Little girl
Go out and play
Spray a little colour
To keep the blues
At bay.

Maybe today is the day when your job will suck a little less than it usually does.

-

I would rather feel pain,
than nothing at all.

-

I am scared
Of oblivion
I am scared
Of mediocrity
I am scared
Of being insignificant
I am scared
Of a lot of things
I am scared of fading into dust
Having accomplished nothing
I feel like I have been rotting
So caught up between
Trying to be functional and normal
Caught up between opinions
Of what’s good and bad
Trying to breathe
Without having it misinterpreted
Just to get some work done
I need to stop bothering
About what you will think
Anyway.

-

I found love
Not in another person
But within
And in the people
Who stay
And listen
And love
And let you sit in silence
Cigarettes after cigarettes
Beer after beer
Different stories
Same frustrations
Year after year

-

Stress

-

Every Street I walk on
Is tainted
With memories
Of us

I think about you
Every time it rains
And when it doesn’t
I find excuses
To think about us.

-

Recent thoughts and observations about adulthood,

-

Get on that train
Wearing my favourite gown.
With my face painted
Like a scary clown.

Get on that train,
And never get down.

-

I m trying,
Really hard.
To think
Of something
To write about.

But I don’t want
To write about something,
Depressing.
Like my inability
To do something,
That used to bring me
Immense joy.

It is really hard
Especially when
You are in
Your mid twenties
Trying to balance everything
But that’s why I crave it
Even more.

To burst out a croaked tune
And start dancing, when it rains.
Buy a one way ticket
For an unknown town.

Get on that train
Wearing my favourite gown.
With my face painted
Like a scary clown.

Get on that train,
And never get down.
