  • Eternal Sunshine

    That moment when someone steps into your life and completely overwhelms you. You tried building a wall to keep others out but then along pops a soul who breaks through the barriers with ease. You tried to make yourself out of stone, but she came along and made you melt like a snowman beneath a… Read more

  • Are You Awake?

    All those freaks. Those fucked up losers trying to cling to things that aren’t even there. Lost and weak. Heads full of stupid ideas. Hearts full of love with nowhere to go. Always fearful. Always regretting what can’t be undone. So many mistakes. So many wrong turns. But where’s the fun in fitting in? Where’s… Read more

  • Chance

    there’s something in her style of beauty the way she carries herself so naturally to think a grown man could be so giddy to think someone so subdued could feel so pure yet you haven’t seen her the colour of her eyes the truth of her smile it’s in the way she moves in the… Read more

  • Tell Me What You See Inside

      When you tear away from what you don’t need, let me know what you see inside. Picking scabs just won’t do. Peel back all of your flesh and let me in. Let me catch a glimpse of the secrets you keep so well hidden. Eclipsed by misery no longer, give me a chance to… Read more

  • Heartbreaker

    She sings of depth perception in my viewing lens. She watches as her cigarette bounces in the rain. There’s sadness in her eyes, and untold fire in her belly, and I imagine her lying next to me, sprinkling secrets on my pillow. The shades drawn, she’s hidden in my arms. Soundless shapes, eclipsed by highways… Read more

  • Be What You Want

    Life is a series of accidents. Some good, some bad. The stuff we plan is usually boring. Things to pass the time of day. Things to occupy ourselves, to take our minds off more meaningful subjects. Y’know, love and death. The heavy shit. Everything I’ve ever planned has been half-hearted. Nothing has ever interested me… Read more

  • Some Kind Of Lover

    I barely even know her, yet she’s set my heart alight we might be worlds apart, yet she’s got me in her grip as natural as rain as natural as sin she blinks and blows smoke into thin grey sky natural like a woman seductive and sensual without even trying in just a glance she… Read more

  • La Tristesse Durera

    Everything is so hopelessly beautiful. The sadness in the air. The dying of leaves and coming of winter. Romance in the fabric of heavy curtains. In the cigarette smoke that dances in warm sunlight. Being and nothingness. Solitude so sweet. Weak and fragile like a butterfly. It’s not a sin to be small. Not a… Read more

  • Violator

    Girl got a grin on her lips. All doe-eyed and cute. Butter wouldn’t melt. But it does. In her hand and on her belly. My insides burn as she squeezes tight. She ignites the monster that resides behind these cold, blue eyes. Blurred images. Dented craniums. Flashing lights on the flesh of her thighs. Snakes… Read more

  • Fall Into My Arms

    Give yourself to the arms of fate. Let someone save you when you need saving most. Don’t be afraid to speak the words you hide inside. Don’t be afraid to open up for fear of being shunned. Be crazy with devotion. Love until it makes you sick. What’s the point in keeping it all in… Read more
