Give me a kingdom,
I’ll turn it to dust.
Breaking down buildings,
Destruction is a must.
Give me some water,
I’ll throw it in your face.
Incomparable to a quarter,
Getting away from this place.
Give me some love,
I’ll cry it away.
Make sure it’s enough,
The jingle bells slay.
Give me your sleep,
I’ll breathe out of life.
Caught in knee-deep,
Heartbreak with your knife.
Give me your mind,
I’ll ...

Action
Dost thou care for a drink?
Reddened wine makes thy cheeks flushed.
I can make thou smile in a blink,
Have ravaging dreams crushed.
Dost thou mock my words?
I count it not for entertainment.
Having thou chained like birds,
A pretty pearl not in displacement.
Dost thou crave to dance?
Seeing thy beauty rise in each step.
Coconut eyes assemble thy trance,
I’m happy to say in light we met.
Dost th...
Drama
I’ve been waiting for 50 days,
Yet I wrote with my favourite pen.
Maybe our love was just a phase,
But I’d appreciate a reply every now and then.
Sent to the war in the finest uniform,
Made it myself with working hands.
Your young son was never born,
Died from infection of swollen glands.
Every frost and nightfall pops up like toast,
Clocks are counting endless hours.
I’m still waiting for the m...
Romance
A puzzle has many parts,
Each coloured for a purpose.
Needing patience for the start,
To finish a picturesque circus.
I want to say I’m contrasting,
But my window views are cracked.
Time away is passing,
Intrusive thoughts haunt and tracked.
Why must I be ashamed?
I fear those who are offended.
So many to be blamed,
For the trauma they have blended.
Smash them into pieces,
Ignore me in the hust...
Hand like a bee that stings to the touch,
Mouth like a serpent when you wish it good luck.
The body of a monster when it sees itself,
Creative minds locked in a bookshelf.
The growl of a lion as it hunts its prey,
Like the victims of murder who have no say.
A scratch of a pen as the celebrities sign,
Forced a certain life to stay in line.
A drool of hunger for the starving mind,
Ravaging food li...
Fantasy
At night I shot my bodyguard with guns,
I dare you to vomit into space.
Can I tempt you with some sugar honey buns?
Wipe the facade over my face.
I’ll keep you perfect under my wing,
If you tell me poetry in return.
Melt my nightmares if you sing,
And I’ll make your world burn.
If you’re here give me a nod,
I know such life can be tedious.
I’ll tightrope walk over your bod,
Police won’t catch, I...
Thriller
A warm and cloudless summer’s day,
As I stood feeding my horse a barrel of hay.
Such a shiny coat and big glistening eyes,
I was so terribly glad he couldn’t hear my cries.
The mountains were stuck with snow falling adrift,
A perfect honeymoon for the day to be kissed.
My mother was dead and father’s body failing,
But that didn’t stop my dreams to come sailing.
Lying in a bed drowning in thought...
Western
Is neurodivergent a cool word?
Not many understand its meaning.
I wish I was the latter, a free-flying bird,
Instead I’m dying, tears streaming.
Eardrums burst with vibration of love,
Withdrawal, addiction, music of every kind.
Ashamed to want to be rid of,
The blinding truths inside my mind.
Retard, spastic, and useless freak,
How many more should I endure?
My future feels so bleak,
Stuck in a ...
I’m a lonely man in the attic here,
Reminiscing on songs you sang my dear.
Your beautiful voice cradled our children to sleep,
But all I do is lay here and weep.
I remember your touch cured my lame,
Feeling happy every time you called my name.
My dear, I wish you could change my state,
As soon as I was there for you it was too late.
Do you watch the children cry as I berate them?
They need their...
Nice to see you again father,
I’m just kidding you fucking heart carver.
I wrote this poem about you, you’ll like it,
It’s full of all you did right down to the shit.
Right at the start where I was born,
Dying from suffocation, almost torn.
I was daddy’s girl thinking I had worth,
Bro, you weren’t even there for my birth.
That should have been a sign,
Knowing you couldn’t keep me mine.
Everyday ...
