The world turned upside down
My life did as well
Everything is on hold

You don't need to believe in God
To believe in yourself

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
My world is fantastic,
And so are you.

Orchids are white,
Good stories are rare,
Fire is red,
And so is your hair.

Sunflowers reach,
Up to the skies,
My lover is kind,
And so are your eyes.

Foxgloves in hedges,
Surround the farm,
Keeping it safe,
Just like your arms.

Daisies are pretty,
Tulips have style,
The day is warm,
And so is your smile.

The moonlight is beautiful,
Just like you.

Come with me into the world of elves
Where nothing is as it seems
There, forces from two worlds fight each other
And we just might get lost

And we soar from world to world
Nothing will stop us now
And we soar from world to world
Don't you want to come with me?

We will travel over the mountains on a snow white swan
And sing about what we see
Let's fight dragons and dark elves and troll
Who dwell in a far above cave

And we will soar from world to world
Now won't you just come with me?

It is daytime at night
The sky is filled with some light
We find a lake
And a farm
Pick a spot
Eating late

Find a magical world
Honey you are my pearl
Look at you
Beautiful
Shed a tear
Lovable

Get away
Together only two
Get away
Please love me too

And then the years go by
Disappear, mostly lost
Precious happy tears
We are old
We are old

Let us both disappear
Say bye bye to your dear
Sing a song
Play some cards
We can let down our guards

I'll raise a tent
Wonderful
You'll eat 'til your stomachs full

By a hill
Playing games
Now it's fun
Think I'll stay

You left me many nights ago
To sail around the island's shore
What do I do when flying solo?
Guess it's my fault wanting more

Worried thoughts fill my head
While you're away from land
How do I know you aren't dead
Washed up with the sand

Of course you will return
But while you've been away
My love continued to burn
The ship is now at bay

You are here again at last
Warm and loving smile
Look across the ocean vast
Don't go again for a while?

There is only one thing that gets me out of bed
That smell of roasted dark beans
Ground up and put in a glass jar
Steaming hot water poured over them
To make the sound of angels
Then pressed down to make every single
Particle of flavour seep into the dark brown water
Pour the liquid into my favourite mug
And smile as I sip and look at the beautiful day outside

It's the middle of the night again
And here I am, again
Typing up a poem
Thinking it might make me feel better
And it does

Thought I was happy
Now I have gone back again
Why is it so dark?

My stomach says yes
My brain says no
Who should I trust?
Guess food's off the table

It no longer hurts to smile
I  made some new friends
Stating the obvious
I am happy now

I said I love him
And he said "I love you back"
Life is wonderful

They say, all good things must end
as I clasp my hands and mourn
as I clasp my hands and weep
loneliness is my only companion

For you may never understand
what you mean to me

Eyelids so heavy
The sound of snoring
Echos through a house
Back against a mattress
Muscles aching
For a chance to rest
Soon the switch
Will turn off

Masks are good
They keep the plague contained
They keep it away

Masks hide my face
They conceal my emotions
They keep me away

Masks are bad
They stop me breathing
They keep help away

Can't find it either huh?

When I dream I dream of a place.
A place of great wonder and pleasant surprises.
Where everyone is as perfect as the feeling you get when fitting the final piece of a jigsaw puzzle.
Where there is always peace and quiet and love.
So much love.
An endless, perfect, undying love.
That is the place I dream of.
But when I wake up and reality comes flooding back like when water hits a spoon at too great a speed.
That's when I wish I could go back to sleep.
When I wish the whole world had the same dream as I did tonight.
Then maybe we, humankind, could make reality as a dream.
With love.

I ran from them for a while
Thought they'd given up
Now they're back
Scratching at me with sharp claws
I'm scared

A poem a day
Keeps the doctors away
They should cure my head

It spreads like fire
Everyone is affected
Earth is screaming
People die
We lose loved ones
I am scared
