Quicksand

July 16, 2019Relationships, Poetryhope, lovefound, lovelost, poem, poet, Poetry, sadDrew B

Your spade turned this soil

Muddied in lost chances

Dusty ideas floated over

Winds of change

You dug this soulless land

Only to delve further

Into my quicksand

We may meet again

As you sink

Closer and closer

To me

Sparrow

July 15, 2019Poetry, Relationshipslovefound, poem, poet, PoetryDrew B

Narrow the trail

Lost to the eye

Other widely paved

Fertile drawn nigh

Hidden secrets unknown

Naught exit bemoan

Strength not built

From the simplest of trial

This heart treads narrow

Tempestuous aisle

Wandering with purpose

Paths fraught in peril

Hope unending

in flight as the sparrow

Washed

July 13, 2019Poetry, Relationshipsdreams, lovelost, poem, poet, PoetryDrew B

Wandered about your thoughts today

Dust more feint

Dreams you continuously taint

So fearful to clean

Remove your sightly unseen

Dispel these old parts

Our remembered mis starts

And wash what was left

Eternally away

Ashes

July 6, 2019Poetry, Relationshipshope, loss, lovefound, poem, poet, PoetryDrew B

One stood

Amongst ruins

Dusts of loss

Defined once

In throws of beauty

Glory beheld

Whilst pride befell

Now only clay

To mold

By makers’ hand

Through grace

Of hope

Does truth arise

From ashes

Such as

These

Thieves

July 1, 2019Poetry, Relationshipslovefound, poem, poet, Poetry, RelationshipsDrew B

We steal the night away

No one the wiser

Thick as thieves us two

Taking kisses without asking

Grabbing hands behind tables

Sticky fingers both

Pillaging loneliness in flame

Amassing illicit fortunes

Slowly, steadily, together

Unselfish

June 30, 2019Poetrygiving, hope, lovefoundDrew B

The beginning from the end

Brought hardly a sound

No trumpets declared

Nor parades decried

Some had an inkling

Felt changes around

Mostly life seemed similar

Though everything underneath

Totally rewound

Papers spilled all’s over

Peoples worried and paled

In spite of the standard

Some gathered

Shared gracefully

Helped when needed

And Brought Life

Lighting a dark world

No Reason to Wander

June 28, 2019Poetry, Relationshipsquestion, wanderDrew B

Yearly pivots yonder thoughts

Lost to where these paths

Originally cast yearning

Following new

Things, Words, Hopes, Dreams

Forgetting simply

A home

A family

Health, all around

Provides infinitely more

Happiness

Than the better things

I forgot to remember

Again
