Everyone is welcome
I feel so alone
Here, sat here
Nothing but my beer
In my hands
Thinking about ..
Nothing
Nothingness,
Pointlessness
Emptyness
Swig my beer
Swallow it down
Wallowing
Self pitied mess
Same clothes
Odour rising
Bottle caps filling floor
Smash bottle
Into tv
Raged
Glass splitting
Beer spilling
Tears
Flowing
Down my cheeks
To the floor
I am alone
I can’t take it
Anymore…

That mark that’s there, been bugging me
That little grubby mark, shape of a penny
I don’t clean me, hate cleaning things
I’m too lazy to even take out the bins
I’m doing something, tomorrow, maybe
Ain’t doing cleaning, me I’m free
It’s getting to me, that bloody mark
I’m gonna do it this cleaning lark
Block it out, life pushed away
Shit happens, clean it today.
Get the cream out and the brush
That’s not so hard now, what’s the fuss
Pissed off with this, pissed off with that
Scrub that wall bitch, whiten that black
World getting you down, all against you
Music full blast, listen to Muse
Plug in baby, psycho, madness
Scrub it away, all that sadness
Prodigy now, twisted firestarter
Bleeding ears, no need to barter
Throwing things away to drum and bass
Looking in mirror, wanna punch that face
Feeling down, no, adrenaline pumping
Screaming out mentally, heart thumping
I’m gonna clean you, clean you now
Scrub you off this planet, POW!

Proud to have you here
Life support keeps you alive
Hatred for this choice
Alive, just, with all your tubes.
Deciding what’s best for who?

Taken from Rhyming poetry to change your day by Philip Lister
I am going to write a story
And you’ll fall in love with me
You will be cradled in my arms
And we will be happy
We cannot know what life brings
Or control each suprise
If I already knew the ending
I would still look into your eyes
The roses wilting
Over the side of the glass
Sensed they had given up
Could not forever last
My sickening feeling
Inside of me
Sadness seeping out
Wanting to be freed
They look so tired
As if it’s the end
Flowers to one side
No way to mend
As I gaze down
Studying the floor
A tear leaves my eye
I can’t do this anymore
Grabbing the stalks
Piercing my hand
Throwing with force
Don’t care where they land
As I collapse to the floor
Feeling sorry for myself
I have given up
I need to find help
Why can I not touch you?
Where did it all go wrong?
Why does nothing happen?
What is this song?
The days go by
The months rack up
Have I become invisible?
What is this love?
If I do not exist
Then why do we do this?
Put a stop to this torment
With a poison kiss
Forever searched love
In all its perfection
Maybe I will find it
In my resurrection
I admire your beauty
As I caress you
Not wanting you to go
So I hold you
As you fidget to be free
I plead with you
But you don’t want me
Do you?
We have been confined
Unable to help
Searching for you
As you have no-one else
Finally I know
You have been taken ill
But your whereabouts unknown
A very bitter pill
I know now
That it will not be too long
I will find answers
And what has been going on
You will know you have someone
That cares about you
Because in this life
We do what we have to do
Your glistening tear
Running down your cheek
Your silent words
You would never speak
I would wonder why
What i had done
To start this reaction
How it begun
To say I’m sorry
To make it stop
To ask forgiveness
To turn back the clock
But now you sob
Your tears overflow
You point to the door
It’s time to go
.
Can you see my smile?
Can you read my eyes?
Am I a book to you?
Will you question why?
Am I happy?
Is it bliss?
Am I ecstatic?
Or really pissed?
Maybe I am crying
Hurting deep inside
So lost in my life
I can only despise
Maybe I just don’t care
Given up on all
Nothing in this life
Keeps me enthralled
Maybe this smile is sincere
You’re reading me too much
Am I content as can be?
Am I in love?
