I was in love with two men
and decided to choose you

now I know better

I should not have chosen
either of you

Failure
Silva Mee Jun 2017
If it has been your intention
To hurt me
You have succeeded

If it has been your intention
To get back at her
By hurting me
You have failed

Dark side
Silva Mee Feb 2018
You say to me
if I do not stop
looking at the dark side
I will never be in love again.

So I decide to turn my head
and look at the bright side.

I had come today
expecting to meet
dull and uninteresting people
but when I saw your smile
I knew I had been wrong

shell
Silva Mee Aug 2022
she looks at the shell
and wonders

how many people
have walked past
without noticing it
hurrying through their lives
chasing other people’s dreams

she stops
smiles
and decides to be different

Running along the river
Silva Mee Feb 2018
I sometimes dream
That I run with you
Along the river

You hold my hand
And my soul
Is full of joy

But every time
Just when our souls
Begin to meet
I wake up

making bread
Silva Mee Jul 2020
making bread
helps me
to connect
with myself

kneading the dough
tells me
that persistence
is key
to achieving my goals

taking the bread
out of the oven
is a ritual that tells me
that all will be fine

Untitled
Silva Mee Jul 2017
You made me smile
And lifted my soul to heights
Previously unknown to me
You made me think the thought
I had not dared thinking before
Until I realised
That you only love men

I stop counting

getting ready
Silva Mee May 2018
oh happy day
she sings
and arranges
the yellow flowers
in the pretty glass vase
next she sets the table
two cups and two plates
cutlery and serviettes
a jug of milk and a bowl of sugar
a teapot and the cake
that she has baked
especially for today

the end?
Silva Mee Aug 2019
you are so
different today
I do not see
desire in your eyes
but resignation
and a sense
that things will
never be the same
where are your smiles
and your belief that
everything you touch
will magically transform
I am sad as I  sense
that you are
anticipating the end
133 · Jan 2020
she does not write
Silva Mee Jan 2020
she does not write
he is concerned
her words had given
him pleasure
a sense that
he was not alone
her sudden silence
intensely saddens him

Me & You
Silva Mee Jul 2017
I like dancing, singing and laughing.
Moving my body makes me happy.
This is life, this is pleasure.

You just sit in your chair
and quietly watch me.
I can see that you hate
my life and my pleasures.

Music
Silva Mee Jun 2017
You wonder
why she left you
for a drummer

Could it be
that she likes music
and you do not

memory
Silva Mee Sep 2019
I can feel you
before you gently touch me
I sense your presence
even if you are not here
I listen to your voice
without you saying anything
I smell your skin
although you have already left
it is my memory of you
which makes me believe
that you are here
131 · Jul 2017
Mirror and I
Silva Mee Jul 2017
When I look into the mirror
with my eyes closed
I can see you
standing next to me
strong and purposeful.

I lean my head
against your shoulder
and feel safe and secure.

But when I look into the mirror
with my eyes open
I am all on my own.

hope
Silva Mee Jan 7
she walks through the streets
without knowing
where she will end up

left right and left again
up and down
and straight ahead

she follows her soul
hoping that she will find
what she is looking for

drinking violet tea

I am cheerful and smiling
because soon you will be here

doubts
Silva Mee May 2022
should I stop writing
the poet wonders
would it make a difference
if I did something else instead
could I then help to make
the world a better place

I am counting sheep

Train Journey
Silva Mee Jun 2017
This is a beautiful train journey
Green meadows
Silvery sea
Blue sky
And yellow sun

It was not like that two weeks ago
When I was on the train
Looking forward to seeing you
Then the meadows were brown
And the sea was black
The sun was hidden
And the sky was crying
I know now that they were anticipating my pain

Moon
Silva Mee Dec 2017
When I look at the moon at midnight I am reassured.
I sense your presence even if you are not here.
The light of the moon unites us
and I anticipate the pleasure of listening to your voice again.

without looking back just

she had no goal
she had no fear
