Alone

Posted on 22nd Apr 2022 by ken makepeace

Feeling alone, like there is no one at home; just stillness and silence, like no one, will come near, at least no one so dear Feel like running away to somewhere unknown - somewhere untouched away from the past, leaving it all behind Do I sound unkind? I do not care, just like those who … Continue reading Alone

Middle Of The Night

Posted on 19th Apr 202219th Apr 2022 by ken makepeace

It was the middle of the night - enough to give anyone a fright Who was out there? Nobody knew. All that could be seen were footprints in the grass. Was it a burglar?

Posted on 19th Apr 2022 by ken makepeace

John's Children were their name, but it wasn't the one that led them to fame. Was it because they were The Children Of The revolution?

Promises

Posted on 18th Apr 2022 by ken makepeace

Why are promises sometimes broken - cruel words spoken People not understanding or becoming too demanding, making me feel like I want to get away, maybe only for a day - somewhere far from strain, letting the pain drift in vain, taking my cares, leading me away from all the stares. Just being by myself … Continue reading Promises

Could Liverpool Score A Goal?

Posted on 22nd Jan 2022 by ken makepeace

Could Liverpool score a goal, or would they fall into a hole? Only time would tell, but would they score before hearing the bell? At Anfield, they play. Could that be till the end of May?

Time To Disappear

Posted on 20th Jan 2022 by ken makepeace

Time to disappear - vanish without care - long into the midnight air, never to be seen again, not in this world anyway; too much dispair.
