Long Watching the clock Poems

a lonely place.
It's nothing to do with that person
who asked how are you? this morning.
It's to do with staring through
fear-frosted windows
as snow sugar-sifts the street,
watching through dark windows
as firework flowers burst to bloom in a...

7/19/2019
This darkness is all I know, 
a widow's wardrobe of funeral clothes.
It hangs curtained under my eyes, 
the seed inside me grows allowing the little girl I was to die.

Insomniac sleep walking down the streets,...

A question, a sentence all made since, 
My apologies indeed,1 to the 2,3….

A man a watch, watching it as a clock slide by, 
Dear fox.
Go seek out a dinner...

Became someone that i knew i didn't want to be
Society grabbing me by the throat telling me to be me
But who are they to say...

How empty can an inbox possibly be?
Not unlike a door..... practically off at hinges
The paint is definitely peeling
More than one shutter has fallen astray. 

One piece at a time

Have you ever seen that?
How old houses....

Protecting a kingdom in threat of folding

Caring only for the almighty buck 
From the north 
Sharks were present for...

Tucked away in this lovely town of harmony
where tourists visit often
and our bears wander in society!

Unable to Relate
2010

There he sits, across from me
Patiently peeling two eggs
Same lunch each day
Two eggs in between two slices of bread with muster, yogurt, apples, pear
Peculiar is he
Entertaining I must say
Laughter takes over
Reminiscent of the...

Fading

[V1]
Making dinner just for one again
Searched my whole life for my best friend
And as the sun brings up another day
I know deep inside it'll end the same way
In the night I still reach out for...

Darling, for you all night I have yearned
For hours I have simply tossed and turned
Watching the clock as 4 AM just ticks on by
Just can't get to sleep, God only knows why

I know very well...

Get it straight from the heart 
From this poet 
Who dreams as dreamers do, 
Watching the clock of time tick away 
The hours so new.

I fell again.

I just have to get back up and brush it off again.

Looks like it's back to the books again.

Plotting and scheming a way out.

Desperate in my ways, and still cant figure it out.

Prayed...

How many days are there, in our all consuming weeks
Not enough, too many, perhaps we need a little tweak
For people that slave hard, days don’t require a name
There just continuities of time, without a rhyme...

Since morning I’m calling you, no answer!
Who’s the hell that has kept you busy, indifferent?
How could you forget to wish me damn lover?
The roses are drying up waiting for you, nonchalant!
Please pick up the phone,...

A heart broken in two is a pain I know very well
It’s like being in prison within a very small cell
The loneliness it brings seems more than you can bear
