Book preview

Distressed waves

anxious feeling-

its grasp not willing

to let go,

thoughts in my head row,

not making sense,

desperate to find a defence

in a sea of distressed waves

Art

sadness turned into art,

tears painted as you fell apart,

empty spaces

filled, with your brush's traces,

pain on a canvas,

and a half-empty glass,

a broken heart,

turned into art

Mind

mind like an ocean,

thoughts sailing,

storms of emotion,

heart racing,

some thoughts going ashore,

forming into what’s spoken,

some still unsure,

sitting silently, never to be awoken

Paper Plane

like a paper plane

that doesn't fly in the rain like the metal machines,

gets soaked and eventually goes down the drain-

a simple idea-

easy to tear,

easy to forget

Doubt

a dream in pieces,

waiting to be built, or lost-

if hope decreases,

but what is the cost

of never finding out

what could have been,

because of doubt?

Troubled mind

thoughts a swirling storm,

words leaving marks like spilt ink on paper,

a hurting heart,

old ideas like shattered glass,

a troubled mind,

dreams like torn-out pages of a novel

Change

maybe like the seasons,

things change and you find

some things you loved, for many reasons,

you’ve left behind

the place where you used to live, to you

is now merely a memory in your heart

and from those you used to be close to-
