Possession

It's not that I have faltered I'm falling
Into a deep and endless abyss
I close my eyes to the darkness
Head in to the growing myst
Thoughts take form and shape
No longer and amorpheous blob
If I don't say the words yet
I'm trying not to sob
A silent hole is growing
Deep down in my chest
Let's leave the world alone
Forget about the rest
It will keep for now love
Waiting for space and time
No matter what else happens
You are mine

The Abyss

I’m tired of this world

It’s not worth the strength to fight

I feel the abyss pull me down

Will you miss me when I’m gone?

Would the world be different?

Would you feel horrible?

That it was your words that drove me over the cliff?

Don’t worry I won’t

But only because I’m afraid of the dark

If I wasn’t

I would be gone in a heartbeat

Heartbeats are only drums

Who likes the rhythm anyway?

It gets in the way of the chaos

I dislike order

Today I will live if only because

Madness is easy

Sanity is hard

P.S.  I am only a writer.  These are only words.  I am in a perfectly sound state of mind but many are not. There are place to help those who can.  Here is a current fundraiser that is running for the Prince's Trust.  It helps many.  Help if you can.

No Compromise

I love you for who you are

Not who I want you to be

I learned long ago that compromise doesn’t work

If you aren’t yourself you have nothing

You should know what you are getting into

Otherwise the beginning will be the end

The shadows will draw nearer

As tomorrow’s troubles come at a price

Your freedom means more than mine

My heart will always be chained

But you could still flap your wings

Better to end with a song

Than to descend into the abyss
