a man called Peter!
I work as a security Officer and I have offen wondered.  When I get to the gates of heaven, will there be some one there just like me.
And if true, will I still wait in the que?           Regards Paul  ***.

Leaning on a wall

and lean on my head
seams the best thing to do.

Add this up.
Paul Hardwick Apr 2012
1+1     =  2
But in nature.
one plus one   =   three.
just there plane simple see.
three becomes 4 then 8, 16, 32, 84.
made of you and me.
So 1+1 = 84.
See the maths does not add up.
But it is 84.

Ended up!
Paul Hardwick May 2012
Ended up in hospital today
People came not long to stay
Sniffed the flowers
And drifted away
Woke up to more
Eat some grapes and started to snor
How do these people get here
Bet I will sleep tonight
Just want to go home now
Leave me people
I am alright
It was a time ago when I did indeed have to stay!
Paul Hardwick Jun 2015
It was all down to that first bite
now him and sue are playing
when he pulled that dolls head off
she bit his arm
and made him cry
fill him up with all kind of madness
he cry'ed on his own
***** he might of thought
if he know that word
but he did not
so bottle it up
only to come out latter in life
slash as he was known then
met sue in a bar
so went over introduced himself
grabed and bit her arm.

Paul Hardwick Nov 2015
You knew
you had the key
to my heart
but you choose
to break it in the lock
so those that came there
would give up trying
to give up to undo
my life
and make me
love again
but here
I am that man
born free
who's words
roam free
in a new lock
of his own.

Sands storm
blows my words
into pure
imagination
giving me hope
that some day
I will feel
in my life again.

The way
the day begins
decides
life
and everything.

Listen to me, please
In the early hour's
Do you feel the squeeze
Have you found the meaning
Have you found your dreams
Tell me how are you feeling
It's a hard life that is true
But you can make it through
Look back on your dealings
Then tell me Y O U!
Have you found the meaning
Have you found your dreams?

Paul Hardwick Jun 2016
It's a long way
from here to where I can find
sunshines
my drugs make me so cold all the time
and top of it today the rain falls
it's my summer
not looking forward to winter at all
walking around in foggy mist
wipe it all from my eyes
make me happy make me feel my own warmth

make me feel again
what I am
what I was
make me feel tomorrow.
