Poet Introduction
One slight poet Beautiful around the edges
Tears Allowed
Would you and I be the same
If we sat opposite each other,
you know.
just you and me talking.
would we be nervous and
lose the power of speech
or get a bit tongue tied.
would we know what to say
or would we be to busy
looking for faults...
I'd like to think that by the
time that day arrived we would
be as cool as cucumbers with
each other, with many a mile
walked and talked before we
got to that glorious moment.

Stumble and Fall
My speed of thoughts are in harmony with my emotions.
Sometimes I stumble and fall, This you are aware of.
The path I'm on is not so smooth as I thought it might be.
But you're always there, Reaching out through my emotional
chaos, Your hand I take every time to pull me up and dust
me down, our tears bathing us in our shared beliefs and
desires. I must learn to slow down, To walk with eyes wide
open. The path will become clearer in time, For fear of
destroying something that could be wonderful even before
its begun weighs heavy upon my heart and one that I...

Dog Day Morning
*My bad attempt at word play
Based in true events that happened this morning
when I need to be I can be quick!!**
Leaving the side gate unlocked.
Nice helpful clients I have you see.
The dobermans are locked inside.
It will be fine to go around the back yard.
As I opened the gate
Face to face
with the hounds of hell.
The text arrived too late...
Don't open the gate.
The dogs are out.
You see I have nice helpful clients

Portraits
I wasn't disappointed or surprised.
I expected that outcome in truth.
As cruel as it looked to be it wasn't
what I was trying to portray.
Neither was your response meant
to upset. It was an option to use,
in case you were unsure where to
begin, I know now not to use this
avenue, Or any other until you decide.
Unwanted attention from snooping
eye's, I understand, It's no issue now.
I'll follow the wording to the letter.
My heart never missed a beat.
Though my feelings feel shredded
and torn right now, A piece of my
heart will...

Breathing
She placed her head on his chest
So she could hear his beating heart.
The same heart that had been racing
with hers a little while before, now
Slowed as she sensed his breathing
become shallow as he drifted to sleep.
His cock glistened in the moons
glow, One that had been so hard
and viril, now worn out and tired,
She smiled at the thought of wearing
him out again, So eager to please her.

cherish
So far away
I still feel you're touch
I still hear you're heart
The whispers to cherish
To hold for safe keeping
In our hearts and minds
To wish for in time
To speak of love
Eases the pain
So far away
I still feel you're touch
I still hear you're heart
The whispers to cherish
To hold for safe keeping
In our hearts and minds
To wish for in time
To speak of love
Eases the pain
So far away

Start
It's funny how reading poetry
can make one's heart double tap
Well I guess this is it
The start is down to you
however and whenever you
choose is fine and agreable
you know I can't make the first move
I fear rejection more than you know.
Oops have to go and run after my heart again.

The Heart Needs Training Too
Mr Heart
slow you're beating so
racing away will never do
Yes take that direction
That one fits comfortably.
Mr Heart
you lack patience
of a cat at feeding time
It's about time you learnt
to chill
No, Just be cool is fine.
A steady tempo
That's it
Good
stay as the hunter
not the hunted
No rave beats
It's not dark and I'm not pretending
making shapes and shit is not my drug baby.
We're not all at sea
Drowning is not going to happen
Mr heart, are you still listening?...
slow you're beating so
racing away will never do

Moments
I didn't know until our paths crossed
That love and all the baggage that comes
along for the ride can be so dammed beautiful
and painful at the same time. All those years
faded away so quickly that it feels like it was
yesterday. I remember the first time you popped
up In the background all quiet, I shouldn't have
noticed you, But I did. You wanted something,
We swapped a trade. The mystery within you and
me began to seed. Various moments you would appear
like a apparition then fade from site. A slight
intrigue,call it a...

To My Wriggling Toes
I feel my beating up the tempo
everytime i think of you.
My heart pumping out the words
like morse code as if sinking fast
in a sea of blood red hopes and fears
Like trying to close the door on a
zombie horde
Lusting for my blood
Is no easy feat
And one that occupies my waking.
only in my sleeping am I spared
And every awakening the same
as the one before.
I must be mad
or even a little crazy.
But what I know I am
What I know to be true
Within my head
and oh so beating heart
Right down to my...

Calming
I know you read from afar, A distanced sneak peak
Maybe to see if my words of love still have your name on them.
As you know by now they most surely do.
It's all I can write about at the moment.
you see, You know its me
You can know by reading my poetry that you are missed.
Unfortunatly I'm left to guess if what I read from afar
My own little sneak peak
Maybe my thinking has got screwed up
they could be just drifting words from anothers thinking and not
yours. You see I don't truly know, I kid myself that it is
But i'm only guessing, The texts...

Switched around
It needn't be as problematic as it appears
social media last two numbers switched around
will appear.
Text first to open connection
to make ready
before soundwaves to follow soon after
number block to ease worries and fears is ok to do
I'm sure you will find a way
I'ts ok to do this
no time limits
find the right time
It will get easier
I promise
It's friendship afterall
