Prison of Mind

In a prison
not of steel nor brick.
In a World
too cruel and sick.

In my bed
I lie alone.
In a house
with no one home.

In the dark
with no lights lit.
In this chair
alone I sit.

No birds sing
where I reside.
In the dark
where I hide.

A breath of life
is all I need.
But all my prayers
no one heeds.

My true love
is out of reach.
Like a vicar
that cannot preach.

One day perhaps
I shall be free.
But how and when
I cannot see.

So in this prison
I must be.
Until my love
can set me free.

I have not exactly frequented this part of the village, but I thought I'd post this I found on my computer.. wrote it a while back.

After a rest too short
Leaving for a week too long
I lie on my bed
With nothing but my sorrow for company

Not a life I’ve chosen
They cast this misery upon me.
I share it with a hundred others.
Yet I am all alone.

They took away all I love
Gave me little in return
They’re taking away my summer
And offering only a dark winter

All I have to hang on to
Is a faint hope of better days
But that hope grows weaker by the minute
My drowned cry for help goes unheard

There is one that can ease me
But we are miles apart
A gentle touch or smile can heal
What a lifetime of misery caused.

Grant this wish
Compensation for my pain
Cut the distance between us
Cut the cord that ties my misfortune to me.

The darker side of romantic love songs

Completely fictional, so don't call the cops just yet:

How I really feel

I have a dream, hope it comes through
It's about just me and you
If I had the power you would find
it could give me peace of mind.

When I'm walking down an empty street
you're the one I'd like to meet.
When you look into my eyes
A feeling inside - I must hide

I hope to get you all alone
Far away from telephones.
Tell you how I feel
Move in for the kill

I'd look deep into your eyes
Show you where my problem lies.
Wouldn't it be such a thrill
God I wish my eyes could kill

Down which hill did a small child roll,
(rolling, rolling, rolling he did stumble and fall)
Down which hill did a small child roll,
(roll little child, roll, roll, roll)

Down which hill did a small child roll, (Lead)
(slamming into bushes like a wild animal.) (Chorus - burly men)
Down the hill by the merry ol' creek
(First there was silence, then a lil' 'SQUEK')
The child had stopped, but what did it see
(it had landed in the middle of a badger family)

Down which hill did a small child roll,
(rolling, rolling, rolling he did stumble and fall)
Down which hill did a small child roll,
(roll little child, roll, roll, roll)

Down which hill did a small child roll,
(fastest little kid since the days of old)
down the hill, eating an ORANGE.
(erhm...)
Guess the songs over then?
(Sigh.. back to work)
