A 20-YEAR-OLD Gold Coast woman found dead alongside her former bikie ex wrote a heartbreaking poem and note fearing he could one day kill her.

The grieving mother of Shelsea Schilling, whose body was discovered on Friday afternoon in a Southport unit common area with that of ex-boyfriend Bronson Ellery, posted the dark passage to Facebook this morning.

Publication of the poem and note comes as police continue to keep an open mind about how the two deaths occurred, not ruling out a third party being involved.

Miss Schilling’s poem ends with:

“They think they’re living life right.

“All they want to do is win the fight.

“There’s people that act and people that do.

“People that follow through.

“Follow through with thoughts they have in their head.

“The type of thinking where people end up dead.”

A note along with Miss Schilling’s poem then says: “I’m sorry to be so negative but I want everyone to know that if I get hurt or die Bronson Ellery (person in picture) is responsible...”

Miss Schilling’s mother Bonnie Markwell Mobbs posted the full poem and note to her Facebook status this morning, adding: “Shelsea wrote this when Bronson was in jail and was scared for her life.

“Rest in peace my beautiful angel Shelsea Schilling.”

Police continue to pour over the scene in Southport and are keeping an open mind, not ruling out a double homicide and the possibility a killer is at large.

Ellery, 24, was a former bikie enforcer, known as Lizard Man to police because of his full-face tattoos. He had been in and out of jail in recent years.

Police said yesterday “anything is possible” and were appealing to anyone with knowledge of the people at the address or associated with the address to come forward.

SHELSEA SCHILLING’S POEM AND NOTE, AS POSTED ONLINE BY HER MOTHER

“For Bronson.

The man I want was the man I had.

He made me happy bFor Bronson.

The man I want was the man I had.

He made me happy but loved to make me sad.

Dreams of shadows becoming clear,

The man of my dreams is my biggest fear.

As cool as can be, nothing gets to him.

The ice runs deep from limb to limb.

He compliments me and thinks of ways to see my teeth.

But I know he only wants what’s beneath.

Am I the one he wants to keep?

He’s got me questioning if our love is ocean deep

I stayed and I waited

Cause I didn’t want to walk alone

But the longer I stayed, the less it felt like home

His first language is liar, not something I desire

The man I had has changed me

He had hopes to de-rail me

Box me up and chain me

The man I had I don’t even know anymore

So easily he would throw me to the floor and watch me pour

Without hesitation, he’s unpredictable

What he’s done is unforgivable

Threats and accusations

Thought it was all miscommunication

Still I think of him, because he’s the man i wanted all to myself

Girls be careful what you wish for, you might wish for hell

He’s sitting in a cell

I had no other option

I ask myself: Was it all worth it in the end?

Will he understand, can we make amends?

You won’t know until the time has come

Where he’s looking at you from behind a gun.

He showed me the real world and taught me that bad people are out there doing bad things.

And what consequence brings

How to get away with it,

Make everyone scared

All while pushing away the only ones who cared

He’s got me wondering how long I’ve got to live

Will It depend on what he’s willing to give..

The crazy lifestyle is more than just a look

It’s not something you can read in a book

Some people are born this way

And love every minute of every day

They think they’re living life right

All they want to do is win the fight

There’s people that act and people that do

People that follow through

Follow through with thoughts they have in their head

The type of thinking where people end up dead.

I’m sorry to be so negative but I want everyone to know that if I get hurt or die Bronson Ellery (person in picture) is responsible...

I’ve have seen first hand what they do and would never post this for attention.

To all the girls suffering from domestic violence please speak up. Be brave, because at any moment anything can happen.

And to the guys that are doing this, please seek help.

And hello to the people that are spying for these friends of theirs. Good company you keep. Just remember at anytime they can put you in their bad book and who’s going to help you then you loved to make me sad.”
