Don't wait around
stuck in this pit
hoping one day
your flame will be relit

It's not going to happen
so get on with your life
because love is painful
and it cuts like a knife

her silent presence
all-encompassing
wrapping you in her warm arms.

the whisper of her, teasing
oh-so-close

she's your lifeline
without her you struggle to live
she's the very breath
of this wide earth

bottled up,
just for you.

You must re-invent yourself
may your tears turn to sweet dew
that make the leaves of your soul shine



Shhh
Let the wind speak for us



loneliness is not a punishment
loneliness is the sweet companion
that whispers poetry in our ears
