Blue Sapphire

I will live on
with or without you.

I won't cry,
I won't die.
I will live on
with or without you.

With you, life can be
a smooth journey.
Without you
it will be lonely,
but
I will live on
With or without you.

My life is not mine alone -
It's tethered to my family and friends.
For them,
I will live on
with or without you.

Inspired by a comment by Mr. Val Roy. Thank you.

Perfection is-
an imperfect word

Stupid Paradox

You dont trust
Because I lack experience.

I lack experience
Because you dont trust.

I am controlling myself:)

Summertime Snowdrops

Summertime snowdrops
Twinkle false hope midst aureate blaze;
Blinding lights outshine stars.

The right people at the wrong time. (:(

Early Realisation.

Early Realisation.

The first time I felt betrayed by creation
Was when I first was able
To get it straight in my head
That I will not be at my funeral.

Down the pit with Grandad.

Down the pit with Grandad.

There was time to relax
to take off the yoke
and ease our aching backs
but not much at all.

The pit pony was the only one
younger than me, and he could see
better than I.

The Spedding steel mill was a light that could ****
progress gave us the Davy Lamp
I thank Humphry for that innovation
and they made him a Knight
good job he invented that new kind of light
haha.

fukin' back's still aching
they're still taking
and we ain't making
much at all.

A Glow to Hold

I cup the moon in my hands
from a safe space
on untamed ground
in a forgotten place.

The moon—
its glow, it lingers,
wrapping soft eggshell hues
around my fingers.

Life, the Movie

Life, the Movie

We talk about the
past like it's a
movie we
watched together.
You liked the
cinematography.
I didn't care for the
cruelty of the
protagonist.

We disagree on the
theme, and every
scene holds different
aspects of
symbolism for us.
I'm not sure I want
there to be a sequel,
despite the good
acting.

Here is a link to my YouTube channel, where I read poetry from my latest book, Sleep Always Calls. It's available on Amazon. My two other books are also available. Seedy Town Blues and It's Just a Hop, Skip, and a Jump to the Madhouse.

Just an hour

Just an hour

I've got an hourglass of time
And people I've hurt
Countless as the sand in it
I've got a broken heart
Full of regret and pain
But you don't care
Once more, I stab the wound
That was once a person
A memory that I drank away
On a cold night
A memory burned out
Leaving cold ash
As countless as the sand
In my hourglass of time
