Sev Smith Poem
Crying in the rain
Letting go of all this pain
I do not want to see again
How we came crashing to an end
I do not want to see why
We were forced to say good bye
I have watched it and I have lived it
Been crushed by such a low hit
I’m crying in this rain
My eyes red with raw pain
The tears are flowing
Just not going
And I’m left all alone
I beg for your forgiveness
I scream with all I’ve got
But when it comes together
What I have is not a lot
I walk alone down this street
Strangers’ eyes are following
But I just keep on walking
Head down and never slowing
I pace these roads and hope to find
Something that means anything
Something that’s familiar
Until then I’m just left hanging
I’m still crying in this town
The rain pours on my face
Trying to forget you
But failing at first base
I cannot help but remember
Your face and how you smile
Just keep walking strong
It might be easier after a mile
Your eyes and how they glowed
Are burnt into my mind
I close my eyes and see them
Staring back right into mine
I’m crying on this night
And will on many more to come
I’ll stumble forward without you
Looking for my fortune
I cannot ever forget
The feeling that I had
When you put your arms around me
And chased away all the sad
I will try but fail to forget
How you loved me through thick and thin
I will wander through my life
But always still in love with him
He was my world and I can’t forget
He makes me who I am
Although he’s gone and lost from sight
I will not become a sham
I will always try to forget
How brilliant he made me feel
Made the world seem wonderful
And that maybe this world was real
The pain I feel when I remember him
Is cutting deeper still
He’s left a gaping hole in me
One that no one could ever fill
I try and try and fail again
My baby is still gone
I’m crying in this rain again
Cold and all alone

Sev Smith Poem
Darkness is like my mirror
Shattered like blackened glass
Reflecting broken bits of me
As hours, days and years go past
Darkness is like a fiery mess
Endless, cold and without mercy
Coals and ashes, shriveled up
Tomorrow remains unseen
Light seems to burn my world
From the dullest of all dull candles
Like touching a golden ember
Its splendour you cannot handle
Darkness is a force of life
The only one I’ve ever known
I’m scared of what I do not know
And what I do not understand
Darkness is like an old friend
Lingering, forever remembered
The darkest of all my days were bright
From you my light emerged
I cannot think of a time well spent
That didn’t include you in it
A world so unforgiving
One in which we did not fit
Darkness is a battle
Not to be won but only to lose
You fight for everything you love
And get defeated at the time they choose
Darkness is a house
Standing alone and desolate
No one wants to live there
Doing so fills them with hate
Blackness is a colour
A shade of the darkest emotion
The feeling you get when you feel empty
Just going through the motions
Black is endless and cold
And all I’ve ever known
But I cannot tear myself away
For fond of it I’ve grown

Sev Smith Poem
Her skin white, drained
Her expression dark, pained
Eyes staring out, completely blank
Hair lifeless, dank
Her fingers curled, still
In her mouth, a cyanide pill

Sev Smith Poem
The light, it stuns
you, causes illusion
Eradicates darkness
causing pollution
Breathe in the air,
fresh in abundance
In this wild light,
let go and just
dance
Let go of your
sorrow, pity and
pain
Skip fly and wander
sheltered from rain
Nothing can touch
you, keep up your
pace
One two three one
two three don't lose
your place
Step in time with
song in your heart
Lose all thoughts
that keep saying
"you can't"
Let it go free, push
it away
Kick off the binds,
run off astray
You're free in your
heart, just keep out
of line
Don't listen to the
darkness and all
will be fine
Dance forever
onward, forever
young
Let your heart sing
till its song is
sung
One two three one
two three, take up
the lead
Keep in the light
from darkness
concede
Let the rain in, and
dance all night long
Sing in the rain,
your own private
song
Freedom is this, not
bound and
constricted
Go anywhere you
want, no where's
restricted
Wander and search,
keep up your beat
Keep getting faster,
don't trip over your
feet
Breathe in and then
out, let your mind
slip
Care about nothing,
feel your heart flip
Promise me this,
you'll stay here
forever
Free and with me,
what could be
better?

Sev Smith Poem
Your mask is impossible to crack
A most confusing riddle
I find myself lost again
Stuck smack in the middle
Your mask is hiding you away
Misleading me and so on
I find myself at your mercy again
Feeling I've become undone
Your mask is cruel, unforgiving
Troubling my dreams at night
I find myself so crippled again
Lost this endless fight
Your mask is an illusion
I wish I knew the real you
I find myself at a major loss
When you mislead me like you do
Your mask is something horrid that
I'd love to see the end of
I find myself at a disadvantage
Because with you I am in love

Sev Smith Poem
The days linger on and drive me crazy
Pull this trigger? Consider, maybe
Think things through, don't go rushing
I'm drowning now, turning and thrashing
Breathe sweet air back into my lungs
On the wall, your photo's hung
As time drifts slowly, I think again
Should my life, really come to an end
I think and I plan, confuse myself
Just a lonely soul searching for help
The sun it sets, then rises once more
Lose consciousness and crash to the floor
I wake in pain, agony it lurches
Usettled dreams of burning churches
But this is my choice, look through my drawers
Find the letter and this signature is yours
Then find my lighter, ignite a flame
Numb to know it's not the same
On the wall, your photo's hung
Reload again, bullets in my gun
Raise once more, but think things through
My last thought, it will be you.

Sev Smith Poem
Fingers entwined, mingled and clenched
Don’t let me go alone;
Don’t re-break these broken bones;
The rain still pours; our souls completely drenched.
Hold me closer as I fight for breath
Struggling to hold on;
I want this to be gone;
Crushing weights; suffocating far beneath.
Timed out, expired and over due
They want us out;
To wander about;
It seems they are not done with you.
I feel your breath running down my neck
I savour out sweet moment;
Our hearts beat far from dormant;
Not knowing what comes next.
Quivering lips are locked, hands cling tighter still
Our bodies embraced;
As I read your face;
Nerves are screaming, skin tingling with a burning thrill.
Reddening cheeks light up and blush
Your freckles fading in the rush
Skin still flaring with every touch
A feeling like this, is just too much.

Sev Smith Poem
Drop to my knees and I’m begging
Come back, don’t leave me
Do one more thing and I’ll disappear
I swear it, just wait and see
Just put your hands around my throat
Squeeze it as hard as you can
Don’t let go, don’t stop it
Clench until I am damned
I’ll close my eyes in silence,
See nothing no more
I’ll gasp one more time
This is what I’m asking for
Please give me this
And I’ll walk away
You’ll never see me again
Not after this day

Sev Smith Poem
Bite my tongue
Choke on my words
Spell out the letters
That must remain unheard
No one should hear the desperate screams
Coming from deep within me
No one should see my soul as it burns
Without peace I'll always be
No one listens to the pleas I cry
They ignore me every day
No one sees the blood I shed
And I wouldn't have it any other way
I don't want them to know I suffer
And die inside when I'm alone
I'd rather pretend I'm fine for their sake
But I don't care when I'm at home
I am depressed and with good reason
You shouldn't judge me for this
But I'll stick out life till its end
And die to reach infinite bliss

Sev Smith Poem
Its not like I asked for this
It’s something else besides
But knowing there is no way out
Just tears me up inside.
It’s like suffocation
Like drowning on dry land
Impossible, not really
On my knees for I cannot stand
You make promises and break them all
Crush them into dust
Moving on isn’t helping
To just leave things in the past
Burnt down to ashes, black and cold
Another day goes by
Another day in which I mean naught
Left on low, not on high
I do not beg for this torture
To be left out on my own
But you make it seem like that’s what I want
And again I’m left alone
One day you’ll pay the price for this
And regret it everyday
You deserved it for what you’ve done
And that’s all I have to say
You make is sound like it hurts you more
That you’re the victim here
Truth is you stand by and watch me cry
And seem not to even care
