You rise again, hanging quiet in the dark, as you always do: Watching. Waiting. Listening. You don't knock. Never have. I feel your eyes: Patient. Waiting. I never ask if you have time. You always do. Even when the night is crowded, and others talk, you leave a little space for me. I speak softly… Continue reading My Confidant: A Poem
I searched for love in places worn and widein books and cafés, and in strangers' eyes.A restless heart with far too much to hide,I chased a spark beneath the lonely skies. I sent my words like messages in flight,half-hopeful texts I hoped would somehow land.Each read or left unread, a fading light,the silence digging deep… Continue reading Eternal Love: A Poem
In the dead of night, when even stars seem to fade, a faint glow lingers. Not loud, not bright, but stubborn, unyielding. The lantern glows softly. It doesn’t fight the shadows, doesn’t shatter the silence, doesn’t promise a clear path. A quiet presence, a soft pulse beneath all that was lost. It hums beneath the… Continue reading The Lantern: A Poem
They all say "it will be beautiful" but no one said how silence can deafen. . A routine appointment turned into so much more. Meeting you early was not the plan. . I was a storm of questions, belly stretched tight. What if I break? What if you do? Why can I no longer keep… Continue reading Learning How To Breathe: A Poem
It is the year that I am truly challenging myself. This time it's with acrostic poetry - definitely not my forte, but it was fun to give it a go! Acrostic poetry is a form of verse where the initial letters of each line, when read vertically, spell out a word or message. The theme… Continue reading Acrostic Poetry
In this year of challenging myself, I have given an inverse poem a go! I found this style of poetry incredibly difficult to do. It took a lot of writing and re-writing but I think I managed to encapsulate the style! An inverse poem is a form of poetry where the lines or words can… Continue reading Unbridled Minds – A Symphony of ADHD: A Poem
Amidst the whispers of the night, Blossoming love in soft moonlight. Caressed in shadows, love takes flight. . Dancing hearts, a gentle sway, Echoes of a serenade play. Fluttering feelings here to stay. . Gentle whispers of a love so right, Harmony resonates, a sweet delight. Intertwined hearts, souls so bright. . Journeying through the… Continue reading Feelings of Love: A Poem
In echoes of night, the stars arise, Their gentle glow adorns the sky, A dance of light, a waltz, a guise. . Each constellation tells no lies, In whispers, secrets passing by, In echoes of night, the stars arise. . The moon, a pearl, within its ties, Casting its spell, a lullaby, A dance of… Continue reading Echoes of Night: A Poem
In the early morning hours, new life begins,Heart full, mind racing, touching soft baby skin.New life starts for mother and child,A new journey, a new identity, how wild. In the hush of dawn, a lullaby takes flight,As a mother's heartbeat echoes through the night.Each breath, a melody, a gentle hum,Guiding dreams till the morning sun… Continue reading Motherhood: A Poem
In a realm where wonders collide,Where life's tapestry starts to reside,There exists a symphony so immense,The dance of senses, a gift immense. First, behold the eye's profound sight,A painter's brush with colours so bright,The world's canvas, a masterpiece,As vision unveils the beauty, never to cease. Ears attuned to nature's melodic spell,Whispers of wind, tales that… Continue reading Life’s Symphony: A Poem
