Her

She has

the kind of face

to write poetry about.


To spill words

like ink

on page after page,

searching for a way

to describe it.


And yet,

there are never

enough words.


Their meaning,

feels meaningless.


I could travel

to the furthest reaches

of every continent.


Dive

to the deepest depths

of the seven seas,

or soar

to dizzying heights

above the tallest trees.


And yet,

the world would

feel dull,

in comparison

to her.


Even in

a thousand lifetimes,

hard as I try,

I wouldn't ever

find a single sight

more beautiful

than her face,

nor a string of words

capable of capturing

that beauty.


Because

nothing

has ever

or will ever be

more beautiful

to me,

than her.

Sinking Ships

Can somebody please tell me how to fix this sinking ship? Because I'm exhausted. I've given my all to bailing out these frigid waters, fighting against the relentless surge. I waste every breath, every thought, every effort, to confining an endless tide. I cannot stop. But I'll drown out here, cold and alone, if I don't  pause, find the source and fix this broken vessel. So teach me how to plug the gap before it kills me.

Watch this space...

 Something buried deep within me is broken. But that doesn't mean I am broken. Somewhere hidden in the labyrinth of my body is a sickness. But that doesn't mean I am sick. Sometimes I hide the fear and pain so others don't see my weakness. But that doesn't mean I am weak.  I will not be defined by the flaws under my surface. I am greater than the sum of my parts. I will mend, and heal, and grow, stronger and more powerful than ever before. Watch this space.
