The Hand That Guides The Hammer

I carve the space, Erase the waste of past mistakes. We met through fate, life on a plate and its not too late so have no fear, have no fear. I carve the way, tracing the day follow the light fight back the night – Have No Fear – Now that I’m near I’ll keep […]

Intertwine

Sometimes, you just have to take a leap of faith, Trust in yourself and shed the weight that you’ve carried for so long. It’s time to recognise you’re strong Take my hand, let me show you the way, I’ll walk with you out of the dark and into the light of day I’ll be your […]

We All Struggle Sometimes

Have you ever asked for something silently in your head in the dark of night? Have you ever prayed to a god that you don’t really believe in for a sign, or hint, or blessing? Have you ever sat there so scared and confused you’ve worked yourself into hysterics? Well guess what? We all have […]

Sum

This is not the poem that follows on from the previous post Fate – rather this is a poem that I feel sets the tone and compliments what will follow. This poem is called “Sum”.   Out in this back water, The place that felt like home My life was all but slaughtered With nothing left I […]

Fate

I find it fascinating how life seems to be able to give you, on occasion, exactly what you didn’t even realise you needed. Life is funny like that. In recent weeks, I’ve had the great pleasure of letting Fate hand me something that I hadn’t expected – but something I’m glad to have. There is […]

Monday

So I took the weekend off writing and left the desk (shock horror) and ventured into the outside world. It wasn’t great. It was cold, wet, and I slipped over more than once on the ice. Today’s poem can be downloaded from the link below – It’s a collage poem using Found Text from a […]

Fight

This piece is called Fight.  As you guessed it’s about fighting back against life when it tries to pull you down.  It’s also a reminder that even in the depths of despair,  when you truly feel like there is no way out, you still have to fight and carry on because guess what?  IT WILL […]

I Have Anger

Here is the first piece of poetry for you all. It’s called “I Have Anger” and was written around 2013 in one sitting.  It took about 10 minutes. I have anger in my heart, no way to get it out.  I have anger in my heart, without shadow, without doubt. I have anger and it […]

In The Beginning…

I’ve always wanted to write a blog.  I’ve always made excuses not to write a blog as well – whether that’s down to not having enough time, not having anything to say or simply just not wanting to sit down and write one. Now it’s a bit different.  I feel like there needs to be […]
