Golden Words

These words golden, I love you
heard them sang with the sound of a choir
saw them written, floating into the sky so blue
tasted them on my lips, set passions on fire

Words that shine, deserve the spotlight
let them soak in like water, wash you clean
as they burn like fire, warms you on cold nights
should be heard and seen, and felt in all the spaces between

Words that sparkle, dazzle and gleam
waves of emotion, over the sands of infatuation's shoreline
they should be with you always, even when you dream
words that dance so slow, when hearts combine

Words that colour the world, paint a future for all
a place with no hate, just love to give
somewhere dreams grow and nightmares fall
a world where we all should live

Thanks for reading,

Peace & Love.

Swipe Left

Let your finger slide

judging on just a seconds glance

how can you tell what lies inside

if you never give love a chance

This one looks good, oh no the bio says they aren't a fit for me

what happened to opposites attracting, everyone has to be the same

if we don't share the same tastes then you're a nobody

dating just turned into a mobile phone game

The picture shown, not an instant attraction

swipe left, its gone, into the pile of discarded faces

an impulse reaction, nobody fits your picture of perfection

who is going to make your heartbeat race?

Swipe right, but they don't grab with the first line

blocked, and forgotten, not the one

what happened to conversation, what caused this dating decline

when we used to speak, share ourselves, have those days gone?

Imagine if we did this in our real lives

swiping away all the people who don't fit

you would soon end up alone, just old feelings survive

just you and your reflection, finger swiping left on it

Thanks for reading,
Peace & Love.

Pained Screams

Those pained screams

like a demonic choir

they haunt my dreams

when I try to retire

Those piercing shrieks

they get under the skin

like burrowing insects

when sleep draws in

Those haunted howls

they infect the mind

villains on the prowl

is it me they hope to find?

The chilling calls

turn the blood to ice

crimson, crystal shards, pierce the heart walls

feels like your head is in a vice

The shouts erupt, when darkness falls

pleas for death to drop by

echo through the halls

in a place of healing, the hurt cry

Those broken wails blare

shouting for peace at last

voices of pain, yell for air

as sleep becomes a thing of the past

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Single star

Watch the moon, the stars in the inky sky

are you looking, through the tears that you cry

wishing upon that single star

the one we dreamt about in times before

Those distant suns, sparkling so bright

all the hopes we spoke of that night

they live on, high above

the sky heard our declaration of love

In galaxies far and vast, our words will forever last

drifting further as the universe expands so fast

not just with that single star

but the whole heart of space, so far

Through clouds of stardust, planets will sing

our words of love will ring

even when we are long gone

the universe will know our beautiful song

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Sometimes Angels Walk

Sometimes they walk with you
on quiet nights, just out of view
when you feel you have lost
you're all spent, cant afford the cost

Sometimes they enter your life
those lonely times, when bad feelings are rife
when you are at the end of the line
they are there, hand in hand saying you'll be fine

Sometimes they are right behind
following as you feel blind
from all the times you've cried
the times you fell, a helping hand they provide

Sometimes they will hold you calm
when you are all at sea in the harshest storm
they will stand tall, be your guiding light
walk you through the darkest night

Sometimes an angel will stand by your side
not a being bathed in light, a friend who will stem the tide
when you've shed too many tears, lost too many years
they will watch as the fog clears

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Cleansed

She saw through the deep set dirt
the scars from years of hurt
like water she cleansed my skin
and within, I began to feel again

Where blood had dried
from crimson tears I'd cried
She washed them down, remnants of past days
stains of memories, drained clear away

Where bruises had formed, dead flowers on skin
purple tattoos, years of torment, head spins
she kissed them with lips so tender
the colour faded forever

She saw the space where I once held my heart
since cut out, left to the one day restart
she placed it back, with a delicate hand
gave it a shock and now proudly I stand

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Blocked mind

Oh no, the word flow has stopped
I turn the tap, but it must be blocked
have I run out of things to say?
has my muse got up and run away?

Feels like my brain has blown a fuse
gone on meltdown from overuse
did I push it too hard, has something gone wrong?
maybe the last piece wasn't so strong?

Could it be I'm not a writer at all? a fraud
an impostor with a pen, whose writing is flawed
a wordsmith with no tale to tell, a poet with no rhymes
or maybe my muse is just sleeping, dreaming new story lines

The doubts creep in, tip toeing through the mind
sneakily replacing thoughts, emptiness, all you'll find
could use a lightning bolt, some inspiration from which to start
a way to fire me on, something to jolt the heart

Thanks for reading.

Peace & love.

Kyle.
