• Moments

  Sometimes I can’t catch a moment and months fly by
  And then like dust in the wind it gets right in my eyes announcing it’s sudden arrival
  Yet those moments in which I’m lost in thought about my love
  Those are the strangest sweetest pains of all
  At once the sensation of having no ground strong enough to catch the sinking feelings and then it catch me all the same
  Bittersweet nostalgia of all yesterday’s laughter and love swirling above my head
  Though time after time I see more and more that is not fragment of memory but a fictitious few seconds of a moment that never happened
  I realise now that these fleeting seconds are hope
  Hope of days to come when my love and I will chase the sun and leave the lonely nights behind
  Those are my most cherished moments

• The Bus stop

  I’ll be waiting by the bus stop
  Come find me if you can
  Opposite the gift shop
  Come find the lonely man

  It’s Wednesday night once again
  And that means date night you see
  I’ll be waiting for my best friend
  Look for me by our tree

  The one on which we carved our names
  Down by the waters edge
  Where we once danced unashamed
  Where you fell in to my arms outstretched

  I’ll be holding autumnal flowers
  As the summer has drifted away
  Come soon though, it’s been 8thousand hours
  And my beard grows greyer by the day

  Buzz me in, I’ll be outside your gate
  With two rollies in my pocket
  It’s cold out here and getting late
  And all I have left, is your picture in my wallet

• Little Thief

  Like a cloud threading through the breeze up high
  Your hair dances in the wind with childish delight;
  spread like wings catching the final glints of summer
  You fly south to escape the winter and here I am,
  huddled next to the crackling warmth of your memory
  Patiently awaiting the return of the sun
  Longing to see the light you stole away on your wings

• Tribute

  A doorway, an opening, a way out
  A place where echoes are lost
  Where the sun kisses the horizon;
  the clouds whisper dreams the breeze carried in
  Where eloquence conveys intricacies with simplicity
  A cave for the coward and podium for the pompous
  Allowing the dreamer to fly, the heartbroken to cry
  and the madman to die.
  The poem.
