A collection of poetry that revolves around my surroundings, perspective, and feelings. Some of them rhyme and others don’t.

"It is almost impossible to watch a sunset and not dream." – Bern Williams.

Wake Up

In the advent of trying to make things work,

It becomes worse,

Milly O 27/10/2022 Milly O 27/10/2022

Early and late as the hustle reduces and clarity ensues,

A sense that all is not well settles in,

Milly O 20/09/2022 Milly O 20/09/2022

In the dark dregs of the soul,

As putrid and murky the miasmic depth is,

Milly O 03/09/2022 Milly O 03/09/2022

Picking up where I left off,

Dancing and singing is still not possible,

Milly O 23/08/2022 Milly O 23/08/2022

The cold turned to extreme warmth,

A certain weakness engulfed my space,

Milly O 19/08/2022 Milly O 19/08/2022

Staring at the new day with grim,

Thinking of why this ain't that drip,

Milly O 09/08/2022 Milly O 09/08/2022

To awake to the blistering cold,

A yawn that threatens to take one under,

Milly O 06/08/2022 Milly O 06/08/2022

It's easier to keep quiet,

To stagger in the dark and hold the peace,
