I’m Fed Up with Being Nothing
I watch the wars that burn around us all and see nothing,
Behind cold walls of hate, the silence swallows up nothing.
The pain cries out in every corner, yet we hold nothing,
Our hands remain unmoving, frozen in cruel nothing.
We’ve lost our faces in a mirror cracked by endless nothing,
Forgotten how to reach for others—we give only

Fed up
Fed up of giving everything I have and nothing in return. Feeling like affection is something I need to earn.
I crave to cuddled to have his arms round me tight, a kiss on the forehead, a love letter, that’s how it’s supposed to be right ?
All these thoughts run through my head, sleeping alone

Fed Up
I GAVE EVERYTHING I POUR MY HEART AND SOUL INTO PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T DESERVE IT.
I AM ANGRY I AM HURT I AM DISGUSTED I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHAT TO SAY.
I'VE GIVEN MY ALL AND I CAN'T TO DO IT NO MORE I CAN'T CARRY THE LOAD ANYMORE.
I CAN'T TAKE THE HARSHNESS OF

Fed Up With Her Marriage
Their marriage has to be dissolved,
Nothing again to be resolved,
Twelve good years and problems unsolved,
Their priest had her of guilt absolved,
Mark who had thrice their problem solved,
Three is Lord God's Holy Number,
No case against her being sombre,
She'll stay right through the Judge's Gavel,
And then to Great Britain travel...

A Gloomy Weather
The rainy season arrives
Today we have a gloomy and surly weather
It makes me feel heavy and depressed
Spaced out
Fed up
Finally retreat to a confinement
To avoid being wet out
The bustle and hustle of the outside
Being blocked out
An inner self is left
I feel somewhat alone and lost
Am l really alone
Of course not
I then

Fed Up
I'm tired of
the preening
the posturing
the posing
I'm fed up with
the pretending
the petulance
the pessimism
Time for a new mirror

You'Ll Not Pull Me Under
This isn't new, it's just the rain
the same old storm,
the same terrain
Same torrents drown me out again
but you'll not pull me under, just yet
You twist my trusting weathervane,
'til cold feels warm
and you seem sane,
then hit me with a hurricane
but tonight, I'm not going to get wet

Bored Out of My Brain
Bored Out Of My Brain!
I’m home, learning how to paint
Trying not to faint
Learning the piano and
Painting like Picasso
Isn’t really that hard
What was all the fuss about?
Dreaming of meeting family
Tired of being alone with me
Wanting all this crap to end
Though I only have one friend
Doing things they say I can’t
Wish I could paint like
Rembrandt
Running out

Fed Up
Today is an ordinary day, painfully
Pointless and average. Living to pay a
System, that hates people like me, like a log cutter a tree, chopping away. Not leaving me be. I know people. Designers looking for the flaws and faults, waiting
To judge. They love it, and do it with grudge.
Today is yet another

Fed Up
Relax and calm down she said. How can I with all these emotions running through my head?
See that's the problem. You never actually listen to what I have to say. That's because everything you say, causes me much dismay.
You just don't get it. That's the problem I have with you. Well if that's your main

Fed Up
I can't take it anymore
it's dead and gone and it's for sure
I'm done with it, this is the end
there's nothing left here to pretend
please take it away from me
because I don't really agree
The truth is I'm fed up with it
so leave it all and let me sleep

Rise
Wind in time
Rapes the emotions, vacillating within
Moments shot down in flames
What can I do with these shattered pieces?
I've lost my voice, beneath their screams
I've been silent
Bending backwards till I've been broken,
I watch their love go up in smoke
Help me rise, stoke the flames that burn
When I pray for release
Will I rise from the ashes?

Was Union told the Federate zeroes
on my paycheck is retroactive
Ain’t got no money to buy food tho’ ...

Yet we all must remain patriotic
To work everyday
Without any pay
Makes my landlord and grocer neurotic!
