Thats Life

Everybody turns on you at some point in life be it your friend, familiy or enemy


This can't be right !

In this world, were we born to fight ?

The good and evil, both of which lurk at night.

Thin skin


It is 

when we allow 

the broken voices

that whisper

inside our head

to grow twisted roots

under our thin skin

Empty Kettles

In this case, a rather long-winded debate on over a facebook post that ended with the other party basically saying "La-la, I can't hear you," reminded me of an axiom I once heard: "Empty...

You do not see shades between The black lines of your world It's either right Or it's a sin

Empty kettles Make the most noise I've heard said This is you

You shout your rules You...

Inside A Steel Box


Inside a steel box

walls, moving

towards their victim

me.

There's no escape 

from the horror, locked up

inside,

enclosed,
