She stands near the broken glass,
red rose petals scattered across the floor.
She weeps, with shards of glass still trembling in her hands.

Her soul.
Her heart.
It is all gone now.
All that remains is the shattered... [read more] |

Those daisies in the garden,
with faces that look like you,
as bees gently kiss their petals
the way I wish I could kiss you.

and carry every flower away,
leaving me with nothing
but memories of yesterday... [read more] |

How do you measure grief?
Is it in the hours you lie awake, staring at ceilings that never answer back?
Or in the way your shadow seems heavier than your body?
Do you weigh it in footsteps

I GUESS MOSES SAID IT BEST
TEN COMMANDMENTS TO DIGEST
SENT FROM GOD AT HIS REQUEST
TO BE EASILY ACCESSED

July sky is the colour of wheat slate.
No one here cares about rockets over the Atlantic.

Re‑wiring lines that history made.
They count their steps through six–seven,
And turn their eyes away from heaven,
Forgetting truths they’d rather leaven—
Not seven‑eleven, nor nine‑... [read more] |
