Bernard Thorpe Poems

The hardest choice I've ever had to make, was facing my own reality
The biggest mistake was hiding from it for so long
I'm sorry that I used you to escape, I just wanted to belong
Just know this...I've loved you all along
...

the cancer in paradise (Ambiguous Africa)

Africa you have given me my childhood years,
in you i know my friendships and my fears,
...

i am a heart

i am a heart
i am a heart that beats,
...

monstrosity of min(d) (e) by BF Thorpe


the simplest thing,
...

The Powers of a little one


she sits on her steps like the world will never let her down,
...

you intrigue me,
the way your thoughts gather in an infinite abyss,
little spakles of ideas scattered like morning mist,
the freedom from constraints, your ability to believe,
...

when i close my eyes & the images of you dissapear,
what do i do?
ive tried so hard and i've given my utmost best,
what is left for you?
...

I've noticed the way you look at me tonight,
I must say I like it
I'll say I've noticed the way you smile at me
I must say I like it
...

delving deeper, ever revolving further,
never resolving questions,
strange obsesions, fluctuating desires,
and it is posed again,
...

behind this feeling
to the side of my minefield heart,
I can't remember where this ends and starts,
it happened so long ago still castrating my mind,
...
