Ghost
The ghosts are creeping up on every side
no where to run, no where to hide
No where solitary where I can be free
Is there no place, no space to be me.
Their stark, dark, bark.
Their whispers,
Their accusing stares and glances
Pierce a hole in my heart.
Blood flows, ruby lava.
You don't know me anymore
Leave me alone.
Tie me down.
Throw knives at me.
I'm not iron, not stone,
Not solid anymore.
I'm soft, I could melt.
Don't make me sweat.
You'll all go mad
when I cry my mercury tears.
You're all ghosts.
Ghosts from the past.
Please don't haunt me, taunt me.
The scars are fragile now.
They bleed if you touch them.
Don't go near
For fear
of death.

Blade
He was the blade that I held in my hand
He controlled my evil thoughts, hopes and dreams
He was the rope that wrapped me up
in his sharp and dangerous ways.
All the time I worshipped him,
He my God, my Satan, my sun.
I would have sacrificed my life for him.
All he had to do was speak.
He gave me so many tears, so much pain
that one dark day.
I waited for hours, in the pouring rain
but he never came.
He was the knife that slit my throat
the blood that rolled down my neck
he was the pain that killed me
He was the final chapter of my end.

Goldmining
Digging a hole
Deep and wide,
A nice big hole
To crawl in and hide.
Away from the world
No-one will find me,
Digging for gold,
The gold inside me
Find my fears,
My hopes and dreams,
Discover my tears
That flow down in streams.
Sitting alone, discovering my soul
meeting the me
That hides in this hole.

Murder in the House
There's a scream in the house
In the middle of the night.
It pierces the deadly silence.
Then suddenly -
All is quiet once more
She sat alone
In the middle of the night
Her scream pierced the deadly silence
As she made the fatal incision.
And blood flowed, like stream of hot lava
She lay alone
In the middle of the night
Her stone cold body
limp and congealed with blood
Free from her claustrophobic thoughts.
There's a scream in the house
At the morning sunrise
As her lover walks into the room
And finds her pale lonely body
bathed in the scarlet tide.

Over the bridge to hell.
Lovestruck, Starstruck
till Cupid's arrow pierced
my longing heart,
my lonely soul.
Which bleeds
Bleeds painfully
each droplet
similar to the tears that
stream from my eyes.
This unrequited love.
Which make my soul ache.
In a love hate relationship
with love and hate.
Hating love,
Loving hate.
It's not too late
To decide my fate.
The water rushes beneath me
the babbling stream
taunting me.
mocking my predicament.
I take the leap of faith.
Smack. Face to face
with love and hate once more.

Tonight's the Night
Too long I drank
the devils blood
Too long I fed
on deceit and lies.
Days I have wandered
with this stake through my heart.
This vampire had the will to live
But the fire will burn on
Now this phoenix cannot
rise from the ashes.
Every horse has it's prime.
And mine went sour too soon.
It never learnt to fly.
The ground always to close
the world never on it's side
I was dragged down to meet my fears.
The skull in which this mind
struggled with itself
through desperate days
and lonely nights
Is no longer a home
but a derelict house over which
unwholesome sorts
trample and crash.
Forgetting, disrespecting.
But then,
Why respect?
Why now?
The life is rancid.
And I am gone away.
Tangled, Strangled, Dangled
