To Sit

30/12/202229/12/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

to sit alone,
hidden from the rain

darkening the afternoon sky

alone with my thoughts
staring at the raindrops
falling hard towards the ground

to sit with you
the collector of my thoughts
shaping poetry you won’t read

tickled by your humour
understanding we are different,
yet we are the same

Posted in love, PoetryTagged alone, poem, poetry, sit, with you

Inspiration: Cherish, Tenuous, Window

looking out
a heart’s desire
cobbled streets
romance once set in
the visible sea
no sign of the ship
waiting for x to come home
the cut-out walls
clean glass for a short time
amorous longings
silence louder than a bomb
a heart lost at sea
impossible to cage freedom
all the more exciting
when x brings the sea home

Moving Apart

23/11/202221/11/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

We both grasp the things we once thought we had, those things that made our love a fire.

Since David died, you said I changed. I did. I started to write again after many years.

With each word, we move further apart until the last word we say is goodbye.

Roots of Love

21/11/202221/11/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

Twisted bodies
intertwined
the roots of love

Hemlock dreams
gnarled twists
do devour hearts

Agony & Ecstasy
frozen
together forever

Love’s Word

16/11/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

We look towards the horizon without saying a word;
you, and I know we are beyond those words.

Yet we dream, we laugh, and we think of one word;
we look, we think, and we say love’s word.

Alone

10/11/202203/11/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

Almost part of the sky,
as the embrace of solace eases the sadness.

You will be sitting at home reading or playing a game,
yet you’re not now.

Now you’re just ash,
and I am now alone.

Endings

09/11/202202/11/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

I often lament the endings.
Crying on the couch about missing you.
What would happen if you died and I lived?
What would happen if I died and you lived?
The last glimpse of you is like the sea;
I’m always longing to be close to you again.

Her Love

the flowers of a heart are so true
she holds them close just for you

this love is brown and wild blue,
so unabashed in her love for you

You

Through misty rain,
in the grey light of day,
I see you clearly.

The Moor

09/10/202208/10/2022 C and K WordsLeave a comment

The rugged old landscape,
I ran across the moor
to see my love once more.

Again, I run across the moor.

The rugged rocky landscape,
called me to run once more.

I run along,
I run along once more,
To see my love along the moor.
