So I'm Told

So I'm Told

I'm told things will get better,
By those that can not relate.
Say it's time that I move on,
Now that one I really hate.

Tell me that time's a healer,
Soon I'll be rid of this pain.
To put this all behind me,
And should look to live again.

It all seems kind of silly,
The notion just makes me mad.
Why find it so hard to see,
That  it's normal to be sad.

My grief is real and valid,
They just don't know what to say.
Realizing that I'm alone,
It's my hurt, my loss, my way!

So Angry

So Angry

Cross that the sun's still shining,
Vexed that the worlds done me wrong,
All day ranting and raving,
Angry that I must stay strong.

Fury an understatement,
Rage that the world is not fair,
All attempts to console me,
Met with a furious glare.

Hostile to all around me,
My temper soon to be lost,
Life now is too hard to bare,
My heart now covered in frost.

Enraged at the injustice,
Judgement passed, with no appeal,
So hot under the collar,
Fate, by the spin of a wheel.

How Dare You

How Dare You

How dare you leave me me alone,
To face each and every day.
This is not what we had planned,
Things should not have gone this way.

How dare you treat us this way,
Break our plans for tomorrow.
Smothered all our hopes and dreams,
Replaced with tears and sorrow.

How dare you leave us to cope,
No mother to make it right.
A little girl needs her mum,
Instead you gave up the fight.

How dare you leave such a mess,
Up and leave without a trace.
Your departure premature,
Into Heaven's sweet embrace.

No Justice

No Justice

Where is my justice?
No sign of balancing scales.
Expect your life to be fair,
This system of law just fails.

So what did I do,
To deserve a fate so cruel?
Bad in a previous life?
Broke a universal rule?

No jury of peers,
To help keep things by the book.
They would see mitigation,
And then let me off the hook.

This grand court of life,
There is no justice there.
Guilty of a trumped up charge,
The sentence is my despair.

Crying Without Tears

Crying Without Tears

No more tears my love,
Doors are closed at the flood gate.
The river may have run dry,
But my cries still resonate.

Crying without tears,
Is like lightning void the bang,
Empty box, on a shop shelf,
A guitar without the twang.

Could I be broken?
Does my plumbing need some care?
Will i ever cry again?
Shed a tear for my sweet Claire?

Fury and Outrage

Fury and Outrage

Myopic with rage,
Fury locks me in a cage,
Justice is not mine,
Full of outrage as I rhyme,
We were robbed of all our time.

Now I start to smash,
Feel relief with every crash,
Standing at the door,
Broken glass adorns the floor,
Still frustrated, I break more.

Feeling better now,
I begin to ponder how,
Anger comes and goes?
Why this is, nobody knows,
Changing tide, one can suppose.

Maddened once again,
This time I reach for my pen,
Let my feelings flow,
The scene, darker than 'The Crow',
Indignation full on show.

Senseless

Senseless

There is just a void,
Where your presence were once there,
Empty without you,
And nobody seems to care.

Silent as the lamb,
It has all gone quiet here,
No sound worthy now,
In the absence of your cheer.

Darkness all around,
Nothing worthy of the light,
Everything pales to your glow,
After losing your good fight.

Nothing smells the same,
With your fragrance not around,
Another sense disabled,
Now useless along with sound.

And now let's talk touch,
Now nothing quite feels the same,
Missing you in all these ways,
But that's just the grieving game.

A Broken Promise of Love

A Poem Titled 'A Broken Promise of Love'

I thought we had an understanding,
I thought we had a deal,
I thought we had a pinkie promise,
But that was not for real.

I thought we had an arrangement,
I thought our contract was sound,
I thought we had an unbeatable team,
No half measures were allowed.

I thought our pact was solid,
I thought our handshake would do just fine,
I thought our commitment would last forever,
Survive all obstacles, including time. 

If a lawyer for the heart exists,
I should should get them on the phone,
Treaty signed and covenants pledged,
A promise broken. you left me alone.
