True love
If its yours
You won't ever need to chase it
It will find you when you least expect it
And you won't ever need to ask it to stay
Thursday 30th November 2017 6:33 pm
What goes around comes back around
Karma is a bitch my friend
And she will certainly come knocking
I'll just sit back and watch you
Its not worth doing anything else

Home
Home sweet home...
Its where the heart is they say...
But what if my heart is a million miles away?
What if its with everyone I love?
Home can't be everywhere
But you can find it in the hearts of those who love you
I feel most at home when we smile together
When we hug
Making you happy is my drug
It's when I feel most alive
I can't wait to go ...

Perspective
Sometimes all you need is a bit of distance
To see things and people as they truly are

For the Pain
I'm not sure what you're going through
I'm not sure who you are
I have no idea what you're doing
Or exactly where you are
The only thing I know is this
I wish I could take away your pain
I wish you didn't need to experience it
The only thing I have to give you is this
<3
All I can offer you is a smile
My thoughts
Some words
And prayers
...

Regrets
I have none
I've taken more than enough risks
Its either fear or pride that stops you from doing the same
I can walk away having no regrets
But can you do the same
Thursday 9th November 2017 9:39 pm
Something about You
What is it about you
That keeps me here
Do you think its your pretty face
That's not all you are
Maybe its your silly ways
That makes me smile
Some days
But that's not really it either
Its more
Your swelling heart
That wants everyone
To feel the love
That you too desire
Wednesday 8th November 2017 9:06 pm
Baby steps
You might find exactly what
You crave
If you would be so brave
To take the first step
Towards meeting somewhere
Along the way
Tuesday 7th November 2017 11:59 pm
That kind of a day
Maybe we both need someone
To come home to
Let's not think
Let's not talk
Let's just find comfort in each other
Monday 6th November 2017 10:43 pm
Actions speak louder...
When two people can't meet part way today
They won't be able to meet halfway one day
And go the distance someday
Wednesday 1st November 2017 6:24 pm
Break the Cycle
It's not that I don't want you...
It's only that I can't stay in this self destructive cycle
Not knowing if its me you want
Not knowing if this is in my head
You were supposed to meet me part way
But you never did...

Deaths Awakening
Death puts Life
Into perspective
What's important to you
What's important to me
It reminds us
That time is not on our side
We shouldn't keep hiding
From the truth
From our truths
Live each moment
You never know
Which one may be our last
Wednesday 1st November 2017 12:47 am
No Winners
I decided to let go
And make him my past
My present decided to walk off too
Making me a passing thought
Theres no winning
Perhaps the future might stay
I lose hope
In these fickle hearts
Monday 30th October 2017 4:22 pm
Once more
Just when she thought
She'd found some truth
He went and showed her
It was never truly hers
Monday 30th October 2017 12:02 pm
Letting go
I let you in a little
And you let me down a lot
I don't know exactly what you've been through
You never let me in enough
I've cried a little
But I know that what we had
Was never enough
I decided to stop waiting
For you
To let me into your life and heart
Now I'm letting go
Of "us"
Sunday 29th October 2017 11:46 pm
Just a little
You weren't that deep
Its true
But I let you in a little
As I'm prone to do
Now I see you around
And we're strangers again
You're a little more broken
But its not me who's to blame
I know i kept trying for you
And you kept idly watching
Maybe one day you'll realise what you let go
I guess we both know
We're not each others happy ending
Sunday 29th October 2017 11:38 pm
Back and Forth
One step forward
Two steps back
We're back to square one again
And I'm so tired of these games
Even the most patient of people have their limits
This cycle can't go on forever
If nothing changes
I must

Lost Souls
We're all a bit lost
Waiting to be found
Trying to find ourselves
Which path to take...
Which relationship to forsake...
What's real and what's fake...
Can't I just drown you in a lake
Shake you awake
Wrap you in my comforting embrace
We're all tired of this limbo
This confusion we've fallen into
This cycle we're stuck in
Let's all just say w...
Wednesday 25th October 2017 10:01 pm
That kind of love....
We've all fallen before
And we've all been hurt before
We've all loved too much
And not been loved enough
We've all broken hearts before
And left scars we abhor
There's nothing wrong with us
Our scars are just a small part of us
A part of who we are
We need to love the pretty parts
Along with the beautiful scars
Only then will we ...
Tuesday 24th October 2017 12:41 am
Meet you there...
You're okay with stalking me
But you're not okay with talking to me?
So which one of us has the bigger issues here?
Thanks for making me smile though
And for your words of wisdom
Its appreciated
Even though its not the compromise we both need
Monday 23rd October 2017 6:02 pm
Dreamy Dreamer
I love your loving dreams...
But what if nothing is as it seems?
Heal before you leap into love once more
I too don't want to break anymore...
Your words are truly beautiful
And I've longed to hear the like of them
But do dreams really come true?
And is it really me that's meant for you?
Or are we both just longing for something?
Time and actions will...

True Colours of You
Your true colours have come to light
And its not a pretty sight
Not the colours of the rainbow
But ugly shades of lies
The anger and indignation has dissipated a little
For you never got close enough to reach my soul
You were not that deep
So now I can finally and happily put our brief encounter to sleep
Saturday 21st October 2017 12:10 am
Hearts and Minds
Your heart and mine
Both broken
Both forsaken
But what others do you carry in yours?
And what do you know of mine?
My heart is big but it only has room for one at a time
If yours is pure
Is it for me or another?
Enough of all the lies
The games
The thing about sparks is they don't last unless you keep kindling the flames
I just need somethi...
Thursday 19th October 2017 10:24 pm
Numb
The tears have dried
I have no more left to cry
I'm numb
Feeling a bit dumb as well
For letting you get to me
Letting you creep into my heart a little
I'm not in love
But perhaps I was starting to get attached...
So quickly?
So easily?
Yeah I'm a sucker like that...
In my defense you did say all the right things...
Your expert lips... An...

Something Real
Nothing is real anymore
Not hearts
Not minds
Not thoughts
Or intentions
It would be wiser to let go of everything and everyone who may not be real...
Only hope is such a hard thing to kill...
It lives on still...

Praying for an end to the Night
She asked herself what was wrong with her
More times than she could count
And each time the answer was the same
There was none...
Why did she feel so much?
Care too much
And love so much
Why?
So much
Yet nothing was ever enough
Nothing was ever right
Still... she tried not to forget
That it can't always be night
And she prayed...

Choose Light
Delve a little deeper
You might find strength you never thought you had
And light from sources you never imagined
Friday 6th October 2017 5:06 pm
Insomnia
Sleep evades me of late
Is this the price one pays for opening their heart and mind?
The price of ones sanity...
Its a high price
I'm not sure I'm willing to pay in stress and unrest
Thursday 5th October 2017 2:06 am
Way Forward
You don't need to be perfect to impress me
I can already see that you have a beautiful soul
But even so I cannot knock against a closed door once more
When you have not done your part
If you are to keep choosing safety
We will keep moving forward in opposite directions
Wednesday 4th October 2017 3:05 am
You and me
When things are as mucked up as can be
I know that all thats left is just You and me...
Monday 2nd October 2017 8:32 pm
More than this (more of a monologue than a poem)
I see you trying but its not enough
I need more than this
You won't move an inch
So why get upset when someone else does?
Am I supposed to be content with your breadcrumbs forever?
Adults shouldnt have to be told how to behave
I never pretended that I would wait forever
And you never pretended to care
Friday 29th September 2017 12:34 am
Mirage
What is the point of love?
When its unrequited
What is the purpose of love?
When it's uninvited
What is the point of love?
When its misplaced
What's the purpose of love?
When its erased
We wander on...
Longing to quench this thirst for love
But all that's there to find...
Is a mirage in the desert
Friday 29th September 2017 12:14 am
Come what may
Come what may
I'm still okay
Although you are too afraid of what might be
There's still something about your eyes
That makes me wonder what you hide inside
I should be angrier
And yet I'm only vaguely annoyed
Perhaps I'm finally learning control
Or I could just be numb
I won't wait
Not because you advise against it
But because life is too short...
Saturday 9th September 2017 1:20 am
Mind Games
I grow weary of these games
Perhaps you are just more of the same...
It was once cute
Your subtle messages
Now its more of an illusion
Or perhaps Delusion
It's time for tiny risks to grow up to be adult ones
Or perhaps its time for being strong
And moving on...
Tuesday 5th September 2017 9:48 pm
Bittersweet Awakening
Unexpected rain
Welcomed by the arid earth
You wafted into my life
Like a breath of fresh air after the cooling summer rains
As unexpectedly as you came
You stirred up forgotten flames
Burning passions I'd thought were long extinguished or at the least only dwindling embers
But alas nothing is built to last in this life
You went as swiftly as you came
Like...

Let's Part dear Crazy Heart
Falling Apart
Falling Apart
My Life
My Heart
Always falling apart
From head to toe
I'm a mess
But you would never know
I don't have a clue which way to go
I need you now...
Your tranquillity to calm my restless soul
Don't fail me now...
I have no other to shield and protect me
From this crazy mess that is
Myself...

Weary Traveller
These days her eyes are often filled with tears
Her mind with sadness and fears
You grow weary of this world fellow traveller
The extra mile, the extra smile
Is it really worthwhile?
When indeed will this journey end? she asks
And where?
Heaven or Hell or will limbo be your abode?
Wherever it may be fellow traveller
In truth we both long for the fina...

Know This
When I missed you
You knew
When I loved you
You already knew
Your quiet confidence could never be mistaken for arrogance
That was the calibre of your character
When we were parting
I think you already knew
I hope you know
That I seek you out when the darkness fills my life
Your memories remind me of the light
Know this
You are my l...
