Its been a while that I had come to the blog. My computer getting damaged and ill health didn't help but I'm grateful to God that I've got progress now. I have been writing , stories mainly, ramblings from a fevered brain addled with opiate based medication, so many exciting things there.
This is an old poem but one of my favourites, so I want to share it as I slowly return to the land from which I grew fat. I have found one certain truth in these past months. I write because I must; its life, air and living to me. Even when I laid down with painful bones, gnarled fingers and fevered breath. I still picked up my phone and recorded thoughts and stories and songs. It would not leave me, not give me a moment's rest until every last word had been stored for transcribing.
So as I start anew, enjoy the strains of my longing heart years ago and maybe your heart is in this place, don't despair, believe it or not, this too shall pass. You will live.
God bless x
FOOLISH THINGS
You came and conquered me
You conquered me
A strand of hair on my pillow
A note paper with scribbles
A fading picture of a romantic place
These foolish things
A half-empty cologne bottle
A broken pencil
A worn out T-shirt
A chipped glass
These foolish things
A memory, a smile
A song, a laugh
You do these things to me
These foolish things
So foolish things
Remind me of you
And conquer me
