Right person, wrong time
Do you ever find
That you meet the right person
At the wrong time
That you have a connection
Of the mind
Your bond grows stronger
And it shines
So Bright when Mutual
Feelings unwind
Getting so caught up
You go blind
Only for reality to hit
And you find
Even though she's
One of a kind
She's not mine.....
That you meet the right person
At the wrong time
That you have a connection
Of the mind
Your bond grows stronger
And it shines
So Bright when Mutual
Feelings unwind
Getting so caught up
You go blind
Only for reality to hit
And you find
Even though she's
One of a kind
She's not mine.....

Your voice Echoes
Sometimes in the quiet
I swear I hear your voice
Whispering in the wind
Last time I wrote to you
was in anger and pain
But you washed it away
in form of the rain
I can feel you all around
Profound feeling sustained
Missing you like crazy
Brother in my heart you remain
I still find it hard
Not to carry some of the blame
Still choking when I try
to put into words and explain
Your voice Echoes
Through this window of change
Life without you
Continues to be...
I swear I hear your voice
Whispering in the wind
Last time I wrote to you
was in anger and pain
But you washed it away
in form of the rain
I can feel you all around
Profound feeling sustained
Missing you like crazy
Brother in my heart you remain
I still find it hard
Not to carry some of the blame
Still choking when I try
to put into words and explain
Your voice Echoes
Through this window of change
Life without you
Continues to be...

Music helps me write
Music is the antidote
To lifes poison
A symphony of sound
Drowning out
The world around
A cascade of emotion
Filters through to my pen
Like a gateway To my soul
Thought becomes rythmik
As I write to the music
An orchestra of inspiration
Must get it down before I lose it
Guitar strings pluck desires
Similes transpire
Musical notes appear
Becoming Metaphorical wires
Sound waves vibration
Ink filled dedication
Creating a sensation
Lyrical alliteration
...

SPIRITUAL POEM

I feel your pain, but offer my heart
Give me your heart
And I'll give you mine
Let our souls intertwine
Like vines so devine
Slip into a trance
And let our spirits dance
Let our minds bind
and unwind as one
I feel you pain and offer
An ear to hear
all you darkest fears
I was put on this earth
As a blessing and a curse
To absorb all your pain
And sometimes it hurts
I cannot change or rearrange
But I'll still catch your tears when it rains
And I'll give you mine
Let our souls intertwine
Like vines so devine
Slip into a trance
And let our spirits dance
Let our minds bind
and unwind as one
I feel you pain and offer
An ear to hear
all you darkest fears
I was put on this earth
As a blessing and a curse
To absorb all your pain
And sometimes it hurts
I cannot change or rearrange
But I'll still catch your tears when it rains

My chemical romance
Setting the scene...
Gyrating hips
Dance floor supreme
Pulled in tight
Baseline rythmik
getting drunk tonight
Perfume consumed
Ass against crotch
Smoky eyed muse
Whisky on the rocks
Sureal feeling
peace
Cocktails flowing
Sex on the beach
Hands all over
Feeling the heat
Don't stop
Move to the beat
Smelling so sweet
Short skirt raising
This could end n the sheets
Sunrising ...

Thinking ahead
I am writing a first draft
And simply reminding Myself
that I am collecting lyrics
So later
I can make

Streets of rage
Police sirens echo around the neighbourhood, like an anthem for my town, another stabbing, another young person found. Police tape decorates the streets as I walk, another body sketched outlined in chalk
Good morning pal, do you have a spare pound, a homeless man smiles as he holds out his hand
A brawl breaks out in the street, a drug deal gone wrong, more blood in the breach..
I send out a prayer for another life lost, at what cost, £20 for a bag, a life cut short, now he's wearing a toe tag.
I've had enough of these times, people forced into crime, kids...

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 ...

Time.....
I would sit here,
and write about time,
But I don't have any...
