The Hill Runners (A New Poem)
The Hill Runners
Hill running is something you admire.
It’s in your blood, North Yorkshire’s
Moreish love of loneliness
How the heather heavy tragedy
Makes mountains sides romantic,
Peaks magnetic as a pole star’s pull.
I know you dream of them, those grim,
Uncomplicated, headlong men.
You can see heroic silhouettes –
Black dot specks on blue hillsides

Tiger Mountain
I have fallen for the mad ones
and the sad ones
and the ones who don't know what they want

confused depression for deep thinking
I've tried to heal the cracked ones
and piece the broken ones together...
Oh I have tried to climb that mountain
with broken ankles...
I have lived off the wild ones

Creatives Collide
Stop standing on my shadow
Why are you trying to hijack my dreams?

For you
Her heart beats to the rhythm of a broken tune
Staccato
Unable to soar
Like an unfinished song
She longs to be complete.
Her heart is gold, yet tarnished
Impacted by the years

Silent
Begging in her head.
Her heart is fragility at it's finest
Take it in your hands.
Broken
Let her fragments be repaired
Only by you.

The coldest Morning
In the coldest morning
Of a frozen day
There’s a teeny tiny kernel of heat
Deep inside your heart.

Some day
In the coldest morning
Of a dead relationship
Reach inside
For that tiny kernel of heat.
You’ll need it
For that someone else
You’ll meet.
