Hear her Call

You said that you
Free her
Would catch her
Not stand by
You would catch her fall

As she calls out your name
Silenced by isolation
You don't hear her call



Promises made
Never to be spoken
Now left broken
Shadows cast
Walked out the door
Printed on the floor
Issues left unspoken



Release the inner sound
Hear her heart pound
Raise the bar high
Don't tell her a lie
Pull up a stool
Act like a fool
A ticket
Printed in blood
To hear her cry



Washed out
Turned out
Worn out
Burnt out

Drenched to the skin
Soaked within
Pushing and pulling
Full of sin
Never going to win



Catch another glimpse
Rise amongst the pimps
Catch an eye full
Never going to persuade her to stay
watch her walk away

No future
No walls to build
No heart
To destroy
To cull
To be willed

Camouflage

Pulled roads
Trapped in between
Fire surrounds
Encased souls

Foliage meets
Pathways signalling
Journeys ahead
Restless minds
Horses gallop along the sides

Signage poor
To the visible eye
Drive on now
Try and try

Wheels in motion
Her perfume
Is his love potion
His smile her lotion

Sky line
Maps the adventure ahead
Finding shelter
To rest
Curious heads
 

Coded Sky

Red sky shapes the lines
Fluffed up candyfloss
Populated in the air above
What was once white
Now velvet red
Scorching like an artist brush
Flaring natures beauty

Selection of aircraft
Highlights your beauty
Brushing a melting
Sun glazed scene

1,9,18   3,18,1,6,20
18,15,12,12,9,14,7
Across the breeze
Coded numbers
Represent your dance

Pulling in the night sky
Shadowing the day left behind
Beauty so profound
2,9,18,4,19
19,8,5,12,20,5,18

Banish

Born on a boat
Shipped off to sea
Exiled by devastation
Over populated nation

Sacrifice of mothers
Fathers too
Leaving the land of familiar
Blasted land left behind
Condemned and in cinders

Echoes of crying eyes
Silenced by raging seas
Empty tummies
No food
To feed the babies

Day turns to night
Speckles of sparkle
Lights up the night
Mapped sky
Questions in minds
Why

Dawn breaks
Ship shakes
Rescue comes
Rumbling of tummies
Mothers cradle children
Singing out hums 

Captured Cycle

Round and round
Her mind goes
Where it will stop
No one knows

Check all done
Check again
Just to be sure
On and on
She tries

Gathering moves
Similar to yesterday
Choices of the inevitable
Jigsaw puzzle
In disarray

We are all hidden pieces
Moulded from the past
Memories imprinted
In our minds
Sheltered protected
Forever will they last

Fire burns within her heart
Smells textures
Travel along her throat
Not enough pockets
In a lifeless coat

Shedding skin
Trying to win
Slaved by a whirlpool
Of noise
One last breath
One final goodbye 

Emerald Nights

Scattered thrown across the floor
Silence is her saviour
Obedience her nature
Caged like a wild creature

Standing in the middle of the floor
Door sealed tight
Unable to release
Into the day light

Breath held tight
Shadow behind her
Emerald nights
Hands grasp
Her breath like a knife

Pushed pulled thrown
Delivered to the Void
No where to run
No where to hide

Compose

You stand
You stare
You capture me
Like a victim
In your snare

Purpose is there any
Following instructions
No clues
Voice in tatters
Ego is bruised

Shuffling and rustling
Patient nothing lives there
Performing like the wild
No reflection
No care

Eyes widen
Distant and bemused
Another day of nothing
Silence
Another day
In their shoes
