Choose
Someday, I’ll be able to send this message to someone.....
I love knowing that you know you are free to go and every day you choose to stay.
It is my most humbling thought every day and the greatest sacrifice of love you could possibly show me.
Someday ....
Just not today....

have more faith in animals
trust , how does one trust?
you think you can trust
but can you ?
how do you know that you can rely on a person ?
how do you know who to trust and who not to trust?
sometimes i feel like people are reliable
then i realise, i was incorrect
you think you know someone then your opinion changes
and you feel let down, and abandoned
what a selfish world we live in
i'm pretty sure animals are more reliable
they wouldn't let me down
they would just linger by my side ...

no.
i want her to love me.

if she loves me still.
she would act like it right?

probably because she doesn't care.

this isn't real.
he felt as if he was in a dream-no, nightmare
he tried day after day to wake up
but the reality wasn't changing
it hurts so bad
it felt as if his first love broke his heart again and again
and the days which he thought he was asleep
began to feel more real
no!
he didn't want it to be real
he wished
day after day
that he was sleeping
and he was soon to wake up
and the person he admired most
was still alive
his inspiration
his role model
was still breathing in the same oxygen that he was.

Moment of Mercy
From a winter wood and ways,
ten thousand days.
In a clearing found,
I came to pass.
And with heavy legs and tired heart,
I stopped to watch,
and touch the light.
I held it in my hands and wonder,
so rare so sweet,
it was permitted.
My fingers warmed and brow was soothed,
I loved in moment, and I loved in whole.
And wishing for it not to pass,
I forgot my journey and all questions asked.
But late it was, and brief the day,
so soon to end, with darkened cloud ahead.
With muddied...
ten thousand days.
In a clearing found,

And with heavy legs and tired heart,

I loved in moment, and I loved in whole.

For You Mercy
I heard that gold is made by cosmic rays
That come from distant stars collided
And put to earth to be a treasure
And love I think is made in little ways
I made a piece for you my dear
You have it now, to be forever
Or leave or keep or throw away
But never was it meant as measure
To buy and trade or deal to seal
It was not there before I knew you
I made it real and gave it freely
And never can it fade away
I do not want it back, it’s yours forever... I’ve given it to you
That come from distant stars collided
And put to earth to be a treasure
And love I think is made in little ways
I made a piece for you my dear
You have it now, to be forever
Or leave or keep or throw away
But never was it meant as measure
To buy and trade or deal to seal
It was not there before I knew you
I made it real and gave it freely
And never can it fade away
I do not want it back, it’s yours forever... I’ve given it to you

The flowers cut short mid bloom,left to parish on my doorstep.
Your scent seeping under my bedroom door drawing me closer.
Hiding under my bed waiting for the footsteps to fade into the background.
Crying with dry eyes as you begged me to stay for just a little while longer.
Moth caught in a spiders web.
Web of lies and copper wire.
Babe beaten within a inch of your short life.
preparing the thinking of the beautiful outcome.
Your scent seeping under my bedroom door drawing me closer.
Hiding under my bed waiting for the footsteps to fade into the background.
Crying with dry eyes as you begged me to stay for just a little while longer.
Moth caught in a spiders web.
Web of lies and copper wire.
Babe beaten within a inch of your short life.
preparing the thinking of the beautiful outcome.

do not neglect a flower
i bought a bunch of flowers today
from a friendly florist shop
they told me to water each day
so i made my way home i trimmed the stems
trimmed with precision and care
i placed them in a vase of cold water
then i forget about the flowers
more important matters were on my mind
the puppy needed regular walks and i had a job to go to
my mind was stressed, the flowers went out of my mind
why did i pay the florist in the first place?
if only to dry out, wither and fade
why take them into my home and let them sink?

Refugees
Refugees
The poorest of the poor
Homeless
Seeking refuge from violence
Out of the frying pan and into the fire
The unthinkable
Criminalization Deportation
Families separated
Children taken away and lost
Evil is as evil does
The Horror!

Monet of pain
I'm depressed
no dressing it up
will alter the truth
I am awash in sadness
I paint my tears blue
to make my pain more beautiful
and reason if it's art it can be born
a Monet of feeling
little dots of emotion creating a picture
all my feelings personified
each with their own thoughts
argue inside me
they wrestle with my ego
who refuses to attend their intervention
they see a soul in peril
I see an artist who dips her brush in sorrow
creating loveliness
they say
...

Bonfire
Still again after the fire- works
children snug in bed, parents too
embers in the parks and gardens
languid sparks rising to the night.
Homeless mouse and hedgehog
those the lucky ones ... ... ...
who saw the torches coming.
children snug in bed, parents too
embers in the parks and gardens
languid sparks rising to the night.

stupid cloud
i stand in a cloud of grey, trapped in a place i'd rather not be
sitting in pain , oh why me?
the cloud is dense , sometimes
i have wings but i cannot fly the sky
pushed again into this state of enforced misery
reverted to a dreary cloud
the pain has increased in intensity
colours have changed tone , a darker shade
and i am pushed inside a hole again
my little twig like feet are dragged here by a force that is bigger then me
events in my life, hurts, pain
the cloud wins or maybe my mind simply wins
i guess my past pains are...
