Where Will I Be

Looking in the mirror I see You, Lord, Looking back at me, High, drunk, enraged, full of anxious fear, oh Lord, Where do I go, What do I say, Do I just let go, Or, do I stay, How can I go on, oh Lord? My life has gone by me, All this time lost,…

Addiction

Dark desolated passage way through, Portal wide apart calling us forward, Running backwards, Horrified faces scream, Silence echoes in return, Caverned hell gapes ahead, Arms stretch outwards grasping for solid soul, Closer we creep, harder we fight, Life in helpless moment, Under the skin we feel those crawling insects of fear, Goosebumps surge as adrenaline…

Forever Recovery

Forever I am stuck, In this viscous cycle of recovery, Never ending my brain turns, Churning out the cycler thoughts, Which spin the paranoia, Out of thin air, Such circles spin and spin, As I sit stuck in this everlasting cycle, Recovering from each stressful moment, Each time feeling little further from the start, Slower…

Sea Stories: A Surprise Visit

We’re All Alone

Looking at myself now, Long held down by the machines, My brain set out to construct, Lost myself between the circitry, Inside a narcistic existance, Buried deeper a soft exterior, Unexposed by the walls of fear, Holding back the world so near, Feeling the crumbling cracks, Myself I, me alone in this concrete hall, Exposed,…

Forgotten Self

Escape, retreat down the regretful halls, Escape, enter into the realm of mystic, Escape, me, I, self, want, desire, Let go, Free, myself of the bond, Free, myself of the chain, Free, myself of the memories, Let go, Drift, away from me thou foul dirty whispers, Drift, away from me thou horrible tool of self…
