I'm not really here
right now,
please come back

When I'm not a torn
piece of paper,

dripping
muddy colors

Come find me again
when I'm a sculpture,
dancing in
bright shades.

sweet candy into sour mouth
throne made of porcelain
and crossed legs

she never leaves her home
because she made it
for herself
The wine tastes like bliss as it pours down my throat

Add a few pills to the mix to try and fill this gaping hole

I do this

So I can get to sleep

All I long for-

Eternal peace

Because the days feel so long

And not being able to feel anything

Hurts, it hurts more than feeling at all

I would pray for sadness

I would pray for anger

Both two things

I can hardly bare

But I would rather know that I have emotions

Rather than be empty forever  

Because the emptiness,

It kills.
If you want to make a killing;
invest in war.
Seems to work,
for Blair, Bush et al.
Those that follow
the hunger of their self aggrandised,
destiny's lore.
So, roll out the blood red carpet,
leading to the future's hungry jaw.
Wrap yourself up in the night,
with wingless silent flight.
Up, up into the
Pin-pricked speckled sky.
With that glowing blank-faced
lunar loon.
Beyond the dark, into dreams.
That morph and shift, pour and flow;
As if the woken world is
something you can un-know.

how is it
that sometimes I feel
so full of life
that
my body cannot
contain the joy
that is within me
while sometimes I feel
so empty
that
my body aches
for a hope
that is not there

I asked myself
what is your biggest fear?
I heard myself reply
my biggest fear is
to be deeply known
but not loved deeply
