The town is quiet, empty
Street lights cast shadows
...
As a writer and a reader
Of a craft I claim as an art
I ask a question, the question
Many of my like have asked before
...
Perhaps you don't realise
Or I fail to make it clear
But There is one thing forever constant
And that is me wanting you
...
The miner-bird
Appears content in his little world
Watching beyond the bars and whistling
Wanting for nothing except
...
There is something far more compelling
Than those endless odes to love
Than high piled tributes to another
Claims of souls eternally bound
...
I sat upon the shore of the Danube
Watching the light of a city play out
The countless stories of countless lives
I marvelled at the buildings of old
...
Insomnia they call it
Through the late hour
Where sleep evades the mind
And in the dark thoughts gather
...
Heartbreak arrives like a wave upon rocks
In the midst of a storm
A raging slam to the heart and soul
Caught between the cold of the rock
...
Happy ever after
Is there such a thing as this
Or is it a myth of fairy tails
Does great love conquer all
...
Should I be concerned by my numbers
My friend count, the likes on my posts
How many followers do i have this week
Who if any have commented on my poems
