10 months

Our little baby girl

In your little baby world

10 months passed so quick

We don’t regret one bit

You allume our day with your smile

Your blue eyes gleaming all the while

Play with your toys make a mess

Say our names our little princess

Make us feel better with a little hug

Show mummy and daddy your baby love

A little one

.

What would we do for them?

With their continuing innocence

Their regard always sweet 

Always have their confidence

.

Sometimes shy not for long

Until they’ve assessed it all

That inquisitive behavior constantly

More than us even though they’re small

.

Testing all the time 

To try and make us scream

A reaction is all they need

Your cracking at the seams

.

Jealousy is interesting 

how they react

Another child comes along

Parents love still intact

.

A little cuddle here and there

So soft like it’s a dove

Their insecurities shining through

Cause they need to feel loved

Limbo, ahhhhhh!

I’m in limbo, frustration constantly

Knot in my stomach waiting impatiently

Awaiting the days just to trickle past

Feeling like a novel, feeling, well, alas

Annoyed, biting into my hands

Each meal I eat increasingly bland

Ahhhhhhh I want to scream would it help?

If I punch myself and make myself yelp?

Tell me please I need to know

Why this constant suffering, this woe?

Trying to read, play, sleep even clean

Lol the last time I did, the floor actually gleaned

Motivation zero, what is even the point?

Nothing will make it better, not even a joint

What will I do? What choice do I have?

Just bloody sit here and hope it will not last

Think about …

Have you ever took the time to watch

To observe everyone, never that much?

We are all in a trance we do not reflect

People’s actions all aimlessly direct

How did you get to work? Automatic?

I bet you hadn’t even thought about it?

Did you change gears use the brakes?

Check in your mirror look at a lake?

Caught up in the daily grind

So much just going on behind

Pay attention otherwise the days will pass by

You won’t even see them go you will only sigh

Tick tock goes the clock hear it in your ears?

Draining sands dwindling, eating at your fears

Expired, passed it’s best, rotting away

Forget tomorrow, think about today!

depression · family · Life

Cry for help

I want to give everything

Take all I have, make it sting

Open me up read me like a book

Analyze me, take a thorough look

Cut me deep to make the crimson flood

Stem the bleeding it’s too much

Dont like what you hear, what you see

I’m just so messed up, sorry I am me!

Smear it all over, smile ear to ear

Chuckle devilishly, taunt and cheer

Having second thoughts, too late now

Such a coward, you don’t know how

Cry like a mess, feel sorry for yourself

What’s the matter, you been left on the shelf?

Take deep breaths can’t be long now

Escape from your hell, take a bow

Sorry call for help cause you call for no one

Of course not, otherwise where would be the fun?

In your twisted little mind fragile as it is

You think about yourself trying to do the biz

Think about the others all around you

What the hell are they going do do?

Do they deserve to lose you, really, no one cares?

Think about it beforehand instead of giving scares

Talk to someone, you must share, don’t be alone

For God sakes pick up the god damn phone!

Gently driving home

On way back home

2 days away

Christmas with loved ones

Surprises were at bay

.

Soon to return

To normality

En route in the car 

With coffee

.

Behind in the car

Looking all around

Seeing all these cars

With presents that surround

.

My baby in front seat

Trying to make me laugh

Mummy driving gently

As other cars go past

Peel back my skin

Disect me like a butterfly

Read me like a book

Take my final sting like i am a bee

As i gasp with my final breath i took

.

Passionate as the week is long

To never quit until the task is done

To improve with every mistake I make

To collapse from when all is won

.

To inhale madness like it’s oxygen

Filling entirely my lungs

To bounce off the walls 

Just to exercise some fun

.

You think you know me now

From observing afar

Peel back my skin look inside

And reopen my scar!
