Taking the weight off
SleepEasy Mar 2021
The scientist thought he was smart and clever
Until he got a runny nose
He couldn’t even cure the common cold

****** got applause
Jesus got the cross

There are two wolves inside you
Only one is good
Feed the good wolf

Don’t try to save the whole world, that’s dumb
Just look after yourself and your loved ones, ***

The tide
SleepEasy Mar 2021
I rode the waves, got caught up in the moment
In those days, I felt like I was flying through space
Without a care, I did things most wouldn’t dare
But then the waves receded, left me flopping  on the shore
And shaken to the core, when I realized I did things I abhor
I have nothing more to say
The Lord gives, and the Lord takes away

The jog
SleepEasy Mar 2021
I run because I can’t stand being near you
If I run faster, it might dry my tears
But I’ll never get back the years I’ve wasted on you

Intrusive Thoughts
SleepEasy Jan 2021
A lack of understanding, a loss of faith
I hate myself, I vow to never be the same
Since you left, I'm not having fun
I'm under attack, from what I've done

So now I feel lust, it won't go away
I want *** so bad, every day
At night I dream of it, in the morning I forget
And try my best to be celibate

I want love, but not really
Can't stop using habitually
My time's running out, the clock's ticking
I waste my days on what's addicting

I've lost it all before, but now I've lost my mind
I hate all women, even if they're kind
I lost my place on earth, I've lost my grace,
but really I've fallen from high up in space.

Someone help me, for I am lost
Save me, O God, in whom I trust
The task is great, but if there's a cure
Take away my thoughts impure

A Simple Cure
SleepEasy Jan 2021
Still the mind, be silent for once
Bind the thoughts, they've run their course
Slam the door, on the inner voice
For peace's sake, your must make this choice.
Calm the waters within you, and then you will find
There's a force outside you, that's loving and kind
Its presence is true, its power sublime
let it wash away the cobwebs and grime.

Alone In Despair
SleepEasy Jan 2021
As my heart plummets, I feel its weight
Oh my stomach... it's not what I ate
I'm in a trance, can you relate?
Give me a chance, let me reiterate

If I deigned to inform you, if I were to say
I'll die alone; would you then pray
Or would you be inconvenienced for a day?
Let me say it a different way

I walk in the dark, bruises and  bumps
Without any talk, my body jumps
As my heart pumps, I'm falling fast
Until the thump, which I feel last

When I lie, I cover my head;
I lie face-down, and wish I was dead.
Curiosity killed the cat, it wasn't sought;
In my belly it went, without a thought.
You say I’m fat, I say I’m not.
Your interest in me, it makes me hot.
I say I am, you say I’m not.
You say I’m poor, what I have I bought.
If you think I’m bad, to single me out,
Consider this person who flouts about.

I cover my eyes when I walk the street;
I scribble notes, then toss the sheet.
My lustful heart, it can't be true;
If you take me in, I’ll nurture you.
I walk around, searching for warmth;
Please let me in, out of the storm.
My road leads to you, out here it’s cold;
I’m feeling blue; I’ll do as I’m told.
My liver’s battered, I’ve lost my soul.
My heart is shattered, my stomach’s a hole.
I’ll work for food, I’ll clean your clothes.
I’ll wash your dishes, I’ll clean your kitchen;
and If you hit me again, I’ll stop my *******.

You better stop *******, and get back in the kitchen.
Use your tongue, lickin you’ll clean my toilet bowl.
I own your soul; I own your life and all your holes
and all your curves; don’t get on my nerves.
When I spit, you’ll open your mouth;
get on my couch, let’s go for a joyride.
Open wide, and in it slides;
I’ll take you out, there’s nowhere to hide.
you are mine; get in line.
I’m going out, when I get back
I’d better see you at work, not in slack.
When I get back, we’ll go somewhere
Anywhere, there’s no one who dares to confront me.

You say there’s no one to confront you, I’ll take you out
I’ll slide it in, the cracks in the pavement will swallow your blood.
And then I’ll dance in a trance
I prance on fools like you, your blood makes me drool.
Your blood makes me wet, a warm sweat.
I’m always watching, you're sought out;
from your own ******, you won’t be bought out.
Your last breath, I’ll breathe it in;
You’ll pay with your death, for your heinous sin.
I don’t fear jail; I want to see you wail;
violence is my calling, I’ll watch you fall.
I’ll write you a song, then chill with my ****.
Cause when I'm gone, I'll know I’ve done no wrong!

No, you won’t do it!
I’ve taken your knife and threw it!
Can’t you see I’m alone,
that I have no one else, cool it!
I remember the story of how you were born;
The day I let you out of my sight I abhor.
I adore you; you will be mine.
I’ll whip you in shape if you fall out of line.
What a dumb thought of a crime, forget it;
I’ll make you some food and you’ll eat it.
I’ve made your bed, and turned on your tv
By tomorrow morning you will clearly see
that you are mine and were made for me.

He was made for you, but what about me?
Your youngest son? Hello? Look mommy!
I’m doing well in school, I make good grades
I watch you all day, so don’t forget about me!
My friends in school all love me,
Hey! Look! I made a drawing!
And dad let me borrow his playstation 3!
Wanna watch some TV? I like cooking
I’ll clean after I eat, are you looking?
****! When you tucked me in last night,
did you think about how much I fight?
I hate you, you’re no good to me
You are a *****, a no good ******
Now cook me some **** food, I’m hungry.

I pray all day, I’ve so much to say;
I close my eyes, to think of a way.
When I reflect, I'm with my sect
Then I go home, where I’m left unchecked.
The other day I tripped, and the crow cawed;
the tree shook, yet the daylight was broad.
I sleep face-down, or curled like a hook;
What I have I took, when no one looked.
Show me a sign god, don’t give me that look.
When I read a book, I see nothing; I’m blind!
I may be dying, but you're unkind!
I am fish bait, that's walked off the shelf;
For the end I'll wait no longer; I’ll do it myself!

Chapter
SleepEasy Dec 2019
A boy appeared, so bright and pure
He thought forever he'd endure
A girl adored his charming grace
She knew his ways, he knew his place

He wanted to give her a piece of his heart
Hoping she'd give him hers so they'd never part.
But he knew not how to say no;
Infatuated and unguided, he gave her his soul.

She took his soul, like food on a plate;
She swallowed it whole, alone she ate.
And when he came to see her face,
she turned away, and left the place.

After that a part of him slowed,
not knowing why, so slightly it showed.
His graceful light was being robbed from him,
A part he thought would never fade.

Not wanting to be seen, he no longer walked the land
His knees became weak, he could hardly stand
His face so pale, and weight he gained
He turned to alcohol to help his pain

But then the darkness began to fade
He didn't know he was dreaming, that he'd awake
He knew he must not choose such a fate
Chapter closed, he'll have to wait

Fallen

if a person is fallen, can they get up at all?

Food for the Walrus
SleepEasy Nov 2019
What do we get
What do we earn
When you forget
What did you learn

Our services spurned
You left us to shake
Left us to burn
Left us to break

If I had a wish
I would not be a warrior
My friends sleep with fish,
Food for the walrus

Forgiveness
SleepEasy Oct 2019
To love someone who flirted with you
without feel a thing
To love someone who deserted you
after taking everything
To love someone who hurt you
and left you on the floor
Takes more strength than anything
I've ever done before.

— The End —
