  • This is a poem about how someone feels when they have found a group of people they can trust. A group of people whom they can rely upon, and never let go. A group of people who will be happy for them, and make them feel safe. CAMPFIRE The fire lit up everyone’s faces as…

  • I remember you giving meA tiny shred of your lifeAnd making me promiseI would keep it safeAnd never let it get lost in the wind You packed everything you owned And set out to ‘explore’Leaving me behindWithout any hint of your intentionsExcept for the crude note you left I should have knownThat you never kept…

  • The Magician hides his secrets Refusing requestsNot heeding constant pleasTurning his back upon his audienceWho wish to know how he had warped reality The final bow on stageIs greeted by the silence of being spellboundAnd a thundering applauseBut the Magician is ushered awayAnd he disappearsBefore the crowd gets any idea of where he vanishedLest they…
