Serendipity

Two souls came together
And two hearts wept with joy
Prepared now, primed
Destined in time
Neither heart knew nor head
What magical moments lay ahead?

Who knew that the sun shone so bright?
Who knew and saw the colour of the sky?
Who knew the true scent of a rose?
Who knew the tenderness of a sigh?

Who knew the sincerity to give?
Who knew the graciousness to receive?
Who knew the emotions of another?
Who saw the miracle of a mother?

Who felt the pleasure of simple joys?
The touch of a hand, the taste of a breath
Who knew captivation would set you free?
Who knew such possibilities?

Who knew the world was so beautiful?
Who knew the grass was so green?
Who knew the vibrancy of life?
Because of you,
I SEE

Our Bed

The centre of my universe
A place, together we laid
We’d talk, we’d share, just be
We cried, we hoped, we prayed

The world outside was turning
Yet I never really knew
Births and deaths occurring
My focus stayed on you

In that bed I dreamt
In that bed lay me
Vulnerable and insecure
Needing to feel free

Free to examine life
Free to feel alone
Free to make my own mistakes
Free to come and go

I let go of your guiding hand
Jumped into life’s deep sea
Never understanding why
I felt this need in me

I still don’t have the answers
And I still don’t understand
But I miss your love, your kindness
And how I miss that hand

A Deep Soul

A deep soul
A wounded heart
She laughs from the outside
She wants to be loved

Can she see her reflection?
Maybe, one day, I’ll know

Her eyes, they speak
Of her joy, of her pain
And I want to be with her
When they truly smile again

I long to hear her laughter
When it’s from within
I long to see her tears
Her vulnerability

I want to be there
To listen, to share experiences
To encourage her, support her
Lover her. As I already do

I want to watch her grow
See the girl become a woman
I want to learn form her
I want to meet her

Keeping Vigil

I watched her closely last night
As I pulled up my chair close to where she lay
Covered her with the king sized bedding 
Kissed her weary brow

I knew that once again I was losing her
Apparent in her animal like stare
I had noticed only an hour before

The indications creep up slowly,
Almost like a creature seeking its prey
Denial does not combat this enemy within
Knowledge is the most powerful thing

Feed the demon pills
Via her beautiful mouth
Then wait silently, for sleep to come
And hope that when she awakes 
A part of her awakens also

24 Hours

Twenty four hours
Only lasts a day
It’s never really long enough
For all I’ve got to say

So many times we never speak
Or say the truth we feel
Afraid of somehow looking weak
And so are standing still

Life will pass us by
As sands of time run out
So grab each moment while you can
And see what life’s about

El

Ever glued to gaming
Literature’s not for him
Loving him for all he is
In spite of all the din
Of course I don’t feature
That would never do
Take a leaf from my book 

And get a cat instead

A Thousand "us"

For Claire x



Do I love you?
Those who have loved, will know
Do I adore you?
Incredibly so
Are we soul mates?
Yes.  I recognise
A thousand “us” within your eyes

Am I beside you?
Every step and breath, you take
Am I forever?
The promise, we made
Will love last eternal?
It already has. I recognise
A thousand “us” within your eyes

Empty Love

Words without meaning
Said without emotion
Like empty love
Without devotion

A heart that pumps
But never lives
An energy that takes
But never gives

You know it’s real
But scared to change
Would sharing love
Feel so strange?

Tolerable

No dreams
Only fantasies
In the bed of insecurity

No vision
Eyes open
But not to see

You’re just a reflection
In-sightless
Incapable.  Incomprehensible.
Tolerable.

Hold me now
Take away my feelings
Sway me. Save me.

Sophia's Poem

SOPHIA’S POEM


Cheerios across the floor
Pen marks on the walls
Paint on my new carpet
I can’t take it all!

Books touched by jammy fingers
Chocolate on my cat
Boogies on my sofa
Who could live like that?

Bedtime’s like a war zone
Toothache, sore head, sore thumb
Can’t sleep, not tired, I’m hungry 
I want to see my Mum!

Start over in the morning
The Cheerios again!
One sock, one shoe, no jumper
Late for school again!

Then there are those moments
When we spend time alone
Colouring or building blocks
And I see how she’s grown

She’s the one I need
Whenever I am blue
No ones hugs can love me
The way Sophia’s do

For a little girl of seven
She’s really full of wit
And because of all she gives me
The mess?
I can live with it!
