Rational living

Don't leave a cotton bud in your dark denim and then machine wash it...with other dark pants. (Don't ask how 'it' got there in the first place).

Don't apologise for a bad haircut/ day.

Scream if you have to, write if you have to.


There...that covers life-lessons from week 21, 2010.

At home

Been round the corner
Over the bend
Under a mood
And then
Besides myself

Been where I shouldn't be
At the crossroads
In the twilight
Lonely and tired
Proud and selfish

Now I am
In love with you
My heart rested
And soul set free

Now I am at home with Thee

LOVED!

A journey,
finally a turn.

A shout,
of joy.

A heart,
set free.

Faith,
risen.

Beauty,
given.

Blessed
and favoured.

Me.

There's no title for this!

I must get back to this space....
Will I ever write again?

Y-O-U

You are what was good in my life
The songs, late nights, childish dreams of
tomorrow's happiness and strife

Contrived silence, a suppressed blush
Were the games we played though
we kept it all hush hush

Outdo, out-smile- it came so easily
Competing in the name of love
and celebrating the intimacy

You are what I loved most about me
Our smiles, tears and fights were all together
to be the best I could be

A selfish rhyme

As vast as this world may seem
I squeeze it down to me
There's anger, passion, unity
Love and humility

The fuel of my desire
Lights the fire
Echo of my words fills the dawn
From the day I was born

In secret is my rendezvous
Selfish and selfless
Not shy of any secret revealed
Dressing wounds that won't heal

The world is just a bubble
Bright and colourful
Waiting to be blown away
I lose interest and walk away

Two mirrors, one pump and two wheels
Multiplied is humanity
Life becomes anonymity
I shut it out to be free

Bleeding

When I couldn't understand
I kept silent
When you let go of my hand
I ble(e)d words

So near you could hear my breath
But not my cry
The distance grew to such a length
I ble(e)d words

If there is comfort in darkness
I couldn't sense it
Because I carried the sadness
I ble(e)d words

I am alone as I always was
To want and not have
When I re-live that pause
I ble(e)d words
