I can see the shadows ahead of me
Cast adrift on this raging sea

Sleepless inside this insane mind
Forever in this turmoil confined

I take the pills 1, 2, 3, 4
Try to pick myself up off the floor

Plaster a smile upon my face
I hope that i don’t disgrace

When no ones looking the tears start again
I’m just so empty and full of pain

I hate what’s become of me
And hope no one can see
That inside me it’s grown so dark
The drugs don’t work
And it’s tearing me apart.

To My Friend...

"Me down in the lofty bed
As back is feeling like cold lead,
My faithful wife of so many years,
Comforts me best like yester years,
Though she herself is frail & slim,
But her courage is like that of a Hollywood film,
She is the best that I could get,
Otherwise who would take such a bet,
To love a fool of truthful days,
And a being so careless in worldly ways.
I am always thankful to HIM"
HE knows best to run this Realm "

It's a glitch
I fall asleep
And dream awake
Losing fake friends
They're out looking
For attention
My body malfunctions
Could i fix it
I'm not looking for love
Why do you keep
Knocking on my heart
I hate to see people cry
What do i do
Say hi
Things get sad
Isolate yourself
In the virtual world
Where things seem
Much calm
Not so much anymore
I was hoping for
The world to destroy
It's self
Can't tell what is realiti
I just hear everything out
I don't listen quite well
I don't know what to do
If i see someone cry
I've always cried alone
Should i give them a hug ?

During dictation
And recitation days,
Finishing the things
Was a deadline,
And that was
The reason to smile,
Sauntering!

Bit by bit,
It turned into
A strong desire,
Solidifying!

It now burns
within, heating
The dreams to boil!

To the fence,
It takes you,
To jump
And pick up
The ball,
Thrown earlier!

It is that
Lets you to climb
The hardest hill
And hold the flag
Of your triumph,
With the people,
Clamouring,  
To salute you
And grab
The trumpet card.

It is there,
Working immaculately,
And shaping
You as you wish for!

Leo was happy till the storm came to the woods
The trees flew like leaves and chaos all around,
Is this then the world for which one strives day and night,
Hark man... forget this frenzy and go to the land where time stands still...!

sticky kisses for the missus just
to prove that i'm no wuss
and if it tastes good enough for you
it's good enough for me too.
don't you miss the blissful ignorance
chinese whispers and rumours
written on the tarmac in chalk
for the wind to pick up
and carry on to other schoolyards
eat lots of pineapple, it'll make you taste good.
did she eat ten a penny aniseed sweets for me?
she seeps liquid liquorice
that binds my teeth in a bittersweet grimace
stretching from ear to ear. she hates the taste
and i hate to share my just desserts.
innocence is a burden that burns
like empty lungs, and no breathing in
again until i get what i want,
bad enough to make the children
want to **** themselves. when they want
sticky kisses before bedtime.

Why doesn't this hell of a website have a **** app yet? It would be a dream ¿¡

Skittish;
Brim fish.

Bottle open,
Dichotomus elopen'.

Brim fish-
Quite skittish.
Sees us
Fears this.
Great hand
"Reaching towards us!"

Hands have hurt
And have squeezed-
Have let us go
And forsaken our needs,
Hands have hurt
(Hands have healed)
Hands have cut our skins like bright orange peels.

Skittish fish
Stuck lip.
Skittish fish
May as well been whipped.
Skittish fish
(Hungry dish.)

Brim fish
Has a wish
To grow teeth
And be vicious.

Vampires in Town..

There is a fight among Vampires in the town,
It is said to be for the Vampire crown,
Even some leaving the ruling clan,
To join the opposite renegade clan,
Guess the blood there is more sweet,
Otherwise vampires rarely make a retreat,
These are not humans anymore,
Yet their kind always galore,
In and around this town for more,
Blood, plenty around and not sour,
It has been thus for pretty long,
In this town of Kashur gong,
But when the time will come,
They cannot stand the bright Sun,
But will wither like ashes in the wind,
This town will see last of them,
Sure oh sure the time has to come.
Till then let us watch their dance,
And keep alight our own furnace.
