House of Cards

my life is a house of cards
one wrong move and it will all tumble
i must be careful in everything i do
no matter what i can't fumble

i may stand tall, but i am fragile
one gust of wind and i will have to begin again
i cannot escape from this dark haunted jail
somehow i will though, but i don't know when

ace
king
queen
jack

they fall on top of me
they suddenly crash

hearts break
clubs snap
diamonds shatter
spades collapse

red
black
red
black
red
black
red
black

a tornado of cards
they swirl in front of me
my life has crashed down now
it is gone completely

thanks a lot, Queen of Hearts
nice going, Mad Hatter
seriously? you're all so cruel
couldn't help out Alice; not even with a ladder

i'll just fall into this pit;
this never ending hole
i'll just disappear forever;
i hope that was your goal.

I need a break. When everything becomes too much to able on you're on edge: just waiting for that one word, one action to push you over… but it doesn't.

My Mind

I’m fighting hard; I’m trying my best, Trying to find myself apart from the rest. My mind is crazy it’s certainly not a place to be Once you enter the light again you will never see.

Russian Roulette

How do you know if something is wrong. When your mind becomes a game of simple roulette. Where its pain filled like the game of Russian roulette. A game to win, lose or die.

Reflections

I'm sick of reflections. I've smashed all the mirrors. But the images keep projecting. Someone I don't recognise. Even the reflection from my phone. Seems to tease my mind.

Stuffy

Cotton wool head full of fluff, Cotton wool head that's enough.

Anxiety's Spell

Anxiety wrapped around my neck, Like a necklace. Swing, hit & a miss. Tightening around my throat, Taking the breath from my lungs. Until I choke. Angels cried, the devil's sung.
