POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Personal experience is not always reflected fin my witting, nspiration is also found in the treatment of others and sometimes its as simple as random thoughts.
Connection
Connections are the invisible key
Difficult to fake, never gained free
Unable to be forced and empty if planned
Futile to control, worthless under command
Bonds are formed when minds connect
Strengthened with love and mutual respect
Impossible to copy, challenging to define
A pure life force, lasting a lifetime

Shadows
Darkness swarms, shadows pierce the night.
Dread being noticed, but safely out of sight.
Comfort with strangers avoiding contact.
One less reminder of what it is they lack
Most are unwilling to tackle the unknown
Willfully ignorant, and self condoned
Glass walls allow, narrow-minded ideals
Oblivion minimizes the shadows ordeals
Addiction and despair, hidden behind grime
To survive this cruel world, many turn to crime.
Histories overflow with abuse and deceit.
numbing the mind, wash, rinse...

Mental Capacity
Confused smile
Inward pain
Tention bubbles
Emotion contained
Protection absent
Fraudulent strength
Mentally helpless
Weak defence
Brains dying
Alzheimer's residing

Cupid's Best Work
Does everyone have a soul mate?
Or just a lucky few?
Is love, at first sight, a myth
Or a reality so unbelievably true?
Is the feeling, instant attraction?
A sense you've met before
A knowing you'll no longer roam
Just like coming home
Secure in their embrace
You never want to leave
Their breath on your neck
Brings you to your knees
Compromise on the cards
Strength you look to foster
Content with no one around
Understanding, without sound
A passion so intense,
you'll...

This is ME
Kind, fun, caring, smart
Imagination drawn in beautiful art.
Grace given without debt
Instantly decide the hurt to forget.
Surrounded by positivity, gratitude and joy
Speaking words to enrich and never destroy
Conscious of nature in all its glory
Proud to live my individual story
Not deterred by establishments rule,
Kind to animals, never cruel.
Welcome, adventure knocking at the door.
Embrace any chance to explore
Forging a unique path
Glass always full, never half
Practising unconditional love ...

Choices
Tears fall
Heart aches
Forbidden words
Feeling small
No escape
Enclosed walls
Silent screams
Dark dreams
Questioning love
Looking inward
Emotional scars
Create iron bars
Fears rages
Mind roars
Noone hears
Silent tears
Friends distant
Phone unanswered
Hiding away
Security craved
Damage invisable
Limiting beliefs
Change necessary
Otherwise, life equals grief

Slowly Dying
Frozen heart
Transformation commanded
Devotion challenged
Passion demanded
Behavior erratic
Trouble maker
Memory fails
Doubt creator
Endless lies
Phone monitored
Friends selected
Multiple Rules
Mind Games
Lacks ability
Keys vanish
Constant anguish
Disempowered
Restless
Scared
Alone
Bitter disappointment
Confused mind
Nerves frying
Silently, I’m dying.

Imagination, or is It?
Moonless night
Stars hidden
Shadows nonexistent
Darkness engulfs
Majestic in form
Trees gently whisper
Swaying in unison
Steadfast with strength
Familiar sounds quietly murmur
The near-silence, deafening
Small creatures quickly scurry
Lone footsteps patter slowly
Overzealous imagination creates sinister figures
Eyes darting left then right
Ears pricked, listening, on sharp alert
Heartbeats harder, faster, stronger
Mind clouding over gripped with fear
Confusion...

Unaware
It starts slowly
Creeps up whilst unaware
Feelings soon amplified
Questions arise, does anyone care?
Faces once bright now dull
Eyes mist over, emptiness glows
Life no longer blissful
Hidden emotions begin to show
Friends fade
Relationships suffer
Tensions frayed
No-one answers
Sleep becomes escape
Shadows haunt dreams
Only dark landscapes
Silent screams
Internally seeking a reality anchor
Suffering becomes the norm
The mind closes the bunker
Desperate to...
