Aoife Semple Poems

Grandparents are special
in so many different ways,
Their hearts are filled with love
...

I used to sit on that side
With people I could trust
I was pretty much contented
But things were to readjust
...

I walk down the old familiar road
The road I walked down as a child
It seemed bigger than before
But it’s definitely as mild
...

Stalkers,
Talkers
Screamers,
Dreamers,
...

I don’t know why
But you feel more real
Than the one who was supposed to
...

The one I hate comes in a form so likeable,
You'd never expect it to be him,

That would touch you, in ways so indecent,
...

Projected to the world,
A miracle to behold.
A child to hold so dear,
That now you treat so queer.
...

I don't like the slice
It makes me feel weak
I prefer the sizzle
So euphorius I can't speak
...

When I was hated
That was fine
At least I knew
And it was mine
...

Forgive me father,
I have forsaken you
Done some things
I wasn’t meant to do
...
