Indomitable spirit
Strong of heart,
Pure in soul
Part by part,
We will grow
When we build
Ourselves this way.
A tale of a winter’s morn
Leaves settle on the frosty ground
You can barely hear any sounds,
Except for the scurry of insects
And small animals as the go to ground.
It’s a cold sharp morning today
And all the landscape is white,
And the sky a shade of chiaroscuro grey
It’s a typical cold frosty winter’s day,
And I see in the distance the hunters seeking their prey
And I hide among the trees waiting to join the fray,
As a hunt saboteur I aim to avoid any bloodshed this day
And the prey will survive once again,
And the hunters will get angry I am afraid
But I really do not care because I am proud to say,
I am a protector of life and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Drug dealer
He thinks that he’s a wheeler dealer
But he’s known as a drug dealer,
Deals to kids and is a life stealer
Selling bad batches as kids overdose,
But he doesn’t care he even boasts
About turning people into ghosts,
He moves between low levels of society
Doesn’t show remorse or decency,
I heard they found his body recently
But that’s the nature of the buisness you see,
In a dog eat dog world that is so filthy
Drugs are the worse parasitic disease,
And it seeks to infect the whole of humanity
And it consumers on the addicts that it feeds.

Hard to understand
I offered you my hand
Why don’t you understand,
I wanted you so bad
And now that seems so sad,
I was willing to give you all I had
But you chose to let me down,
And now it’s all over
And I am only left with the wreckage,
Of the destruction you caused
And you put my life on pause,
I am not sure how long for
But I am struggling with this now
But I have to deal with this now,
If I am ever going to move on
And rebuild my life and love,
It’s hard though I have to say
When the pain won’t go away.
Hardest times
Each day becomes the hardest,
When we our stress levels become the largest
Part of our lives and existence,
And it surpasses all of our resistance
Each day we worry and fear,
When the answers to our problems aren’t clear
This puts us under so much pressure,
When we struggle through both work and leisure
It could feel like it will go on forever now.
Fulfilling our dreams
You can be what you want
When you have strength
And the inner self belief,
You can do anything
That you want to achieve
It’s all up to you and me,
And the fulfilling of our dreams
So be inspired then, too succed.
Abduction?
Held in captivity
By some other race,
One minute in my bed
But now in space,
Held by aliens
Not sure what they are going to do,
This is a message I send to you.
She sat in this room
After sending this text,
A figure came in
And said it’s maybe best,
You don’t try to send
Anymore messages to your friends,
Then he led her outside
And through the window
She saw the earth end,
She broke down in tears
And screamed how could you do it,
He looked quizzically
And said it was humans that blew it,
He opened other windows
And she saw many other crafts outside,
The alien said we saved those
Who had respect for all life,
But as humans you destroyed
The planet that you had,
You took it for granted
And transformed good into bad,
So you see your not a captive
But in fact you’re a survivor,
We saved you all from this funeral pyre
And now you’re a part of the cosmic choir,
Of lost souls uniting elsewhere in the universe
Where you’ll be able we hope to recover from your hurt.
My own biggest critic
I try not to judge people
But when I do I judge myself more harshly,
When I wrote I am my biggest critic
When I exercise I push myself so hard,
When I think and speak I doubt myself more
You see I understand that to my core,
I expect so much more from me
Than anybody else I ever know or meet,
And I am kinder to others than I am to me.
Keeping active and balanced
I have to say I feel breathless
Is it weather or is it down to age,
I think it’s time to get fit
Time to eat more healthy day to day,
I think my body requires a reboot
And as I do it I will sharpen my mind,
Because we need to maintain balance
It’s a delicate but worthwhile line,
To walk down when we get complacent
And allow sedentary ways set in,
We must try and remain active
As older age and the sofa life begins,
To take or lives over.
Open minded thinking
We dream without expectations
We hope without taking things for granted,
We are the critical thinkers
Who see the whole of life without blinkers,
Yet we struggle in a materialistic greedy world
Because we know there’s more beyond this with our thoughts unfurled,
Not limited by dogmatic political, social and religious beliefs
Our open mindedness gives us relief,
And answers to the burning questions
That as human beings we constantly seek.
