What can I say? I want to be loved yes its true

To be denied love for so long can I still love too?

If I reach for the stars Would I grasp only air?

Where are you my friend? It’s your love that I miss

I ramble away in the night,

If you saw me now you would have a fright

Don’t listen to me when I say it’s all good

But deep down inside I scream”tell her how you feel you fool”

Abandonment  is all I’ve had

No loving arm to save me,

I dared to dream again

Silly me to expect love and hold onto a love so true,

Maybe it’s up to the saints to decide my fate

Will they do the right thing or will they listen to yoou?

But I say”come and judge  your forsaken son and take me away,

But know this I am tired and want to sleep

The chemicals that share my mind,

The pride I once had,

All gone I fear, but all I want is you

Why did I think it would be different?

I am here and yoou are not,

Alone again in self belief

That one day I will catch your eye,

To lye next to you would be my greatest prize

Can I not stray from this life so confined?

The feeling of self worth seeping out of my darkened eyes,

Was I really that bad to be left alone?

When I open  my door, not a sound I hear,

And you don’t call out my name anymore

But wherever you are, and whoever you are with

I hope they take care of you, like I always did

A poem by David Williams

THAT HELPS YOU GET OVER THE PROBLEMS YOU FACE

IT’S ALWAYS BEEN THERE JUST WAITING FOR YOU

JUST WALK AROUND IT THATS ALL YOU DO

ON TURNING THE CORNER YOU’LL PROBABLY FIND

ALL OF YOUR TROUBLES ARE NOW LEFT BEHIND

THEY DON’T SEEM TO BOTHER NOT ANY LONGER

IN FACT YOUR RESOLVE GROWS STRONGER AND STRONGER

BUT WHERE IS THAT CORNER I’D LIKE TO KNOW

THOSE THAT HAVE TURNED IT DON’T WANT TO SHOW

IT’S LIKE A DARK SECRET KEPT WELL AWAY

FROM ALL THOSE WHO NEED IT,EACH MINUTE,EACH DAY

FOR THOUSANDS ARE SEARCHING IN ANGUISHED BELIEF

THAT ONCE THEY HAVE TURNED IT THEY SUFFER RELIEF

BUT THE CORNER STAYS HIDDEN AWAY FROM THEIR SIGHT

AS IF IT’S NOCTURNAL AND DOESN’T LIKE LIGHT

Love is like fairies

It is magical

Soft and angelic

Like sweeping snow,

I questioned once how do I know

Then one day I discovered

True love it was like no other

Feeling ever,truly magical

Like a fairy waving a wand

Amongst the snowdrops,

Birds singing a song

Through the woods

I followed them,

This was where I belong

With my heart full of love

Singing in the soft breeze,

Watching the fairies dance between the trees

They would put a spell on me,

If true love feels like this

Then this is where I want to be

In a land that is magical to me

By Gillian Sims

 How do you know how it feels to be

There’s a lot more to me than what you see.

Have you felt the same hurts and pain?

We’ve lived different lives; we are not the same.

I’m simply trying to rebuild -

a life worth having, in this hard world.

I’m surviving the trials of everyday living.

Oh why can you not be more forgiving?

Your careless hard words, if only you knew,

how they cut me through and through;

even though I make no judgement on you.

I wonder if you realise,

just how much you offend,

with your cruel words; that you sometimes send.

I would just love to be well, like you my friend.

I really hope that I’m on the mend,

and that my painful journey is near its end.

 Look at the rainbow searching

For its pot of gold after the rain

A beacon in the sky to brighter times,

Colours seen and not shine

After the tears of the heavens  fall

Forgiveness for the sins of the children

A time of peace,a sign of hope

For the future,

Or just a quirk of nature
