Own doG /God – / You don’t want to change me but you did.

I stop and listen for words without any pretence. A growing young soul, finding things that make sense. Away from any systems and moving with new rhythms, she finds herself instead. To feel whole again. Attempting to bury away any fumes and smog, only then supplies the recipe for chaos … the unwritten rules and […]

Memory

Older than I am, up in the attic, there’s a new wonderland. Complexities of the mind, those who love you, however, don’t mind. You and I, we’re okay. Soothe the worry from your eyes, and instead, invite me closer for a kiss – Home. Our hearts lie where the bottles with sunflowers tilt in the […]

Uni

Thinking uni might be easy, Fuck no! All it did was make me feel queasy. I know they go on about mental health and you feel it too.

View the face of another man, my woman holds you so close now. You become the dark and light, a shade on another corner, […]

Find me in the sea… feeling shooting stars prodding […]

Angels

We’ll all be angels one day – won’t we? Bright, courageous and unscathed after years of experience with the human emotion. A sense of being now at peace. We made it. Bright and magnificent. Stars are fleeting, so catch them whilst you can, their lives are shorter than ours sometimes. Copyright © 2022 Savannah Plain […]

One night/s

Tempers of the heart, solid rhythms beat to the feeling of closeness. A one night feeling, laced with fun, risk, and regret. I felt the coating on my heart of hope evenly break, as a glimmer of connection disguised itself as a ghostly mirage. The concrete wall surrounding my mind and soul remained strong, loyal, […]
