Schizophrenic

Schizophrenic 

Darkness floods a broken mind 
Screaming out for calmness to find 
Sanity drowns in torrential tears 
Crowded in loneliness that no one hears 

With open mouth words haunt the air 
Medication needed ,but to dark to care. 
Menacing shadows breed violence assured 
As notice is taken of the voices heard 

Changes are rife  with character sway 
Always forgotten some would say. 
Two people present but one body and soul 
One taken over by madness so cold 

Unreasonable words drip rashly from tongue
Actions and gestures alarmingly strong 
Care arrives to calm and console 
Medication induced for rest and resolve 

Effectiveness swift as chaos retreats 
As darkness and anger take a back seat 
A tormented mind rests once  more 
For exactly how long we are never so sure.

A New Path

To wake beside a love long searched 
No longer a dream but reality unearthed 
Ecstasy of knowing I need not leave 
Holding you tight as in sync we breathe 

Sun beams pierce the shade of our nest 
As on to your shoulders my kiss comes to rest. 
In this moment true love floods my heart
Never again needing to ever be apart 

You stir and wake as your eyes open wide 
Remembering now you will rise by my side 
First mornings kiss pupates to passion 
Love making ensues in all kinds of fashion

Physical demands with lust of intent 
We lay and rest our bodies so spent 
And unlike before we now rest as one 
Sneaking around and hiding is done. 

Finally we both have found our true paths 
My beautiful girl and her naughty laugh 
Today the day that we exchange our hearts 
And cherish them dearly till death do us part.

Pitch Black Abuse

Pitch Black Abuse 


Childhoods are cherished by most it’s true. 
Others are scarred by darkness ensued. 
Darkened room with wall of ears. 
Illicit stories from over the years
Hand front of face it can’t be seen. 
Under darkness occurs a disturbing scene. 

Supposedly safe this institute 
still a child’s voice is  firmly on mute. 
Protection was lost to a child so young
Position too trust not bite your tongue. 
An enjoyable day is how it was said
voices heard from a strangers bed
Safety and comfort are so far away 
Forced to do what the abusers say

Broken in mind with trust issues too 
Adults need answers why me and not you. 
Barriers go up but some break down
Suicide, anxiety in darkness they drown. 
So what of these monsters in society today 
Twisting their evil to abuse again

But the abused are braver and silent no more
Helping authorities to knock evils door 
Justice no solace for horrors endured 
Broken no more cause finally heard

Seed

Seed 
Unshackled through force , gliding on air 
Liberation complete , nothing compares. 
My journey essential in hope of my kind 
A task not made easy by concrete and iron 

My fuel carry’s on with occasional fail 
Longevity unknown to fill my sail. 
Changes in course all to swift 
Suddenly slowed with gentle drift. 

Oh no oh please don’t drop me here 
Just tarmac and pavement I fill with fear 
Relief is had with gusted blow 
My journey not ended as on I go. 

Dare I tempt fate with hope of the dream 
Ending my journey at some place green. 
It’s all I thought for the end of my task. 
When high above in my mothers grasp. 

Now of no choice I begin to fall free. 
This looks like the end I won’t be a tree. 
Suddenly crash I can’t move I’m stuck 
Ironically saved by this huge metal truck

My carriage is stopping as I view the scene. 
All kinds of trees and fields of green. 
Forced from this monster I lift one more time 
But drop me honestly I really don’t mind. 

I’m lucky I think as I calmly lay at rest 
In a place like my dream With hope for the best 
And although at times I really could not see. 
One day it looks hopeful I will be a tree.

The Fallen

The Fallen 

Ordered not asked to carry out the deed. 
Over the trench wall at hesitant speed. 

Scared and frightened but with country at heart 
A nations men surge into the dark.

A bullets near miss that screeches by. 
Only to turn and see a friend where he lies. 

Bogged down in mud and laden with grief. 
Still running forward with gritted teeth. 

But what of the goal for the task in hand 
Just hundred yards of blood soaked land. 

Men and beasts cry out in vain 
Suddenly never to be heard again. 

Numbers depleting wounded and worn. 
no chance was had at the head of the storm. 

Fallen are all and for what we ask. 
As we try to make sense of this forsaken task. 

Though more will come a million and more 
But only to lay by their brothers before. 

For freedom and a  nations pride. 
Our boys and men laid down their lives. 

What must they think that we did not learn 
Warring again and making hearts yearn 

But now we honour you in life and death. 
The millions of you that drew your last breath

Poppies are worn and reefs are laid. 
For every brave soldier sadly slain. 

A trumpet sounds the final call. 
As we say thank you brave people one and all.

An Autumn Dance

An Autumn Dance 

Took upon and forced, a blustery Autumn dance. 
Partnered in routine , rays shimmer to enhance. 
Natures pallet abundant with autumnal shades of all. 
Summer heat withdrawing as we are painted into fall. 

Voices of the trees flirting to a scatter. 
Sporadic in there movement with rustling chatter chatter. 
They come to us with hopeful hearts  to play within our day. 
With disappointment only we sweep them all away. 

It comes to now a slowing end an autumn 
curtain fall
Covering all so soft and deep we wait for winters call. 
So now the trees stand tall and bare quiet with voices lost. 
From now to spring all we’ll hear is the howl of winters ghost.

A Pair For Life

A Pair for Life 


The start of my life really just for show 
Never placed on the ground just covering toes
Different devices to keep me in place 
Buckles , elastic , Velcro and lace 

We run and jump we play as one 
I hold my breath as through puddles we run. 
Pick up your feet don’t scuff my skin
I want a long life not thrown in the bin. 

Through our lives we’ve danced  and played 
Keeping you warm and dry each day
Occasions to smile  with others to be sad
You changed my facade to follow a fad. 

Older you are with steps not so sure. 
Fighting your illness the one with no cure 
Comfy I am now only worn inside 
One last time we walked slow and tired 

We changed many times through out the years 
Going it alone or copying peers. 
Sadly your gone and in a box I will drop 
Given for good cause to the charity shop.

Angels Trust

Angels Trust 

In angels we trust our loved ones souls
Be it taken to soon or graced of long life 
Quietly we sit bereft of reason to tragedy 
White feathers gliding gently remind us you are near

We break silence to seek solace from hurt and from fear. 
Searching our minds , eyes flicker and focus on memories past. 
Our deepest thoughts fall locked in amongst tears. 

Clarity of emotion is sought as our friends kind words are all we hear 
Soothing , calming and easing our fears 
Broken it’s true but strong to admit. 
So only in you do we trust in there souls 
Two young women who will never grow old.

Robins Soul

Robins Soul 

I hear you my friend come sit a while. 
As nature’s earth is heaped to a pile. 
I see you now, so come please eat 
There’s food for you in this muddy peat 

Taking your fill I watch you most 
Could you actually be a heavenly ghost. 
Eyes so deep you hold my stare 
Sending a message your sworn to care. 

Halted in feast now sat so long 
As if to remember the words of your song. 
Now sing for me please , your delicate tune 
Of which it’s beauty I’m never immune 

In a single note I am froze and bereft 
Remembering love ones in life and in death 
Vision turns misty with eyes full of tear 
Brought to me knowing a loved one is near. 

Bewitching you are with your reddened breast trusting my company as we sat at rest 
Goodbye for now my enchanting friend 
With cheer in the knowledge I will see you again
