The embers and remnants Of what has now passed Leave me in turmoil Could this breath be my last?   The stories I could tell you The images, real Living in the moment Born just too feel   I've been too the edges Of all that is dark I've tasted the sweetness As it fell on my lap   Now I am here In front of your eyes Will you express laughter Or drop tears Will you cry?   I am the future I have been the past I recall misadventure I revel in the craft   Of being only human In feeling, in form Sometimes, correctly   Occasionally   Well   Wrong     AGL 

When you noticed I was gone Did you howl up to the moon When you realised I had passed Which memories Were built to last When you see me next Will we embrace After the decades Between then and now Will you know who I am Recognise My now young face I have studied every move you have made Whenever I've been near Rest assured There is nothing to fear Your heart is pure It is so clear My pride rips through Negativity disappears Don't worry now About what has to come When life has ebbed The earthly tide has turned Discomfort leaves A feather like kiss No breath to take No straining heaves Struggling to escape A throat as it quakes I am with you every step I have watched you as you sleep Your dreams are your own Wishes too make The important thing is That you never forget You are who you are because of me I offered you kindness You took it away I offered you love A heart like sponge When sadness caused grief Making up was fun In the su

Beyond the light On the edge of darkness A hope remains The hands of kindness As they reach towards me I feel their comfort Friends for now Tomorrow Sadness The thorns in life that cause my pain Relent, but only When they refrain From offering me The slings that hurt me The tears once gentle Now flowing freely I am I You are you I'll never say words In the hope that I'd wound If you decide to play that way You might die lonely Me I am not afraid The light grows stronger As I open my eyes My wings will lift me Up into the skies The ground below will never scar me If soaring above It cannot touch me.

When I kiss her   I'm in the alley By the Bar-point pub   When I'm with her Passion flows As freely The waters from a flood   Beside her The heat Intense Lying next to her So snug   Her She is the woman Who has given me Her everything and more   When I kiss her A taste Familiar on her breath The sweetness of the heavens An intoxicating drug   She Will be here with me Until the end of time Our bodies may get older But our lives Forever will be Gloriously   Entwined   AGL

 Despite my confusion In spite of myself A respite from those delusions All is not well One short step from the edge of hell Burning amid the fires of fury Deemed guilty By the righteous jury Never again seeing the light of the day Incarcerated Here to stay It all started out so well Mothers love Fathers chest swelled Abandoned by the age of five My only wish A dream  To thrive Here I sit In my eight by twelve Nobody Is entitled to see, inside My thoughts are my own I am in control Simply existing Within this bleak cell I'll be here until my end of days Not one person Visiting Here I must stay The mind of the killer Sees only one truth Images of horror filling my head AGL
