Prisoner

Bottled up and shaken hard
Put in a box with a card
Locked away and buried deep
Those feelings are for me to keep

No one relates to me anymore 
My mind is furthest from a bore
Twisting reality is quite unique
They say I am a creepy freak

Murky answers dumped in a pile
Integrity and motives left on trial
No where to hide, no tiny space
Thoughts destroy every place 

Dark demons occupy my mind 
They keep me in quite a bind
Tormenting me with each evil word
What is said is clearly heard

I know they’re right with what they say 
There’s no point left to try and pray 
No one will save someone like me
Accepting now that I cannot flee

Mysterious Arrival

Drenched by the relentless rain 
He waltzed right up to me 
Dragging around a battered bag 
It was quite the sight to see 

He waltzed right up to me 
He told me a short tale 
It was quite the sight to see 
As he spoke my face did pale 

He told me a short tale 
It shocked me to my core 
As he spoke my face began to pale 
He said it washed up on the shore 

It shocked to my core 
What he saw was quite the sight 
He said it washed up on the shore 
It was packaged up quite tight

What he saw was quite the sight 
It was sure to drive one insane 
It was packaged up quite tight 
Drenched by the relentless rain

Gaslights

Love had finally cracked her shell 
It let her out the cold wet cell
Her prison had become her shield
But once again he cast a spell 

Secretly peaking from the dark 
Tiptoeing to follow the spark 
This path was all too familiar 
Wondering when she’ll see the shark

The beast who shredded her young heart 
This time she must be very smart 
Like butter, plans were slowly spread 
Before, her life was torn apart 

A hole chewed and swallowed her soul 
He had used his remote control 
To have her follow his bright trail
A beautiful mind he then stole 

Oh no, again, her light went out
Emotions flooded out the spout 
Spun in his web so very tight 
Stitched up her mouth to stop the shout

Abstract

Reality contorted the way she would see
Disconnecting from us set her free

Free to explore and create stories so dark
The monsters and ghouls all left a deep mark 

Alone with her truths as we all just stare 
Those beliefs broke her heart while her brain would tear

Minichu - the Trip

New beginnings thrills my heart
Let’s all play music, sing some songs, and dance
A fresh start

I’m feeling prime
Soothing our souls and get in trance
It’s time

New me
A perfect Chance 
Free

New beginnings thrills my heart
Soothing our souls and get in trance 
Free

Unconditional Love

A child's love is one to praise
They really are easy to raise
Your mistakes are what to note
You blanket them with those words that coat

Coat their souls and shape their world
Some vicious words people can hurl 
Remember words do break the bones 
The spine of children aren't made of stones

They are fragile flowers of the earth 
Its up to you to show them their worth 
They have that right to expect 
For you to deliver guidance with respect

All they need is tons of love 
It what is taught to us from above 
Leave them with hugs and feeling kissed 
Show them that they are missed

Killer Image

A drop of blood trickled from a vein
Cut up for being vane 
Gazing at the reflection in the pane
Ignoring the emerging pain 

Shoes lined up in pretty rows 
On the bed a single rose 
The blood oozes fast and fills a pail
The face slowly starts to pale

Heavy does the depression weigh
No longer going the right way 
The killer collects his earn
After handing over a pretty urn

Universe

Thoughts must be clear
And not make you tear 
Set up the stage
And turn the page 

Be positive and bright
Pay attention in light
Opportunities float by
Grab them to fly

You must take action
For the law of attraction
Don’t just sit on your bum
Or  soon you’ll feel glum 

The secrets within words
That are spoken by  herds
Change your point of view 
So the earnings accrue

Desiring - Bite Size

The mist rolls in
I want to sin
Oh crescent moon
You left too soon 
My heart is sore  
Yet yearns for more

Disorientation

The mist sits heavily on my brain
Scrambled thoughts swim in the rain
No maps or even a road sign
Feet straddling the wavy line 

Dragging around my heavy heart 
Internal quakes tears me apart 
Sticky webs drench my skin 
I lust and yearn to just sin 

Mirrors reflect fading angel wings 
Playing solo on the swings 
Enveloping pleasure on each drop
Secretly plotting the final stop
