struggling and fighting
breaking free
from the chains
voices in my head
telling me you are no good
holding me back
screaming and shouting
at me to remain
imprisoned by my thoughts
pulling at my strings
tied down by
my inner demons
as I roam the streets
searching for peace
where there is none

if I am not here
I have left
this world
planet earth
looking for
Mars and Venus
a sign from
the unworldly
how to live
as human being
not an alien
amongst strangers
roam the streets
searching for
meaning of life
screaming and
shouting at the
top of my lungs
as the darkness
creeps into
my soul tears
of blood dripping
down my chin
colouring my heart
with fear and pain
an omen of war
another manifestation
that if I am not here
I have left

Lurking in
the shadow
the face of fear
it is twisted
and contorted
like an old
decrepit tree
a life lived
weathered by
wind and rain
the storm
of the seasons
turning into
a hurricane
making havoc
and destruction
tears of blood
running down
their faces as
aliens roaming
the streets
searching for
innocence and
virtue instead
dread and horror
around every
corner hiding
in the twilight

love and pain
hand in hand
crave it
seek it
embrace it
like a house
on fire
the flames
licking the walls
melts away
all fences
embodies the
whole being
the tingling
feeling
the excitement
and expectation
as it fills
my aching body
unable to breathe
a tunnel
filled with smoke
longing to feel
the warmth
the smell and
taste of you
your arms around
me as your strength
holds me tight
your longing
for my warm lips
my scent as I
whisper in your ears

Blanche - 3. December 2017

afraid of death
afraid of living
hiding in the shadow
amongst the zombies
roaming the garbage
fighting the rats
scurrying cockroaches
feeding of the crumbs
decaying bodies
smell of fear and blood
dripping down the
brick wall colouring
everything red
a silent scream
