Irritating Time.

It quickens and it slows,
In opposite directions,
It teases and it taunts,
And it plays with my affections.

When I want it fastest,
It crawls so slowly by,
And when I want to savour it,
Oh, suddenly it flies!

It doesn't have a care at all,
It runs at its own speed,
Whether it is fast or slow,
Such ardour it does feed.

So what is this that teases so?
What annoys us all?
It's 'time' of course, it's only 'time',
That prolongs, delays and stalls.

Love, Lust, Desires.

Is it love that we crave. longing for the warmth depth and tenderness of it's sweet caress. Or is it lust that drives us. getting lost in the hotness of it's passion as we fall from morals grace.

Stars

There are those that do believe. That the stars represent our souls. Our lost ones looking over us. Watching how our lives unfold. But I believe the stars. Represent wishes held in our hearts.

Words

Words are my toys, that bend and do not break. Like an unbreakable sword, double edged, give or take.

Slow Burn

Slow burn. Worlds turn. And yet they stay. In their place today. Times change. And rearrange. Embrace the new. When they look for you. The old will seem. Like a fading dream. They hide, they guide.

Forgiveness

Is forgiveness given or taken. Will past hurts sleep or awaken. Can you relent, so others find solace. Can you offer it fully or an empty promise.
