My breath stopped. You stole it. With just one look into your eyes. You smiled. And my ribs opened up, Letting my heart out of my chest. It flew to you. And you have it still. Always will. You may never know it, But you carry around, a piece of me. Unwittingly. But permanently. ©Continue reading “?”

To salve a lonely wait, Too quick to add the weight, Of cares, woes and worries. To calm, and not frustrate, Too curved to come out straight, To journey’s end it hurries. To blind the seeing eye, Too hasty with a lie, To quell a bogus thirst. To wave it all goodbye, Too clear toContinue reading “Five Hours”

A trail of stars, Cosmic dust, Are left in my wake. I am a fledgling sun, Learning to run, Moving for movements’ sake. I am following Venus. A peal of thunder, That no-one hears, Is my aural corona. I am a whisper in the dark, A tiny spark, Waiting my time to go supernova. IContinue reading “Following Venus”

All your secrets Are cast into the light, Like poisoned petals. Your regrets are all the songs, You’ve forgotten how to sing.Continue reading “A Casting Of Shadows”

I wish you’ld come. Help me close down the doors of heaven. Come into this quiet world, And puncture this raging silence. I’m so scared of never feeling alive. I chased myself into the dark And now there’s nowhere else to run. I wish you were a destination, I could turn to when I needContinue reading “I Wish”
