New work

Morning blues

So they call it morning blues

And it’s viscious too

Invading your mind

Seeping into

All the cracks

The crevices fine

Through the veins

Intertwined

How it weeps

Into the blood

Causing dismay

Abysmal drug

Face lay bare

For all to see

Go on look

This misery

As it lasts so long

All through the day

Toying with the mind

It’s way to play

Delve far within

Peeling back the skin

Controlling emotions

It should be a sin

As the tears fall

Unable to hold back

Seeking answers

For all the cracks

Tear yourself down

Build the bricks back

Pull it together

Morning blues attack

New work

Sadness

What is this feeling

Why does it tiptoe into my mind every night

On the pillow cushioning my head

As the gravity pulls me in

Conscience becomes so apparent

As if to say I’m here

Like that one night stand you regret

When your bed is smaller

Pushing against you

Spooning you

No is not a response

You have to accept it

Sadness won’t leave you alone

Sadness is home

It is here to stay

New work

My beautiful dahlia

My beautiful dahlia

My beautiful dahlia

How I have longed to see you

Your vibrant red

Pulsing through

How I wait patiently

For you to bloom

As you take your sunlight

Through and through

Only a couple more days

As you make your final burst

Dahlia of springtime

To see the very first

New work

Be free

Please forgive me

My judgement

My actions

Darkness weighs me down

As my conscience suffocates my every breath

As the bird tries to escape

From where it was once happy

Pecking it’s limbs

Freedom given up

But at what cost

Self esteem worth nothing

As if water leaving the drain

The heavy rain showering the shame

As bliss never was

Tears of wanting

Acceptance

Love

Why search for something

That seems to be a myth

Maybe just an idea

In the ideal world

New work

Get on that swing

If you come down to the woods today

You are gonna die

If you get on that swing today

You’re gonna have a surprise

Us ghouls and ghosts

Are having a toast

Torture and torment

We love the most

So come with us

Don’t be a puss

And dare

To be afraid

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

New work

Computer says hello

Hey you

Tap tap tap

What ya doing

Incognito

Very smart

She won’t know

What’s your life like

Why do you sit there

What are you thinking about

What have you been doing today

Why do you sit so close

You should get your eyes checked

I wish I had your life

Come closer

Do you like what you see

Come on touch me

Come on

A little bit closer

That’s it

Oh your body is weird

Thank you

Enjoy your prison

Shut down
