Fresh

I lay awake, taunted it seems,
By memories long dead.
Faces and places clear in ink,
Waiting to be read.

Why hold onto this now lost dream,
Filled with hurt and pain.
Instead I walk into reality bright
And maybe love again.

Goodbye and Hello. I like this reality a lot.

Horsing Around

Pony Tails belong on Ponies,
And yet she still insists,
To have one on her head
Swept back in utility bliss.

From there she can study
And run her errands
Paint paper, not her hair
And hide away split ends

In truth it is beautiful,
Even if it is just function,
For finding ways to live a dream,
Really takes some gumption.

Messing around one night challenging a friend to write about the most random things we could think of. I got pony tails but probably ended up writing about them.

So ****** British

Apologies for the apology.
The backpedaling from foolish mistakes.
Traversing the sincere to the desperate,
Watching this world crumble around me.

Sincerely though I'm sorry.
It gives me no right to expect redemption
Nor do I, for I know the damage caused.
And truly that's why I wish this apology.

Could do more than just fill air.

Untitled Mind

No words describe,
The voice inside
That speaks.
In Feelings,
Not in prose,
Emotions in mind closed.

Starlight

I cease to forget under this endless sky,
A starlit expanse filled with moments clear.

Each twinkle brings a vision burning,
The silent void brings history to ear.

In panorama each scene, each line;
Taunt now through time’s sure distance.

They wash over, flooding a marooned mind,
Memories from which I have no resistance.

Resolute Results

Here it is.
My downward flight,
Printed clearly in black and white.
Numbers falling
Clear to see

But behind it is the death of me.

Yet there is also
A hopeful bounce,
Signs of a demon trounced.
Numbers climbing
Clear to see

The story that is making me.
