Apres la Vie

She lived for chaos and would often bathe in it’s aftermath.

What was happening right now was utterly perfect, like a concoction of random events.

And all she had to do was turn up:

First there were the kids, wide-eyed as she entered and pointed at her black dress.

Then the kids ran back to their parents, who scolded them for staring, arguments ensued about parenting, because that’s a great topi...

The shadows danced at the edge of my vision,

Lit by the flames sitting atop my torch.

Standing at the entrance plagued by indecision,

Venture deeper or back out into the scorch.

Sweat beads forming on my brow,

What lies in the depths beyond my fear.

Silence and the skittering of insects is all I hear,

All within this tomb is never for show.

My steps forward are nervous but certain,

The fire from...

I always knew I had a knack for stealing, in all fairness it was the only thing I was good at.

My cleaning job didn’t pay enough, my love life needed cleaning also and there was my family that always said, “Dee, your life always sucks but you get us out of a jam”

But here I was laying facedown with a mouthful of dirt in a bush under a kindergarten school window, my messenger bag full of diamonds ...

What I fought for in the dark,

I lost in the harshness of the light.

…

Empathy is found not taught.

…

Confessing is only ever as good as the air you choose to confess into.

…

I didn’t earn this armour it was given to me by the ones who left me.

…

Don’t ever reason with grief,

You in turn will find yourself the thief.

Thank you, I had these swirling around my head for the past few days....

Have we got to this point?

That we need to push the button to reset?

Oh look, they are now upset!

This notion has put their noses out of joint!

The earth is such a detachment now,

Hollow is the feeling of empathy for our origins.

But you forgive all those rotten sins!

Give our flesh, blood and our planet the same vows!

Craving a reconnection,

But unable to accept our failings.

Watching the end t...

On this path,

I know no harth.

To the heavens a stick I throw,

Which direction it falls I go.

To a village made on silk,

But ruined by gambling.

I alone of this ilk,

Listening to schemers rambling.

Earning ryos hand over fist,

Schemes in my head I have a list.

But I’d rather bring this town to boil,

And leave the idle to toil.

Katana in hand bringing hucksters to blows,

And liars bows bent to t...

This was the place I died,

Over and over again.

In my dreams of the other side,

All my hope dried up,

At the bottom of that tree.

And my soul became an empty cup.

I see this horizon in my reverie,

It will doom our future.

Atop this damn tree.

I fall asleep every night,

And I beg to be awake.

Away from this sight.

I love you baby 🖤...

It was the end of the line, this fate i hate created was inescapable, the seeds sown for this situation had been long in the making.

Actions carved into my past like lovers' initials on an old oak tree.

All that looting and pillaging had come back to bite me, i accepted my fate as the flames licked higher, this pyre made of personal cinders.

i look down, at the village that i helped save, dozens ...

Burned into all you are,

Shapes your reflexes.

Looming like hexes,

‘And I am back in that car’

Stained into your silver,

Blamed for your actions.

Past and present empty factions,

‘Knowing I couldn’t have her’

Dreams where it lives again,

Tasting the irresistible airs.

Death to all who cares,

‘Shut in by the rain’

Weights tugging on my heart,

Indescribable burdens on my senses.

Here i stand behi...

I don’t know you,

But I would die for whatever your name is.

I don’t know you,

But i would now throw away all for a chance at this.

I don’t know you,

But my life belongs to all you are.

I don’t know you.

But I live through your pen and ink.

I know you,

Because I became your avatar.

I know you,

And I am no longer me.

I love you baby 🖤...
