This this momentI might have dreamt about it and I can’t believe it’s happeningas your hand runs down my arm You whisper a husky ‘Finally’in my ear The moment is finally here and our clothes fall like rain on the floor I’ve been thinking of youof us for monthsI’ve been imagining your tremor-inducing touch Your kiss on my neck, hand onContinueContinue reading “Beyond Expectation”

Losing Faith (with audio)
I’m losing faith in humanity… A man has an affair while his wife goes through menopausefucking a woman twenty years younger thinking he’s a hero for staying married A ‘Christian’ spews hate from their mouth condemning anyone who lives differently while loudly proclaiming God is love A woman sits with her friends gossiping about another poison filling the air while sheContinueContinue reading “Losing Faith (with audio)”
Other Lives
I dream I drift away from here into undiscovered worlds and people I’ve never seen I ache, I smile I travel new roads to careers I’ve never hadand lovers I’ve never imagined I open, I grow without moving an inch the letters on the page a doorway to other lives

The Warrior’s Prayer (with audio)
Battle-beaten upon thy knees Hollowed out by broken dreams Beneath the stone the way is lost and soul is turned towards the cross Renew the path ignite the lightgive strength to boneand heal the blight From humble petition to glory rise Fire awakens in opened eyes Renewed with faith to fight again Praise be to God forever, amen
Distraction
You distract me and I’ll distract you from all of the shit we’re both going through And although this distraction’s a little bit mad but I’d much rather this than perpetually sad
Old Notebooks
