One Inch To Grave
One inch to grave 
For a heart that's brave 
On a way uphill 
The going was like self - kill 

Where some ill minds pray for demise 
But the heavens won't flip the dice 
Cause the time was not yet ripe 
For his skies to cloth in stripe

Unsung Hands
How can you unsee an etched wound ?
The name will tell the moon.
An empty sky now calls for
the rains.

What was it-
the ceremonial farewell ?
A dependable pain now starts
pulling out the sharpnels from the body. 

You may call it
meaningless. My poem now
moves between the stings. Somebody
was going for a merciless kill.

Breaking Up
She said our love was through,
And added, going in for the kill,
‘I’m sorry, I don’t love you;
I never have and never will -
This relationship gives me no thrill.’

I said, ‘I wish you’d stay.’
I’d thought our love would always be -
But then I turned and walked away:
Without her there to nag me,
There’d be no fights and I was free…

Happy Heart, 2nd June, for Francine’s contest...
