(They're kind of sad poems... sorry about that! In my defence, more than one was written in reaction to various things going around me, and in the country in general, when I wrote them.)

Goodbye little bird,
I promise I loved you
I promise I cared.
Goodbye little bird -
You would've been spared

Empty shop, empty shop, empty shop.
Reduced bank hours,
Downgraded post office,
One train an hour.
Empty shop, empty shop, empty shop.

The sky is crying -
It throws down its tears,
So we can know,
That it cries too.
16th June
A bright light burned out today
As it left it lit the way -
Said love not hate is what I say,
Hatred will not win the day

You think you know me.
How I wish that were true.
You claim to know me.
But I know you.

These are all great and hit very close to home with everything going on in the country right now. You've managed to capture the despair that I'm sure all of the Remainers are feeling. My favourite was the last one, though. It's got an air of mystery and darkness that I'm always drawn to haha :)
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you XD It's strange - people tend to prefer the ones I just throw together and don't think about! :)
DeleteI loved the last one! You just have a way with words Cee!
