New work

Beep beep

Beep beep

Where am I?

Is this hell?

Beep beep

What is this?

This shell?

Beep beep

What’s going on?

Why can’t I speak?

Beep beep

Let me out of here

Why am I so weak?

Beep beep

Why can I hear voices?

But I can’t open my eyes?

Beep beep

Why am I trapped here?

Why do I hear goodbye?

Beep beep

I can hear crying

Faintly, as if in space

Beep beep

What is this torture?

What is this place?

Beep beep

Why can I not hear them?

Where did they go?

……….

1. Searching for you

Magical stardust, I’m in love with you

The stars are beautiful tonight

I’m hoping to always see this light

So beautiful, glistening in the sky

I gaze on watching, as I lie

Wishing that it would never end

That the darkness would never descend

A perfect view, panoramic all around

All is quiet, not even a sound

This beautiful moment, cherished in the dark

Forever in my mind, a permanent mark

I will never forget this amazing view

Magical stardust, I’m in love with you

New work

Fuck the haters

Fuck the haters

You toxic waste of space

Why the hell are you here?

In my sacred place

.

Did you need to comment

To say I needed help

Are you really concerned?

For my mental health

.

If you got nothing nice to say

Don’t say anything at all

Stop getting your jolly

At making me feel small

.

No one needs your opinion

If you’re using a knife

Your words cut deeply

You could even take a life

.

I hope you realise

The hurt that you caused

When you took your two minutes

And shit on my wall

.

Probably not

You pathetic piece of shit

Stop bullying people

And button your lip

.

1. Searching for you

Should we escape?

We certainly are not the best

When talking of our hurts

We always do just what we do

And everything gets worse

.

We row and row and never stop

Until we are blue in the face

We never stop to think about

Giving each other some space

.

When we really need to discuss

We do all we can to evade

When things have gone on surely like this
Is it not time to escape?

.

New work

Cheeky flowers

As the sun starts to rise

The darkness falls

The cold disappears

And we’ll have a ball

.

We open up

And reveal ourselves

Ready to be taken

As if on the shelf

.

Feed on us

Suck us dry

Rub yourself

Don’t be shy

.

That orange glow

Feels so good

Irreplaceable

Nothing could

.

As it eventually fades

To say goodnight

We start to close

As we miss our light

.

Off to sleep

Until the next day

See you soon

We’ll be back out to play

New work

How to get out

I need to get away

From this abuse so bad

Taking its toll on me

Feeling so sad

.

He’s not violent with me

At least not physically

Although it’s still torture

The way he bullies

.

You just wouldn’t know

He’d never do it to your face

The mental abuse

I feel so disgraced

.

I wonder why he does it

Why he has to control

He enjoys his puppet

That he can mould

.

Whatever he wants

His every whim

I have to do it

Or else he is mean

.

It just never stops

Again and again

I wish it would

I feel such shame

.

How to get out

How to leave

I’m tired now

I just want peace
