Rejection always a bitter gall Dejection written through inner walls Emotions built up through the years Confidence never deployed, negative image fears Wanting to be loved, to be recognised Hiding needs under a thin disguise Each rejection, underlines the lack Stepping forward, no going back Needs to be held and validated Instead gives love ,uncompensated… Continue reading Find inner calm?

Running from life
Hot sun, running fast , dry throat Sweating, panting, heavy slope On the brink of decline Dive into a vat of white wine Now trying to stay afloat Running from life. Footnote
It started with a sniffle
It started with a sniffle Then a little cough Snuffles on my pillows I didn’t give a toss Suddenly I seemed much warmer Then chills, up and down my spine My nose started dripping My mind was in decline Then the mucus fairy Waved her little wand My chest filled up with mucus Like filling… Continue reading It started with a sniffle
If I sang it again
Why do I cling on to things that have gone If I sang it again, would the refrain be strong Would my idealised memories really come true? Or would it be just the same, a future taboo I need to live in today find a new path Yesterday has gone, it’s ashes in the hearth… Continue reading If I sang it again
Lust or Amore?

Marking the page
Out of my mind, onto the page, Ideas stream, words just rage, Calmouring for release, urging me on, My love for life, drives the marathon, Creativity tantalises, pushes the pace, The need to transcribe, a daily race, Wanting to engage, to evoke a reaction, Portraying all of life, immense satisfaction.
Inner Light
