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.

Take a Toll

Dready days that take a toll,

A reminder that to live is to fail,

Milly O 19/05/2023 Milly O 19/05/2023

It is clear that wanting is good,

But desire can easily turn to lust,

Milly O 17/05/2023 Milly O 17/05/2023

Love denied feels like a stab in the heart,

An open wound that refuses to heal,

Milly O 15/05/2023 Milly O 15/05/2023

Aching through my bones,

The fatigue that never ends,

Milly O 14/05/2023 Milly O 14/05/2023

As the cool day starts up,

As I ponder and wonder why it is done,

Milly O 12/05/2023 Milly O 12/05/2023

Solitary monoliths of uneven edges,

Coupled with corals and oysters to boot,

Milly O 10/05/2023 Milly O 10/05/2023

Light showers of rain,

That cleanse the earth,

Milly O 08/05/2023 Milly O 08/05/2023

Clearly luck was on his side,

To find a gem of a place,

Milly O 07/05/2023 Milly O 07/05/2023

To see what's to come,

Isn't that a delight?
