Her face is like a poem
Her heart a willow tree
Bending softly in the moonglow
Beating always for me
Sheโ€™s the bell in my distance
The hearth at home
With me everywhere
Even when Iโ€™m alone
In the desert she is water
Sheโ€™s the forest and the trees
Everything she is to me
Everything

Paper faces and silicone smiles-
Whereโ€™d you get that mask, little girl?
Looks an awful lot like

me.

I saw a cloud
One lonely whispy cloud
In the very blue sky
The edge was on fire...it was blushed
Peach
I looked again...
I saw a cloud
On fire...for just a moment
The sun had kissed the cloud
Goodbye for the day
On the right edge of it lips
On the edge of its smile
The clouds smile
Then
I looked away
And pretended not to notice
I've never seen that before. I did a double take.. It was a ray of sun on the edge of a cloud. Like a piece of rainbow. A friend said like when you bite a marshmellow and leave a smidge of lipstick.

I used to read your poems
but lately you don't write
you're silent and aloof
you know that isn't right.
You can't close a door once opened
you can't abolish all your dreams
you're a poet of the heart
mustn't fall apart at the seams.
Say what you can in words
they speak the message true
spoken from the heart
the poems will see you through.
A hermit's not your style
a recluse, you are not
never give up writing
of things that you've been taught.
I used to read your poems
I'd read them once again
if you would send them out
(this one's from a poet friend)

If you are down and feeling blue,
Then this thought is meant for you.
Always remember . . .

Love can mend the broken

I am so sorry.

For every time I hurt you..

For every cruel word Iโ€™ve ever said to you..

For not seeing what you needed most..

For not being kind to you as much as everyone else..

For every tear you have wasted..

For every time I stepped on your heart..

For every time I didnโ€™t believe in you..

For every time I didnโ€™t listen to you.

I am so sorry.

For ripping you apart..

For destroying the beautiful things in you..

For always making you pay the price..

And I apologise for all the wrongdoings I caused you!

Forgive this fallible human that is you.

I am so sorry.
true story.


'yeah,
she came to the clinic for an ultrasound and then went down to Morecambe Prom' for confirmation'

and the room lit up for me
I'm thinking,
Gypsy Rose Lee,
she went to see
Gypsy Rose Lee,
for confirmation?

my faith in everything was restored.
Sadly,
it seemed there was another private scan,
done down on the Prom'
and
that's where she went.

the balloon burst
and the ruins of everything
stared me in the
face.

Deadlines and bills, stress galore,
