The Valley of Longing

Down your feet take you, Through mud and deep roots. Clinging to branches, As vision dilutes.   You slip and you fall, But you’re ready to see. The future self’s guidance, Deep within thee.   The journey’s sufficient, To make you fulfilled. But right at the bottom, Is quiet and still.   Nothing but clay.... Continue Reading →

Mind Control

Beware the path of instant dread, That easy stream inside your head. Red herrings swoop and plague your brain, "What could be? Is it me? Conclusions falling cold as rain. . Infant thoughts so soft and small, While waiting longer for a call. Clawing, scratching, desperate plea. "What to do? Not a clue!" Don't follow... Continue Reading →

The One You Need

Strive to be the one you need, But search your inconsistency, For injustice that is thrown on thee, Reflects your incongruity. *** What are the traits you have in mind? Are they the ones you left behind? As you seek it's true you'll find, Staring back your judging eye. *** Double standards in your heart,... Continue Reading →

Hearts Don’t Beat

Is it ok to be happy ? To feel a joy inside my heart? Feeling soft and sappy, Looking to a brand new start. All my rhymes have rhythm, That hardly change at all.

Gateway

Unexpected memory of a corridor Voices roaring down the hall A birthday held when I was four - Not for me, for the jolly good fellow. An old man’s song if ever bellowed. On a night that feels both mad and mellow. - I mused a moment, child's mind, Who were his friends there by... Continue Reading →

Puppy Dog Eyes

I'm a spot in a puppy dog's eye, I, in eye, insignificant am I? The tiny speck in the cutest face, You notice not my rightful place. I'm a nothing, if not the key, A detail smaller than a flee. But details add to masterpiece, Piece by piece and none the least. Have you seen... Continue Reading →

The Broken Are The Kind

The broken are the kind Who feel the pain in life They try to pull your strife Inside they feel the knife The broken are the wise Who wear a smart disguise They make your spirit rise Inside they shrink in size The broken are the warm Who feel the constant storm They hold you... Continue Reading →

Strings

The fiddle gently pulls him under, The cozy sounds of distant thunder. He is but a fool. Seduced by notes from in the sea, As tears to widow’s misery. . Depths of sorrow beyond the tree, A place where sun and sky can’t see. Empty in himself. The centre of the broken clock, Where time... Continue Reading →
