Dayness

like waking up from a year long dream

lost but not gone

the same but different

swimming in the deep

never knowing 

how far you can go

until life makes it so

like the suns shone

forever

now you can let it go.

Snow of White

As I take flight

in late night

to seek my White Knight

a glitter of light
in the darkness of white
a moment before twilight

your lips
blood red
not quite white
the coldness bites

wish as I might
our kiss
lasts forever

like last night.

Fortnight

A hallway

dark like black

the click

of my heels

echoes

the emptiness

that your back.

Graffiti

It’s all around me

everyday I walk by

your poetic pain

spray painted in vain

or it is art

thought  out

who am I to say

on my way

to my ivory tower

what is on this wall

that comes

from your colourful soul.

End of Summer

I’m one

with the sun

these last

couple of weeks

the last of

stifling heat

I wish would

forever keep

I pack my bag

well aware

when the

cool night air

whispers

summer’s fading

it’s like

 a lost love affair.

Mermaid

Across the sea

beyond the concrete wall

is where I want to be

swimming like a mermaid

I would so have it made

not be real

just for a day.

Leaving London

Before the rain

the sun drenched this town

not likely this time of year

wandering around in my royal gown

tasting London beer

meeting folks

disguised as blokes

my castle so high

must flee

if only for awhile.

Forgiveness

What keeps you awake

is your soul

protecting your heartbreak

their spewing of bile

with the mask of a smile

that makes you feel 

completely unreal

try to surrender

your mind to peace

& the flood of anxiety

will cease

forgiveness

will lift that

burden of hate

& give you faith

the power to move on

to trust another soul

to someday bond.

Modern day.....

witch

roaming the streets of London

no one notices her
in this time
but one
remembers her
spells that
 were quite divine.
