Mr. Write

Been gone too long.
Forgot about you.
Consumed by work.
Trapped by the ticking clock.
Tormented by my uniform.
Killing my dissimilarity.
Back on the production line of life.
Working to survive another night.
Working to save a life.
Left you behind.
Found a new love.
Never meant for this to happen.
We broke apart.
I will piece us back together.
We will be whole again.
We will dance on the vacant page.
Here I am.
Take me away to your world.
Let’s show them what we can do.
Spin their world make it unravel.
Twist their minds with my thoughts.
Trigger memories of you and me.

8) I mostly miss my Mrs Write

but I blame her, she's always taking off capriciously for parts unknown (I suspect there may be another poet) cheers, Jess

Really Like This

Mr Write comes and goes in this household - too often there are other things to do - - this is a great reminder to not let the secular world get in the way too much... Cheers - Kaz x
