Ground to a halt far from where I wish I could be, ground to a halt and stuck upon choices upon choices, and deliberating because I cannot decide, I cannot decide what or who to be, and I have so many choices in modern society, that I am spoiled rotten, and with this many choices…

A collection of posts featuring my poems.
Grim faced
Grim faced and ashen, never more begotten by your negative experiences, that through chance have slighted you and jaded you, and come to rest so heavily in your mind, and in your heart, and unfortunately, it is sad but true that you, you will not soften, and you will not get out of the rut…
Grief and sorrow
Feelings of grief, feelings of sorrow, emptiness inside, empty and hollow, and no joy around to beg, steal or borrow, and only darkness to give, the darkness in which you live, and that you cannot get rid of, and that eats away at you and that clouds your heart, and that makes you wish, not…
Greyest of greys
Greyest of greys, grey, grey, grey, oh, woe is me today, oh, woe is me, for this weather is foul, and it robs me of my humour so easily, and how I wish for the sun, and for the grey and the clouds to go away, because I really cannot stand this all day, grey,…
Grey clouds
Grey clouds, grey skies, grey clouds, mixed with the most beautiful blues, dark and light, colourful hues, fluffy clouds, fluffy clouds on the loose, free to go where they please, free to go where they choose, free, and passing so gently across the sky, and passing across my sunglasses, and passing across my eyes, yes,…
Greed
Greed, resources, and the failure to listen, and the failure to understand, because war is ambivalent, and it has such contempt of man, and such is war, because in how many brutal ways, does it throw humanity to the floor, and people scream and scream and beg for peace, but are slaughtered mercilessly, and endlessly,…
Greatness
Greatness, goodness, light and dark, compassion, tenderness, and broken hearts, a brighter tomorrow? A brighter tomorrow at the dawn, to the sound of the lark, to the sound of all the birds that nourish the heart, in the sunlight by the river, reflecting on why you left my world and tore it apart, why, why,…
Greatly
Self-pitying. Greatly underappreciated, greatly overwhelmed, greatly needing, greatly wanting to be absolved, absolved for your part in the number of broken hearts, that you have left in a trail behind you, and the countless bodies of people, that you have torn verbally apart, and yet, you want pity now that you are alone, you want…
Great sheets of rain
Great sheets of rain, the sound of raindrops, the hushed quiet of the evening, the raindrops falling, falling rapidly out of the sky, as you sit and write a letter to a friend, thousands of miles away, great sheets of rain, and on the other side of the world the sun, the sun, so far…
Great pillars of wisdom
Great pillars of wisdom, are no use if no one listens, and so, too great works of the mind, and great advices given, for they are truly not much use at all if no one listens, and great intellect wasted it is a terrible shame, and what, what is the use if you talk until…
