Her black looks
his dark thoughts
ill advised
hand drying knives
dishwasher safe
that’s a maybe
who’d take the risk
both did crazy
…..
Too tight… two egos, one room
Chance – poem and a line
With her
he had a chance
of something more
than yesterday
On the day
he let past dictate
too unsure
he played too safe
Tomorrow came
his moment gone
he’ll try again
too late she’s gone
…..
She would, he couldn’t… end of

She knew the drill, keep him hanging on, playing with his heart, promising they’ll meet up soon, keep on saying ‘I’m nervous, I’m not ready’ when he keeps asking ‘why not yet?’ – damn him, she’s confused, the things he does to her with words… #vss365 – prompt ‘Drill’

Little spent as you and me, rail tickets cheap day returns, London pubs, chain restaurants, daylight hours no overnights, walking yet seen no sights, bank accounts our #pounds not stretched, time, as us, overdrawn unchecked. #vss365 – prompt ‘Pound’ (see ‘unstretched‘)
Unstretched – poem and a line
Poem:
Little spent as you and me
rail tickets cheap, travel off peak
London pubs, chain restaurants
daylight hours no overnights
walking, yet seen no sights
bank accounts, both unstretched
time, as us, overdrawn, unchecked
Six Words:
Shared his days… declined his years.
Not a Day – poem and a line
Poem:
You may not want to read this
you may feel I don’t deserve you
you may wish I hadn’t written
maybe you’ve given up on me
I may have got it wrong
in so many ways that’s me
I may have got you wrong
in what I need to be
There’s not a day you’re not with me
there’s not a day I’ll not smile
there will never be a day
I’ll not wonder how you are
Six Words:
Miss being… as one us two
Remembrance – poem and a line
Poem:
Buttons and epaulettes
march for all who fall
conflicts toll stand silent
lost, to be lost, not yet born
Six Word:
No, no last words… she cried.

‘For so long now, for whatever reason, you’ve held back, see something that makes you nervous, too unsure, to take a chance with me. It cuts me deep, it crushes me, your every message, that never names a day for us, to at last see what we could be.’
#vss365 – prompt ‘crush’
Easy Said – poem and a line
Poem:
Easing back now had his day
easy said just not his way
decades spent in hope not hate
emotions ignored no love relates
He falls every now and then
a like mind curved with legs
goes well a while until she feels
too real too deep so very still

Where they’ve been not quite… nearly
