Monster

I love my daughter 
 I really do 
 But why does she turn into a monster 
 when it just me and you

Depression

DEPRESSION 
Every day is a struggle and I don't care  
Perhaps I am not alone but always feel that way
Relapse happens all to easy and so easy to give in
Even my friends pretend to understand and I smile a knowing smile 
So maybe they are not worth keeping, then I would be alone 
Sometimes this is how I feel not a good state of mind 
In my own space I would always like to be 
Only recently I think with a clear head
Never knowing if I am going to have a good or bad day

I'M Better Person Thank You

Once upon a time
Is that how all story's start
fairy tales from the heart 
not the darkness of fear 
of abuse from ones we hold so dear
the broken promises it wont happen again 
But it did over and over and over seven years  
I was the scapegoat for all the bad
silly me silly child silly silly man
I hid all the bruises and made up excuses 
as to why I was never seen
little did they know you had total control
locked away from the world in a tower block
I came from a broken home with broken marriages
and abuse was the norm
I put up with the abuse cried all the tears 
became a brainwashed automated housewife
you used abused and made me worthless
once just once you nearly killed me
that feeling was so sweet 
a blackness a darkness a peaceful sleep
....................................................................................
little did I know the stress I was under
Until I had a fit and was hospitalised 
I lay in that bed and was able to truly think and clear my head
I HAD TO LEAVE

I did so about a year later 
when I found the keys that were always hid

Crave

Oh what a sight 
it has been to many days and nights 
what a pleasure 
what a thrill
i want it now 
my hand is trembling i lick my lips 
so uncertain but i want it so much
closer......closer and closer still
gonna do it till nothing is left
oh its there i take a deep breath
the end all a fire  
wonderful pleasure i want more 
i tried to stop 
honest i did 
all i wanted was a CIG

Husband

You made me cry 
Don't know why 
Feel so sad and blue 
But what can I do 

You made me laugh
Tears after a storm 
Always my anchor 
Keeping me at bay

You made my eyes dance
See nothing but you 
you made me a lot of things 
And I became your wife

We made a family 
A boy and a girl
Many years have passed
and I THANK YOU

Leave Me Alone

My children are of an age where I can let them be 
I wish they would do the same for me 
All they do is take and demand and leave the hard work behind 
I really could do with a hand but they simply don't understand !!

No Tick Nor Tock

Watching silent hands 
Changing time in the darkness 
No tick nor tock just number changes
Illumining the shadows  

A small window of time
My eyes become heavy and weary 
I nod off for what feels a life time 
And the clock says NO 

Day light creeps upon the darkness 
Birds start the morning ritual
Night into day 
Where did the hours go

Watching silent hands 
No tick nor tock 
A new day has begun 
I guess I better get on

Daughter

Darling daughter 
Always admiring 
Undoubtedly understanding 
Graciously gathering 
Hopefully honest 
Truthful tones 
Eternally expecting 
Reassuringly realistic

Goodbye

You walk away within a moonlighted sky
 Not many shadows passing by
 A turning glance just for you 
 to wave goodbye
 
 That was the last of the memories
 Within a lingering kiss upon your palm
 Sending it my way 
 As you get ready to depart
 
 Sadness fills me as you  leave
 I know I will see you again
 Not wanting to watch the news 
 You never know when something will happen
 
 No newspapers delivered to the door 
 you never know
 Denial all the way
 Denial all the way
 
 Phone calls from strangers
 just as bad Fearing the worst
 Hide and delete
 Just in case it bears bad news 
 
 Door bells and knocks
 From behind hidden blinds
 I don’t know you
 I don’t want to respond
 
 Eighteen months without human contact
 Thinking others wont know
 The turmoil and sleepless nights 
 Wondering and waiting
 
 Until I know the call is from you 
 Short-lived and awkward 
 Just glad to hear your voice
 Tears down my face
 
 Uncontrollable happiness 
 Weakness in my knees
 Never before so knocked over
 with the sound of your voice
 
 Pretending you next to me Holding me close,
 Cradling my fears
 Until my eyes grow weary
 And I snuggle deeply into sleep
 
 Goodnight my love I hear you say
 Keep my memory always
 Talk of me often
 I will always love you
 
 Goodbye my dearest
 My last words to you
 How I wish this was not true
 See you soon, always yours  

 I will only see you in my dreams

Dead Serene

almost midnight 
streets aglow 
lanterns flickering 
but why who knows 

rustling leaves 
in roadside gutters 
cats a prowling 
no birds tonight 

foxes squealing
calling their young
dogs a barking 
secure indoors 

some people 
on their way home 
wobbly walking 
talking and laughing 

me all alone 
sat staring and watching 
taking in all the life 
knowing really i am not alone
