Hooves clop, knives chop, it has begun Home from the war, the men are returning Girls weep, men sleep, home at last Men drink, glasses chink, bring more beer Lively and full of folly, drinks all round Sun shines, laughter lines, just love here Birds sing, bells ring, war is done Boys and girls runContinue reading “War is over”

Let me live this lie
Look me in the eye and tell me everything will be okay. I don’t care if it’s a lie. I don’t care that the world is crumbling around us. I just want to hear you say it. We’re going to be okay. If I don’t hear it, I cannot fight. And I refuse to goContinue reading “Let me live this lie”
Sinking Souls
Sink into the water And float on the darkness Let your life float up in bubbles As you drop into the arms of the abyss Monsters exit their deep caves to feast Your arms, legs, eyes All become fodder for these elder gods Dropping deeper into the blue Soulless and unafraid The demons in yourContinue reading “Sinking Souls”
Harmony, symphony and Starlight
We danced upon the ocean And swam among the clouds Dreams and visions enlightened and submerged The water was living within your gaze The sky was in mine As separate as day and night And just as joined Reaching towards the moon Whilst hiding from the sun Its light is too bright for me toContinue reading “Harmony, symphony and Starlight”
Beauty in damnation
There is beauty in damnation. The purity of corruption and the childishness of sin. Looking for the next problem to pull ourselves closer to the darkness. Closer to home. Vanity is beauty Damnation is pride The two are so closely linked that they are often intertwined. One was the fallen Icarus. The other shining Narcissus.Continue reading “Beauty in damnation”
Together Forever
You have always been destined to destroy me. We knew from the beginning. It was fated by my heart and yours. But still I stayed by your side in the hope that our fortune would change. Here we are; covered in blood and screaming – leaving this world as we joined it. It matches usContinue reading “Together Forever”
Who am I
I am in beauty I am in song I am the voice in your heart; The invisible hand, helping you to stand I am the wind I am the water I pull the leaves off the trees; But I fuel their rebirth, help them grow I am in dance I am in laughter I amContinue reading “Who am I”
Lifeline
I held onto you Clutched onto you Hand in hand The wind it took you You floated away from me I lost my grip You reached back for me I reached out for you Fingers touched Grasping tighter now Fighting nature’s cruelty Intertwined Locked together tight We watched the passing storm Tying our lifelines
Limbo
There is a man on the road. He is running. Is he being chased? I don’t know. But he keeps running. Running like his life depends on it. Running fast. I don’t know why that man is running. He looks scared. Very scared. There’s something following him. Something big. Something scary. I’m safe inside. ButContinue reading “Limbo”
A Woman Scorned
I’ll show you what a woman scorned looks like You strike me, I’ll bite back You push me into a corner, I’ll force my way forward I will not be distilled I will not be dumbed down If you start a fight, I will finish it And it is you who will fall Not meContinue reading “A Woman Scorned”
