Becoming slowly unrecognizable to yourself and others
Feelings and thoughts take
a hold, giving you the shudders
Memories and emotions that seem to flood your heart
Faces and places making it hard to know where to start
Decisions throughout the day, waiting to be made
Resting again in bed where it all just seems to fade
Urges of wanting help yet not knowing what to say
Triggers causing you...

Taking time out on a couple of dates for one
May seem lonely or anti social for some
But having space to yourself - mostly all alone
Shows a few changes that you have outgrown
Valentines Day - being a special one for lovers
A time of anticipation and kindness for others
Loving yourself by being your own best friend
A journey in itself which doesn't need to end

Card and presents, wait to be opened, all in a line
Roses, chocolates and bottles of red wine
Celebrating Valentines Day, its just a matter of time
Happiness shown, whether it be rain or shine
Cupid wasn't so stupid, sending his arrow as a sign
The restaurant booked, we drink and then we dine
Thinking that when we met, he must of made you mine

There's something about this season, Spring
Waking up to birds as they, sing
Trees and its blossom show subtle, pinks
Clouds and rain, for thr earth now drinks
The sun reappears, having such a glow
As if it were trying to say, hello
I go to the garden to walk around
To see what other things are found
Butterflies with their colorful wings
How this season holds such beautiful, things.

Going to bed then waking up late, what lies ahead?
We ask you fate
Jogs in the winter sun around the area,
Becoming healthy - losing weight
With hope in the vaccine and wanting to be immune
We look to this date
Remembering things of the past, finding comfort
Talking to a mate
Thinking what we have done and future plans
Good and bad times we know await.

No matter how much the shouting, its the inside worth counting
Never mind harsh words of a person, their actions could never worsen
Others with a listening ear, may take away the fear
The unknown goes on behind closed doors, hiding all the flaws

Fondness comes after the trouble, back to how things were, a couple
Smiles are exchanged, somehow...

Letting someone else's light shine brighter than mine, isn't such a prideful crime,

Giving the most enchanting moments to some souls.

In the silence that resonates,
a lament of absences,
the flowers bloom in the shadows,
whispers of a life that fades away.

Eyes searching the horizon
for a trace of hope,
but pain, like a poem,
is sculpted in the words of the day.

The city is a labyrinth of steps
that reflects solitude at every corner -
laughter dissolves in the wind
like falling petals,
disguised in the chaos.

Loneliness is feeling isolated even when someone stands beside us,
A companion who shares our days but leaves our soul empty.
Surrounded by familiar faces, we doubt if they truly love, value, or respect us.
When our days feel like wasted moments, irretrievable and lost.
When dreams and goals fade into “I’ll never succeed,”
And we’re consumed by the fear of being the failure we see ourselves a...
