silence is a friend that will never betray
but do you want to live your life with nothing to say
be who you are forget about the gimmicks
we were born original don't let us die mimics

late evening and the sky reflects my feeling of relaxation
sleep is near and tomorrow will welcome the sun
meanwhile
I think
tiredness is a reality I can control
peace is a destiny I can't

Weekend at the beach
j a connor Jun 18
Friday evening sails into view
Sky turns a rosy shade of blue

Rise to my feet
Stroll across the sand

Listen to the surf
Riding the land

I drunk some wine
Just to clear my mind

But
I can't stop

Thinking about you

I think myself to another level
A consciousness of my own
Needing freedom to live in this projection
Finally realising
We are limited in the control of our lives in this uncertain future

but
the world's gone mad
but business ain't bad
people living rough
but the bank can't get enough
we think that we know it all
but we don't do it
the sky is the limit
but there's a hole going through it

I don't think I was wrong
leaving this place
the names are the same
but it's got a different face
I've changed and I've grown
a better life I chased
but somewhere on the journey
I missed something in my haste

j a connor Mar 27
before the light disappears I stare into the sky
clouds have taken on a tinge of colour
horizon beckons my thoughts
somewhere out there is my daydream place
where the past mingles with now
such a feeling of calm
I wish I could stay

a window is a gap in the wall
glass can fill the hole
nothing comes in
nothing goes out
without the glass
we can make a difference

let the day begin
j a connor Mar 26
I'm awake
at least I think I am
eye slitted and post box red
lining up with the horizontal blinds to create a morning rainbow

once again dear world
I am still here

I think
j a connor Mar 25
it's evening
close the day behind me
my eyes are tired
nothing to do but relax
into my pre final daily ritual
the glass is primed
the moon flowers once more
this is hope

life is for everyone
let's not interfere because it makes us feel right
why waste energy trying to change and rearrange complexities
that we will probably never fully understand

The darkness prevails
Those unearthly tales
My future is clear
My destiny is here

The complexity of humanity can be found in the convenience store

The regulars, not looking to change the daily habits

The passing trade, hoping for a one stop

The lonely, finding a point of contact that may be the only one
                    not buying anything in particular but happy to advise
And

The cashier
                    overseeing all with power
                    never participating wholly in the dramas that unfold

But looking forward to the end of the day when the door closes
