Life’s vagaries

Fresh and bracing the wind of change
Flows across bleeding pages
Filled with my story, to rearrange
Facets of my life – new book- future stages

Realise this is not my plot just my story
Read the unique tales already written
Rooted in past mistakes and triumphant glory
Redacted memories may make you smitten

Each chapter filled with serendipity
Events often unplanned have shaped me
Every hurt rooted deep – every joy an epiphany
Ergo the winds of change to own the plot – be free

Absurb to ever see me as a damsel in distress
Angel or devil may both play a part
Although you might see a dragon in a dress
Absolved able to direct the plot if not the story – from the heart

Timed to expire

Timed to expire

Words of love often repressed
Kindness taken for granted – unprocessed
Presumption of thoughts – norms and dreams
We no longer share – future schemes
Drifting along – feather light
Lack of communication – lack of fight

Words of love often suppressed
Bonds and feelings – dispossessed
Living life in a dull routine
Sexual attraction -a boring ‘has been’
Love in limbo – feelings confused
Viewing each other disabused

Words of love often unexpressed
Relationship sunk into mindlessness
Clean the windows, throw light on the soul
View life objectively – eschew control
Find the good reignite the fire
Or the glue in your relationship
Is timed to expire
