Vikki Coram Poem
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

Vikki Coram Poem
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

Vikki Coram Poem
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.

Vikki Coram Poem
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

Vikki Coram Poem
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

Vikki Coram Poem
Thinking ‘bout her
Thinking ‘bout me
Thinking ‘bout them
And what could have been
Different directions
Different needs
Separate memories
Broken dreams
Separate lives now
In separate homes
Together in heart
But now all alone
Love’s still there
My body is not
Freedom and time
Is now all I’ve got

Vikki Coram Poem
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?

Vikki Coram Poem
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

Vikki Coram Poem
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

Vikki Coram Poem
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
