Waking up to a thousand songs

each hour, they chime and sing,

I knew they would never sing again 

if there was no new day to bring

.

They mark the time with beak and wing

its slow passing now my desire;

forever bound to their floating song, 

forever bound to their charming fire

There is nothing more hopeful than the delicate touch of rain amongst a thunderstorm of clouds.

Strained and wanting

I simmer below the surface,

a thousand pieces of light

stretched thin and glaring

piece together my skin,

thoughts rumbling through

troubled waters, fine lines

and wasted moments,

preoccupied with nothing

Overthinking

I dream in hurried whispers

frantically calling for settled peace

amongst troubled thoughts

and empty seats

crowded by a droning babble

forever in a constant struggle

I claim only ease

in my own troubled company

watching their restless words

clamour for attention

over nothing but an empty dream

Midsummer

I feel laden with unsaid dreams

spilling over my hair, my feet

walking through a daylit night

full of sparkling stars and troubled sleep

I'll listen for a while

but soon I'll start writing

the air absorbs my words

whispered ink, floating, swirling

a thousand voices silently churning

a brilliant light that clouds the senses

drowning in heady daydreams

and forgotten thoughts.

'I'm sorry, what did you say?' I'll say politely.

Passing Thoughts

I’m sat here at the kitchen countertop

my laptop on a chopping board

watching my mother's jam pot

simmer away the plums and sugar - 

I’m here to stop it boiling over.

It has already done it once 

the sticky pink liquid has become

stained glass on the hob cooker

it hasn’t reduced much

so I might be here just a little while longer

Kaltes Licht

Stimmen, die zu dir sprechen

Stimmen, die über dich sprechen

Doch wer spricht mit dir

und wer hört dein Schweigen?

Wer liest deine Sätze,

und wer zwischen den Zeilen?

Künstliche Lichtstrahlen

- Zittern in beleuchteter Dunkelheit

Automaton Heart

My hands move with no purpouse

My soul walks the earth, animated by a machine in my mind

I cried myself to sleep

I no longer sleep

No decision-making stops me from trying to find happiness

My conscience has left my body

My gears turn as my body withers away

The oil blood runs through my veins

No heavenly being watches me and no hell bound creature stalks me

I am forever alone

I am forever a husk
