2021, ants and ankles and mimes, creative writing, disappointment, emotions, justice, karma, poem, poetic justice, poetry, wine

How easy would it be
To drown the feelings in red wine?
How many glasses would it take
To leave it all behind?
I don't agree with slanted limits
They set for us, those snakes,
Those fools,
What would it take
To break their spirits,
Destroy their grip,
Rewrite the rules?
Laugh all you want,
Your days are numbered,
There is a chart that karma keeps,
It's been two decades
I've grown stronger,
But you will wither in your sleep.
Ant has been biting,
Ankles cracking,
Mimes playing roles they can't sustain,
I've always thought
You were the good ones -
All you can do is hiss and feign.

Tired of waiting games:

I choose me.

Whatever the weather,
I am the one by my side.

I choose me.

Every journey ahead,
I am my own faithful guide.

I choose love.

For myself,
For everytime I fell down.

I choose me.

I am strong,
And I'm proud to be wearing my crown.

Lack of sleep for days

Losing faith, does it exist –

I have found something to be true

Something I have been suspecting,

However I try, it is hard to construe –

My fears no longer affect me.

***

It’s funny, because I cannot reach out

Time is beyond us

We’ve met only once;

Fleeting instances, barely a glance,

Find me, my lover, and let’s take a chance.

My second half – and I am yours

Wherever you are, I am mostly indoors

If you can feel me, give me a sign

A tug on my heart, two hearts will entwine.

I’ve known you before,

We’ve made a pact

To meet in this life and never look back.

Find me, my lover,

I am here by the sea,

Waiting for you

Under the old white oak tree.
