She is the calm
She is the storm
She is the dawning of each new day
She is beauty
She is nature

Love your mother

witness
gentle gloomy sky
a compassionate witness
to my fragile state of mind

veil
weak winter sunshine
does little to pierce the veil
this mourning morning

Torment
He didn’t want any prying eyes
Didn’t want some well intention soul
seeing the pain and anger that was bubbling just under the surface
Didn’t want anyone asking questions
or offering comfort
Yes he was tormented
but the pain was his alone
So, he bowed his head to hide his face
and walked on

Digging
Though time
and time again
I have tried
Sorrow remains
as ever
by my side
I want to bury regrets,
Shame and memories too
I need to get rid of every last trace
of you
So I’m digging
deep holes
here,
in the back yard
Even though this soil
is proving to be quite hard
I will persevere,
I will follow through
I’ll dig straight on to hell if I have to

Not complaining
It’s a small room
Simple
No frills
But I’m not complaining none
Got a roof over my head
A locked door
And a single bed
No pillow and one thin blanket
But when you’ve slept on the floor
or on the ground
It is a big step up
So I’m not complaining none
There is one small window
It has bars to keep me in
Don’t know why anyone thinks I’d run
I can still see the sun
And clouds
and sometimes a bird or two
I’m not complaining none
They bring me food
Three times a day
It isn’t fancy
But I’m not hungry now
So I’m not complaining none
They call me a basket case
I been called worse
Way worse
I’m not complaining none

defiant
yellow flower blooms
from beneath dead brown leaves
defiant beauty
