Sometimes I don’t even wanna talk to myself So writing these poems gets hard I want all the pigtail and gristle With no lard I want to fill these deep and plunging Silences Scream down my yard I want to burn my throat so abundantly My words are left smokey and charred I want to [...]

The Ruiner
Will I ever stop feeling like I’m Ruining your life? I strive to provide smooth glide But I’m bona fide sly When I realise that I Am making things difficult again And the slime of my crimes Engulfs all that I’ve dried From the saturation That comes after the downpours Of my cries I lie [...]
Surprises
He’s getting me surprises Afforded by enterprises I ain’t privy too, but I realised this: That he keeps me safe Holds me in the black of his iris So I’m never misplaced. I have two weeks To broil in an excitement With no shape. He’s getting me surprises Something I usually hate But the trust [...]
Thanks, Nashville

Innocent, Until
When the bad days outweigh the good Will you still tell me I’m brilliant? When the bad days outweigh the good Will your love stay resilient? When the bad days outweigh the good Will that comfort turn militant? When the bad days outweigh the good Will you still see me as innocent? By Lyric Deep.
Passion Fruit
If I was a food I’d be a passion fruit Because I feel everything Personally But I’d get eaten With cutlery For optimum Burst of seed I’d be pink in my blush But black pocked Underneath Still the beauty Of me At the market Will make you see The shine of skin Over the other [...]
Slug
This is just like drugs You make me feel so good So loved But that sobering moment Always comes And I’m struck by hard thumbs Turned to crumbs Strumming on blisters And numb tongues Wishing I wasn’t so Brutal on the up Cos now I slump In the dump Of heartstrings in the sun I [...]
Bobbly Bit
Like walking ducks and the carriage key tucks As trucks dance beside me I fuck with you highly Slyly I might be in luck As you chuck me a sloppy chance With a sloppy glance And I’m wearing the padlock like pearls She tells me to stop being awkward But I’m just one of those [...]
