The Overreach

.Reading time 1 minute.
Does he really not see the overreach
That he seems to be here to teach
As he tries to control
And make me fall into a role
He never listens
And the teardrops glisten
From more eyes than mine
Just because the Light Sublime
Won’t bend to his will 
And he may have some skill
In moulding metal into a shape
But I will make my escape
Out the back door
You can’t call me yours anymore
Or ever again in the future
And the suture
Never healed the wound 
And sometimes I wonder if we’re all doomed
To die a death on the sand 
Just because no one can understand
Do I set a boundary line
And create a place you can’t design 
Into your map of what’s known 
I was once but now I’m grown

Not In A Million Years

.Reading time 2 minutes.
Not in a million years or any version of reality
Could life replace what you mean to me 
And I know I was mad on the phone
A passionate Aries all alone
As you fit me into the box
Of a woman in need of locks 
So I rebel, rebel 
And tell you to go to hell
Coz you don’t understand 
You’ve only ever been a man
And the status quo
Is not something I’d like to keep, so
I smash right through the walls you construct
And I don’t give any fucks 
A delectable female on the line
That only wants to make you mine
And I hear the silent pause
That doesn’t obey any laws
Or gravity
What do you think of me 
I shudder and the earth quake
I’m sitting in the room and I shake 
As I try to hold it all in
But I love, I love him
And I’m hearing voices in my head
One tells me to just go to bed
And rest and keep
The best of me for sleep
Let the softness ensue
And I remember that song came out too
That August but I felt nothing at all
Except like banging my head against the wall
And it is silent desperation as I wake at three
Think the devil is talking to me
And the lights all went out
It coincided with my doubt
So I ran to Jennai
How do I remember the name of the nurse 
That sprinkled sawdust on a golden hearse
That seems to carry my body from place to place 
While the demons just lay waste
To the life I used to know
You told me to just let go…
