      Shadows

      Passive words cut deep but they don’t shoutThey whisper in a room where no one doubtsInvisible daggersThey glide and fallSlicing through the silenceSlicing through us all Oh the shadows speak when the lights go dimInvisible projections crawl from withinPluralized but...

      • Powerful work. Tremendous.

      • “We clone our fears
        Copy-paste the pain
        Pouring out the doubts like drops of rain
        Lessened by the scars we quietly bear
        Weakened by the reasoning we wouldn’t dare”

        Powerfully penned, Drieks. Excellent lyrics my friend, that verse I quoted, is so raw and authentic. Amazing arrangement that enhances these amazing words. I’m a fan. Appreciate you.

      • The lyrics and voice breathe in that space between hope and desolation, where very few are self-aware enough to tread. A glittered gift you possess. May I ask of your music influences? Without music the world dies.

        • Thank you Ghosteen! I couldn’t agree more! Music is a necessity.
          We need water, food, oxygen, love and music!
          My music influences are very broad. For this particulair piece i’d say Sia was the main influence.
          In general, my influences come from pop, hip-hop, dance, rock, EDM and propably some more i can’t think of right now haha.

          • Listen to some Nick Cave, Mazzy Star and the Cocteau Twins. If you can replicate the latter’s incomprehensible & ethereal voice & lyrics, I shall make a donation to an animal and children’s charity. Keep on keeping on. “Life imitates art far more than art imitates life.” As some bloke called Wilde once scribbled. Respect – not in the way uttered by a gangsta’ rapper. Not my thang. But genuine, UK respect.

      • This song hits me differently when I feel so tired and head is pounding from the beginnings of a migraine. Its like I can feel
        this line “Oh the shadows speak when the lights go dim, Invisible projections crawl from within”
        This is a great write

        • Very relatable unfortunately. Migraines can take control over so many things all at once.
          Thank you for your kind words Fia. 🙏🏻

    • The Soldier

      I've been a soldier all my lifeserved with honour,behind enemy lines.Fought ferocious battleswith limited weapons.Captured and tortured—more than once.Escaped my tormentors—more than once.Recaptured—more than once.Changed and scarred;fighting does that to you.Tired beyond tired,ageing rapidly,seeking peacebefore death.It’s confession time:my enemy...

      • On going battle. Interesting work here.

      • Powerfully penned, Peter. Excellent write my friend. Life often feels like a constant circle to me, everything eventually comes back around. This write made me think of that again, so thank you. Amazing work. Appreciate you.

        • Thanks Damian for your considered comment.
          I try not to over complicate or force my writing.A thought just arrives ( at strange moments) that needs to be explored.
          For example, while waking this morning I had a simple thought which I haven’t quite been able to expand on…’what is actually real’…might have to work on this one.

      Lamplight

      Everyday is a dark day  I can't see the sunshine  I've been living by lamplight  For much to long   I don't know my own name  I don't know where I'm going  I don't know who I am Or where I was   Everyday is a dark day  I can't...

        • Thanks for your motivational words. Feeling like a vampire. Yes it gets very gloomy at times. We lose an hour of light in the UK in winter and the clouds block out the sun, and its damp and cold and…

      Your Abyss

      I look into your tear-some eyes with profundity. I scout with a penetrating gaze and see your realm of watery graves.   Those eyes of yours are the gates, beyond the reeking eyes is an abysmal mind.   The anguish welled within, there I meet you to bathe...
