Try closeness as a comfort
Warmth as a blanket to the cold.
Pleasure weathers heartache
Hardening the skin
Allowing empathy to grow kind.
Follow extremes
Accept samples of love
As dark and light realities.
When the wondering retreats
We can halt half way to freedom
Retrace footprints to find balance.
Once I questioned
Now I answer freely,
Untainted,
And with more clarity
Than the present.
Echoes in the mind
Flow rampant, encircling
Affecting most prominent responses
Albeit listened
It is unmoving
Though unnerving
The primary speaks truth
Imitations less reliant
Consistent in its perseverance
A skimming stone
Simmering to a sunken weight
Dead in the water
Sits of an innocence
Vibrating ripples of continuance
First thoughts I dispense with caution
Notion with an ironic flaw
A split second occurrence
With no stage for reflection
Containing irrational undertones
Speed ‘Becomes’ essence
Dismay is uncontrolled
Outlines feasible complications Conversation is to-be heeded
True words believed, transpired with time
Character prevails via choices
Shaped by unrushed competence
Instant verbs evolve and mature
Sharp decisions cease to race
Knowledgeable peace combines
Sheds light on existence
Judgement swallowed by reality
Being misconceived becomes scarce
Harmony elected with a mutual dignity.
Out of body experiences doubt my existence
Feeling in limbo, questioning propaganda
Choices agreed but not remembered
Losing sanity slowly to a doppelganger
Familiar face reflects my smile
Eyes deep of black radiating trouble
Words speaks my voice to society’s nods
I’m the only conscience, seeing this flawed double
Mind stays guarded from being watched
In my dreams his courage grows to speak
Explains my character will be invaded
Though if he bleeds I bleed
Only in the mirror I can ask for mercy
The answer sincerely will be the same
That my tainted fracture soul will soon vanish
And only my demon, will remain.
A thought ‘What if,
Revealed as A gift
From the devil,
Once hearing the words
They can’t be unheard.
Statement for the foolish
And nonsensical
Whose beliefs fall inside comfort,
Where only black and white exists
Living Joy swapped for awkwardness
Motivated and elated
Until intrusive doubt hits,
Irrational thoughts whisper
‘What if, what if’
Spoiling a moment on high
Disfiguring the feeling
Of laughing to a cry
Humour swamped by fear,
Freedom put in pockets
Until the unsuspecting host
Lays in wait for a chemical reprieve
From a biological resolution
A Pill to recieve.
When tablets run dry
Whose there to clear the sky
From the blue clouds,
Frustrated on a belief so false
Constantly Irritates general functions,
The guilt hurts the most
Unsuspectingly the will gives in,
It Surrenders to the voices
That bring emotions of doom
To the places where you once sang,
The choice from this time
Is not whether to run or fight,
Curl up and freeze,
Its whether to jump or hang
While sanity meanders
Character is subjected to slanders
Years afraid of lies once said
Sits quiet as physicality deflates to dead
Please my dear, Don’t be afraid
When it’s made,
The bed of the departed
Set and warm,
Lay down as eternity beckons
Crossing arms for forever seconds
Shoulder weight lifts
As responsibility shifts,
To the air
The burdened fatally shared
Promises spoken by the mouth of her
Deadly silent defines the breath is over
No more clashes as substance becomes ashes,
Tears and sadness as silence reaks
Chaos lives while the devil speaks,
With him she shares a fitted box
Relief and confusion as no more she knocks.
