Premium MemberNothing To Say

And if you have nothing to say
Except what is strictly necessary
What are the points that you may
Be fed up with, so measurelessly  
It could be the war you are taxed with 
Or the regular fiddling with apps
Are you not a robot, they ask you
You probably are, under wraps
Or maybe it could be the weather
Repeatable orange alerts  
A wind that’s too warm for the leather
But cold for the cotton t-shirts
And everything looks plainly evident
Spins like the merry-go-round
You know fairly well what’s been said
You don’t need to echo that sound
May speakers apply to the air
In tireless wondering why
A few withered leaves over there
Drop down the expected reply..


Premium MemberDeaths Deal



Death is not the enemy you believe 
And death isn't what you should fear
Death we all shall truly desire 
For only death makes troubles disappear

Death is not some fancy illusion
Full of smoke and mirrors to deceive
Death offers to relieve your troubles
And will accept all it can receive

With death there's no worries or regrets
Any wrong or mistakes they slip away
They all vanish and bother you no more
There's hardly any cost you must pay

What death offers no one can match
Nothing else can do what death can do 
You want peacefulness to fill your life
Isn't the cemetary peaceful to you

Premium MemberPANIC

Panic
Doesn’t compute
Calculates worry
Uncertain doubt
Courage not
Questionable aftermath
The worry continues to go on
Don’t know for how long?
Unable to figure the details out
Worry, worry and worry
Situation in the circumstance
Standing in the center of no chance
Notice in advance
Uncertain anticipation
Through the struggles feeling like a storm
Thinking don’t be alarmed
Panic mode

Premium MemberBeautiful Depression

What is it that is wrong with me 
If you would allow I'll easily explain 
There's a monster named depression 
That is living inside my brain 

A fierce warrior you can't defeat
Against happiness it'll always win
Happiness would be better off
To leave and never return again 

Eliminating it's enemy emotions 
My depression the last to remain 
So that it can build a great kingdom 
And live peacefully inside my brain 

My depression I promise is loyal
It has sworn to never go away 
At last my beautiful depression 
I believe has come home to stay in

Premium MemberDeepest Depression

All I do is either sleep or I cry
And at times I cry in my sleep 
I'm no stranger to depression 
But I've never been in so deep 

I acquired this constant pressure 
As if depression is squeezing my heart 
I'm not sure if I'll survive this divorce 
It's torn my life and my heart apart 

My body and emotions are almost numb
The only thing I can feel is this damn pain
I wake up and I'm already exhausted 
This depression is nothing but a bane

It's stolen my hopes and future dreams 
And it's is holding me against my will
Something has to alter my direction 
My life is next on its list to steal


Premium MemberMisery Of Depression

With each day that passes 
My misery continues to grow 
Once I could hide it so well 
Now it's beginning to show 

No longer will it be hidden 
Behind some crafty disguise 
Or simply be dismissed 
With my deceitful lies 

It's hard for me to accept 
That I'm losing my control 
I'm forced to watch and disgust 
As my misery kills my soul 

I feel I've been depleted 
I have nothing left to give 
My misery has gained all control 
Over this meaningless life I live

Premium MemberWhite On White

So we’re punished and estranged 
Would it make us better?
So how sweet was the revenge
Does it really matter?
It’s like noting white on white
Maybe green on green
When you come, I dim the light
Blinded by the screen
As the evening soars my eyes  
I calm down a bit
Thinking it’s the useful lies
Naked truth can’t fit
It’s like permanent repair
Of a thing unfixable 
It’s unfair, but we didn’t care
Everything is mixable
So we turn out quite the same
As we were last night
Only now there is no frame
But just white on white.

Premium MemberKaleidoscope of Pain

Lost in a blizzard's cold snowdrifts,
please know, I appreciate your gifts - 
a plethora of desolation, 
loneliness and isolation, 
a pincushion of every harm,  
empty hands and empty arms,
a surplus and a plenitude
of everlasting solitude,
a kaleidoscope of emotional pain
torrents of rainbowless rain,
a carousel of cosmic confusion,
a cornucopia of disillusion.  
I'll raise a glass, and just say, "Cheers!"
and return a reservoir of tears.

Premium MemberThe Violin Player's Introduction

Violin player's eyes are starry
beauty like the glitter,
The notes take to dark-ness
strong bones don't wither
deep sea's treasures
blue and color green
inside a pirate's eyes.
Don't confuse the seasons
to chills of the Winter-time,
undecided or believe lies
Not the warmth of Bret hen.

To forgive is to take
away your sole lake
and the ruminations
of this abandoned town,
This too is a sin of pride
and vulnerability
red toxins into splashes,
echoes are deathly sounds

Cracked smashed windows
like the dour of pavements
but the detail is amazing,
unlike a city of simplicity
drones in for a coffee,
but lets shrug off the rest.....

He picks up the instrument....

Premium MemberDown At The Quayside

Down at the quayside
Heading to a pier
Surges of ongoing tide
Bob the fishing gear
Seagulls flying low, descend
On the rails of pier
This road has come to an end
So the end came near
What about the next step
Is the font too small?
Or a bit too wide the gap
To forget it all?
Don’t know how to answer that
So I better stay
Wait until the light turns flat
Shadowing my way.

Premium MemberMistakes Aftermath

There's a reason you chose to hide
Behind the mask that you still wear 
You hide all your pain and regret 
These things you refuse to share

You feel it's unjust for you 
To suffer this life that you live 
For a day most would call normal 
There's nothing you wouldn't give 

Mistakes from a time long ago 
Have twisted the hands of your fate
Now every day is suffering
In this life you try orchestrate 

You were never shown mercy 
Or graced with a second chance 
Fate chose to ignore you 
Never giving you another glance 

Your own life now forces you 
To carry a crippling weight 
A depression that's so deep 
It's impossible to medicate

It could all be over for good
Repeats the voices in your head 
They promise nothing can hurt 
Once you have become dead

Premium MemberHaunted By Your Love

This house I'm living in it's haunted 
Not by ghost but by your memory
Each room holds a special moment 
That was shared between you and me

Any room in the house I dare to enter 
Holds me captive in sadness not fear 
Each moment we shared is on display
Making me feel as though you're here 

As the memories draw closer to an end 
The images of us together begin to fade 
The pain of you leaving becomes renewed 
All because my heart has been betrayed 

The happiness that's felt is short lived 
Erased by this life that's gone to hell
Tormented by deceit and your memory 
In this haunted house that i dwell

Premium MemberAt the Gate

Once, you loved and welcomed me. 
Now, I'm at the gate. 

Once, there was peace and love.
Now, only vitriol and hate.

Once, there was democracy. 
Now, we tempt the hands of fate.

Once, there was infinity, 
Now, a sideways eight.

Once, there were hopes and prayers. 
Now, it is too late.

Once, there was eternity. 
Now, a headstone and a date.

Premium MemberAbandoned Home

This garden’s neglected, the grass grew too tall 
The bushes and plants look half-dried 
Cracked slabs lay uneven, the dog’s water bowl
Is covered with leaves and dead flies 
Front door’s off the latch, windows wide open
No photos in frames on the mantelpiece
A phone on the table must’ve been broken
Unlikely it held fingerprints
Wormwood and ivy have grown way too large
Almost conceal the brick walls
Everything seems like completely discharged
Unavailable to any calls 
Was it the other day I saw you there? 
When was the last time we met? 
Tomorrow can’t come, cause it’s busy somewhere
No time for tea can be set.

Premium MemberDEATH

Death, the dutiful dismal doorman waits,
Depressed, opening each eternal gate,
Kneeling right, glowering at Heaven’s Gate;
Bowing left, grinning wide at Devil’s Gate.
With all souls passed through their eternal gate
Death drags Hades, gate left and immolates.
