Nik Houghton Poems

The ocean's breeze
Dried the painful tears away
Without a word of ache,
I dreamed of us dear
...

You gave me security
You gave me strength
You gave me hope and the will to live
You are Supermom
...

Every cut out image or my life,
A new picture is born
Every paralytic moment
One disaster reaps after another
...

Awaken in the dark
Morose and impetuous
A weakling crawling
As peculiar as it seems
...

Unprepared, unaware and imprudent
She faces her fast coming future
The sweet scent of success
Not knowing of its consequences
...

Acceptance of faith i anticipated
Perpetual scarring of faith I pondered
Eternal hope for truth I patronized
As I fade away you would recognize
...

Disrupted youth you must see
Distorted ignorance I can't be
A fragrance of lucid tomorrow
No tears, no sorrows not even screams
...

I'm a simple yet complex person
Merely a prisoner of my own passion
Magical and exemplary
For your eyes only
...

I thought liking you would come between us
Our meaningful friendship mattered to both of us
You've captured my weakness entirely
Yet you remained modest and subtle
...

He made me smile in an instant
He made me laugh by a minute
But he made me fall in love
In a heartbeat
...
