No Idea
Thomas Walsh Dec 2014
The ***** thought
Misinformed mind
Ostracized feelings that won't leave
Because they are a part
Of who we are

Senseless definition of biology
Living steps of madness
Brought on by aggression
And Confusion

Drunken, wobbling footsteps
Leading nowhere
No path

Over-thinking
Without Understanding

Hit the bottle

Summer Love
Thomas Walsh Oct 2014
Ever since that night
My thoughts have slipped away.
I cannot think about anything,
Except for you everyday

I can't concentrate;
You're toying with my heart.
I scream out in silence
I don't know where to start

When we met
I knew it was you.
I bided my time
Never wanting, but withdrew

I've never felt this way
I can barely breath or see
You're the girl of my dreams
Yet you hardly notice me.
And when you do
You relight a candle I can't put out,
Until it rises in to ta great flame
Built from my own doubt

So close to love, to hold
When we talk
As I gaze at your beauty
You look at another

Your wit intrigues me
Your laugh haunts me
You dance like the summer
Hot, powerful, moving, ravaging, and beautiful
Like the summer you heat me up
Until I'm burning like never before
Hoping you can catch a bit of my passion
Thomas Walsh Mar 2014
My astute sadness falls in to obscurity
As my beleaguered heart drowns in madness
Yet, I enthusiastically embrace this majority
Grinning at my tortured exuberant canvas

A crooked smile, my face spreading wide
Gashes upon my past, brought to life
The twisted anarchy is my pride
Following a path on the edge of a knife

The out-flowing insanity, my soul enveloped
My obtuse feelings rushing in to disarray
The bitter darkness my spirit developed
My past life, willing to betray

I welcome and revel in my malevolence
Being called the Dark Prince
I am a mad ruler, benevolent
Giving me a wild pleasure, seen as nonsense

None can see in to my thoughts
Anarchic wanderings floating around
I burn all that I have bought
Burn it all to the ground

Burn it all. The people who walk in comfort with their morally loose ideals. Darkness needs to be dragged out from within, as we all need to be saved from societies twisted obligations. They need to fall in to primitive anarchy to truly see themselves.

I do not have another equal, none
Even my dark rival disappoints me
His presence gives me some fun
Yet I shall fall from grace

His justice is a personal vendetta
Derived from beliefs he created
Based on an iron law
Prosecuted by the judge, himself

He always hides in black, he thinks he is a dark soul. Always brooding, confronting my very mind. He is the only friend I have, the only interesting aspect of my life. And even though I wish him dead, i wouldn't know what to do afterwards.

So I crown myself in white and green
Red splashed across my lips
As I look in the mirror, clean
I ask...
Why so serious
This poem isn't my personal views. Just a thought of the Joker and how he falls slowly in to madness.

Step Back
Thomas Walsh Feb 2014
I take a step back from hell
Only to fall deeper
Hot air blows past me
As hope is knocked out

The sky grows dimmer
Brimstone enters my lungs
Breathing smoke and fire
I struggle for air

My vision becomes blurry
Demons damage my soul
Pain envelopes everywhere
I scream out and am not heard

I stop...........

Fighting what can't be fought
I struggle through until I free myself
I clear my breath
And my eyes awake

I'm back where I began
To take a step once more
One step from hell
I walk forward

Red
Thomas Walsh Feb 2014
Red
I want a Red headed woman
Hair that walks on Fire
Burning with a deep Passion
The soul of a Goddess
Eyes as Ivory Emeralds
Lips that are touched by the Sun
And a Heart which none can Conquer

Love is
Thomas Walsh Feb 2014
Love is a fickle thought
That toys with my mind
Love is a bitter memory
Which keeps me in binds

Love is a fleeing moment
Who avoids my grasp
Love is a fighting spirit
That kicks my ***

Love is a beautiful tyrant
That takes everything away
Love is a cruel passion
Working me 'til i pay

Love is a lone work day
Bending and breaking me
Love is a blind walk
Tripping over all I see

Love is a waterfall
Drowning all that is below
Love is a steep mountain
Cold, dark, and full of snow

Love is a cool brisk spring
Filled with light and longing
Love is an autumn breeze
Wrapped warm in belonging

Love is a deep feeling
Welling up from my soul
Love is a lasting bliss
An everlasting goal

Haikus
Thomas Walsh Feb 2014
The Black wilted rose
Steps in to the midnight sun
To bloom nevermore


I wake up laughing
The earth spins around my heart
Lifting me higher
Thomas Walsh Feb 2014
I cry out to old pain
Erupting inside my mind.
Thoughts, driving me insane,
I don't have enough time.

I cannot let go
As there is no ease.
The strife knocks me down
Begging on my knees.

Cringing on bitter memories
That only hold me back
I lie here in silence
As my whole world turns black.

I find an ounce of hope
Shining in my palm.
I stare at it reluctantly
My heart beating calm.

— The End —
