felix paintwhenpainted Poems

swimming, swimming, swimming
in the middle of the sea
certainly not winning
mind down on its knees
...

in the dark
of a burnt out park
lie the hearts of a few
wandering what to do
...

do you hear those voices? listen to them scream.
cant you see the words trying to escape from my bottled up dreams?

i woke up one morning
...

Sweep. Can you hear my horrid cape?
I am the devil of the broken hearts
Start running. Maybe pleading. Escape
I am the creature behind hopeless starts
...

here lies a sea of graves
but atop it was a city pave
a city which sings and swells
simmers, glows and smells
...

one
unemployment in the ton
two
infrastructure worn through
...

On the patchy gravel you park your brand new van
The door is opened for you then closed with a wham

Welcome to my humble abode
...

Watch. Closely. The fall of an Empire
Consumed. Suddenly. By a mindless Fire
Shaky ground. No Love to be Found
Listen to the forgotten. Can you hear the Crumbling Sound?
...

to be a man
glory of the land
to do what they require
to sweat and perspire
...

today
I went out to play
with my new friend
I went to give Henry his end
...

we saw it falling from the skies
the infernal end of our lives
flaming hateful things
born on dripping bleeding wings
...

12.

befriending each others faces
or just sticking with our own races
process begins
as we knit our rings
...

Daar waar die berge vou
Is waar die mense hulle geheime hou
Tussen bruin klippe
En water in stukke
...

you are high
as a kite in the sky
and one day when you no longer fly
you will fall to the earth, buh-bye
...

what do the sailors say when your sailing to the moon
aye-aye captain astronaut, we'll be there soon
which way do we sail, which way in the sky?
right above, past the gull's cry
...

behold the ancient metallic monstrosity!
eaten by rust with fierce ferocity!
a machine, ladies and gentleman!
nothing more, constructed to an engineers plan!
...

fingers burnt
lessons learnt
but say goodbye to happily ever after
bow down to the flaming master
...

Waiting. for the end of time
Listening. to the muffled hyme
Sitting. on a comfy chair
Watching. everything with a stare
...

one day i had a dream while asleep
of paint that did drip dropp and creep
down stairs and concrete
out the door and into the street
...

The Best Poem Of felix paintwhenpainted

Swimming

swimming, swimming, swimming
in the middle of the sea
certainly not winning
mind down on its knees

waves towering and high
tattered wet suit
ocean as deep as the sky
drifting without an escape route

fish biting feet into shards
tearing off fingers
soon to be just another skeleton in the ocean bed graveyard
nothing but bones and suit lingers

got lost in the ocean
just as was chosen
