Forgotten

I think you have forgotten me
I have not forgotten you
When I spare a glance at the moon
When the rain hits my window pane
I see your face
I see your smile

I think you have forgotten me
I have not forgotten you
When I hear the first birdsong of the day
When I hear a beautiful melody
I hear your voice
I hear your laughter

I think you have forgotten me
I have not forgotten you.

Sweetest Misery

I’ve crashed into the sweetest misery
I would do anything to keep this pain
Pleasurable misery sweeping over me
Love the sting pray for the burn
You are my sweet misery

As they say the tastiest foods are bad for you
You are my chocolate sweet as candy
Taste your sweet misery on my lips
I can’t get enough I’m addicted
You, your soul my sweetest misery

Stunned me caught me in your web
Holding me hostage chained to you
With no desire to run away
I cling to your pain keep it coming
How I love your sweet misery.

Just A Feeling

It was a feeling I had about you
The day I saw you for the first time
This tiny little spark started a fire
The flames sweep through me
Engulfing me in its confusing flames

It was a feeling a fluttering feeling
The first time I heard your voice
I had to remember to breathe
Fate deals me another impossible card
An impossible dream takes hold

It was a feeling a just a slight feeling
The day I first touched you
Electricity that connection grabbed me
Shocked me to my core
A feeling of happiness no matter the issues

Is it the end?

Memories of you rotate in my mind whirling, twirling, fast forward, rewind.
I miss you and it encroaches upon me at odd times and places
My oldest friend we never fought.
It scares me to think I might forget your face one day
Your voice barely clings to my memory
Can you really be gone if memories of you exist? I like to think not.
I still hold you in my heart.
I wonder if you knew how important you were to me to all of us.
It all seems so final, is it?
Maybe you will greet me one day I hope to see you again in time
Until then I will keep your memory,
Cherish our time here keep you locked and safe in my heart.

Heartache

When your heart stops fluttering when she walks by you
When you no longer smile at the thought of her
When you stop waiting for the phone ring to hear her voice
That’s Heartache

When loved ones are gone away
When they are so far away that only memories remain
When you long for their support
That’s Heartache

When you find yourself torn between two souls
When whichever way you choose will hurt one or all
When your decision will change everything
That’s Heartache

When her arms surround you and you feel safe
When she whispers in your ear you feel alive
When she touches you, you feel a deeper connection
That’s Love.

Random update

Good Sunday All

I thought I would update on my general life as poetry is coming in bursts that have no included today on thier list of appearances. Last night I went with my niece and my sister and her partners sister to the carnival, It was so much fun with a child seeing her face light up when she likes something was priceless. (Not so priceless when the big floats scared her aww).

So the short stories are coming along slowly, I mean snails pace slowly but stay tuned when they are done they will appear here first for your reading pleasures.

All the best people stay tuned etc you never know these days when a new poem will suddenly grace me and you with its prescence.

Mwah to all xx

Oh heres a new pic of me I am still alive see lol.

Finding Yourself

So what happens when you realise yourself?
When you suddenly figure out who you really are
What about where you have ended up?
How do you apply your revelations to your existing life?
Does it happen on its own naturally?
Must you force it into its place?
Will you hide it, push it back down?
How would it feel to embrace it?
So take a journey, find yourself, scare yourself, love yourself.

The Right Path

Who can tell where this will lead? Who among us can see how it will end?
Trust in the universe or destiny or probability whichever you choose to follow.
Trust that it will always lead you,
Guide you to the exact place at the exact time you are meant to be there.
I always say everything happens for a reason, I do not always see it at the time,
Eventually I see the reasoning and can accept the past
I always know deep down I will gain something positive from these negatives,
Life is balanced, you just have to look.
Observe from a different perspective.

Where Is She?

Pacing the street hoping to glimpse what she once saw so clearly here
Her life has changed so dramatically so violently
Her view is now clouded by the poisonous clouds
Engulfing her mind slowly infecting her soul
Where is her peace her light her happiness?

Nothing

Blackened tear stains her cheek
She has again been betrayed
Her world again crushed
Her universe engulfed in the nothingness
She realises her tears now dry
She does not feel anything the nothingness takes hold.
