This feels apt, so let’s go…

…

In the wake of dusk,

I feel the rain strain the skies.

The night bought into these lies,

And leaving the promise full of trust.

“Too feel your fingertips circling my cheeks”

At the peak of midnight,

The heavens lost their fight.

And gave in to the stars it held,

longing to feel the stars as they fell.

“Feel the warmth under your touch”

Into the hours that follo...

It’s never uphill,

Just as steep as we make it.

You can either walk through shit,

Or be forever still.

The top is always daunting,

Being weak can be haunting.

As you will rue the lost chances,

And those declined dances.

"take my hand, follow my lead..."

It's never downhill,

Just as steep as we make it.

You can either take the hit,

Or be life's shill.

The bottom is always the destination,

And t...

I was responsible for my pain,

But you were not responsible for inflicting.

Deep in my chest it lies to keep me sane,

Otherwise the scars and blood would be king.

This is my heart to care for,

But you chose to come through the door.

Hold my beating heart close to your chest,

Knowing you will do what is your best.

“Our hearts like glass, but precious like diamond”

I was not responsible for my Lo...

Watch as the crowds amass,

Breaking down the safety glass.

Did I do something wrong,

As they pile forward a thousand strong.

“Was It enough?”

Hoping this was all an illusion,

And i could feel something.

When all is said and done,

These tears will never sting.

*exhale*

I want to just go,

Let’s these words lurch.

This was my church,

But that was a lifetime ago.

*smile*

Watch with you by my sid...

Cracks form,

From your storm.

And your steel,

That has brought me to heel.

On one broken knee,

I feel it build within me.

Hands pressed on these crushed shoulders,

Like my chest lost under weight of boulders.

Splits open,

From your wretched pen.

And your ragged claw,

Opening me up into a maw.

Now I fall to see the sky,

As your anguish cuts my good eye.

Fingers squeezing my kneecaps,

As I search f...

For the heavens hold wealth,

At the cost of such ego death.

But it’s in service of the soul,

The one who chose to no longer be coal.

“These stars are mine, but you shine forever brighter”

I feel the grass beneath feet,

It grows faster than I do.

What such an amazing feat,

To feel the air and stay true.

“This ground is ours, but we will be stronger”

The air is rough against my cheek,

And thus I...

Mercy is the pyre onto you wish to burn me,

But douse me in those ashes so I can be free.

So then I can wash away this anguish,

And give in to my last wish.

My shadow is made of soot,

Into which I hide my loss.

And yet I am yet to be cross,

As I quash those feelings under boot.

“You’d never have guessed”

For I have reached the roof,

Seeing the stars burn is proof.

But there is nothing else here...

Announcement time, this time next week will be the last time I post on this app/website. This was not an easy decision to make but it is very much for the best.

I will be saving all my works from the beginning to the very end, I will go with head held high, streak ended and will be deleting my account the following week.

To those who have supported me and this app over the past 2-3 years it has ...

How do you even start a life after you have lost love in its most grandest form? One way is to hold your baby daughter in your arms, searching her features for shades of her mother and finding more than your heart had ever bargained for.

I was a father now, this flesh and blood was not just Freya it was me also and it was in the end down to me to raise this exquisite soul.
