Game of Shame

Game of Shame

The ringing of the bells
Are putting me through hell
Maxi bets are on
But they're singing the wrong song
Forty dollars in
"I want some free spins"
Now the food monies gone in
"Why did I have to sin !"

The funds are going down
I can not hear that sound
The jackpot going off
Pick the kids up or not ?
They should be OK
I'll only be ten minutes away
There's no room for my mood
I need to get food approved
It's empty inside, the cupboards that once thrived
All for that game
I shouldn't have played
The kids are suffering, yet another day
My insanity is thin
Reality sinks in

I can't seem to pass
This addiction that has last
I wish I could fight it
Set a match, and light it
Ashes to dust
It has to be a must
Get rid of this game
That makes me feel ashamed ...

A Life Without Love

Autumn blue flower,
I trace my bruises with it,
How soft its touch is.

Depression

Depression

In deep sombre thoughts,
I meet demons in disguise,
Of hope, love and peace.
