"You are stronger than you think,"
she said,
not realizing
my situation
only came about
because of my weakness.

Fear is the only thing that will keep you from the truth,
So is self-consciousness the only thing we should fear?!
Just relax…

A year is going to die
but its memories will stay
in the times ahead.

The success, the failure, the try
will be there next day,
the worries to carry to bed.

But over all else
the love I got
will still warm my heart.

As certain as time sails
what can't be bought
will be life's special part.

Was I as generous in giving
for this special gift I received
was I as kind?

The question is haunting
though I tried indeed
my best wasn't good enough I find.

Forgive me where I failed
didn't shine in the light
you let me be in.

I promise to make amend
and keep it in sight
loving you more is all I mean.

moving out
from the noise
and the drama
and the control
and the good and the bad
loneliness is freedom
but how far is so far away?
is a blank page empty
or just white?
time in the form of a pen will tell

January starts its journey
as a wet and sorry thing,
a limp balloon in a leafless tree
and a soggy bit of string

The sun is shining the whole of the year
In a beautiful garden
Here right here
It’s in my mind but it’s very clear

There’s pretty red roses
And colourful flowers so sweet
The colours are amazing
To the eyes they’re a treat

There’s a feeling of freedom
Peace quiet and calm
In my beautiful garden
And my place of calm!
