  • The Shadow

    The dark shadow creeps slowly
    Across the wooden floor
    Slower and slower it gets as
    it heads towards the door.
    Clothed in a cape flowing
    Down to the dusty ground,
    The shadow increases its…

  • Maybe

    She pushes through the throngs of people
    rushing to make her train
    rushing to see him.
    She missed him this morning
    only catching a glimpse
    not seeing the eyes which
    have captured her hea…

  • The First

    He had one hand on her waist. The other was in her hair.
    Oh God.
    Here he was, standing in front of her. Moving closer. His face getting even closer to hers. His soft mouth smiling down at her.

  • Escape

    The lines of water
    coursed across the window pane
    As the train sped in to the night.
    Not wanting to watch the other passengers
    She looked past the water to
    watch the fields flying past.

  • The memory of music

    It sooths my soul
    It dulls the pain
    But making me happy
    All the same
    When I’m sad
    and shed a tear
    It makes me feel
    Like I’m still here.

    It stirs up memories
    Of days gone past
    While …

  • Despair

    Without him I am nothing.
    He is gone.

  • Unconditional.

    "I love you," he said, as he turned slowly towards her.
    Her chestnut hair sparkled in the sunlight, and as she looked up to no an acceptance that she had heard and understood, her eyes gliste…

  • The girl

    With red ribbons in her hair
    Throwing flowers into the wind
    The innocence of Youth.
    Splashes of summer
    catching the twinkle in her eyes
    the happiness of Life.
    Running through the grass
    c…

  • Slow heal

    Shoulders hunched, head down
    Walking quickly – images blur on the way past.
    Legs ache, falling fast
    Slumped against the brick wall
    Looking up at the sky
    Give it one more try

    Time change…

  • New life

    My eyes sparkle with joy
    Not one, or two,
    but three now due
    Happiness of new life
    Thoughts to not detract from new beginnings
    and will keep the circle flowing
    One day they too bring life …

  • Dark

    The door closes
    The key in the lock turns
    No way back through the solid black door
    No lights to be turned on
    No windows to see through
    Darkness engulfs
    No one knocks at the door
    Only one…

  • The girls

    Water splashes as feet run through the stream
    Peals of laughter under the summer sun
    Once ashore, they link arms
    Skipping along the path to destiny
    Golden hair flowing behind
    Talking in wh…
