Loosing my mind
I used to hear words of pain I’m used to hearing words of defeat In this traumatic drama of my life I realise they no longer need a body The spill from lips wide open Stained on my mind From previous beatings They easily flow out of my own thoughts now Barricading me in less self-worth Spitting toxins, I now imagine in my...

We are never loosing family members
,,What do you mean?", I say while running after Josh, my uncle. He likes to drink wine so it's not unusual for him to be like that. Don't worry, I am 27, I can handle that. I broke up with my girlfriend two months before and he wanted to show me something on the newspaper, but ended up...

Premium Member Winning and Loosing
To win, a thrill that takes to flight, Inspired by the conquered fight. But even victors know this truth, There's never triumph without ruth. For those who give up on the quest, Deny the chance to stand the test. Lose, a sting that bites the soul, Discouraged by the missed goal. But let not sorrow cloud the...

Somebody I used to know
Today I was asked to think of something nice to do for myself everyday But I couldn't, I froze I couldn't think of a single nice thing I'd want to do I literally had nothing to say, My suggestions covered good deeds for others but they didn't consider me, Then it dawned on me That I don't...

Loosing My Mind
I may not be old, but weary I am, my body beat down, ever since I was young. But still I continued, grabbed for my dream, to heal others' torment, to soothe peoples' wounds. Yet life took a turn, disease stole my brain, no meds could reverse it, I feel I'm to blame. If I had fought harder, and got someone to listen, then maybe it wouldn't be, such a...

Everything Happens For a Reason
Hand in hand, under the trench. Always sitting, on the same bench. Class one - till twelfth, he was all mine. Both of us always on cloud nine! Mornings in the school and evenings under the sky. Aww! we were such cutie pies. Cute and naughty, hot and sporty, Sleek and tall, perfect bratty. He was way too chirpy. Every game, every competition we...

Premium Member Loosing All Senses
He can normally smell a rat or two especially as They rattle their cage when leaving the ship Tastes defeat when they have won another day Cuddles their clever escape of untouchable glory The scent at the food bank tickles his hungry senses Christmas choirs herald another day on the street Before he digs in the trash for flavours of injustice Compressed...

Loosing Lou Sing the Damn Rumors
Loosing (lou sing) the damn rumors... Torpedo style full speed ahead keeping me in suspense, what salacious gossip gets browned, buttered, rolled down the alley and bred into unsavory tidbits, these souffled ears dread to hear hard boiled morsels poached, scrambled, whipped donning barren falsehoods zeitgeist spouting dunderhead trumpeting hex pence heave signature border wall inside this weatherbeaten egghead sponge bobbing squarepants, whereby passers by some with fathead steer clear avoiding your...

Slowly Slowly
Slowly, slowly, Like melting snow, Our humanity, Drips away, Fingers tapping, Screens flashing, Lives spent, Chasing Paper castles, And hollow hearts, And for our Attention, We claim our prize; Gifts of Short lived Dopamine, Pieces of silver, Exchanged, For our precious mind. This digital pilgrimage, To an empty space, Where no hands, Hold warm flesh and blood, Or wide eyes, Connect in true embrace, Lost Years, Where only the fleeting matters , Our Truths long forgotten, Filed away, Buried for some...
