Image from Pexels These are the empty daysWhen the silence between the sentencesIs overwhelming.The barrenness of my lifeComes into full view.I am ashamedOf how little I have left.Devoid of the sparkleThat others say they see,How could they knowI’m only pinning up my broken smile?The silence is consumingReminding me of what I have lost.Filling cups withContinueContinue reading “Empty days”

Why did you?
Why did you have to be so confident? So talented? So intelligent? I wasn’t looking for anyone to take up space in my heartYet you came alongFilling up the hollow expanse.

Author’s own image Days by the ocean,Seeking healing and comfort in the arms of the sea.Just me and memory stained beaches.Cold water teasing my toes,Warm thoughts reverberating around my mind.

Healing timeContinueContinue reading “Ocean remedy”

Locked up
I wrote some sweet words about you today.But like all of the thoughts I keep at bay,I fastened a lock and sent them away,They never will see the cold light of day.
While I’m asleep
Imagine from Pexels What do you do while I’m asleep? What’s your day like and who do you meet? Do you greet the day with a happy smile, Or does waking up take you a while? Do you have some tea and a piece of toast, Or is it black coffee that you like theContinueContinue reading “While I’m asleep”
Confused Muse
If a man decided to pick a fair muse, Why would I be the one he’d choose? If onto my heart his love he poured, I wouldn’t know how to be adored.
