A place in London
do no lights show
Underground the mice do flow
Everyday since long ago  
Workers ,families to and fro
Under ...Over ...Down below
Trains do rumble
Concrete hell

No hills of green
No mountain view
Just fumes and dust
A smell requel

They call this life
The under dwell
Underground
Under hell

Our capital of English darkness
can stay right there
Ill live for brightness
I love my world of trees and flowers  
Market Harborough
This eden ours

Over the water I fly
So be it
Through these wings I see them
Boys to become men
Men to fall old
Eyes to close for a countries fight
Never to return
Lest we forget

Billowing stacks of fumes fill me
Thousands upon thousands of mini islands
Floating away from their mothers womb
Dunkirk's morning is ready
Sand from the beaches in a foreign
Glistening
Waiting
Offering a hope that there is a tomorrow
Lest we forget

In the after much blood has been spilt
To many decisions have faltered
Yet come my demise from the great war
My purpose came
I know what these wings hold
I know how they fly
I know how they care
For the next
Lest we forget

Now as age creeps upon me I look back
I see the failed,fighting staled to a shortened breath
Redden eyes become my flooded floor
A storm rages within me for the loss of our past
For the waste of lost future
For the pain that I've seen
For the wars that I've witnessed
For the love of pure greed

LEST WE FORGET

Your heart will beat a million times more than mine
My hand will hold you here
My love will dry your tears
Take your pain
Hold you tight

I know not really why i say those means
My mind goes crazy it beats me deep within
Scars my soul from your thoughts
Breaks my heart
Tears me ....... halves

One dance is all I ask under a moonlight shine
Tango in the silver sun  
Hold me
Let me hide you the pain
Let me breath you a life
In time
Live again

Eyelids that wont close as
dawn awakes
Oh the dread of another
day

Pain behind my eyes
Yet no end from the pills
that blind my soul

Lifeless in a world so full
of gold
So full of hope
Torture from the past
Now hunting for my very future

Pain behind my eyes
Yet no end from the pills
that blind my soul

Stretching ...waking
Yet sleep evades another days
night

Pain behind my eyes
Yet no end from the pills
that blind my soul

See the world from a place
A place in fear of death
Light into my eyes show
no life begun
Just a past behind

Pain behind my eyes
Still no end from the pills
that blind my soul
Till the dust takes my breath
andy fardell Feb 17
Your death isn't painfull
No linger to ones hurt
It comes and leaves you senseless
It's really awfully cute

See its nothing more than toothache
A hindrance of mankind
Like dead leg of your body
Screaming comes to mind

Let pain be left to others
A will you'll never hear
Missing smiles and laugh a lots
It's gone all nots to fear

So face your fears in waters breath
There's nothing to be scared
The pain is all for others mind
Unless you sing out loud
andy fardell Jun 2011
Pain behind my eyes

eyelids that wont close as dawn awakes ...oh the dread of another day
pain behind my eyes yet no end from the pills that blind my soul
lifeless in a world so full of gold so full of hope
torture from the past now hunting for my very future
pain behind my eyes yet no end from the pills that blind my soul

stretching ...waking yet sleep evades another days night
Pain behind my eyes yet no end from the pills that blind my soul
see the world from a place ...a place in fear of death
light into my eyes show no life begun just a past behind
Pain behind my eyes still no end from the pills that blind my soul

The cold of the night hid my grief
Rid my longing
Stole my colour
And painted me black

Inside I was dead
Empty
Wasted for the scrap
Crying from a future
On ears of silent

My dark look ahead
lights all blinkered out
Wishing I was gone
Washed
To screams of a shout

He laughs at all my sadness
Weeps his tears of joy
The angel from the dark side
Plays his music  

Wake me into sunlight
Wake me from this world
Hold my hand complete me
Wash the black away
Wash it all
Away

Paradise oh paradise the road to heaven waits
for you and me sometime long way
a dream of heavens place
a sight so found remembered sounds of beauty

Our paradise oh paradise the road to heavens place

Such skies of blue a sunsets hue a wonder in our eyes
where we hold hands as dusk commands a heaven
calls the new
Oh paradise our paradise oh heaven be our place

This hour will be our fate
our road to heaven
our place to dance to love and be as one
Oh paradise our paradise our road to you has come  
On heavens road is paradise a place for us somewhere
a dream come true for me and you
forever our amen

They follow like the ants they are
No feelings ,thoughts of who which or
No questions of their past behind
No issues going forwards ...trite

They pay their taxes ,say the yes
No questions of the rules or jest
What has become this life on earth
An ant no questions asked or cursed
Are we not born all from the same
Blood and sweat ...a fathers dream  

Belittle from your readings here
But think it through till you think clear
Upon you learning how to ask
you'll know your future
past is past

This day I seek peace yet I find the souls
That surround me
Seek no such light
Their fight is of a purity that no one can touch
This need of a  purpose
A need for a life

This day let the good in from the dark
The earth lowered to the sight of the sun
To bring life into hope
Troubles long gone to a place
That lifeless lones need no introduction

Those souls of hell
Had  a place of warmth that
Chilled you to your bones
Thoughts of fighting ingested
Through breaths of fire
Fed from the deep deep
Pits of tartarus

Besides,here we are and I am happy
And this happiness needs no introduction
My peace is made
Those souls around me are empty of war
Yet full of words that have no voice  
One day they will see the light
Be their anger
Paper torn
andy fardell Dec 2012
The petals fell away to allow us to see
The beauty we knew that the
flower could be
Rose tinted glasses withheld us
the view
Yet under this makeup we all
really knew

Bright flower of beauty
Bright flower of love
Such glorious colour's
A rainbow in gold  

The clover dressed prince tried harder
than ever
To take you away revealing
your layers
But we understood that all of
his lies
Would come back and be haunt him
His loss
Our eyes  

Bright flower of beauty
Bright flower of love
Such glorious colour's
Bedazzled above

Yet many have tried
Never peeled to the end
They don't know your inner
They don't understand
You wanted some fun
Someone lovely and spice
No prince of dark clover
No wondrous lies

No shelving would suit you
A classiness see
Such colour's of beauty
as petals reveal
a flower of niceness one day
falls to you
A love gone the blindness
As one becomes two
andy fardell Apr 2013
Let the petals fall away
Be my eyes in motion
As beauty bestows the very words
You breath
No flower has your colour
No rainbow has your look
An angel heaven sent
Is what you are to me

I love the look you love
Lips touch for your skin
The purr of a longing kiss
of red velvet
As you become my side
Silently you tell me
Let me tell them all
Our love
Let the petals fall away
My love
Fall
Fall
Away
andy fardell Dec 2024
Can you not see it in their eyes
Just look around
They've been fooled
And the film has started

Watch as they seek
Search for the need
In the palm of their hand
Controlled

Fooled by the few
They now walk without a look
Speak misunderstood as we all hear
Waiting for the siren
28

I too have been taken
Glued to my skin
Days all the numbered
Screen to the blindness

Days become the weeks
Weeks become the years
You know it's coming
28

Pieces of Eight

The piece fits yet my heart cries a sorrow
Saddened and lonely as I walk the dusted path
Flowers trodden,grass all straw my heaven all a front
These tears a drowning pool

Last night was nearly over
This breath a rasp of roars
A fight on the continue
I live another day

So I must sparkle in this madness
Make every second count
You'll never know the ending
Blackness broken out
andy fardell Jun 2012
Stilled dulled by the whisky yet crying out for more
my head is in the other place that time when laugh was pure
No work to have to make my mind to stop the dreaded fall
my drinking days are numbered ...gods time to make that call

You'll see me in the gutter all dressed from night before
Ive been that way for ages my smell is looking raw
I scrape and scrimp for tea sometimes when clear head wins me over
yet cider stops me shaking good ...that time from being sober

Been here for months its now my home my cardboard roof as shelter
a doorway in a suburb state a shop I cannot enter
no thought on time or day in night my life has gone its over
Oh coldness please just do your job ..yes father dear please answer
andy fardell Oct 2011
as i start to feel my lids close down on another day of life
I think of all the changes made on peoples passeth time
its said we change in many ways and we were all as one
yet why do we fight it out and do not get along

they fight for oil ..its liquid gold and care not of the others
shame we cant just live in peace and dance around our brothers
they care not of the people and care no less for us
for somel we are working tool that see a fit for purpose

live as one and share the wealth and we would all be rich
but no the money aint for us cos we dont plummy whiff
maybe one day things could change..now that would be a sight
when we can live as equals and fight for equal rights

Poems of Remembrance

War is defined as a form of political violence however I rather hate to like the following quote by this Prussian military general in 1832

"War is thus an act of force to compel our enemy to do our will."

We vote in our leaders to refrain from such yet allow them to use us as pawns in their world.I will be remembering and thanking all those who have will and do give up their life's so that i can at least be free to make such thanks

............................................
Lest we forget

The stench of decay hung in the air
Along with the gases from the badlands
Rain had turned the trenches into another bog for the day
STAND TO LADS !!!
the Sergeant barked his mornin song

Spell broken by the first shell of the morning
lucky day ...BOOM .....lucky day
Breakfast usual as the new boys showed no fear
Hide ya head son as another disappeared
Snipers doing their work already...
A scream now silenced short

The morning hate over
Patrolling life began
SHhhhh!! no gunfire
The 2 sides master plan
Machine guns a ready shall cut you complete
Hand to hand and man to man
Bayonets flash besieged

Returned to base to lick their wounds
A fight amongst the rats
Black and brown did rule the roost
A feeding frenzy plan
The lice did all they could to help
Trench fever did its dance
Another day
STAND TO!!! he barked
We stood with baited breath

This was what they signed for
A short war all at plan
And what did they all die for
This life I thank you man

Lest we forget

.......................

A Poppy Remembered

A flower held hand as the young girl
reaches up for her mothers grasp
The reddest of velvet's reflected from
her tears on eyes as her poppy
stands proud and straight

Remember their sacrifice
As you join in their stand
An honour to hold one
Red poppy to hand

She knows why she's standing
She know no return
Her father not here now
His never come home

He fought for his country
He fought for his life
He fought for his honour
His family
Our life

Remember this girl that cries every night
No father to hold her
Is gone from this earth
Yet she is the proudest
A daughter could be
Because of her father
Gave life
For you
...and for me

........................
Poppy day

In between the hills lays a land of green green grass
Where the heavens made their love of life
And gods sung of such sight
Be the lands that they did fight for us the green green grass

Oh green the land of warriors
The land we all do dwell
Green the grass the layman loves
True paradise be felt

In battle times and truces found the land did best it could
Yet all of them who fought for us they knew and understood
The green land see found their place to die for poppy's blood
A land we wished we all could live a world of peace and love

Oh green the land of warriors
The land we all do dwell
Green the grass the layman loves
True paradise be felt

Someday the land will fill our souls and peace will win the day
The green green land will be our rest god bless to all we pray
In those who fought so we could see the green green land this way
We praise and silence once a year remembrance poppy day
.....................

Remember

Remember what they fought for
Remember why they fell
Remember all the killings
The living life in hell

Remember what they did for us
Remember who they were
Remember all the people
That they did fight and fall

A day to show our pride
A day to bow our heads
A day to mourn our family
Lest we forget

I watched as he etched
Blue colours so fine
A face that he painted
All hidden and light
Looking and staring he knew not I write
The man and his drawing
I studied his plight

Looking once more in my study
My itch
I needed to look at his drawing
So rich
The man he did scribble I see not his face
Intriguing my wanting
My look out of place

Now do I approach him
A tap or a smile
The man and his drawing
A wandering while
Do I disturb this master at work
The etch of the finest
Da Vinchi
I errk

Presure within no mortal sin as it encloses me deep inside
I fear no-one yet fear the emptyness that my heart colides
fear of loosing ..fear of failure deep inside my heart is weighted
the presure mounts the fight goes on hearing sounds that i dont wish

Music cries a thousand ways so why cant I breakout today ..I feel it shouting wake me up but how can I return my own self destruct
music still a shouting loud ..so why oh why do I feel no calm no peace no freedom home
tortured eyes yet show no give.. the fires gone a coldness lives
andy fardell Oct 2013
I promised not to moan today
The feeling sad
The road to rage
I promised not to show these thought's
A promise made
My god
Oh lord  

I lasted but a day or two
The madness swelled
The air turned blue
I promised failed
A head in shame
My shout out loud
It's you I blame

Now some of you will laugh at me
But just you watch
I'll wait you see
Cos just around the corner here
You'll moan at something
Be that clear
And when you start you'll
Stop and smile
I promise you
A laugh out loud
andy fardell Feb 2013
The sadness came about my eyes
A call I'd not expected
His pa now gone
This life his soul
Another place  
To young to be departed

A suffer him for a while
Now peace to come
A different style
His man has climbed his mountain

For family grief
For hands to hold
For life to bless the living
The time to share the old and new
A rally is a calling

Stand shoulders wide my bro
The time has come
The man you grow
Be brave for all around you
Your father stands
He's there so proud
Puruṣārtha complete
A tribute to a close friend's father who passed away this week
andy fardell May 2012
Its time to get your shoes on
to dance the day away
Its time to wave the flag
to celebrate OK
Tis 60 years to celebrate
Queens diamond jubilee
Amazing thats she's done it
such total respect I please
Yeah sure we've had some bad times
and memories to have missed
Yet still she is our head of state
and stronger than a brick
So your majesty ..in your honour
this ditty is for you
because you are our Queenie
Our nation loves you ..loves you do
andy fardell Feb 2011
I feel it course so through my veins
waiting ,testing me again
it wants to rule and take me over
anger ,rage my sugar fever!!!

Family hide and duck my fear
anger ,rage is so so near
feel it gaining ,getting there
anger ,rage ..my glucose lever !!

Take a breath ,do no harm
sit and fight out till the calm
there it stays until again
anger ,rage ..my sugar mist !!

I can hear it
I can smell it
Can you see the rain
I'm wet

Cos I'm stuck inside my shell
This home
All ready
Drips the death

Waiting for the animal
Waiting for the dry  
My thirst is breaking out of here
My reach is for the sky  

Water water
Cleanse my soul
Wash over me
This hurt

A drop once more
Falls by my side
One taste  
My slip.. the edge  

So breath me in
And wash me out
I'm looking for the sun...
One day we'll be together soon
One day
That's sure to come
andy fardell Feb 2014
The earth cries blood from the vessels of life
No haven from the tide of torture about to bequeath
This well trodden land
For 40 days and 40 nights we have bowed our heads
In shame
And still the rain comes

Torrent after torrent to feed our guilt
We pray for sun
An answer that never comes
Tears from the land
Swallow us
Devour us
Feed on our expected want

The land has left and my boat
Is filled
For the masses the search is on
In new pastures
A new life
A new way to treat ourselves
I wait for the calm

Sun oh shine down on my life
Shine down on this world
As I land for the ready
Underneath my look the green shoots
Flow  
Hold my hand and  
Let the fun begin
andy fardell Jul 2016
I wish I could write a thousand rainbows to your heart
Sing you a million colours from the sky  
kiss away your sadness
As we lay

Wouldnt that be nice
Being so right
From a world full of wrongs
Let me paint you my song

Can you hear what I see
Can you feel
In the you
My love ....
andy fardell Jan 2012
Rain beating faster than my soul
as earth softens to the power in this world
madness looking at youth yet
young are fearless to the torture to unfold

leaders follow all that is led
yet who are we to challenge spoken hearts
when inside is dead to us
bled the un-bled

future horrors in minds so demeted
our shame so on show to the world
a world so scorched with stains from
failings as oceans wash and wash
to no avail as our life falls and fails
andy fardell Jul 2011
My night was broken to the sound i feared
rain did noise from ear to ear
i hate that sound when so alseep
dreams escaped me ...let me sleep

hear the drips from somewhere ...out
drip drip drip there is no doubt
awake and so tired yet still i hear drip drip drip
in me ear

feel the wetness as cars fly by
still the dripness ...madness cry
rain please stop and let me sleep
calm the madness inner me

pray for sunshine in the morning
give us sunlight through the dawning
let me sleep so i feel fresh ..stop the rain
or i'll be yawning
andy fardell Dec 2012
A sadness fell about these eyes
This was another day
Another wasted life
One look into the mirror as the old man
Stared right back

A glimmer of a past in life
Now hardness be in black
All clouds now full of thunder
No sunshine on my back

Memories dulled as day falls
Over  
Another night of lost
Leafed clover
Had seen the best in days
From nights not sober

Be friends lost to frosted haze
Blurred Pints of cash in tippled over
My eyes remember as crippled
Shaken hands
Show suns age wine

Body all bent to a bend to the
stick
Mirror look the other way
My world is in a spin
Fall into the earth
The time to reach up high
New life beginning
Reaching for the sky
andy fardell Jul 2024
Really Number 6

What have you done
Where is my sun
Have you hidden it
Taken all it's glow
July is shivering
Drowning in the rain
Give me back my sunshine
Take away the grey

I want to feel the warmth
Golden coloured land
Sun be in my vision
Buckets in the sand
Ice cream dripping down me
Sweat upon this brow
Give me back my sunshine
Calling number 9
andy fardell Feb 2011

Religion of the heart

As I saw the clouds departed
a view came in
my mind did wander whats within
why do we live as life we do

Is it all of me or all of you
all of me or all of you
what am i ?
where are you?  

Through rivers of tears from high above
those thoughts of life did me no good
I looked inside and saw my heart
it made my self ..fell apart

Was it all of me or all of you
all of me or all of you
I'll never know
where were you?

So beat it did and now I know
religions in my heart thats so
No god can tell me what to do
its all of me and all of you

All of me and all of you
our lives complete
no time in hell
just all of me and all of you
andy fardell Feb 2011
Remember what they fought for

A day to show our pride
a day to bow our heads
a day to moun our family
lest we forget

The sunlight left layers of warmth
Over my eyes
In turn I felt good
I was not a cold man
Yet many had said otherwise
My rye smile returned

These hands of mine had left many
Foundations on broken lives
You see I am your nightmare
I am the one that seeks you out
Where ever you are
Yet you will never remember me  

My days are spent wandering
Through cities of dust
Waiting for that time for rest
When I can ponder in and out
Your mind
Oh the joy
For I know you will wake

Beating ,racing heart
Leaves you perspired
And alert  
Then I'm to be gone
Well at least till tonight
That is..........
When once again I can enclose you
Put my hands around your
Thoughts
To leave you hoping for the dawn
After all I am your
Nightmare
andy fardell Apr 2016
They said that time would heal
But memories are here
In my heart
And I am bleeding out

Tear upon tear cannot cure me
Hand upon hand
Never calms me
From a raging No inside

Come now
It's only the few that remember
Only the few that recall
A story of life as we live it
Remembrance of how we are small

One's time will come to go join him
A time when nothing is all
Till then I continue this living  
So remember me
Remember me all

Remember

Remember what they fought for
Remember why they fell
Remember all the killings
The living life in hell

Remember what they did for us
Remember who they were
Remember all the people
For us did fight and fall

A day to show our pride
A day to bow our heads
A day to mourn our family
Lest we forget

Drip drip drip bled my heart
Tick tick tick sounds the clock
Fear fear fear from those eyes
As time strikes it's chime

Do you scare what I scare
Does your end feel as I
The game we play is chaptered
Our history of all we made

I won't fly far
A Robins song we'll sing
As the sun rises
As the moon falls
Sing sing sing ...it's OK

The voice with no name whispered unto me
Live your life
You know you can
Be bold
Be strong
Believe

My head lowered
I knew this right
Yet scared did I just know
How could I live like I could want
How can it be just so

Each step
Each breath
That sound in my heart
Playing
Running
Beating
This call to run away


The voice with no name whispered unto me
It's time to make the change
The chains no more
The holds no bared
It's time to run the world
andy fardell Nov 2011
Rods of rain run through me
cleanse my inner soul
taste the air of freshness
wash away the old
andy fardell Mar 2013
Darkness awaits these wary eyes as
The chorus of the day fills my body
Another town
Another place
Ready for the load
So be my precious

Oil filled jeans edge the way
To my rig of life
Rock to the ready
As music meets music
Mile after mile

Lonely in my solitude
See life pass
Everyday
Eyes meet eyes never a word said
But a nod feels the same

Call to the phone don't end the delays
Cuts from the cars that never give way
To shouts from a horn
Not looking
My day

Food all a plenty that fills fuller
Shirts
Sleeps for the bunk
Time wasted
Another life away
Long the day as loading still waits
Another 2 hours
Another delay

Trucking is life
A world on its own
A place for the madman
A place for the lone
Yet all this appeals to me and the few
This world is my playground
I'm here for the view
