Peace
Looked in the mirror shortly after i rose
Not quite sure i like what i see
A little bit of this, a touch of that and
Maybe i'll start to feel like me
Maybe i'll start to feel a little bit of glee
or maybe that's just me taking a leap
I need to get out from under this heap
I need to free myself before tears start to seep
Then they'll all start to say, girl please!
Get a grip

Only The Shadow Of Her Face
Oh, then we were inseparable
Nothing could keep us apart
Nights and days we revelled
We shared one loving heart
She's gone now, taken so quick
I watch in vain for some trace
But her spirit refuses to emerge
Only the shadow of her face
Its like her soul never existed
A mirage from the day we met
Did I dream the words of love
That entrapped me in her net?

Freedom At Last
Freedom At Last
Flames raged in the cornfields around it,

And the spattered markings of crows
Bleaching spots of ...

the whispers of the dead,
the footsteps leading a path to nowhere.
The silence of horror,
the selfishness, the selfless.
A place of no evil, a place of no light.
Where no man or woman will have sight,
where no man or woman will ha...

Actions vs Words
(I've been struggling to show anyone this poem for a long time but I've been inspired to let it free. These feelings are behind me now and it turns out writing was to thank for that afterall)
How does someone stop cutting?
Do they cut into the paper instead?
Replace flesh and blood with diaries and ink,
Replace physicality with mentality,
Replace actions with words,
It isn’t enough.
