Choked Bloom
The girl weeps a bruised and bitter rain,
A childhood choked, a garden grown in pain.
My laughter, brittle glass, it cracks and breaks,
Beneath the weight of unforgiving stakes.
They built a fortress, walls of rigid stone,
And left my heart a barren, windswept zone.
No lover's hand to soothe, no gentle gaze,
Just scornful whispers in a hateful maze.
Each hallway

CHOKED
We were partying
Drinking and smoking
Laughing to the jokes, a friend was telling
While some were dancing
Suddenly he choked, as he was laughing
He started coughing heavily.
Another was laughing
Thinking it's a joke
As he drag the smoke, he also choked
Now we have two victims, I hope they break the yoke
They keep on

Choked in Shadows
Stop! I can't breathe, you have me caught,
Darth Vader's grasp, a battle I never sought.
My lungs are squeezing, a vice made of despair,
Suffocating whispers in a toxic air.
Why should I suffer, why should I choke,
Paying for the habits of your smoky cloak?
Each breath a struggle, each moment a crime,
I glimpse my tomb long before my

Choked By Guilt
She opened her eyes again
Hoping to see it sane
Well, it was anything but that
She gloomed as it's scarring words spat
Every time, she choked to speak
Not this time as she wanted to wreak
The creature was aghast
Oh! It wailed and wailed and wailed as she gasped
She choked her voice forever
As she drowned in her guilt further
Oh, the

Choked
Frederick frog had lost his croak
No croak was severe for a froggy bloke
He tried very hard every day
But Frederick's croak stayed away
Because Frederick had a frog in his throat.

Choked
One step into the ocean, two hands choking the air out of me
My eyes blur and go out of focus, my tears giving up on me.
Gasping for air, the hands grab me tighter
Reminding me all over again, that I’m no fighter.
I try push away, I try to escape
But the water pushes me down,
I think

Chain Choked
Faltered faith pedals roughly on roads without a map
Towards year's end, staggered by reality
Trust I tore from you lays shredded in spokes' overlap
Hurtful words snapped

Choked Desolation
The smoke billowed behind her
She had just put out the flame
Her world was crumbling around her
She turned inwards in vain.
Despair washed over her
The truth now hit her hard
The pain was to much to bear
She hid now behind her shame.
Love lasts when a spark turns into a flame
Each memory now within a frame
It’s over now and

Shell Shocked and Choked
‘Turn swords into ploughshares and nightmares to dreams’
I have not one plough and no shares in the market
Insomnia has taken over my nights the rest is illusion
Ambitions are exhausted and hope has no yearning
Freedom dangles on the rope of

Sonnet 10 'Love Cannot Live While Choked By Expectations' Revised 3 19
Love cannot live while choked by expectations!
The Weeds of Wanting strangle it with Fear!
'WANT!' starts when we mistake Love for Sensations!
And IGNORANCE, when feelings we hold dear…
Am I to say then, friend, that I know better?
Because I have known Love a while and seen
The fruits of being Loved more than the letter?
I speak none ill,

Choked On a Jelly Bean
Once choked on a jelly bean, nearly met my maker
Thankfully it popped out while calling the undertaker
Postponing my departure
It wasn't in the charter
So I'll continue my notoriety as a PS troublemaker

Choked Up
The taste of blood lingers in my mouth
as I bite my tongue to hold back the words.
They claw and scratched in my throat,
needing to be heard.
I’ve learn’t my lesson as the last time I let them free
the one who got burnt was me.
Holding my breath, skin turning blue,
oh what more can I do.
Eyes screwed shut
