Epitaph


How do you grieve the loss of a loved one?
How can you possibly be expected to carry on?
How do you cope when a loved one is hurting?
How do you cope with the loss of your Mom?


You remember the good times you spent together;
You remember the times you laughed and cried.
You remember your loved one always, forever;
You forget the fact your loved one has died.


They wouldn’t want to see you sad;
They would want to see you laugh.
They wouldn’t want you to suffer in silence;
Remember their love, for it is the best you will ever have.


So goodbye Nan,
Goodbye Mom,
Goodbye Friend,
Goodbye my loved one.

Desire


All my wishes and all that could have been,
Became a dream I never could reach.
I crave for things I cannot attain.
My brain won’t allow me to make those same mistakes again.


So alone I stay and alone I lay.
I still dream of better days,
But that future seems like it is a long way away.


The rain pours down inside my heart;
It’s cold in this part of my body of scars.
Wounds will not heal, when I can no longer feel,
The warmth of her love,
In this nightmare which has become real.


Dark days are upon us.
Without the opportunity of love, I can be no star.
Love is needed to bring some kind of happiness to my memoir.
I want to have a life where I am allowed to just write,
But that life is unattainable, without a wife.


I need motivation, to change my situation,
But being single makes me,
Apathetic to being all I can be.


Words speaking of sorrow leave me wanting to be more positive,
But I can never forgive and I don’t know how to live,
This never ending story of searching for glory;
Or just acceptance, that my lines are worthy.

Brooding to breed.


Brooding to breed, too eager to feed,
To create this thing, inside your tummy.
In a rush to give life, before you have even lived.
Needing a baby, whilst you yourself are still a kid.


It sounds so nice, to become a Mother and Wife;
But what of your future?  Are you sure you’re mature enough?
Have you truly experienced this thing called life enough?
And will not regret the missed chances,
You could have had without this child.


Are you sure, you can really provide,
For the entirety of this child’s adolescent life?
Do you have a partner, who will never walk away?
When things get too bad, are you sure they will stay?


Can you truly cope and be sure you can give this child all it needs?
Are you sure this man is truly worthy?
Of being a father and are you sure you can be a good Mother?
If he’s not or you’re not sure;
Maybe an abortion you should consider.

It’s that time of year
once again.


It’s that time of the year; it is here once again.
It’s time for the kids to be opening presents.
It’s that time of the year; it is here once again,
To get all you wanted and some things you didn’t.


So we thank you Lord, for giving us Christmas;
So we thank you Santa, for bringing us presents.
So we thank you Jesus, for giving us Christmas;
So we thank you Santa, for bringing us presents.


Because we couldn’t cope, if we didn’t have toys,
To make the girls happy; as well as the boys.
The Christmas party, another affair;
It’s time to relax and let down your hair.


It’s time to remember, those who aren’t loved;
We must mock them and jeer them, for they are not like us.
It’s time to forget, the stress of the cost;
Three months of anticipation, will soon be forgotten.


And now the wrapping is on the floor, the box has been discarded;
Whole days are wasted preparing the lunch,
Or to drink at the Christmas parties.
Then New Year comes and we make false promises;
Just a day after Christmas day,
Yet another argument has started.


The presents we loved have lost their shine;
Since we went back to school
And saw their presents were better than mine.
The poorer families were happy on Christmas day;
But consumerism took that happiness away.

Headlights


I’m heading home now to see my Wife;
I’m gonna kiss her and hold her tight;
Because I think she is so wonderful;
My love I love you.
You are so beautiful.


Driving home on a winter’s night.
All I’m seeing are those **** headlights.
Those blinding lights, those bright, bright lights.
Those killer lights, have taken my life.

16 stages of falling in love and 13 is my lucky number.



1 – ATTRACTION

Who are you?  You are beautiful.
Who am I?  I’m…I’m shy.


2 – DESIRE

I think you are beautiful too,
But I’m just a regular guy.


3 – PASSION

No you’re not; you’re hot!
So are you my **** temptress.


4 – LUST

So what do you say lover?
Do you want to go to bed?


5 – NEED

More! I need more!  I want you again!
But I’m knackered!  Don’t do that.  Ok…I’m your slave.


6 – ACTION

Oh my God!  Which one?  Stop distracting my fun.
Oh my God!  This is so good!  I think I’m going to…


7 – HAPPY

Well, here we lay in each others arms.
We have satisfied our desires,
Now we just admire each others charms.


8 - SATISFACTION

She smiles at me with a seductive grin.
I can’t!  I’m exhausted!  
I want to go again!


9 – EMANCIPATION

Your wish is my command!  I shall give you your release.
But you will have to untie me first;
Before I get down on my knees.


10 – TOGETHERNESS

Cuddled up together, watching the television;
I see she could be the one.  
The one of whom this poem is written.


11 – CONSTANT

The one who has always been my True Love.
The one who will always be there for me, with a loving hug.


12 – HONESTY

I can tell her my thoughts; the good and the unfortunate.
I can be assured that I can trust her,
To not tell the entire internet!


13 – TRUST

For she could be the one in whom I could truly confide.
She could maybe, one day; become my wife.


14 - TRUTH

So my Love, I confess my soul at your feet.
I worship you my Goddess!  So I humbly speak.


15 – REVELATIONS

I want you to be mine, for the rest of time.
I want you too, I feel the same,
Will you always remain mine?


16 – LOVE

Now hand in hand we both walk, talking of Stage 1.
Our love has lasted a life time.
It has raised up to about Stage 1.01

The Meaning of Life


All I was and all I could have been,
Has been washed away by salty tears.
Memories I could not forget,
Are all I have left inside my head.


Thoughts are no longer processed here,
My brain has gone on strike.
All we want is to find a cure for this hurt,
But there is no salvation in this life.
Or the next, so what shall we do?
Give up trying just like you?


Maybe the light will shine for us one day,
Maybe the light will show us the way.
For you and I to be saved
And for this hurt to be erased.


There is the light I told you about,
The one to take away all your doubts
And answer those questions you asked.
How did I know this day would come to pass?
History told me this day was come,
My destiny was written in a former life,
Inside a gun, on the day I was born.


The meaning of life is to fulfil our destiny,
I now know the answer to what our destiny is.
Simply put; it’s not too good,
For our destiny can only be fulfilled with the aid of a bullet.
The meaning of life, the other big question,
Is birth, life, death and Heaven.
