Butcher

I met a lovely butcher,

His shop was such a treat,

He joked and smiled and all the while,

Cut up some chunks of meat.

March Rain

Tuesday mourning morning,

It's cold and wet again,

How can it be that clouds can cry,

For more and more March rain

Momentary

A momentary lapse of thought,

Missed opportunity,

I miss a still and peaceful mind,

The chance to simply be happy.

Too Tired

I'm too tired,

To sleep,

Devoid of energy,

Yet energised,

Fraught with worries,

Downed by despair,

I am too tired,

To sleep.

Choosing

I look to make things better.

Don't quit 'til my last breath,

But on true reflection,

I'd be better choosing death.

All's (Un)Well

I have no

Responsibilities,

Looking into my own eyes,

I see,

Hollows,

Unkept,

Unloved,

Disillusioned,

Soulless and cold,

Staring back,

I wonder what he thinks,

Looking at me,

Probably sees failure,

Well, at times I even fail,

Failure.

Another day,

All's (un)well.

Start Again

A life that is much simpler,

Without sorrow, without pain,

Maybe I should pull the plug,

And look to start again.
