I saw a small child in a department store
Playing in the aisle
He was running here and there

But they appeared not to care

After all the shopping was done
They realized
They could not find...

Slightly enclosed
A cat have birth musn't she give up

What happens in the past, stays in the mind. 

Sitting on the floor,  pen in hand, a wealth of books surround me, comfortable in my familiarity.

The naïve youthfulness fades,
A party to celebrate life and remind what will be left behind.
A mothers anguish, stressed, anxious and fearful,
An embrace, longing and full of love that only a mother can give.

Face framed ornate, or curl corner blu tacked up
Childhood fanciful daring must softly be contained
Dispicable hovers inside cherub cheeked adorable

Step inside my nightmare
Greet the horror that lurks within
Come look in the eye of loathing
Observe the war I can never win

Overpower and obliterate an ill
I have to pound it into nothingness
Let...

To that first drop of tears that ushered in the storm
I was too young to understand, but I knew an evil hand

I have a little budgie, his colour is white and blue,
I am teaching him to talk, so far his words are few.
He sits upon my finger, and lets me stroke his chest,
While telling him he’s...

Till the face is flat pummelled by angry elements
Whose twinkly eyes neither blink nor steal a hood
In case, in a split second, humanity is left insecure.
Whose time to...

Down the runway and we finally take...

This tanned foreign man
Muscled and handsome
As i watched him step on my island

His long brown hair
Mm, shoulder length
I went weak at the knees
Losing my strength

The evening drew in
As i sat on...

Walking down the tarred road in haste
Beholding my watch that revealed the running time since I was late,
Disregarding my immediate world
And the activities around me that did hoard,
I had only one wish upon my head
