Meticulous in Spirit

Fragmented particles

Eyes fluttering

Butterfly spirit lives

Pacified patience

Scattered souls

Drifting like wood

In lonely oceans

Trust obliterated

By a self destructive force

To push you as far as oblivion

So you would want nothing

To do with me

To never see me

I would create that

Scenes of carnage

As love unfolds

And the fear created

In those veins

From a brain

Channelling another universe

Of sound

None of this was necessary

Obsession is an understatement

Which would never have

Happened

If I saw you

Chilled

Cool

Easy

Freedom

I see them

The people I fall for

My first love

My second love

They’re my friends

It’s easier, better

But they’re nothing like you

I guess I’ve never done anything like this before

You think you know

Me

That isn’t me

That is a manifestation

Of someone broken

Due to lack of connection

Starved of the energy

I need to keep going

Safety

You wouldn’t even understand

How dangerous it’s been

How scary it can get

Fear me?

Fear my words?

You wouldn’t if you knew me

If you were my friend

You might come to understand

Who I am

Not the person you think I am

‘Keep her at bay’

‘How do you deal with rejection?’

Boy, you do like to test us

But I don’t blame you

With that mind of yours

Look up to the wisdom of

The giraffe

She might make you laugh

Tiny Alice

Bouncing around

Through the letterbox

And down to the sea

Feel nothing for her

Good

Don’t you see how safe that is

For me
