ebbed and flowed,
assisted by the steady gravitational pull of the moon,
has gone out
and stayed out.

I’m knotted up inside
Knit one purl one
As panic starts to rise
Slip one drop one
Tears betray my eyes

I threw the dice today,
But the numbers didn’t stack up.
I forced you to be honest,
And now my heart is broken.

What did I see, Mummy?
What did I hear?
I’ve lost my voice, Mummy,
I’m frozen by fear.
Seat of Trust

I’m driving on the motorway,
When tension starts to rise,
My eyes are focused outwards,
While my inner child cries.
Damn you!

Damn you!
Damn you for making me believe in you.
Damn you for making me believe in you then leaving me

One day I awoke
And said, “Enough!
Time to be me.”

“If you and I just went away?”
Just Allow

The sea roars majestically
Wave after wave, a foam of salt water
Like my tears, a reminder we are part of the earth, of the sea
Our time here is so short
Like each wave that hits the shore
