Living on the Spectrum

My mind is constantly whirring

with thoughts, worries and concerns.

The time spent with my obsessions

is the only time my mind is clear

 

Every time I am touched it hurts. it feels like fire running through me

 

I quickly become overwhelmed.

I feel like blocking the world out.

Try putting my thoughts back in order.

rocking to assess which feelings are mine

 

Every time I am touched it hurts. it feels like fire running through me

 

Reality is confusing, a mass of events,

people, places, sounds and sights

routines, routes, times and rituals

help to keep order in a constant chaos

 

Trying to keep everything the same reduces some of the terrible fear

speaking to myself to block out other sounds.

Then I know which thoughts are mine.

 

Every time I am touched it hurts feels like fire running through me

Every time I am touched it hurts feels like fire running through me

Refugee

 

It is time to leave can't take it no more

My house has been strafed bomb's torn off the door

I'm leaving now there's no turning back

With the cash in my pants the clothes on my back

 

The boat sank in Greece where I wanted to flee

Life vests and bodies is all I see

I couldn't prove I was a refugee

So I was returned to Turkey for a small fee 

Don't wanna be a refugee

cos i would not fight they'd have killed me

Don't want to be a refugee

A beggar in a country that don't want me

 

Razor fences no way to Hungary

Detention centres in Germany

Out of sight and out of mind

Yesterday's news the media are blind

 

Tens of thousands, maybe more , L

Looking for some peace from civil war

Europe sees us as human trash

But here we are no turning back
