The Lonely Old Man

The lonely old man wrinkled he's aged,
he's gone into care he feels like he's caged.

Weak he's fragile but his mind is in tact,
the way life is it's a matter of fact.

The lonely old man he's missing his wife,
waiting to die looking back o his life

Looking through photographs a distant memory it seems,
frightened by death it's plaguing his dreams.

The lonely old man it seems nobody cares,
in his bedroom he sits there and stares.

One day a young lady comes to help him get ready,
on his feet he's not stable he's become unsteady.

The lonely old man he's feeling a tired old chap,
the lady dresses him smartly finishing with his cap.

Out in the gardens she takes him for a walk,
from his wheelchair  he laughs as they talk.

The lonely old man and the lady they bond,
watching the fish as they swim in the pond.

Days go by the man weakens he's worse,
the lady stays with him that's her promise as a nurse.

The lonely old man ready to leave his life,
he starts seeing the face of his beautiful wife.

Holding his hand she knows he is dying,
trying to be professional she can't stop herself crying.

The lonely old man turns to the lady,
his face has darkened his eyes grey and shady.

Slipping away his breathing is slow
knowing it's time for him he must go.

Jr

You use your son as a weapon a selfish childish game,
not bothered by your actions no remorse, regret or shame. 

Not giving a shit about your son and the right to see his dad,
Posting lies on facebook trying to make this man look bad.

You phone up all the time just to be a bitch,
is your life really that bad you nasty little witch.

Not caring that you've hurt him and your son too,
when will the law wake up to women just like you.

You think that this is funny you should be done for slander, 
creating all these lies it's all just propaganda.

He doesn't stand a chance with you he's tried to be a dad,
all the proof is here deep down you know you're bad.

You poison your child against him in some sick game to try and win,
One day your son will know the truth no longer will you grin.

With no real reason for stopping contact, except the fact your hurt,
maybes he would of stayed if you didn't treat him like dirt.

You need to learn your lesson be brought down a peg or two,
nasty you're dangerous your power should be stripped from you. 

One day he'll see his son the truth will then be stated,
how will your son feel then knowing what you've created.

You will get your karma one day you'll loose the fight,
ruined a relationship you've denied them of their right.

Living In 2014

Living in a bubble the world is now suppressed,
looking through the window this place is too depressed.

An economy that has risen  we are all slaves to this,
the government is greedy they really do take the piss. 

Fighting for survival a game that's full of deceit.
shocked by the rise in prices I can't look at my receipt.  

Living in this crazy world it's full of unwanted danger,
it really comes to something when you no longer trust a stranger . 

Technology has taken over our kids are sucked right in, 
all in the name of money this is such a greedy sin. 

The recession has hit us hard and we aren't the one's to blame,
the banks are the people who should hold their heads in shame.

Living in a bubble the world has reached this state,
an awakening is needed before it's too late.

Angry

Angry and bewildered your driving me insane,
making me want to runaway I don't want to feel this pain.

We argue fight and curse each other nearly every day,
is this what love is really like is this the way.

Crying with frustration all I can do is shout,
once upon a time with us there certainly was no doubt.

I need a little space a place where I can breathe, 
will we make a comeback or forever will you leave.

Maybes we aren't meant to be things are turning sour,
or maybes our love will blossom just like that of a flower. 

Angry i'm annoyed your constantly on my back,
where is the support that we both seem to lack. 

All I know now is I need time to think,
I'm pushed to the edge i'm standing on the brink. 

Do I shut the door and keep all men at bay,
or do I fight for us and beg for you to stay.

Angry I am hurting is this really what we are,
please just be a bad patch and together we'll go far.

Domestic

Domestic violence, I feel it in your silence, 

I see the pain in your eyes, hearing the torture in your cries.



Bruises, broken bones your half dead,

he battered you so badly there's scars on your head, with the feeling of 
dread.



To weak to fight his strength, you'd go to any length,

to break free run from this bully, he don't love you in his heart not truly 
or fully.



Excuses are running out, you have to get out 

U can hear him coming, you get the urge to start running.



You freeze he grabs you by the hair, 

pleading with him to stop, in this rage he doesn't care.



Another punch in the face, he throws you around, 

too young to pick you up off of the ground.



He says he didn't mean it, i wish you could of seen it 

from the beginning, he's got a hold of you he thinks he's winning.



walking on egg shells living in this hell,

too afraid to speak out, there's no one you can tell.



He rapes you batters you inflicts all this pain,

stripped you of your dignity, makes you feel insane.



Domestic violence, break your silence

fight back your strong, what he's doing is wrong

Mr Brightside

Mr brightside come back to make me smile,
I haven't seen you for a long time it's been a lengthy while. 

Come light me up with your sunshine like the days when I felt free,
sitting by the river reading books under my favorite tree.

Mr brightside shine your warm light brightly,
lift this darkened mood even if it's just slightly.

Give me strength and courage to lift me from this state,
take away the sadness don't let me feel such hate.

Mr Brightside please save me from this torment,
let me live my life so i can appreciate the moment.

I'M Not

I'm not giving in nor will I loose hope, 
I wont obey these demons I wont choose to use the rope. 

I'm not afraid anymore I've seen it all,
I'm stronger than ever I will rise from the fall. 

I'm an adult now I choose my own choices, 
I'm wide to you and your voices. 

I'm me and that's ok you may not like me, 
I wont follow suit I'll be who I want to be.

I'm over this you've ruled me for too long, 
I'm wiser now it's you in the wrong.

Injected With a Poison

Injected with a poison my body weak it's limp,
forced to work the streets at the hands of my greedy pimp.
Working through the night my body's bruised it's battered,
All my hopes and dreams into a million pieces they've shattered.
Tortured by the demons affected by the drugs,
living in this cold dark place amongst these sleazy thugs.
Got to find a way out I need to get away,
they threaten me with death tell me I must stay.
Injected with a poison thrown back into the game,
selling myself to the devil i'm drowning deep in shame. 
Blocking out reality looking for a vein,
standing on the dirty streets already feeling that drain.
In another dimension I'm high as a kite,
my will too weak to struggle on and win the fight.
Injected with a poison I've become a modern slave,
clinging on to hope trying to be brave.
Locked up in this bedroom with women just like me,
thinking of a plan to help to set u free.
Turning on our pimp we stand and say no more,
stabbing him in the chest he crashes to the floor. 
Injected with a poison  together we are saved,
the memories of this tragedy in me they've engraved.

For My Father a Stranger To Me

Where is my father who I've not yet seen, 
Where is he living where has he been. 
Uncanny this feeling it's making me sad, 
Left me hurting I'm needing my dad. 
His face I can not picture an image forgotten, 
How could he do this it's simply just rotten. 
Maybes I'll meet him one day if it's down as my fate, 
Or maybe I'll meet him waiting at heavens gate. 
Where is my father he's supposed to be by my side. 
I search for him always with eyes open wide. 
He knows I exist he just can't stand up and be a dad, 
It sure is hard but mostly it's sad. 
I know I'm not in the wrong I was only a child, 
Having no father is driving me wild. 
Where is my father where has he been, 
I dream of the day his face can bee seen.

I'M

I'm not angry anymore I've cried too many tears,

 I've been the one to overcome my fears.

 I'm not sorry that I don't know you it's the path you chose to take,

 angry with my mother you see me as a mistake. 

 I'm not missing out on my children's lives to me it is my duty,

 this opportunity is a gift filled with lots of beauty.

 I'm not sad anymore I've tried too hard to reach you,

 only one chance I wanted, I'm not here to try and preach you. 

 I'm not ashamed anymore,  I've accepted that you don't want this,

 we have no memories together, there's nothing for me to miss.

 I'm not pulling myself apart because of a choice you made,

 it's on your conscious forever, but for me this hurt will fade.

 I'm  not perfect but I'm not afraid to face the things in  life,

 I hope you are happy raising someone else's children, sitting cosy with 
your wife. 

 I'm your only daughter In my heart I know you once cared,

 the situation was crazy too young you ran off scared.
