Yellow

Shiny yellow ball, with your smiley face
I throw you up into the sky,
Say hello to the birds and the butterflies,
But please warn the bees to stay away.

Run away from the little doggie,
He will only bite and slobber over you.
Hide where the kitty can't find you,
She will scratch you and grin. Cheshire.

Stay away from me when I'm stressed,
Business projects, drawing creatives.
I will destroy you, pull you apart.
Please sit on my desk and smile.

Insatiable Crushes

I think of you, sometimes.
You pop in and out, unexpected.
You're here, in between Statistics and PR.
It keeps me from screaming, sane.

It is a strange thing, these thoughts.
I want to know you.
I want to make you smile.
I want to know if you're ticklish.

Meet me one day, we'll talk, not dance.
I'll see that dimple and hear you laugh.
Lets take that magical ride.
Go down the rabbit hole, take the blue pill.

Come with me for a walk.
The grass between our toes,
Stories hanging in the air
A shared ice cream, shy looks.

Let me know you.
Fill my life with colour, paint me pictures.
Write me a song, tell me everything.
We could be something, you and I. 

Fantastical

Make it drown out
The grating voice goes.
Now, it's just a buzzing noise.
I only write.

Escape into a place
You are there. Smiling.
Your smell, your taste, your touch.
All smiling memories.

I could forget you.
Sometimes, it comes close, but no.
You're always around me, a connection.
Hold me closely.

Smile for me, laugh.
Lets hold hands, skip and sing.
Lets eat, jump, dance and run away.
Take me with you.

Sail through the skies
Fly with me, meet Peter Pan.
Lets become friends with Goldilocks.
Adventurous we are.

Lets go little friend.
You are mine and I am yours.
Lets run away from this dreary place.
Leave this idiocy behind.

Lets dance slowly.
Forever is just a moment.
Help me steal time. Minutes. Seconds.
Explore this fantasy.

Pour! Wet!

Drizzle on my face,
Drops cooling, wind soothing.
Take away the heat,
Life needs some calm.

Take me to another place,
Fly me away. Vacation.
Reality isn't what I want now,
Don't let me drift away from this.

Rain on me, wash it away.
The dust. The grime. The toil.
Monsoon, you cannot come sooner.
My new love. My new discovery!

Day


Afternoon naps and a light breeze
Sunlight on my back, warm.
Painting nails by candlelight
Stormy evenings, windy nights
Hair fluttering, goosebumps.

I sunned myself, feeling the rays
Like a blanket, keeping me warm.
I closed my eyes at the brightness,
Feeling alive, energized.

Rain poured in the evening,
Thunder cracked, lightening flashed.
The wind howled and trees fell.
I was calm in the chaos.
