i never used to smoke
but since you left,
it’s the only time i can seem to breathe

My friends tell me of their days
Same as mine
Texting, scrolling, napping, eating
Eyes glued to a screen till three am
The new night
Told it will end in two weeks
But there's no true end in sight
Sisyphus,
who was a King and not a disease
another easy mistake to make,
pay attention at the back
there'll be questions later.

I could relegate the delegates
to second class
or pass a hat around
earn a shilling, get a pound
buy a tea,
coffee's one pound 50p.

Can't  hang about
things to do
boulders to roll
what about you?
do you want to roll
a boulder or two?

Poetae Opus
How many times
Have we fallen
On the ground
While we tried
To walk on?

Did we ever stay
On the ground,
And cry over our failure,
Or did we stand
On our feet,
And continue trying
To walk on perfectly?

In the same way;
In search of our fate;

We will stumble
Over and over again;

However,

Our perseverance will determine
Our strength,
To stand on our own
And still going on!

My veins are rivers;
you're a fast swimmer,
but you love taking
your time
