January in photos

This came as a bit of a shock to me because usually I have between 30 and 50 photos that I’ve taken during the month. I ve almost not used my phone or camera at all in January. I put it down To mostly recovering from cancer treatment and being quite unwell with a chest infection and it pretty much raining nonstop for the whole month.

Definitely came as a surprise though….

Cut my head and become property of facebook

Onwards

 

One Day, we meet when all is done

where day bleeds into night

And memories slip through our hands

So worthless now seem all your plans

Will you still know me, well you might

Though recollections could be none

 

What seemed so real and most profound

At heart of cause and plight

Is tossed like ships on raging seas

And pious men fall to their knees

Where you stand proud with clearer sight

But it still lies froze deep beneath the ground

 

But nothing stirs beyond the veil

where you so loud protest

Each test you failed in a fool’s crown

Your kingdom to its needs brought down

So say goodbye and go to rest

And feel the cold as heart slows, skin turned pale

A

Been a while since I waffled…

I held A moment in my hands and held it to the light

And rolled it through my fingers, mix of shades of dark and light

Then, scrutinised and sanitised

And pulled and picked apart

Drained it of emotion, felt its fading, beating heart

.

I found A moment in the dark and hid it from the sun

Swore to keep it safe and secret and to show it to no one

But it slipped through clutching fingers

And I lost it, gone from sight

The promise of enlightenment, neglected in the night

.

I took A moment for myself and promised to take stock

To count the toll of carelessness, and return to my rock

of things I love and those I know

Which shelter from the storms

And heart and hearth burn brightly, and the fires that keep me warm

Now in the calm

Some rhymey stuff

These words, these thoughts, these in between

The lines, the sheets, the days and dreams

This place he finds her,madness screams

As nothing ever lasts.

Each syllable twists in the wind

Words whisked away, she cant rescind

Or even hide where they have sinned

And clings to hopes now dashed.

Forlorn until time heals and mends

To keep from harm the heart pretends

Until new starts warm cold dark ends

Their pain slips to the past.
