On paper.



God I feel shit.
Dear God

I've just had a piss.
You relieve the pain in my heart.

I'm not rhyming now.
Come into my life.

Nothings going to cum of it anyway.
Brighten my soul so that I can reach your pink sky.

Its not going to sky rocket.
Allow me to touch the collective of your mind.

Its not going to go viral.
Let me be a side to you that cannot be erased.

Even if it did I wouldn't give a fu$k.
Bless me with gracious dreams

I'd just expect them all to sky rocket.
Raise my gifts so I may loan a trinket from your night sky.

Then feel worse because idve been ungrateful.
Uplift my path that this hill may touch the floor of heaven.

Bit#h.
Holy lord God on high

Why am I here anyway?
Let me fulfil my purpose, beyond class and crass word.

Pull me out. Tag me out.
May time be patient on my footsteps.

Pointless fu$king game.
Every moment shines like a silver ring in a bed of golden caskets.

I'd rather be hated than loved.
Thank you for sharing my love with me.

Sometimes.
Through the dark times and the light times.

Why did you lock me in the washing machine as a kid?
Wrap me in your tender words.

You're doing it here!
I feel your miraculous works in me.

Locking me in a dark room every night.
Gentle sleep.

Having to turn on the light to reach the toilet.
See me safe in the light of your Godly soul.

All I'm doing is waiting,
experiencing is how to die.
My poem disintegrates in your hands.

How it feels to die.
Let me dissolve your fears

I can't be more honest than that.
Grant me honesty and devine truth.

Goodbye x
Never let me go.

Hope you like it.
Don't like it?
