Headbutt
Headbutting life, dizzily I fail, the dog that walks beside me wags its ominous black tail, headbutt, headbutt no sense does prevail.
Scratching around, in this slightly disenchanted one-bedroom brain, an adolesce headbutt sees me sentenced to a life lived in vain.
Banged up in this grey matter, the cell doors repeatedly slamming shut, thinking of a way in life, that I can make the cut.
Meeting someone new, hard headed just like me, banging heads together, after nine months the two headbangers become a three.
Fighting through the days, crying babies and continuous nappy rash, the cost-of-living slaying us, shattering us like glass .
Banged our heads together, against life's proverbial brick wall, headbutt, headbutt this relationship inevitably would fall.
Filled this my new head space, inebriated, pretending I was free, the cerebral chord tangled chocking, the very life away from me.
Suffocated breathing I can barely draw a breath the Samaritans are on my speed dial, my life's apparently hanging from a thread.
Reborn I found some karma, meditation, from rock bottom did I rise, the weight of life's soapbox dramas no longer a surprise.
The continuum of the cycle, exposes that perpetuated forever myth, that banging heads together can somehow solve a rift.
Stuck between a rock and a hard place, is a space where I sometimes lay, domestic bliss avoids me a brick wall heads this way.
Cognitive thinking colours, playing out within my psychology, finding sensory measures to set this troubled upset mind of mine a free.
Intrinsically detached, social phobias, anxiety, paranoia on the peripheral, amongst the label's society hung, hang on me.
Hallucinations conspire, plotting every financial wrong turn, lessons in life are costly, apparently, I have no capacity to learn.
Natures genes are nurtured within this environment in my mind , skewed and tangled smiles and laughter temporarily I find.
Bludgeoned hope and happiness, in this gene pool I sink or swim, plundering and picking moments this hereditary mind won't win.
Headbutting life, dizzily I fail, the dog that walks beside me wags its ominous black tail, headbutt, headbutt no sense does prevail.
