The Poetry Marathon

Belonging

Searching forever for a home

My soul belonging nowhere and everywhere

All at the same time

My life like a jigsaw

Made of thousands of tiny moments

Some fitting together, some twisted

beyond what the eye can see

My heart missing a beat

Scared of the unknown

Will I ever find peace

That remains to be seen

Utopia

Underrated presence in the moment

Tranquility for the soul

Overwhelming, over the top silence in your

mind

Paused – to reflect on the now

Incredibly slow pace of your heart

Amazing, peaceful time- dedicated to your

body

EVERYDAY

Falling

Fainted heart of mine

Attuned to a future without You – I

Let my soul drown in sorrow

Longing for this nightmare to end

I fall into the arms of self destruction

Not able to catch onto hope

Grieving what we had

INTO THE DEEP END

Infinity

Intertwined our souls

Nurture small glimpses of innocence

Fighting the distance between us

I try to glue our broken hearts

Never giving up on counting the stars

I need now and and forever

To get back to You

Yearning to keep you

Close for eternity

So happy to be here.

My very first poetry marathon and I went all in

24hrs – ready steady go

Nearly 2hrs to go

Good luck everyone

Love from Scotland
