  • Stand Tall, Stand Strong

    Stand Tall, Stand Strong

    Stand tall, Stand strong.

    Be brave, hold your head up high.
    The waves might keep crashing down.
    The storm might keep rolling on.
    But you have the strength to keep holding on.

    Soon you will see the sun.
    The sand, the right path to take.
    Your journey is forever evolving,
    Life is the joy we make.

    You will be swimming in a sea of dreams.
    Dreams of belief and value.
    Dreams of truth and desire.
    Dreams that will come true.

    Let the world hear your voice,
    Loud and clear.
    And be at peace.

    Open your heart and free your soul.

    The darkness will soon fade,
    And the lights will shine ever so brightly clear.

  • The Battle of Love And Pain

    The Battle of Love And Pain

    Fallen angel.
    Cold hearted.

    Blackened soul.

    Living out a life of mortal sin.
    Scars that mark a viscous battle fought of love and pain.

    This world can be cruel, tough love.
    Get back up and fight again.
    Life is change.

    Through the darkness seek guidance.
    Make peace deep within.

  • The Truth of Humanity

    The Truth of Humanity

    I try and try,
    But people don’t see.

    I speak the truth.
    But they dont believe.

    They would rather bring their false ideas alive,
    So much so that it becomes their own reality.

    Clouded by a haze of hate,
    Jealousy.

    Pretending to love,
    But tearing apart the pure serenity of connection.
    Drama and misdirection.

    A waste of time and breath.
    These silly games a way to hide their inner demons of hurt and pain.

    Afraid to face the consequences of their actions.
    Or see the suffering that lay behind them,
    In their path of destruction,
    Before it is to late.

  • Sleepless Nights

    Sleepless Nights

    My soul hurts.
    My minds a mess.
    Constantly playing games with the devils sweet caress.

    Jumbled and scrambled,
    Are my thoughts.
    A constant tornado of swirling emotions in my head.

    No rest.
    Life a bittersweet test,
    Of endurance and control.

    All i wish is to lay my head peacefully and dream of silence.
    A world away from the darkness in my bed.

    The terror in my head.

  • Till My Last Dying Breath

    Till My Last Dying Breath

    Swirling emotions.
    A river running red.

    All these ghosts and demons,
    Dancing in my head.

    My heart a cracked desert,
    A wide open plane of broken ground.

    My heart fleeting.
    Bounding for ressurection.
    Ressurection from the dead.

    Reborn through fire and flame,
    It is now time again.

    To rise up and conquer,
    This mighty war.

    To never flight and always fight.

    Till my last dying breath.

  • Deep Within.

    Deep Within.

    Deep within the darkness.
    In the dead of night.
    My mind wanders.

    Sailing through the raging seas of the storm.
    Travelling the windy roads of human emotion.

    Questioning the meaning of life,
    The answers constantly changing, building and reassesing.

    A break in my soul that may never fully be fixed.
    The silence of the night is my only true peace.

  • I Miss You

    I Miss You

    I’m still a little bit lost without you.
    I’m walking through the rain.

    I hope for the new day,
    Full of sunshine and fresh beginnings.
    A little ease from the pain.

    I miss you my dear friend most of all.
    Gone through everything from big to small.

    I miss you.
    When the nights are cold.

    I miss you.
    And your hand to hold.

    Your sweet smile.
    And bright blue eyes.
    the way you could make me feel like I could fly.

    I miss you.

    But I’m trying my hardest,
    To soar through my own skies.

  • Thank You

    Thank You

    Thank you
    For release.
    For teaching me expression,
    And the many lessons.

    Lessons of love,
    Life and pain.
    Bittersweet reality,
    And dream state fantasy.

    Holding onto hope.
    Through the battlefield of life.
    Through the good, the bad,
    And all the in between.

    And lastly,
    Thank you for showing me the way,
    To letting me be me.

  • Why Do We Run?

    Why Do We Run?

    We run and run and keep on running.
    But what are we running from?

    Ourselves?

    The darkness inside that eats the soul?
    If it is left to rot in silence,
    Without release.

    Why do we hide?
    When we can conquer.

    Be friends with our demons.
    Take a walk with them and learn,
    The inner secrets of your soul.

    Run inwards not away.
    To face the light another day.

    Lost your brain.

    Find it amongst the chaos,
    Where we are stripped of our misguided layers,
    To reveal our rawness.
    True to heart.
    To who we really are.
    Amongst the darkness and in the light.

    Fading in and out,
    Of reality and insanity.
    Searching for serenity.
    And a little peace in our heart.

  • They Come, They Go

    They Come, They Go

    They come,
    They go.
    Like the seasons change to and fro.

    Learn to hold on dearly,
    To those who have stayed.
    And when to let go.
    Of who no longer serves you,
    And of what has walked away.

    Take each lesson,
    Savour the time.

    Infinite memories,
    Stashed away in your wild heart.
    Open your soul,
    To a fresh start.

    Guide yourself,
    On your path to glory.
    And only take in,
    What feeds your soul.
    And ignites your fire,
    For passion, creativity and love.

    Burn brightly,
    And with no shame.

    Celebrate with the people,
    who will walk through hell and back with you,
    And brighten your day.

  • I’m stuck between feeling like saying fuck you then if that’s how little I mean to you now; and like I wish things were different and simple because even though my heart hurts I could never hate you. I loved you ever so deeply that a part of me always will.

  • Shattered Heart

    Shattered Heart

    Watch me make the world think I’m ok.
    Like I have danced all the pain away.

    Disguise,
    The storm inside.
    That rages on.
    Barreling waves crashing,
    Over and over again.
    Drowning.
    My heart heavy,
    And soul quiet.
    Crushed.

    But nobody would know,
    Nobody would buy it.
    From the smile I put on,
    A front to keep moving through,
    My haunting thoughts.
    To find what is still true.

    Watch me, I’ve mastered the art.
    Of looking like I’m not falling apart.
    But inside,
    I really have a shattered heart.

  • The Devil Wins Today

    The Devil Wins Today

    The devil wins today.
    In his fire my heart strings play.
    Songs of sorrow,
    Songs of loss.
    He’s seen the demons I have crossed.

    The mortal sins of paths I have taken.
    The scars of pain,
    And the mistakes I have welcomed to change.

    On a road unknown,
    Through the darkest night.
    My heavy soul echoes through the wind.
    Calling for days lost,
    From dawn till dusk.
    And into the deepest corners,
    Of desire and trust.

    In the devils land I play.
    A place of no where and nothing.
    The edge of reality,
    Over into insanity.

    On this journey, I may,
    Find pain and solace.
    And the will to live another day.

  • Demons Embrace 

    You were my only escape.

    The only one I let fully in.
    The only one I could break down and cry to.
    The only one that helped me fight my demons.
    The only one that made me feel truly safe.

    And now I cry for you,
    As my demons take full embrace.
    Everything locked away.
    Either numb or feeling all the pain.

    Wishing for silence,
    The end,
    Take me away.
