Your tears shred my souls as 

shards of glass that rip through

tender flesh,

leaving my spirit gushing pain

like blood from an unchecked wound.

Only your smile can stem the flow

Where's the fucking rizlas man?
I just need a fucking smoke
to take the edge of
starting with just one almighty toke
this week's been shit. I have to say

Inside something special grows,
Takes a while before it shows.
Tiny, magical, growing at first,
Later months it nearly bursts.
Wriggling butterflies flutter inside,

“Be grateful for the light”,

my mum would say.

I remember that

“Because, without it

the dark will never go away

I had a son -

someone like him came

to visit me -

but he was not the same,

because m...
