When you have lost everyone you loved
What’s the point of living and not giving up?

Maybe the next time
As I awoke in my pit of despair
Laid out on the floor as a carcas left to rot
The flies were probably seeking their next meal
I was probably an eternity after the expiration date
Clutching my head as if it mattered
The afternoon sun pulsing through the dreary nets
The burning rays on my brow
Self pity was on my lips from the night before
Somewhere between the cheapest vodka and the stains on my shirt
A stream of bottles littered the floor
If only it was a river with a breakneck current
I wish it would suck me in never to return to my hell
Why is there always a next time?
An afternoon awakening sunrise
Maybe the next time I lose myself in the bottle
I can disappear for good

The thing about solitude is
The thing about solitude is
You can’t have enough
Even when you bathe in it
You’ve not had your drug
You want to be alone
Throughout all the day
You won’t go outside
Come what may
You don’t want to see friends
No not at all
Take the dog for a walk
Not your ball
You would rather stay inside
Drink and watch tv
For in our little head
It’s, well, to be free

Disease
.
Eating alive
Outside in
Deadly illness
Deep within
.
Days to live
Say goodbye
No one comes
Bitter lies
.
I deserve this
What I done
Deep regrets
Webs undone
.
Final breath
Painful how
Farewell world
Time is now

I want to fit in
.
I want to fit in but I am different from the rest
I want to be bigger but cannot help myself
I want to be beautiful but uglyness shines its evil light
I want to eat but just a little is too much
I want to be normal but I cannot help myself
I want to stop being sick but I can’t stop myself
How could anyone ever love my body when I can’t even love myself?
To look upon the mirror is to cry a river of tears at the person staring back
How can you understand when I am perplexed and confused?
How can you judge when I have been beat and abused?
I am tired from it all, I just want to be alone
The only person I trust is the person I hate

Enjoy your food
.
Never have I been so insulted by you
I prepared a meal which was beautiful
You were sat to receive my dish
You decided to take the piss
3 hours I slaved for that food
Your comments oh so lewd
What was it that you didn’t like?
Why did you have to snipe?
Well do you know what you can do?
Next time make your own food
Just one last thing do finish off
Splat, enjoy your food, I’m off!

The peace of the park
.
Oh I love the peace when we come to the park
I can hear the birds sing and lark
Watching the joggers as they pass on by
Reflecting on life, not asking why
I love the sun as it warms me up
Not too hot, its just enough
As I watch the water rippling in the sun
Kids feeding ducks, having fun
I stop to breathe and forget it all
Before I leave heaven and I fall

What’s the point?
I sometimes wonder what’s the point
As I do the same each day
Depression seeping deep within
It makes my mind decay
As I search for a way to change my life
And escape from this hell
That jolting felling deep within
Will it never quell?

This clouded feeling
I can’t put my finger on it
Why I feel so down
This clouded feeling
That’s hanging around
I feel almost sick
But I don’t know why
I haven’t even got
Any appetite
I can’t control my emotions
So angry in my heart
Can’t pull it from me
I don’t know which path
How can I escape
From this torturous hell?
Is there an escape?
Is it a closed shell?
Its vice like grip
Constantly on me
Oh how I wish
I could be free
To breathe deeply
Clean virgin air
To stop suffocating
To fight the despair
Does happiness exist?
Will I feel it one day?
Or am I in hell hotel
Destined to stay?
