Warts and all

Warts and all, us humans, we struggle and fall, we rise and we crawl, and we learn, and we learn nothing at all, and the frailties of the human condition, are scary to all, but the strengths, they help us balance all, and if we are educated, all the emotions and the feelings, and the […]

War

War, we make and mend, and in our troubled times we do our best, we persevere and if we survive, we are blessed, for luck and fortitude can be a second guess, and no matter the mind or the intellect, a split-second decision can bring about great distress, for the screams and the sighs can […]

Wanton and wild

Wanton, wild and weird, so it comes, from out of nowhere from amongst the trees, and the sounds it makes are of pandemonium, and so surreal, it is hard to believe, for what stands before me, does not look like you or I, but of the galaxy, and from a distant place, that has barely […]

Wanting

Wanting, wanting, wanton, Into the rain, and the grey as the raindrops fall, wishing for the sun with such a mind so ever full, full of little hope into the rain and the grey I walk, and I look for you in the autumn as the leaves do fall, for you are a solitary thing, […]

Wandered

Wander as you will

Wander as you will as the lion in the maze, and consider your options with visions of clarity, and by educated ways, for with such courage and strength, you will turn the corner of the darkest of days, and so, your eyes will meet the challenge, because if you know yourself, you are a lion […]

Walking away

Walking away, forever and a day. Walking far away, far away with nothing to say, but with only misery in my heart, that tears me, that tears me painfully apart, and that destroys my mind, when I think of the heartache that you have sent my way, for you were so cruel to me and […]

Walk

Walk. Do not talk. Walk and be. Walk and be, and stride forwards towards the sea, and walk, but do not talk, just walk, and be, be happy, for if you stay behind there is only misery, and in your brain how rattled is your sanity, so, begin your journey in solitude, and run as […]
