Poetry power
When I tell my friends I write poetry,
They take the piss,
they don't understand the passion., misconceptions that's its all rainbows and flowers,
not realising the dedication,
that I put in the hours.
Driven by an emotional roller coaster,
Trying to navigate through feelings.
It is like the blinkers are on and they're blind to the inspiration that consumes us all around
Profound ,hearing the words in my head without a sound.
Ink bound thoughts from things I notice like never before,
enlightened vision,
clarity sparked intuition ...

Respect
It's a two way street
Trust earned over time
Honesty on repeat
Yours and mine
Mutual bond, no deceit
One of a kind
Talk is cheap
Actions defined
Sow then you reap
No rewind
Efforts required to reach
Seconds to unwind
Something to teach
Don't be denied
Respect....
Trust earned over time
Honesty on repeat
Yours and mine
Mutual bond, no deceit
One of a kind
Talk is cheap
Actions defined
Sow then you reap
No rewind
Efforts required to reach
Seconds to unwind
Something to teach
Don't be denied
Respect....

I see you....
She gives little pieces
of herself ,never showing
the full picture.
I see you....
Heart felt gestures,
Without a second thought,
Every person held in the
Highest regard..
I feel you...
Kindness is her nature
She carries herself with grace,
We could never replace her.
Because that would be a mistake
I admire you....
Admiration rains down on you,
And you probably don't have a clue,
You've had your own problems
But you always have a positive point of view.
I...

Admiration rains down on you,

You've had your own problems
But you always have a positive point of view.

KristinaX
I met a girl on here
named kristinaX,
I was looking for
poetry to read,
When I stumbled
across her page
Full of erotic sex.
A few comments were shared,
Not all about sex,
She is so much more
She is complex,
I have admiration,
And respect ,
KristinaX.
She is fighting her demons,
And I'm fighting mine,
We check on each other,
from time to time
Her mind is messy,
And her heart is pure
She's batshit crazy,
And that's for sure
She's a talented writer...

Sunset
Like floating lava,
Almost apocalyptic
and bloody red,
Dancing on the horizon.
Silhouettes of trees
hide in the shadows,
As though Hidden
from consumption.
The sun lingers low
Nearly out of site,
Like it is enjoying it's
own spectacle.
A blanket of fire
Resembles hell,
Yet offers..,
peace and artistry....

My brother and I
It was December 2021 when I got the call, our mum was crying,, almost choking on her tears.... Your brother only has a few days to live ,she finally managed to get the words out...
Shocked and confused, I felt my heart sink, you had only gone into hospital a few day's before, to get help with your alcohol abuse.
You knew you had a drinking problem, but your anxiety had prevented you on many occasions getting the help you needed.
Even though only three hours, it felt like the longest train ride ever !!
On the journey down it was 11pm and although the train...

My summertime muse
Buckle up babe,
we're going on a road trip,
no need to pack,
leave your troubles at home,
pedal to metal as we roam ,
windows down music up,
a flower in your hair ,
singing along without a care,
hand in hand,
country road bound,
Adrenaline infused bliss,
a smile on your face,
as I lean in for a kiss, .
We'll find a field
with a panoramic view,
roll around on a blanket,
my summer time muse,
no need for booze
we'll get hiigh on passionate screws,
you can dance...

Self reflection
I don’t have bad intentions,
but miscommunication
can sometimes create a perception,
I look to mirrors for reflection,
Perplexed and slightly irritated,
to now be painted with the same brush, as malicious identities....

Medieval dreams
Subconscious state
Drifting ever more,
Mind casts,
regressive thought's long past,
Echoes of medieval times ,
Axes weild wild,
And ghostly battlefield
Cries
Sharp Clinks of armour ,
As villages pillaged,
In the name of tyranny,
Sneaky Candle lit rendezvous,
a foot,
In secret alluring sin,
Plots of revenge,
in whispering
Castle walls within,
Peasants work the land ,
to feed famished kin,
scraps are on the menu again
Wenches haggard , ...

Artful dodger
Woven webs of deceit,
are spun from third party quips,
never knowing truths,
loose lips,
sink big ships
are spun from third party quips,
never knowing truths,

Tree of memories
I sit in the middle of the forest,
a thousand year's old,,
many a story does my trunk hold, some Etched in history, some untold,
blood stained earth lays beneath, deep rooted memories of love loss and grief, from battles fought out of greed, landscapes have transformed all around me, ,
messages of love carved out of my bark, sometimes it's lonley and scary when dark, then the sun rises and the birds come to sing, I dance in the soft brisk wind,
If I could share my stories of century's gone by,
I would extend a branch so you could sit and...

Soul to soul
I am the ying to your yang
You're The light to my dark,
you help me keep the spark in my heart, your eyes deep as galaxies,
twinkle like stars on a clear night,
your beauty tames the beast within me,
if only you could see,
the blinding affect you have on me,
waves crash around inside,
you give me hyper butterfly's, ,
you're the bonnie to my clyde,
we could ride until we die,,
you raise my spirits high,
all it takes is that smile,
Your elegance and grace,
puts my demons in...
