Invisible 2

~

Chosen for her easy nature

Pliability, malleability

Plasticine-like quality

To be moulded into the perfect wife

To share his ambitions

His dreams and drive

T’wards the perfect life

~

And she, in love with love

Flattered and thrilled

Sweet-talked and cajoled

Happy to be chosen by this boy

From all the girls around

Was quite giddy with joy

To be the one he’d found

Memories…

Memories…
~~~~

Fragrant memories bloom

In the garden of my mind

Their bitter-sweet perfume

Overtaking from behind

C’est la vie

Songs of Joy

Songs of Joy

Songs of joy
Myriad bright butterflies
Dancing in fields of flowers
I suppress
Sounds of sorrow
Sobs of sadness
Bending my pain
In submission to His will

DREAMS

DREAMS

Spin me a tale of knights
And fair maidens,
Of Braveheart slaying the dragon;
Keep me entranced
With victories of good over evil
That I’m at peace as I lie in my bed,
And the pain dissipates in my head
Bowing to the power of words and actions
That surround me,
And take over my mind while I sleep.

Empty Spaces

Empty Spaces

What fills the empty spaces
In your head?
Does a tune play
As a backdrop for today?

What fills the empty spaces
In your head?
Don’t rearrange
Things you cannot change.

What fills the empty spaces
In your head?
Don’t hold fast
To memories of the past.

Dream dreams, make plans,
The morrow is on its way
And just around the corner
Is a brand new day!

Nostalgia

Look towards the Future

Nostalgia

It’s no good living in the past,
With selective memories
Pleasantly seducing
The feelings in your head,
Because the past is dead.

By remembering the good
And eradicating the bad,
The dreams are false,
The past is lost,
It has gone to waste.

You have no choice
But listen to the voice
Coming from your heart –
The past will drag you down
And watch while you drown.

The future has everything
You need to start again,
To generate fresh dreams
And help you to revive
The potential of your life.

Our Land of Dreams

Our Land of Dreams

In our land of dreams
I will wait for you, my lover.
In a faraway place
I will be yours forever.

In our land of dreams,
Just you and me as one,
With the stars and the moon
To keep us safe from harm.

In our land of dreams
We will live while this world sleeps,
And our hearts will dance
Evermore in joyfulness.
