in dreams

Dreams, in sleep, new worlds to explore to leap, into unknown, new tales,

old places to visit, with new beginings and all it entails,

to delve deep into new retreats, sample new treats, enjoy unique feats.

A place you can fly, or swim without air, the options are endless, open ended.

An adventure to have, everytime you are there, the options are splendid.

like interactive movies, they move me, allow to live free,

Could be horror, fantasy or romance, each a unique dance, a chance to enjoy a new stance.

So dont put off sleep embrace it, let it take you away, feelings anew, a whole new world to break to.

writers doubt

I cant find the words, wrote ten pages, tore them all up, twisted verbs to set a new tone,

trying to hone a different meaning, delivering feelings, this never helped, the words have run dry.

I have nothing to say, did i ever, did any of this deliver, did it hit the brief, could it be released?

cant find a way to begin, is it even within?

 

do i have this right, can i even write?

ripped paper surrounds, cant find the sounds, the flow is all wrong, its too short, too long.

delivery is off, the beat doesnt work, its a waste of time, a waste of mind,

so i start again, i cant find the words....

thanks for reading.

one step at a time

Ripped out pages, torn up memories, old photos remind of distant times, 

where things were so different.

Self imprisioned by my own walls, put up to stop others getting in,

stop them from breaking down my defenses, breaking the shell, looking within,

 finding me empty aswell.

nothing to give, im nothing, i fear, this is what kept me locked up in here,

 this empty cell, with an unlocked door, my fears were the key,

 they made me feel weak,

not worthy of love, i could never trust, or let someone in to get under my skin,

These were my fears or some at least, are they banished for good?

 thats for us to see,

Time will tell if ive broken the spell, but the feeling is good and lifting aswell.

A step at a time, each day a new test

, but face it head on and come out the best.

Thanks for reading.

New year

A page ends, the new diary begins, fresh, clean, 

no marks no words, just endless possibilities,

A year passed, say farewell to the ghosts,

its pains its heartaches, and lets share a toast,
To all the good that happened before,
And whats more, the future so clean, free, new to see, 

like fresh snow, untouched, a new show.
Hopes and dreams may come to pass, or may fade into dreams of the past, 

replaced with new hope, new potential scope,
so goodbye old ghosts, old miseries past,

 the future is new, the future is vast.

hope you all have a fantastic new year
thanks for being here
Kyle.

the voice

The veil lifted, darkness parted, fog dispersed as i heard the verse,

The song was sung, with a heart so strong,

So pure and unique, the singer never skipped a beat.

The voice of an angel, a lifting, lilting melody,

entrapped me, entrancing, took me away,

Away from the room, was just me and you,

A moment of time, so calm, clear almost divine,

just an interlude, a break in the play, a brief moment in a wonderful day.

Thanks for reading

moonlit Dancefloor

The night holds us, grips us, the darkness takes us, sets us free,

It is our dance floor, the moonlight illuminating the streets, like a disco light,

A place to let our rhythms out, to dance away, not a care in sight,

no fear, no fright just us under the moonlight.

The cool wind chills, invigorates us still,

to keep up the beat, as we let out our dancing feet,

The sounds of the city are our music, its melody is engaging, it twists and it takes shape,

giving us a bass line to let our hips sway, as we dance the night away, under the moonlight.

So i was never really happy with this, so here is revision 2....

The night holds us, grips us tight, the darkness envelops us, sets us free,

our dance floor, the moonlight illuminating the streets, like a disco light,

A place to let our rhythms out, to dance away, not a care in sight,

no fear or fright just us under the moonlight.

The cool wind chills, invigorates us still,

to keep up the beat, as we let out our dancing feet,

The sounds of the city our music, its melody engaging, it twists, takes shape,

giving us a bass line, lets our hips sway, we dance the night away, under the moonlight.

That stars above, twinkle in time, to the rhythm below,

give us a nice view, to share, just me and you,

as we move closer in tune, in time, we flow with the night,

as we hold each other and sway, under the moonlight.

we can not stop, the stars aligned, the planets chime with mystic sounds,

the universe alive, tempts us out, to feel our heats, and feel our grounds,

to share in our hearts that mysterious night, a love set alight,

as we kiss under the moonlight, a wonder, a delight.

thanks for reading,

Stutter

Stutter, my voice cracks, heart a flutter,

cant find the words, mind closed, like a shutter,

blinded, thoughts binded, stuck in the gutter.

Sorrow, tears well, as i wallow,

Sick pain, nothing tastes the same,

i cant swallow,

cant escape though the river is shallow.

Lifting, A smile, some kind words, a gift then,

A ray of hope, through the clouds,

a glimpse of home, feeling warm, comforted, less forlorn.

A chance at last to escape the past.

Thanks for reading.
