I live in a house
that is not a home
and never will be
my mother tries to understand why
why do you not feel at home?
what did we do wrong?
well to tell you the truth

the walls feel confining
but it was not the architects mistake

the rooms seemed unloved
unlived in
but not because you didn't
love me

the floor seems to ache like my bones
but that isn't because the home is old

I feel uncomfortable in this house
you tried so hard to make a home
because to me
home is where your heart lies
and my heart roams
free

my home is the trees
and the sun
the cool breeze
the warm soft dirt
the sun baked raspberries
and chewed up sweet peas

my home is the
tears that have fallen
the lessons that were learned
(repeatedly)
the smiles that we have shared
laughs and snorts
love and hate

my home is the world
and this house is indeed
a part of the earth
but my dearest mother
it will never be my home.
I use to protect you
stepped on eggshells
around you

I would lie
for you
lie to you
I'd put you
before me

hate who you
hated
loved who you
loved

I tried to save you
I sacrificed my life
my emotions
morals
all
for
you

turned out
I broke you
even more
than before
and I broke
myself
too

I made you
think yourself
more than
you are
and made myself believe
it too

I blinded you
with good
intentions
and hurt myself
with bad
ones

my friend
I am very sorry
I killed you
with love
and fixed
myself with
hate
Confusion turns to curiosity
Turns turn to hate.
Through all this animosity
My fear is innate.

Ravaging through twists,turns
My eyes begin welling.
The end is what I yearn
My dreams keep on telling.

Walls of time pass,
That will never disappear.
My heart beats fast,
Wanting to rid the fear.

I try to stop skipping,
Not an appropriate time.
The vines keep on nipping,
Insisting, "Let us rhyme."

My fingers turn cold
While I stumble down.
This scene seems so old,
Immediately I begin to frown.

Have I reached the beginning,
of the finale of imagination?
My vision is thinning,
My reality is winning,
On the verge of separation.

Frustration takes its course,
time and time again.
I feel no more remorse,
The Labyrinth ensues again.
I was happy
I even laughed
Made memories
With my minds eye

I felt love
I saw beauty
I felt relief

Started with a subtle
Increased beat
Then the waves came again
The heaving of my chest
The flow of my tears
The haunting images

You followed me
When I was starting to feel
Again

You should have packed
A suite case too
and taken your own
Vacation
Away from
Me

Imaging you when you were a school girl
Mini- sarong, small white shirt
A bag jam-packed with books hanging on your shoulder
Tiara in head, and two queues like two small dark snake
And those long eye petals highlighted with collyrium
Your two sapphires fluctuating in deep Blue Ocean
Impish humming birds were humming with their assiduous tongue,
to get your attention.
Let the Almighty curse their tongue was your supplication
Walking in two fickleness legs, licking an Ice- cream
Bewilderingly, you became my “A Midsummer night’s dream”.
Each second I encounter you in my Ruya
For years you are my Ruya.
Ruya(dream)- A turkish word
Poetry
my eraser of misery
a balm to my soul
keeps my being whole
where would I be
without my
poetry

Paddy's faithful workhorse
It broke down by the gate
And he had forty acres
To plough and cultivate

Paddy lived all alone
Now that was a fact
So he wrote an advert
Somewhat lacking tact

WIFE REQUIRED URGENTLY
A MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR
IS THAT THE APPLICANT
SHOULD POSSESS A TRACTOR
AGE UNIMPORTANT, COLOUR DOESN'T MATTER
PLEASE ENCLOSE WITH REPLY PHOTO
OF SAID TRACTOR
thanks to Craig Parsons for the inspiration
