Take your time,

One step at a time,

Take your shoes off,

Let some steam off,

Where did that time go?

Looking around every corner,

Treading carefully to avoid the lines,

Never let your guard down,

Tie your hair up,

Every second counts.

Let yourself breathe,

Be free from your restraints,

Every path has been walked before,

It’s ok to be unsure,

Taking a step back,
A long breath in,
Then watching as my breath,
Moves away into a spiral of mist.

Things change quickly,
My mind left spinning,
But as my heart starts searching,
I take a step forward and breathe.

This time I can't ask you to explain.
This time I can't see you leave.
This time I can only accept your words.
But now I have to get my mind to slow.

My time with you ...

Today as the sun set beneath the clouds,
Light escaped through the gaps,
Filled the mist above the lake,
The light reflected into a darkness,
Brightened by a distant time,
As the day becomes cold,
I focus on the beauty in the fire,
The calm held by a gentle breeze.

In the gentle movements there is a fierce calm,
A purpose calling,
A life unknown but welcoming,
It's strange but warming...

Taking a step back,

It's too soon,

But only time will tell,

For now I will say I like you.

But today,

You make me smile,

You make me stronger,

You make me better.

In the mist of it all,

I need to take time,

I need to heal,

But for you I would take a risk.

I know you are my strength,

You are my weakness,

You keep me safe when I fall,

You a...

To the lady I become,

Don't forget to laugh,

Don't forget to smile,

Love yourself,

Because without this you can't grow.

To the child I love,

Be yourself,

Don't be afraid,

Take the risks,

Because that will make you smile.

To my dad,

Sorry for the mistakes,

Thank you for the love,

Can we find the Lego,

Because you know who I am.

To my broth...

Sand passes by,

Through the glass neck ,

At the top of this rocky climb,

Yet still we slip and climb.

But where does it end,

Ready to charge forward ,

As we fall to our heads,

Vows to trust,

Emotions to gather.

Challenged by the force of time, 

Where is the secret door?

I see you and I smile,
But it's not what they think,
It's not what they see, 
It's what we have made.

We can be weak,
Just hold on tight, 
This storm will pass.

We can be strong,
Just remember what we've done,
Hold it in your heart.

You surprise me,
We talk of a flat, a child and jobs,
Rather than ignoring our fears.

The clouds have lifted,
The mountains are on our horizon,
...

Today I realised I had walked away,
Today I know I still care,
But today I know I did the right thing.

Tommorow I won't forget you,
Tommorow I wouldn't shun you,
But tommorow I wouldn't call on you.

Yesterday I was angry,
Yesterday I wanted to forget,
But yesterday can't be erased.

My future wasn't meant to be with you,
My future is my motivation to move forward,
But my future won...

I can do this

Carry you with me
And tell you stories 
Nothing would get in our way
Tumble and crawl

Don't just smile
Only together can we see the light

Today is special
How could we wish it away
I love the way you smile
So don't forget today.

Tonight I was meant to work
To get ready for the week ahead
But a surprise was left hidden
Hidden in the pages of my notepad

When it was written we were friends
We still are but time has changed us
To tell me how amazing I am
To make me smile

I now sit here crying
Our friendship is a memory
We still talk
But now you tell me you were in love

It's beutiful
I miss you
We could sor...

Always central to my thoughts

While out of reach
Each day more difficult
Each problem more overwhelming
Knight in shining armour
Save my mind with your presence

Walk with me by the river
And share your stories of bravery 
Learn my troubles
Know I can carry yours 

Another day will pass
Water will still flow
As plants still breathe
Yet let's hold each other tall

I don't just sit on a shelf

Waiting for you to pick me up

To think I am pretty

Despite the dust

So don't just think of me

Talk to me

Message me

Learn who I am

If I am there

Talk to me

Listen to me

Learn who I am

I will take myself of this shelf

Because I don't want to be 

Be that unwanted toy 

I have value and not just in memories

So l...

I know he is your child

I know he just wants to grow up

But you are his grounding

He has helped me find mine

Its a while since I could run to mine

But she still cries

Still spits feathers

And wants to see me smile and grow

I might not be what you expected, wanted even

But he has held my hand

At a funeral, on our first date and in a nightmare.

I am st...
