Musing #6

What a life we live now in this world we create, Copying it with things we can relate. Replacing the originals which were once sown; Denying yourself because it is yourself alone, Why must others always take your place? Why is it that it’s only you yourself you can’t face?

My Smile.

A smile can heal a heart, Allow new relationships to start. A smile that is bright and true, Can chase away all the blues. My eyes face forward to another face, Seeing their lips quirk at my muscles trace. A mirror’s not the same, my smile doesn’t work there, Too much tension and strain as […]

Their Light.

Born to a house, now they called me light I was there to stay within their sight. Here’s a bed made of thorns, they kept the rose petals light, And a pillow for my head, made from all their fights. A blanket too, of all their rue; from my heart they took a bite. Finally, […]

Toxic Friends.

Dear Friend, I had lots of fun today, As we fought and you blew my happiness away. Dear Friend, I had a wonderful time, Learning that this smile on my face was a crime. Dear Friend, I love you so much, I know you do too, the knife in my back tells me such. Dear […]

The Battle Within.

It truly would be easier to fight someone else, The battle’s so hard, when it’s against your own self. But as the dust settles and you look to and fro, Did you really win or just let go? Cause where’s the victory in losing a part of yourself? Did you become better or become someone […]

Dying Light

I’d give all my oxygen, this love in my heart, To keep this fire burning, ready for a new start. Yet here’s my fading breath, and the dying embers grow; Ash in my veins so I want you to know I’m leaving now, this is goodbye And when I’m gone, will you let these embers […]

Enclosed.

A sigh of breath above my chest, A swarm of bees never at rest. These enclosed walls once kept me safe, Riddled and worn but still awake. Now they move in a more sinister way, An arena built for my demons to play.

Space Between.

Such a pity that here I stand, Better than a monster, less than a man. Between the sky, between the sea, Stuck in the middle, where should I be? Scared of dying, tired of living. Never taking, never giving All the love caught between Never found, never seen. Just an invisible being walking down my […]

Meanings in Words

You were the ‘art’ in my heart,Feeling so good as you did your part. You were the ‘good’ in goodbyeAs I fled from all the lies. But then you became the ‘cheat’ in cheating,The agent of memories so fleeting. Now your the ‘over’ in the lover of my life,Breaking me apart with this dull knife.

Save Myself.

Invisible bonds hold me down Manacles on my mind, flowing through this town. Through my lungs, to my heart; To my feet, nothing left apart. My body the town, held captive by fear, The key in my soul, so far yet so near. Just one thought and they’ll be free, Just one forgiveness in my […]
