I did not come to win the world— I came to feel it bleed. To taste the silence in the hungry mouth, To weep where no one dared to read. To my family— You held my name like worn cloth, never quite knowing what I was stitched to become. But I loved you more than I could say. I only wanted to bring...

“How do I start? How do I start, the story of the end? It starts after you going away, Leaving me astray, Going through it all was a long haul. But now I have arrived at the shore where I don’t feel anything no more, I’ve travelled a long way from you And from new possibilities too, After you I never intended to...

The fidelity  the sin of the flesh, why is it a sin sexuality is a strong and natural desire but often the downfall of the great who lacks respect for lust treats it with a low moral attitude There are the monks of Thailand naked feet in sandals, and one assumes naked bodies under burgundy robes, can so easily fall prey to when a lady...

Sign of new tomorrows? The old ones may just say. Agony, pain, sore sorrows! Doubt, dread and dismay! Wilted flower, came the rain? Death, ye did disdain! Thunderbolts across the main!

O for heroes without song! Sin's light,...

Your smile is like the moon all silver lined, I wanted to be by you, time after time. Your love for sports was quite unreal, But you never gave up that rid and reel. Your humour was loved, loved by us all, But your laugh was the best, best of it all. I watched when you became a man and you...

Your flesh was never warmer than my passion, a flame more intense than you could ever bear. My love for writing poetry is my secret weapon. While I may not claim to be gifted My identity is Black, and words have always motivated me. I can string them together easily, but making them meaningful? That’s...

Monday morning woke up at eight, it was a splendid morning cool before the day becomes serious and demanding attention  belonging to the 1% of people born before the second world war, I'm often awake  in the night before falling asleep again  my first thought was not profound, but about coffee, I had to drink it black since  I had forgotten to buy milk switched...

When you took alcohol from random men and excused it— it caused me distrust. Seeing you wasted that time really messed up all of my brain. It makes me relive those moments— and all I feel is pain. When you got a ride from a...
