Let there be more.

More dreams, more dares,
More scandalous affairs,
More lust, more zeal,
More unfair deals,
More to every lie,
More rules defied,
Let there be more of these.

Let there be more.

More cream on pies,
More curt than wise,
More sugar, no sweet,
More death, no disease,
More than what you can,
More than every man,
Let there be more of it.

Let there be more,
Till you realise,
You wish for less,
Less would suffice,
To fill the gap of More.
Clare Jan 2016
You helped me
find myself,
You brought out
the best in me.
Now you say,
let it go.
This was never
meant to be.
How do I forget
what I know,
Or live for less
When I need more?
Clare Nov 2015
Make peace
Make peace with this world
Be wise, be blind
This life is a dream
With only requiem
The song they sing
Make peace
Make peace with this world
Grey hairs have stopped
Adding strength to thoughts
There is no growth
No learning anymore
Make peace
Make peace with this world
The only one you know
It will die quite slow
With men astray
For violence they pray
Make peace
Make peace with this world at last.
Clare Sep 2015
Lend me the fabric
of your tears today.
I will weave a tapestry
of undone dreams.
When you remember
To feel it's patterns,
The deep secrets,
Will be yours to seek.
Not words, not woes,
My hopes, I submit
Drink to it sometimes,
A tapestry.
Clare Sep 2015
There'll never be enough
For this world to feed,
Not debts, nor dough,
Not deaths will cease.
Who cares for joy
In living with less,
With lives to destroy
For personal progress.
Their legacy they build
Over ****** and lies,
But don't heed us,
As fools, we cry.

As the world keeps watch
Over each coin and grain,
We teach giving,
And living in pain.
Our audacity must
Pay you a dear price,
Make examples of us
For all to despise.
Forget us.
We're just
Fools in a paradise.
Clare Sep 2015
Live on
You poet's lover.
When the world dies,
You are
Immortalized.
Clare Sep 2015
Can violence be countered
Only by violence?
To be equals, we must riot
To be just, we must fight
Why every government every state
Furthers the hate mandate
Even
To show love we must ****
Or the enemies will
We say we want justice and peace
Why, why then this malice?
Where does our heart lie
As we slaughter and die?
