Cuddle Slut

Soft, smooth, cream skin just waiting for my touch
Both wrapped up in a bliss beyond sublime
Lying on me, warming my heart so much
She gives what I’ve been needing all this time
Forgetting the world – yes this is the way
Close to each other in a moment fair
But she’s not listening to what I’ve to say
She has a goal – one I refuse to share
She rejects me - writing me off as strange
As she knows signs of the pathetic path
Nothing I say or do will prompt a change
She knows the truth and boy is it a laugh

So into my delusions she does tear
As doom awaits those who bother to care

Welcome Back to Humanity

Come through the door and step into the sun
Good to see you: We’ve been waiting for you
We’re so glad you faced your troubles and won
And now’s the time to start your life anew
You’re one of us. Take your place and a bow
Let the world know you’re on a winning streak
Nothing left on this earth can stop you now
Things can only get better from this peak
Each step is taken both with life and weight
Forget your old clothes, take all these new ones
Look like a million dollar success rate
You’ll shine with the strength of a thousand suns

We’re all so happy that you’ve come so far
It’s a new dawn rising: go forth and conquer

Pass the Prozac

The happy pills drive away the abyss
But doesn’t keep it away forever
The pills don’t hit their target: They just miss
I can’t win - And nothing’s getting better
The happy pills just aren’t doing their job
They’re making things worse: They increase my frown
Feelings of catastrophe sparks a sob
Into a sea of black. Prepared to drown
Once cheerful memories are now hazy
Familiar faces have now vaporised
I just hope they are all thinking of me
As on this endless losing streak I ride

Better off dead – The realisation hit
Heavens falling down taking me with it

You Won't be On Your Own

Ever found a friend who makes you happy
Who wants to help you through when you are down?
Who’ll save you from despair so you won’t drown?
Who makes any thoughts of loneliness flee?
Ever found a friend who’ll stick up for you?
Who doesn’t care whether you’re wrong or right
Who will assist you in the hardest fight
Even when the end of the world looms true
Ever found a friend who’s walked through hell too?
One who will never ever walk away
Regardless of the things you do or say
Ever found a friend who’s a lot like you?

I have. I’ve a friendship as strong as steel
One that’s tenacious, genuine and real

Revelations

I’m through with drowning in my misery
I’m not running this time. I’ll make a stand.
I won’t flinch at the walls in front of me
I’ll just destroy them all with my bare hands
It’s got to happen and it will happen
Because all I want to do is stay sane
Fighting my way out of this lion’s den
My mind is there for only me to claim
As I refuse old methods so uncouth
Radiating with a strength I can trust
And the mind finally wakes to the truth
The lies, the delusions – all ground into dust

I’ve conquered my demons – these words I shout
But now what do I write poems about?

My Parents

I help my mother with the week’s shopping
It’s from me that she knows what we all need
I get out the food she needs for shopping
Whilst she drives me around at top speed
When I tell a joke she thinks it’s funny
And she encourages all my writing
My father and I like to watch TV
We find the action movies just the thing
I help in his acts of home improvement
And he teaches me all about driving
We both go up mountains of steep ascent
And spend the weekends going kayaking

No, I don’t hate my parents – like I should
Because one day they’ll both be gone for good

Make Me Smile

My love, you will always be beautiful
You will never tarnish, decay or fade
Deep within my heart you will always rule
You bring in light where once was only shade
My love, you will always make me happy
You’ll always pick me up when I’m down
Your mere presence makes me want to be me
And to see no reason to wear a frown
My love, together always we should be
Regardless of what anyone else might say
It has and always will be you, you see
I wouldn’t have it any other way

My love, I want always to be with you
Because no one else can do what you do
