fire and ghosts
the fire
lit up
ghosts,
they glided
around
the black
sands
of death,
exiled
from home,
dancers
trespass
through
these dreams.

Man Behind the Mirror
Gazing into the mirror's reflection,
I encounter a peculiar figure observing me.
Resembling me so closely,
Yet emanating a distinct essence.
I ponder the connection I sense,
His difference conflicting with my yearning.
I envision an altered version of myself,
Until I confront reality in the mirror's discerning.
Engaging in conversations with the mirrored self,
Silence echoes, for he utters no reply.
Yet, his eyes convey a disdainful sneer,
As if I am a flaw, a fracture to the eye.
I encounter a peculiar figure observing me.
Resembling me so closely,
Yet emanating a distinct essence.
I ponder the connection I sense,
His difference conflicting with my yearning.
I envision an altered version of myself,
Until I confront reality in the mirror's discerning.
Engaging in conversations with the mirrored self,
Silence echoes, for he utters no reply.
Yet, his eyes convey a disdainful sneer,
As if I am a flaw, a fracture to the eye.

Cellophane
I’m not sure if I can break the seal from not much to have it all . When was the day I got covered in cellophane . Yes I do know when everything I thought
was for me became unstuck and I was left undone . Not like a gift or a present where your heart and your mouth smile as one . It was the day when I realised
life isn’t a vanilla envelope . Life it gives and takes and I guess now I don’t like sharing or change so I got stuck . To what an overwhelming fear of suffocation and fear . A base layer of protection but in time it becomes your straight jacket and you can’t touch anything...

Tired
You found a way to resolve yourself
but no intention to include me
you stay hands up, head down
because that's what they wanted to see
I frantically smile at the barrel
but no intention to assume it was yours
I stay hands down, head up
because we both know
I was always bound to go up in smoke
but no intention to include me
you stay hands up, head down
because that's what they wanted to see
I frantically smile at the barrel
but no intention to assume it was yours
I stay hands down, head up
because we both know
I was always bound to go up in smoke

The little things .
Nobody truly knows how you are . Only yourself and it’s meant to be ok to say that you are not ok . Since I put my cat down of 14 years and the next day getting
the letter regarding the mortgage triple Interest rise . I have had moments when I lost my grip well pretty much since my cat died . Over a cat it’s madness isn’t it.Well I will tell you my four legged friend gave me so much love as long as he was fed . Lost a mum a dad and a brother too but maybe cos I am older this cut me in two . But the little things are still there a smile breath of fresh air and the glint in an eye and a...

Swipe
I did again
I did again
What did I gain
WHHAAA- swipe :)
Here I am and it's ten fifty five at night I'm swiping again at them dating apps mrrraaagh
I don't really know what I stand to gain again I'm faced with this argument
(Like do you ever read the room or your emotions?)
I have no self control when it comes to being alone I don't
mhm..
(And repetition doesn't drive you crazy?)
Awh man, I'm glad now that you asked it's been the 4th month back to back with this
(With what?)
Whit this!
(What's that?) ...

Empty Seat .
Why now and not then have your circumstances changed?. Has your current squeeze had enough told you to do one so now you find yourself alone .First times are hard as loneliness blinds you and dices and slices your heart and fries it up for breakfast as the vultures circle their prey . How now times passes so slowly and you’d sell your soul to hang with someone who consoles . Time is a master of deception in deceit and people’s feelings tend to deplete . Or scurry to their feet allowing clarity when once there was a heart infused heap. That now resembles a melancholic organised downsized...

changes
when i was a child,
i thought my father was the problem,
and that my mother was a saint,
but now when things get difficult,
she puts me on the street,
in the dark and the cold,
while my dad drives 2 hours,
sick, tired, broke, and worried,
to pick me up,
from in front of my old school,
my cheeks are tear stained,
and i have bruises on my skin,
and no matter how many times it happens,
he comes,
he comes and he respects my choice to go back,
he knows that its hard to change my mind,
to make me realize she is no...

Woody Wood Pecker
He is my buddy
a bully and a bit chubby
he loves my dribble
is not poetry
we both know that
he pretends
I pretend
We have a laugh or 19
Now he doesn't always cheat
I am not always silent
never the less
partners in petty crimes
Some now Tik Tok
He simply prefers to mock
I click and click and click and click
OMG
am I the Wood Pecker?

Moonwalk
I watch you walk along the coast
Heart wedged inside your throat
Romancing troubled tides,
While your past protects your pride.
Sympathetic, the sea sighs
When it catches sorrowful eyes
And familiar tears begin to swell
As your secrets tell on themselves.
Fearing whatever happens next
You refuse to take those solemn steps
Instead you're hiding in the spans
Of a castle built on historic sand.
Heart wedged inside your throat
Romancing troubled tides,
While your past protects your pride.
Sympathetic, the sea sighs
When it catches sorrowful eyes
And familiar tears begin to swell
As your secrets tell on themselves.
Fearing whatever happens next
You refuse to take those solemn steps
Instead you're hiding in the spans
Of a castle built on historic sand.

To move or not to move
To move or not to move
That was the question
For the easy-chair meant
All the comforts of home
Softness, quiet, peace
A good book and slippers
All in its kitle nook
Not to move. Bliss and happiness
Yet also the silent and constant nagging
Your health your health your health
Fresh air needed
The call of the Wild
The forest nearby. A long trek
Ok, a mile or two
Then giving yourself a break
A pub and an ale along the way
No, no, I jest.
A coffee house, ''Robin's Hood''
For a veggie meal...
That was the question
For the easy-chair meant
All the comforts of home
Softness, quiet, peace
A good book and slippers
All in its kitle nook
Not to move. Bliss and happiness
Yet also the silent and constant nagging
Your health your health your health
Fresh air needed
The call of the Wild

Living a lie
Keep telling yourself,
"This time will be different,
because its honest"
But how can it be,
When you're lying to yourself?
Old, faithful, denial.
Consider this, friend.
You're worth being honest with,
But truth starts at home.
"This time will be different,
because its honest"
But how can it be,
When you're lying to yourself?
Old, faithful, denial.
Consider this, friend.
You're worth being honest with,
But truth starts at home.
