PERHAPS YOUR HEART IS MECHANICAL


Sometimes people don’t mean to hurt you with their words

They are just incapable of knowing that they hurt.

YOU CHEW PEOPLE UP AND THEN SPIT  THEM OUT

 

You are a predator and you have trapped me
The fear of losing you
Cripples me

Like the echo of your silence!

THE MIRROR CRACKED

 

I have said goodbye a thousand times
And in a thousand ways
Yet still you are here using space in my heart,
in my thoughts
Under my skin.
I glance at my shattered reflection and see you

mirrored in my eyes.

THERE IS ALWAYS A POINT OF  IMPACT



Stand at the edge of the abyss

I dare you

Stand at the of the abyss and stare down into

The fall of then nothingness

Stand at the edge of the abyss of love

and feel the terror

Consuming you-like a burning flame

It draws you closer....closer....closer

FALL....SLOWLY





THE WAY THE SAND FEELS BENEATH YOUR FEET

I always make the time

To listen to your insecurities

To your pain

But i  feel your distance

When I need you to do the same.

We're sharing the same space

But we are parted by the ocean.





FACES CAN HAUNT YOU

  You have the propensity to lift me to the stars

that need the velvet night

          To shine so brightly

Or shatter like crystal as you consign me to the

      Emotional hell of my nightmares!               



THE CINEMA OF LOVE

Counting times you said I love you

  Counting times you didn't feel it

Counting times you wished you were with her

    Feeling love, pain, loss, confusion...

         Feeling empty, hollow and  alone



WHAT  CHANGED

 

I sometimes wonder
Do you visit your memories too
The dream of love we once shared.
The time we stopped being children and discovered a
Personal magic all of our own.
What happened to us to our visions and dreams?

EFFIGIES

I had a million thoughts to share with you
But you were never there
You were always chasing someone, something more
I was always second best

WHEN I THINK OF YOU

Are you watching me as I hurtle down the road to self annihilation?
                                      I can’t stop the momentum
                                  So I just keep moving forward
                             Into the oblivion of self annihilation.

You used to send me names of songs to tell me how much you loved me
               But you also sent them to others 
                                   sometimes the music  ends!

YESTERDAY WAS FILLED  WITH SWEET

                              MELODIES

YOU CAN DIE FROM LOSS OF BLOOD

 

Sometimes I haemorrhage words of love

to someone who does not want to  listen
Someone who I know doesn’t care
            But I still haemorrhage

SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO SET IT FREE

You have pulled and pulled at the strings that bind me to you

I dance, I jump, I run, I collide at your pull

your mindnumbing control

and all the time I resent you!

YOU CAN DIE MORE THAN ONCE

The dagger should have been made from venetian glass

  But it was made with shards of ice from lying words

                 Thrust into the heart and twisted

                   over and over and over

Each turn- more pain......but no blood

That had been extracted slowly........

over months before!

STATIONS ARE FILLED WITH NEW BEGINNINGS

Each day that passes finds me more lonesome, lost than the one before

The world I've lived in for so long

I'm finding was just a world of dreams

I'd like to find the answer to the question

WHO AM  I/

but it just keeps slipping by.
