GCSEs are as easy as peas
Chemistry is my rock,
If I was a boat it’d be the dock.
Dance was picked by chance
Spanish was picked
When the paper was licked.
Assemblies on a Friday,
Always make me go, “Oh Yay!”
I can’t wait for prom
I just wanna know where my dress is from
The Sun is setting.
Falling out of view.
The ocean surrounded him.
All that was left was his orange and yellow hue.
My friend, my only friend
Descending into the blue.
My heart turned cold as the mist of the sea.
The night swallowed me whole.
And so my heart sang out a plea
I ask rest for my soul.
My friend is gone.
I’ve said goodbye.
I have faced my fears
and so I cry and sail away
on my sea of tears.
Every day
Yesterday
Two days
Tomorrow day
The last day…
Our first day
Was not today
But instead yesterday
Was our day out
There once was a soul with a golden heart
But it was broken and torn apart
That heart, once filled with love
Belonged to an angel, sent from above
The soul found peace in the dark
The soul so broken, lost its spark
It found love in the moonlight
As it was simply not ready
for the sun, so bright
The moon was gentle and kind
It brought peace to the soul’s mind
It loved the little soul
It made it complete and feel whole
The moon was surrounded by countless stars
They lit the soul too, and its scars
It made the soul feel bare
And the moon was aware
Yet there wasn’t much the moon could do
As it loved the stars and their light too
It tried its best to make all feel fine
But didn’t realise it had lost its shine
The soul was left in the dark
Hopelessly searching for its spark
It tried to shine like all other stars
Trying to fight lost wars
It broke more and felt hurt
The broken feeling that couldn’t be cured
But then the moon returned and shone once again
Healing the soul a little
and some of the pain
A little love was all it fed
To heal the broken heart that bled
Once again the soul found peace
Now it could deal with the pain, love would ease
The moon promised it wouldn’t leave again, never
It would love the soul always and forever
The moon and the soul now alone
And once again the soul shone.
I breathe
I see
And I seek
I spin
I twirl
And I dance
The way the breeze compliments my movements
The way I’m greeted by the setting sun
How its rays reach down to touch my face
How it overrides the colour of my hair
Chestnut brown to sun-kissed gold
How the meadow feels brimming with life
And the sunflowers turn to watch me
The cornflowers stubby and small
The tulips and alliums
The Californian poppies waving their leaves
I feel at home in this meadow
Among the wheat grass and wildflowers
The mist upon the loch awakens a feeling deep inside
And the traveller heads west, to where the eagle flies
As the golden wings of the sky bake mountain tops into crisp green horizons
His lucid oceans sing, blessed profoundly by Poseidon
The scythe of the river carves ruthlessly through the valley floor,
While waves weep into the shoreline, to paint the sand forevermore
The only land mystical enough that my thoughts can truly set sail
Where wind storms scar the bungalows, like hoof prints on its trails
Advance four seasons in all their fury but the Highlands stand unshaken.
Sew your mystery to my bones and let my soul awaken.
As I stare into the cancer of city lights I promise to return to you soon,
Where the pines whisper to each other and the mountain wind cries on, into the summer moon.
