Lowercasemmmmmm

the ghost of the way we were

I follow us around the house
Singing, laughing and dancing
Tepid images from a yesterday
The ghost of the way we were
The magnetic draw of the others eyes
Our world was concealed, ours alone
We existed just for each other
When we were more than just memories
 
Now, it seems our love has faded
Still shining, but behind the scenes
Life gets in the way, turns us jaded
our love, weathered, has seen better days
And as tears replace the happy smiles
As empty hearts are fraught, slowly dying
We both realise, years away we’ve wept
Wondering if it was ever worth trying

(2013)

not much else to say

My eyes hurt from vision stale As thoughts consume of angry tales Of how dust was blown from a brida… And colours danced on finger nails Me, I don’t have much to add

in the cradling arms of madness

a voice of a long yesterday hands you a reminder of who you re… its cadence so soft and gently lad… the spine of its tome lives to adj… a shroud of a peaceful empathy

then again...

you’ll always be the last to know things of real and true value if you persist on throwing punches at perceived awkward questions you’ll be haunted by past mistakes
