Modern warfare

Belfast, childhood memories tore down Replaced with air BnBs. City centre, car parks and office blocks as far as the eye can see. No more 5 lighters for a £1 and teley. Replaced with shooting up in full view And homeless litter the ground for all to see. The bargain stores put the prices up, No bargains here, Just heart break and misery. Wiped out to block out The under funded mental health team. A&E under pressure, She cut her wrists, They say go home, someone will call in 48 to 24 hours That isn't good enough, We can all agree. They say the drugs have secret ingredient To make them more addictive. That secret ingredient Is misery, heart break and no end To be seen. politicians blame them'ums, And we can't see, We are them'ums. We are the lost, Forget colours, Forget tribes. Forget football teams.

I wished someone would love me

Depression kills, But nobody cares. Got to catch up on love island. Got to catch up on the house work. Aniexty kills your motivation. But the doctors too busy to listen, So take these tablets and go for a walk, Eat well, and get plenty of sun. But keep it to yourself and don't bother anyone. Depression not real, Sure give yourself a shake and get out for some fresh air. It's all in your head, Don't worry about your broken heart. If you are feeling bad speak to someone. If you go to the doctors, be honest and tell everything. You can't get help if you don't say what you are thinking. Even if it is really bad. The first step is saying it out loud. Be honest and get the help you need.

Aniexty

Past lives, Stranger then fiction. A work in progress, A stranger in the street, A face lost in the crowd, A firm handshake and a kiss goodbye, It's not too late. And here comes the awkward moment. Another round, What about shots? A nervous foot, A even more nervous heart.

The meds don't work, But the side effects do. I heard you crying in your room. I didn't want to disturb you, Scared what you might do. Unfortunately the meds don't work But the side effects do. You told the doctor They said you should go for a walk. Get a hobby so you won't be bored. That would be great, Though the meds don't work, But the side effects do. You put on weight, And feel like there is Nothing other then sleep to get you through. The meds don't work, But the side effects do. Scared to tell someone, Scared what they may think of you. They got their own problems A million and one things to do. So keep it to yourself Because the meds don't work But the side effects do. Never be scared to talk about issues. Ask for help, see if someone can recommend a doctor or help. Unfortunately, due to the current situation we are being left and alot of people need help. If things get bad there is always someone who will listen. The first step of healing is admitting the problem, then to tackle it

Help the less fortunate

melancholy, Sadness is my new hobbie. I don't sleep so well, Not that you'd care. And I'm not keeping so well, I wish that you'd care. I wonder could I still make you laugh, If you were here. And the smaller the pieces Of a broken heart, The easier to give away and share. Til given away to anyone, For a broken promise of loveless romance, With no second chance. No future plans.

Slow down

Life is like a gram, Over too quick. Best make it two, This weekend we are going to get lit. I jumped in the deep end And I can't swim. But that is okay Because we all float down here, any way. Slow down, You got to live for more then the weekend. You drank your first drink like shot, And the second hit the spot.

A family size bucket please

I'm here just blowing my nose. Because nobody knows what I get up to, Apart from the pup. But he is easily bribed, With a treat, or a walk. So he will never tell, Why my nose is so blocked. He won't tell my secrets. My loneliness, My broken smile, My memories of us All gone when you left. All the good times And the bad. It's hard when you don't Have that one to remember them with. And it's funny, How certain things remind me of you, A song, a joke, Or maybe just a flash back of something we would do....
