Shifting Skies
I remember the days where there was nothing I could do. It felt like my brain had the foggiest of flus. Days and nights that I spent awake; Trying to encourage the lost quake. Instead, I was forced into dismissal. The darker the place, the brighter the light. They say that I died. But I…

Black, Blue, True
Staring darkness in the face, I’m trying to see how it found its place. Torment, crying. Learning, applying. I’m facing my fears, I’m accepting my faults. Throw what you want my way, I’ll catch it; I am here to stay. I’ve blinded myself from energy. I’m black, I’m blue. I’m white, I’m true. I’m whimpering,…

Warm Like A Fleece
You’re a beast. I’ve hit insanity. I must release. This anger, My scarcity. It’s electricity, But you see, it could be simplicity. Leave me alone. Leave me to breathe. You’re too much to deal with; A walking profanity. He gave me hope, He helped me release. I was a ball of anger, However we lived…

I
I am a pane of glass. Vulnerable. Breakable. I am damaged. I am young. I hold hope. I feel despair. I crave stability. I win chaos. The key is me. Life is the lock. I fell helplessly, I roar my pain. I’m shattered. Broken. Tainted. You used me. You took advantage of me. My heart out…

Rocks Hold Me Down
I rise, Rocks hold me down. Encasing my feet, They got me in deep. Somewhere… Somewhere. There is sunshine. There is light. Suffering? I do not deserve. Malice? I do not wish for. Peace? I wish. Me? I want to be happy. The truth I must speak But nothing shall surpass my lips. Wholly, reliable.…

The Weight I Forgot to Feel
The pain. Unbearable. But I don’t even know that it’s there. The sadness, it seems to be the norm. Who am I? What am I doing here? Where am I going wrong? What am I enjoying? What do I want? You see… It’s simple. Before you, is a puzzle. You have the key. You control.…

The Reconditioning
This piece is raw.It came from a time when I felt trapped and broken.If you’re here, I hope it helps you feel seen — and reminds you that healing is possible. Trapped. Controlled. Abused. Neglected. Used. Manipulated. Deceited. Demolished. Heartache. Desperation. Sorrow. Hopelessness. Empty. Floating. Sinking. Sliding. Falling. Hiding. Hoping. Destroyed… Humiliation. Determination. Nervousness. Afraid.…

I Rise
Encased. Suffocating. Destruction. Suffering. I hid, I fled. Shields up, We protect… Our minds; The torture is envigorating. Pain heals, pain controls; The strength and power to which you move forward. You will not defeat me, I rise. I conquer. Let’s Go

Roots and Wind
The wind is suffocating, my thoughts… eradicated. There is nothing, yet everything. It encompasses me fiercely, I’m stuck at an empty crossroads, battling inside. I wear my armour, I wage war, I take up arms. Stop me, you shan’t, industrial strength, yet soft like a duck feather pillow. Funny how nature grounds me, yet also…

After the Ashes
“Don’t wanna lose me, don’t go and screw me”, listen to my words cos that’s what they said Don’t wanna school me, supposed not to fool me, left here on the floor me, feeling kinda poor me Labels they spewed: “we’ll kill”, they cruise, worn out dead fuse, now it’s either booze or bruise Born…

Here’s to the Future
I was carelessly promised the world, I trusted and ended up entrapped in wire. The cold wind hugged my face, like sugar coats my lips; effortlessly. I can’t deny the longing feeling, though bad, it always left me gleaming. It’s a dog eat dog world, leaving our emotions denied the opportunity to be unfurled. The…

Road to Recovery
The road to recovery Fuck me it’s painful man I go through so many ups and downs My brain yo-yoing from clown to crown The winner of today’s mentality? Who knows I’ll wake and see who turns up. Respectability or instability? My mental state is not a joke, it’s a struggle I’ve been trying to…

Parting Ways
The rain is coming down, and normally, I feel blue too. But today? Today feels different; I’m sporting a glowing hue. I am ready for the next step. I am ready for the new. I have parted ways with the black sea. I am parting ways with the old me. Let’s Go Follow us for…

Walking In My Lane
Drizzling rain,It doesn’t feel unrehearsed. I’m feeling your pain,And I’m giving your love a wide berth. You only cause me blame and shame,So why should I listen to your curse? I’m now walking in my lane,Your story is one, I no longer rehearse. Let’s Go

I Take A Pledge
On this day, I take a pledge:I place my self respect on top shelf. I hear myself and know my worth;Giving space and allowance to heed my birth. Gone in the wind, returned by the Sun,My dark, my goodness, all’s been upturned. Thanks to the Nature,I can now breathe… In freshness and in love,Releasing all…
