No One Cares About Superman
Posted on February 12, 2019 8 Comments
I’ve saved the day…so many. With a cape that’s now tattered and torn. Bullets are starting to pierce me, with an ego that’s badly worn. I do not wear any more disguises, for there’s no glory I ever sought to claim. People still pass on by me, and take no notice of this hero’s pain. […]
Dark Fantasy
Posted on February 8, 2019 8 Comments
Oh, beautiful moon, why do you tease me? With fantasy, I know is not real. Darkness always has another plan for me, where light can never celebrate. I dare not chase away the loneliness, for the night will expose my weakness. I have no prayer to use, don’t lie and tell me there’s fate. Go…just […]
Whispers From You

A lull from the hillside early morn, like a whisper from you. I stood in the chill… …with a tear reminder, of what I’ve lost. Sweep me up, walk with me through the valley, take me to the mountain tops. I am brisk, I am alive…for now. Whisper some more to me, until the mutters […]

Come To Me Again

If my trial has ended, why do your stones still lay at my feet? My deepest wounds will never heal until their forgotten. No, always they fester, they ache, like my broken heart which is bled to near death, over and over, as I lay in this cold dark place alone. I had to run […]
A Mermaid’s Lullaby
Posted on January 12, 2019 1 Comment
A hill where a mermaid danced, lay marked by a single stone. Tales left to imagine, on the night’s when the harbour’s alone. The land once rose above her, to be the brand new sky. She screams from beneath the ocean, but no one hears her cry. Come dance again dear lady, I feel your […]
I Can Tell its Home!

Grant me that yesterday tomorrow. I want to run again in November rain. Taste once more, those raindrops. Pinch me because I’m alive. Let me feel it to the bone, that day… I wore the fog home. Seagulls bicker, over drenched catch laid in blood, but that day, no matter. T’was Mother Nature’s chore. All […]
Drown Me
Posted on December 21, 2018 9 Comments
I can no longer hold my breath. I rather drown, then wade in false hope. You’ve given me every emotion I’m capable of, I’ve fallen hard, so many times. How do I keep going? How am I still just suppose? I shout and shout, forgive me, across this universe …only to be a ghost. You’re […]
Moonlight to Morning
Posted on December 13, 2018 15 Comments
I remember nights that seemed only for me. Everything still, silent…time fixed. I sat by shore, lost in its wake. Watched as mossy moorings danced in captivate. The moonlight stretched my little port, reaching for tomorrow, maybe running from yesterday. A lull of loneliness, like a blanket. Protects me from exposure. Suspended in salty bliss, […]
A Ways From Anywhere

Wintery winds howl, calling a bluff. The sky’s story turns dark, when only halfway. Each of my breaths, more and more breath. They followed in dance, but leave me too. To chase drifts that whistle, and those raw gales… God, to the bone. The forest taunts, I hear the scratching. Slowing motion, I’m straight into […]
