Now give me hope when books begin
to bite, when school begins to strangle me.
My worries wear on me and Satan's sin
does weave and warp Hosannah's peace.
Just put me on hold while I do this,
Turn me off,
I’ll be back when I’m done,
My reactions are no longer mine,
And if I pass
Don’t worry,
Just think thoughts sublime.
Form:
The eerie denizens of night
Have made me their own
Blended me into some
Shadowy creature
Who begs for rest and light
Often destroyed
By wishing to be put
Back together
since you left my wet embrace
you have not been tamed
you left me needing a want I chased
now I feel ashamed...
I thought the use of me would clue you in and stay with me reframed
I wish I wasnt here to hear your voice
It shouts through my brain
That sometimes I wanna go insane
I dont like it when you put me down
Or when you always make me cry
I'm through with you
I dont your s**t anymore
Form:
The silence grips me without you.
Without your laugh ringing.
The silence grips me without you.
Without your song singing.
The silence grips me without you.
Without your voice speaking.
The silence grips me without you.
Tell me why you put a hole in my heart
Tell me why I feel so much of this pain
No matter what I do, No matter what I try
I only seem to fill myself with lie after lie
They burn the edges, ripping me open
You make me want to die.
Form:
The train whistle blew.
It headed for my front door.
I was terrified.
It chased me from room to room.
I hid; it gave up and left.

Recounted and written for the "Tanka me a Dream" contest.
My brain screams broken glass
program edits my thoughts
faster than I type
blood boils
burning holes in my heart
your up draft
put me in a tailspin
and this tree house
deserted jungle island
lifestyle
makes me stir crazy with every passing second
blindfolded
the world beyond sight
alone in the dark
hands tied behind my back
gag in my mouth
no way to scream
nor can I fight
legs tied to the chair
motionless
let me out
let me free
someone help
screams muffled
no one to hear
no sound escapes
despair
It surrounds me,
Conquers my soul.
I try to do what's right,
It tells me my feelings are wrong.
I walk a tightrope,
Its hand shakes me off.
Nothing can control it.
It rules my every move.
It stomps me down,
I fight to defeat it.
There is no escape,
The power of guilt.
They won't give me the Last Rites
because all the Priests are in Prison.....
A stranger might say
they love me......
A little girl might even wave to me while
she rides in a passing car......
YET......I can be charming for 5 minutes
then
I'm
Lost
Raise Your Flag
You’ve got me now
You sucked me in
Take a bow
Sew your oats
Leave none to spare
Then resume your role
Over there
Twenty’s your number
That’s your plan
But fifteen more
Is where I am
Raise Your Flag
You’ve had your fun
But I won’t be
The conquered one
You find me
Cold
Bitter
I am not yours to touch
To have
To hold
No softness to envelop you
No love to comfort you
Only emptiness
Ambivalence to greet you
Reach for me and I will prick you
Leave you
Cold
Lost
Hard around the heart
I am not yours to hold
You will not reach me
Angst traps me within myself
Broken at the sign of help
Used up and died away
Suicide touching fate
Entering my final day
Death has found my peaceful way
Binding me straight to hell
Yet darkness can be so stale
Years beaten by the likes of you
Other memories shall never do
Until we meet again,
What would you say if I told you ‘Death is a blessing’,
Would you worry for me or let me live on?
What could you do if I said ‘Life is a curse’,
Could you relieve me of my burden?
What should I do if loneliness is where I live,
Should I put it up for sale and move on?
Watch this space for vacancies!
Darkness is a place I love,
For no one can see you there.
It covers you with a blanket,
For you and your despair.
Sunlight shows all your faults and fears,
Leaves you in the open with nothing but tears.
So give me back my darkness,
And give me back my pain,
Keep me from the sunlight,
Never show me again.
Form:
Precious pain
empty and cold but it keeps me alive
I gave it my soul so that I could survive
Keeping me safe in these chains
Precious pain
No righteous energy left for tears,
You've left me dry after all these years
Precious pain, give me something new
I cannnot be
I cannot be this in love with you.
i listen to music
singing along with its tune
brother starts to be mean
he causes me to cry and scream
the words "shut up!!"
mother doesn't make me do that.
he must hate me,
never did he used to make me cry
nor did he enjoy it to see me cry
he acts like a big brother
but only i know....
it's a stupid lie.
What is this?
This feeling?
Screaming at me for freedom,
Trying to break free of its confines.
Persuading me for its chance to roam ,
And it worked,
I let it in,
Its Flowing through me now,
Its gotten hold of my emotions.
It's furious,
Tempting me to let it out,
Let the anger take complete control,
And so…....
Watch out,
Its free…
Form:
venom running through my veins
silently screaming
scratching deeply at flesh
pulling hair out by handfuls
ripping
tearing
scratching
get it out
it's in my mind
take it out
leave me alone
please
just leave me alone
I hate this
silence choking me
words pounding in my mind
release
please give me release
it hurts
just get it out
please
alone in a room
thoughts running through my mind
telling me lies
causing problems
making me scream
get them out
I don't want them
make them disappear
they cause misery
no more
please
it hurts too much
help me
get me out of this hell
thoughts causing my torment
please
make it all end
reassure me
tell me it will never become that
please
pain, a regular visitor in my heart
my world is always torn apart
maybe the powers that be
are really mad at me
no matter where I go
no matter what I do
or even how hard I try
good times seem to pass me by
people tell me I am going to hell
they don't know I'm acquainted well
fear and pain consume me now
to end this pain....I don't know how
falling back
water envelopes me
i am surrounded by nothing
nothing but the quiet of the
soundlessness of the confined water space
it surrounds me like a coffin
burying me in a stinging grave
blackness enters my mind
cold enters me, and starts to grind;
at my bones, inch by inch
away from the pain
i cannot flinch
it takes me over
inch by inch
Hope and doubt
dancing around
spiraling together
thrown at me
one raising me up
the other dropping me suddenly
how can I continue this
living each day unsure
emotions running wild
people throwing words
opinions
their own doubts
never leaving me be
wanting to fix my mistakes
even before they're made
my life a puzzle
half the pieces are missing
stolen
