This is my,

very last love,

song to you.

It is time to,

say goodbye,

and move,

on.

 

I heard, our tune,

on the radio today,

it took me back.

Oh – how the years,

have dropped away.

 

I stopped to listen,

I thought things through,

a silent tear escaped,

as I remember how,

I still love you.

 

The years have come,

and the years have gone,

without you by my side,

the echoes of my yesteryear,

sing, always on my mind.

 

This is my,

very last love,

song to you.

It is time to,

say goodbye,

and move,

on.

Blue Moon Blue

 

 

 

 

Giving up and,

giving in…

a writers’ pain,

a lovers’ dream.

 

Blue moons come,

and blue moons go,

the pain remains,

of losing you.

 

The thought of,

having you no more,

is like the song,

without the score.

 

To give you up,

without a doubt?

but only when,

the blue moon’s out.

[Blue grotto, Capri Island, Italy] (LOC)

 

 

 

 

 

These walls imbued,

with poet’s mood,

whilst words refrain,

deflecting pain;

the primal scream,

relives the dream,

of love once scorned,

this life sojourned.

I hang on your words,

like a condemned man,

waiting, waiting, waiting;

the hour glass ticking,

moods pensive and tense.

To and fro, fro and to…

Cadaver pendulum swinging,

this way and that,

that way and this…

Tides ebb and flow,

moons wax and wane,

days come, weeks go.

Still waiting, waiting…

ever waiting, for

just one word,

from,

you.

Maths

 

 

 

 

 

How can I tell

you what to do

when I am more

messed up x 2

 

How could I tell

you how to be

when I am more

unsure x 3

 

How can I hope

you love me more

when I am so

alone x 4

 

How can I live

this lonely life

when I am with

my grief x 5

English: Crossroads at Over Compton At this sm...

 

 

 

 

 

 

Did I spy a secret,

in the corner of your eye?

If you were to tell me,

would it make me cry?

 

Do you think it’s worth it,

to keep up this charade?

Life is complicated,

why make it so hard?

 

Would it not be better,

to go our separate ways?

To accept that it’s all over,

and fight another day.

Planet

 

 

 

 

 

 

The moon and I,

we are like that –

She said…

crossing her fingers,

behind her back.

 

The sun and I,

I cannot lie…

We crossed our paths

behind a cloud,

his face does hide.

 

The world and I,

we are as one,

soul mates and lovers,

a trilogy –

with the moon and sun.

Waterfalls

 

 

 

 

 

Do not tell the moon

to never rise again.

Do not dismiss the sun

from the summer sky.

Do not tell the snow

it cannot fall.

Do not force the rivers

to flow uphill.

Do not tell me

to stop loving you.

Romantic Heart form Love Seeds

 

 

 

 

I read my old love poems,

the other day,

they made me look desperate,

in a cloying kind of way.

 

What was I thinking,

when I wrote those?

Possessive and needy,

I cringe to my toes.

 

I really did love you,

of that there’s no doubt,

but it seems quite absurd,

now, the way it came out.

 

Although I look back,

I was only a child,

I think that I thought,

I was dangerous and wild!

Graveyard [1]

 

 

 

 

Sitting in the gardens,

admiring flower beds,

will you still remember me,

when I am long dead?

 

Reflections on my past life,

no longer hurt my heart,

for they are now just stories,

from which I am apart.

 

Mental chatter ceases,

calm imbues my soul,

wisdom and compassion,

start to make me whole.

 

Although I’m reminiscing,

of all that never was,

I still miss you dearly,

no reason just – because…
