My path
Piano beat
Breath
Alone
Running
Signs
Long words
Lost in the beat
Symbols appearing
Meaning everything
And nothing
Another breath
Where was I
It is now a memory
Running
Lines
Houses from the past
Streets make my life
Memories thread all over me
Lost
Shaking shoulders
Not forgotten
With me forever
Hatred
Distress
The beat changes
Not my fault
Left behind
Move on
Passing memories
Moving forward
Positive
Future
No changing
Fast
Time taken
Relief

What would you think
And if you were in the room
Giving birth to the world
And you could hear a piano
People demanding
But your job was to
Bear humanity
And you thoughts go
Through the earth and
Pass onto your children
What would you think
Would you think
War
Peace
Love
Anger
Positive
Major
Fine
Strong

Left to..
The beat thumps
I remember back
A tear drops
An umbrella slides
I run to the street
I see everyone
And everything
Crying and anger
The guitar strum
A generation in my net
My leg bounces
In anticipation
As I remember
What this song
Means
And there is no fright
There is just
Listening to the song
That I nearly
Left to......

There they are
Just when you are feeling down
Like nothing in this world
Will care
No one to cry to
No one to be there
And you cry to a god
That does not exist
Where just where
Send me someone
Please just someone to care
And your tears
Drop unknown
By your side
And then when you just
Need something
A change
A simple change
Knowing that nothing can
Make you feel
You walk in
And there sitting beside you
Is just a familiar face
A familar smile
Just a tad older
Someone to count on
Who you trust and understand
And you know them
Though you just met
And there is that feeling
You were just missing
Knowing that it is ok to
Care
Because they do

A friend
She screams at you every night
And cuddles you every day
And cries beneath the sheets
In some fantastic way
And she makes you go here and there
And she flits without such a care
And she runs around full steam ahead
And throws around that brown little bear
And she sits and stares at little white balloon
And cries and howls at the full moon
And loves you with all delight
And then hates you with such sudden fright
And then finally after so many years
Of being forgotten through so many tears
You get reminded every now and again
You only need to look inside to find a lovely friend

My Little Pumpkin Vine
I always wished I had a pumpkin vine
And then I grew one within my spine
Tending nicely, eating slow
Running to and running fro
And there she was, all lovely and fine
A little plant, I knew she was mine
Was there something wrong, the gardener said
I cried a bit, but everything was fed
And as I watched, that pumpkin grow
Oh how I loved this plant and so
A little bit, every day
A little sprout, a leaf I say
It sits there; turns away to the sun
A little bit each day and has some fun
I water it every now and again
And give some fertiliser and when
And I teach it to love to hear me sing
And I take it under my loving wing
And then every now and again it smiles
That little pumpkin vine; worthwhiles
And then that pumpkin vine falls asleep
I cover it at night in a sheet
That pumpkin vine, so high and low
My pumpkin vine, how I love you so
And then I grew one within my spine
Tending nicely, eating slow
Running to and running fro
And there she was, all lovely and fine
A little plant, I knew she was mine
Was there something wrong, the gardener said
I cried a bit, but everything was fed
And as I watched, that pumpkin grow
Oh how I loved this plant and so
A little bit, every day
A little sprout, a leaf I say
It sits there; turns away to the sun
A little bit each day and has some fun
I water it every now and again
And give some fertiliser and when
And I teach it to love to hear me sing
And I take it under my loving wing
And then every now and again it smiles
That little pumpkin vine; worthwhiles
And then that pumpkin vine falls asleep
I cover it at night in a sheet
That pumpkin vine, so high and low
My pumpkin vine, how I love you so

Whitedove
A bird flying,
Its wings soaring through the sky,
Love floats in the air, no; I’m not lying.
It travels over mountains, water, trees, and cities.
This white dove is as peaceful as can be,
A very pretty bird- as the little girls think,
I love this dove, my heart sinks when I see it.
This dove, is my mother.
Its wings soaring through the sky,
Love floats in the air, no; I’m not lying.

What is the bridge
Hold my hand on the island
Fill the ocean on its shores
Watch the seashells in the moonlight
See the sand as it pours
Sit by the berm in the daylight
Rest my head for a while
Not understanding what is happening
Silence is the best as we file
The bridge is a bit weary
The forest black from fires beware
Something swift hit the island softly
Turned our backs of something with care
Heaven is not always perfect
Hell can always slowly seep in
For you see you will never recognise
What has really ever happened with a sin
And have you ever wondered
Really what is that little bridge
That keeps us hanging together
Hiding there over that ridge
It keeps the ocean at bay
Sturdy however that may be
I close the door on it every now and again
And cry and cry at it every day
And I only just really recognised what it was
As I swiftly wrote out this little note
For the bridge is our love
Slowly joining us, over the moat.
And the little crystal I place in the middle
Is a reminder there to you
You are not alone on your island
Your island is now made for two
Fill the ocean on its shores
Watch the seashells in the moonlight
See the sand as it pours
Sit by the berm in the daylight
Rest my head for a while
Not understanding what is happening
Silence is the best as we file
The bridge is a bit weary
The forest black from fires beware
Something swift hit the island softly
Turned our backs of something with care
Heaven is not always perfect
Hell can always slowly seep in
For you see you will never recognise
What has really ever happened with a sin
And have you ever wondered
Really what is that little bridge
That keeps us hanging together
Hiding there over that ridge
It keeps the ocean at bay
Sturdy however that may be
I close the door on it every now and again
And cry and cry at it every day
And I only just really recognised what it was
As I swiftly wrote out this little note
For the bridge is our love
Slowly joining us, over the moat.
And the little crystal I place in the middle
Is a reminder there to you
You are not alone on your island
Your island is now made for two

Not yet.
I once knew a little girl
Who sat by the door
Writing letters
Calling, visiting
Seeing if she could find
A pure heart.
For she thought none existed
A tear drops
As she writes, day after day
Telling why
Telling how
Searching
Hearing birds and angels
Saying...
It does not exist
Silently
Praying that it does
Seeking one after the other
A slow tweet, a soul here and there
To be found.... but alas
It was not to be
A number tell her
Be careful
Her thoughts say
But...it could be
She returns to searching
Writing, wondering
Being turned away
Questioned
Being told no
Not possible
Never
Grown up with a black heart
Does it exist
She keeps seeking
That little girl
Tries again
In vain
For there must be someone out there
That will
Not do this
All over again
Who sat by the door
Writing letters
Calling, visiting
Seeing if she could find
A pure heart.
For she thought none existed
A tear drops
As she writes, day after day
Telling why
Telling how
Searching
Hearing birds and angels
Saying...
It does not exist
Silently
Praying that it does
Seeking one after the other
A slow tweet, a soul here and there
To be found.... but alas
It was not to be
A number tell her
Be careful
Her thoughts say
But...it could be
She returns to searching
Writing, wondering
Being turned away
Questioned
Being told no
Not possible
Never
Grown up with a black heart
Does it exist
She keeps seeking
That little girl
Tries again
In vain
For there must be someone out there
That will
Not do this
All over again
From the mouth of a child
A little white room
On the edge
Of a world, vast
And within the room
Stands a little girl
With pig tails, tied in blue
Dressed in a little white dress
With neat little white shoes
And she is asked
"What will you fill this room with"
And she lifts her eyelids heaven wards
A slow tear drop falls
Her gaze slips slowly to the ground
She circles her foot on the floor
Pondering
Staring out the window
Through the night
To a tree
In the distance
And then slowly she realises
It's the basic thought
That everyone wants
And as the tear slowly melts to the ground
"I fill this room with love"
On the edge
Of a world, vast
And within the room
Stands a little girl
With pig tails, tied in blue
Dressed in a little white dress
With neat little white shoes

And she lifts her eyelids heaven wards
A slow tear drop falls
Her gaze slips slowly to the ground

And then slowly she realises
It's the basic thought
That everyone wants
And as the tear slowly melts to the ground
"I fill this room with love"
