Defuser


I am a truth-teller; I truly don’t know what you are.
I came here in search of peace and you are only seeking war.
We are very different; you and I are so far apart.
You are leading a different life to me;
You are failing to write under a dying light bulb, whilst I am a star.


You have to shout at me because your words are empty;
I whisper a reply that deafens your voice.
Why are you so angry that you are so far beneath me?
You know you are losing and it is not my fault.  You made that choice.


Fame and fortune by any means necessary;
If that is your only wish, then do as you will.
I will continue to be right and live free and properly,
As you trap yourself under your counterfeit popularity.
You can keep it;
I have no desire to be left with you at the bottom of that hill.


You are reaching for the stars, but your reputation is not big enough.
Just another name to forget; an optimist without a prayer.
I will become simply amazing without the shrill touch,
Whilst you will remain the same…
A long forgotten nobody, going nowhere.


Friends of the foolish speak no truth;
Take it to heart you arrogant loser.
In the end we will be left asking, who are you?
I will not be asked that question,
Because I will be known as the end of your time in the spotlight;
The moment you fall you will realise,
That I am your defuser.

In my mind a light no longer shines.


Picture no light shining inside your mind;
Maybe then you can see inside of mine.
All I have ever done means nothing now;
It was just a big waste of time.
My sparkles no longer shine for you;
There is no more light to be found in my eyes.

A throwaway poem


This is just a throw away poem;
Take it in or leave it to be.
I know exactly where this poem is going;
Some poems are just thrown away.
Thrown away, to you, from me.

Boo who?


My apathy is my gift.
Without it I would not be able to live.
If I had to always care,
Then I would exist in perpetual despair,
And you would all get under my skin.


Keep your love and share your money.
Love is just a word, you are so funny.
We say things exists, but let’s face it,
Do you really think that means anything?
Keep on with your dreaming.


I do not care about your wishes.
I have none of my own, no bucket list.
So leave me alone, it reminds me of a better time…
When I escaped your lies.


Gone and good riddance,
Adios and goodbye.
My eyes never even cried,
As my love for you died.

What a way to fly.


Dead on the ground, welcome to your end.
You are stuck in the mud searching for a way to survive,
But there is no hope for you to cling onto; this is your day to die.
Your doom is at your door, he has come calling for you;
It is time to say goodbye.


Your life is nothing more than a memory.
You’d be grateful to be dead.
Now your fortune has gone
And you’re just trying to stay alive, still taking those last breaths.


You can be scared to death of facing death,
But if you hide away and do not live,
Then your existence becomes worthless
And you end up with nothing left.


Forget me not's and coffin plots,
We wish our lives away preparing for the day.
I am the dead cowboy, no longer riding,
I have disappeared into the distance,
Heading for the horizon…
What a way to fly.

Vanished


As I walk through these gates ahead,
I am left, I am left; I am left behind.
In this cold world when there is nothing but regrets,
I fall to my knees to pray, all I can say is why?


As the beauty shines from up above,
I am alone in fields of thorns, waiting on a sign.
In a land of darkness, I am searching for true love,
But there is nothing out there to be found, all the flowers have died.


The roses I carry are wilting away,
The basket I made has holes throughout.
The hope I once had will never find me again
And as I fall I can no longer carry on, there is too much to doubt.


When I look up into the night sky,
All I see is an empty galaxy; we are alone in this life.
A single moon shines down upon me from way up high,
But I am without direction, because I am left broken
And I am without light.


My soul is calling out; wishes are the only words I have left.
I need to find myself a place where only I exist.
This place of humanity is without, all promises, never said.
As the darkness surrounds me I am buried by my regrets.


A haunting voice whispers in the wind
And I can hear the shadows calling my name.
A single whisper that is forever becoming,
Ten thousand voices; echoes remain.


Bones are all I have beneath my skin,
I have ejected all my feelings onto paper.
When the moon disappears behind a black cloud I begin,
To close my eyes, I vanish beneath,
The words that I shouted…into the never.

The creator of love.


Our hero rides again at night.
All dressed in black, still he cannot hide.
The man inside continues to shine.
You all know him, but he remains out of sight.


A reflection in a shop window that disappears as you turn your head.
Maybe he was never there.
Never let a bad word be said,
About his intentions,
There is no need to mention,
The way he moved you to be together.
He is spreading love around hoping your bond will never sever.


Karma is his friend and his only weapon;
He uses good vibrations to correct the mistakes of men.
He lifts a heart with his good intentions;
As he passes by he raises a hand and a smile comes into vision.
He needs no acknowledgement,
For he is content,
Knowing he has helped the two of you to figure it out.


The questions you had, he has put the answers into your head,
With all his whispered do not forgets.
Find love; cast your net,
For there are many fishes in this wild life of a sea,
So go find what you seek and he will do the rest.


He believes in love, so he believes in you;
Begin again with a love that is new.
A love letter arrives, beginning a new love life.
No thank you needed; a total surprise.
The present arrives at the right time,
For the day you forgot to remember to buy.
In your hour of need, send a wish out to him
And your dreams will all come true, he promises.
If you think you are ready to once more commit,
Then so be it; your love is a gift.


When your love is found,
He will float back into his cloud
And look out for the next believers;
You are content and do not need him now.


A lonely single person who is in need of being loved,
Will always find him when they need him,
For he is
The creator of love.
