Court Of Hopeless Cases

Wrestled with my conscience
tried to
keep it real
Simple curse of a
reckless life
my schemes
turn the wheel
Hit the bar
drained the glass
didn't count the cost
Blind believers
Self promoters
Nothing really lost
Self deceivers
Faith healers
preaching at my door
Rehab hunters
Habit flaunters
always wanting more
Star shaggers
Backstabbers
Sycophant or friend?
Winners, takers
Spinners, fakers-
too late to make
amends?

In my Court of
Hopeless Cases
I shall hold the key
Circus-master of
my own fear
I choose now
To be free.

For The Sad Man

Sad man sitting in the corner of shame, Sorry to say, but there's only you to blame. All the cats are now calling your name. I guess that's what you wanted, no shame. Little sad man, please have hope.

I've laughed,. I've cried,. I've made bad decisions,. I've cheated,. I've lied,. I've been to prison,. I've stolen,. I've abused,. I've lost my way in drugs,. I've fallen,. I've risen,.

Never, Better

It's a capital offence these days to tell the truth and not believe. I lay my secrets out on the table and hide my feelings underneath.

Addict

One more cut. Another burn. Just a sip more. I never learn. One more go. Just one last hit. I'll stop, I will. I can handle it. I don't need this. Can quit anytime. I'm perfectly okay.

Pills

I have an ugly red one, it works like Prozac; y'know the type they say makes you high as clouds, and also it has a side effect; you shop like a maniac. I can say I do feel high when I'm out to shop.

I like it😊

@Stablish Thanks-I'm glad. Wrestled with this one a little, & still tempted to tweak it😖 I shall refrain as knackered💤

@Fly10 Yeah it's sometimes is best to wait until you've been to sleep to tweak it. It's good tough. I've been struggling to even get started tonight hopefully I will feel more inspired tomorrow. Take care and keep up the good work😊

Im obviously knackered as well with all the spelling mistakes😉

I couldn't get my head in the right place until nearly midnight either. Often find that happens though-bloody frustrating. Reckon you're right re leaving it until I'm replenished😉 Re spelling mistakes, no worries-its a nightmare keying comments(predictive text does NOT help in this case). Keep up the writing & catch you tomo.

Like this. 😊

@leelee101 Thank you-appreciate it😌

@Fly10 Brilliant reading! Really enjoyed this:)

@SianRLD Thank you, appreciate the comment😊
