It's never goodbye


Funerals are odd. You are farewelling the deceased and you are meeting friends again that you haven't for the past 30 years. Funerals are reunions, under sombre circumstances. But I do love the feeling of love, warmth and connection after seeing and hugging old friends. Makes you wonder, if we do grow apart ever?

Who writes?


But who writes for the poet? 

Who writes to them when their words have finished and the ink has dried up? 

Who inspires them again when all words are dead and gone? 

Who shows them words that are just for them with each letter penned with adoration? 

Who writes to the poet? 

Ruined


People ruin things. 

We ruin things. 

But, do you know what? 

You - I'd love to meet you again but we'd do things a little differently. 

I wouldn't say 'hello' first and you'll never notice me.

Intention


 Just move on with pure intentions. 

The things that don't matter will fall by the wayside.

Protected


The setting Sun on a Winter's day, reminds me to nurture my heart. 

To keep it warm and protected from external elements. 

To not allow things to upset its equilibrium. 

To maintain hope that there'll be light again tomorrow.

No comparison


Vision, ideas, dreams and destiny. 

That's what I fight for. 

The rest is noise.

Crave


"What do you crave?"

"Hmmm? Solitude, just being there in the moment. Knowing that I do not need to be anywhere else. I crave quiet, so much quiet that I can hear my heartbeat. Peacefulness, so much, that birds sit with me. I crave that I do not need another, so I know not to give so much importance to them, or that my good mood relies on them. I crave I am happy in my own. Sufficient and honest enough to myself that I am all I ever need".



Mine

These words that I pen are not about you.
