Secret Poet

One Hundred and Forty Seven

2012-01-05T10:55:00.000-08:00

The world, it blurs before my eyes,
This should come as no surprise.
Is this the reason that I drink?
Remove ability to think?

I don't know why I run away,
Why I can't face the day,
I think I am a clever man,
But my drinking has a different plan.

One Hundred and Forty Six

2012-01-03T12:01:00.000-08:00

I try to be the best I can,
I try to be a better man,
I try to be a helpful friend,
I try to be there to attend.

But try is never good enough,
Decisions made, however tough,
Seem to be the wrong way round,
Can the way really be found?

One Hundred and Forty Five

2011-02-08T14:41:00.000-08:00

Mirror moon reflects,
Next days sun not yet dawned,
Tomorrow here now.

One Hundred and Forty Four

2011-01-17T15:37:00.000-08:00

Do you have feelings, ones of of regret?
Things that you've Done or "Have Not Done Yet"?
Wishes wholehearted, trying to Do!
You want to release the heart of you.

One Hundred and Forty Three

2010-11-27T15:41:00.000-08:00

There are times I just feel down,
My expression is a frown.
All I wish for is a lift,
being happy is a gift!

One Hundred and Forty Two

2010-11-27T15:35:00.000-08:00

A life to live,
A soul to give,
a way to think,
Destroyed by drink!

One Hundred and Forty One

2010-11-27T15:28:00.000-08:00

The darkness around me fills my soul,
I spiral down, in to the hole,
Do I really have to fight,
as I search for some light?

One Hundred and Forty

2010-10-15T16:00:00.000-07:00

Yes, it's me. I'm back again.
I've felt some joy and had some pain.
I've lived my life in many ways,
and have survived all the days.

Now I look toward the heart,
that is where we all must start.
Without that feel I couldn't live,
I simply have some love to give!

One Hundred and Thirty Nine.

2010-09-04T09:33:00.000-07:00

The world, they say, it still revolves,
but ,from here, it just dissolves.
A party night and family,
is pretty much the best for me.

I forget the joy, friends unknown.
I arrive. The quiet. Home alone.
Watching the fish,I feel so calm,
At least I do them no harm.

And then the cats decide to visit,
If there's better, tell me, what is it?
So as they lay and simply be,
My tension, stress, is set free.

One Hundred and Thirty Eight.

2010-08-18T12:48:00.000-07:00

There's something special about sharing a bed,
Choosing to share contents of head,
Talking about feel and poise,
to a background of white noise!

One Hundred and Thirty Seven.

2010-07-29T12:52:00.000-07:00

Like an echo, I hear your voice.
It's in my head, I have no choice.
You told me the right thing to do,
Maybe once I will listen to you?

One Hundred and Thirty Six..

2010-07-12T10:14:00.000-07:00

Time ticks off its eternal beat,
But time is tricky, all deceit.
An hour that's full of pain and fear,
Seems to last more than a year.

An hour that's full of joy and fun,
Is over before it has begun.
The faster time you must devour,
Memorise for the darker hour!

One Hundred and Thirty Five.

2010-07-08T10:44:00.000-07:00

I refuse to give in to the fear,
I will greet each day with chosen cheer!
Negative thinking is out the door,
I decide to be afraid No More.

One hundred and Thirty Four

2010-07-08T10:16:00.000-07:00

My morbid mind it thinks of Death.
My neck it feels the foetid breath.
I wish I knew how to be sure,
To keep his bad news from my door.

One Hundred and Thirty Three.

2010-07-01T13:45:00.000-07:00

I wish I had a girl to touch,
It's something that I crave so much.
Someone who understands me,
to make me actually BE!

One Hundred and Thirty Two.

2010-07-01T11:00:00.000-07:00

Anipal Awards are nearly here!
Please be ready to raise a cheer.
I hope you all chose to vote,
for the Anipal on whom you dote.

We really don't have long to wait,
Sixteenth of July is the starting date.
Maybe I'm not supposed to tell,
It's on the Seventeenth as well!

You really know, once it's begun,
It will be nothing but fun!
Being held in the #NipClub,
It's better than your local pub!

One Hundred and Thirty One.

2010-07-01T09:21:00.000-07:00

Every day I try to see,
What the hell is wrong with me?
I start the day with a sense of fun.
Looking toward the midday sun.

But somewhere along the way,
Everything just goes astray.
My spirits simply seem to drop,
My happy day becomes a flop.

Whenever I get this annoyed,
My hopes and dreams are destroyed.
Is there something I can do,
To let me live more like you?

One Hundred and Thirty.

2010-06-24T13:18:00.000-07:00

The bird flies free across the sky,
I see it and I wonder why?
Why can I not be so free,
I wish you could just see the ME!

One Hundred and Twenty Nine

2010-06-15T10:29:00.000-07:00

As I grow older my body fails,
My skin it wrinkles and it pales.
My joints stiffen, my eyes go dim,
I find it harder to stay slim.

Yet through it all my mind survives,
Thoughts buzzing like bees in hives,
Ideas pop up, I think I'm clever.
I hope it stays this way forever!

One Hundred and Twenty Eight.

2010-06-08T12:06:00.000-07:00

The dark of space holds stars of light,
Like animal eyes bright with fright.
When I look in to the black,
I want to take the bad things back!

One Hundred and Twenty Seven

2010-05-20T10:01:00.000-07:00

Upon my pillow I turn my head,
On to which my tears are shed.
Lovingly, to my surprise,
You are there to kiss my eyes.

Seeing you are really there,
lets me know how much you care.
You must have been there all the night,
Wondering about my plight.

If every night were the same,
I could live without my shame.
You could tell me all 'bout that,
If only you weren't my pet cat!

One Hundred and Twenty Six

2010-05-18T14:41:00.000-07:00

I try to be the best I can,
I think of where, I began,
Am I really getting worse?
or do you still read my verse?

One Hundred and Twenty Five

2010-05-16T11:28:00.000-07:00

Blue and grey, the sky is filled.
Pendulous clouds, rain distilled.
Every cloud has a silver lining?
For sunny weather , I am pining!

One Hundred and Twenty Four

2010-05-16T11:16:00.000-07:00

My world collapses in to me,
why do I ask others to see?
The way I fail, the degradation,
Should I expose it to the nation?

One Hundred and Twenty Three.

2010-05-16T11:06:00.000-07:00

I really love my family,
They are so important to me.
But a stranger could be a friend,
Who can tell how the stories end?

One Hundred and Twenty Two

2010-05-11T12:46:00.000-07:00

There are some days I need to shout,
a whisper can also let it out.
The way I say what I say,
Changes almost every day!

One hundred and Twenty One

2010-05-08T09:42:00.000-07:00

Are you thinking of a new pet?
Please, Please, don't forget,
There are many in shelters and pounds,
Whose love for you would know no bounds!

One hundred and Twenty

2010-05-06T14:21:00.000-07:00

Flippantly we say the word Mother,
yet we can't help but love her,
she introduced us to the world,
once inside her you were curled!

One Hundred and Nineteen

2010-05-06T14:01:00.000-07:00

My best friend was an animal,
Me and them made me full!
They may have "simply" been a pet,
Yet the loss fills me with regret!

One Hundred and Eighteen

2010-05-06T13:34:00.000-07:00

I try to say what I mean,
But there are meanings so unseen.
What I write is always true,
Even if it embarasses you!

One Hundred and Seventeen

2010-05-06T11:19:00.000-07:00

She worries about how her hair looks,
I wonder now "Does she read books?"
What is important is inside you,
not the fancy new hair "Do"!

One hundred and Sixteen

2010-05-06T11:12:00.000-07:00

A lie is just a scar on the soul,
Think about the truth you stole.
Try being honest, try being true,
People will think far more of you!

One Hundred and Fifteen

2010-05-06T10:56:00.000-07:00

Why are some people always so fake?
The lies they tell, your soul does take!
The truth you can feel, comes from the heart,
Honesty, trust that's a good way to start!

One Hundred and Fourteen.

2010-05-03T11:20:00.000-07:00

I thank you all for reading this,
Poetry seems to be dismissed.
Eloquence I try to share,
I thank you all for being there!

One Hundred and Thirteen.

2010-05-03T10:58:00.000-07:00

Election fever grips us all,
But will my choice make the country fall?
I decide to vote "None of the Above"
They don't deserve my voting love!

One Hundred and Twelve

2010-05-01T10:44:00.000-07:00

To look, to see, to live, to BE,
To dream, to imagine, what is ME?
To hurt, to feel, to hope in vain,
To know the joy, I feel the pain?

One Hundred and Eleven

2010-04-20T11:16:00.000-07:00

When the sun shines it makes me grin,
As if it glows from within.
It makes my smile extra bright,
and helps me feel the delight!

It's warmth and light on my face,
beaming down from outer space,
heat from that far away,
insists that I enjoy my day!

One Hundred and Ten

2010-04-13T12:14:00.000-07:00

You are the god of your fish tank,
If they could pray it is you they would thank.
Please remember to change the water,
Treat it like a favourite daughter.

Imagine what you would do,
If everything needed by you,
The stuff on which you rely,
Was supplied by the thing in the sky!

One Hundred and Nine

2010-04-08T11:18:00.000-07:00

I wish I were a child again,
To bounce off things and feel no pain.
Knowing the world will never end,
all you meet is a new friend.

Learning what to say and do,
Everything fresh and new,
Run around, jump and dance,
and if I want, pee in my pants!

One Hundred and Eight

2010-03-31T14:15:00.000-07:00

Days like this I don't want to talk,
Around my home I walk and stalk.
Knowing not what to do,
I cuddle cats and think of you.

One Hundred and Seven

2010-03-20T11:03:00.000-07:00

Scarlett seems a superb child,
Loving with a touch of wild.
In her eyes you can see,
there's someone she would love to be!

In her look, the number one,
she idolises her Vikkeh Mum.
But when her mum starts to whinge,
Scarly kicks her in the minge!

One Hundred and Six

2010-03-10T11:24:00.000-08:00

There is a purple button,
I press and I feel great.
Get your mind out of the gutter!
It's Charity, You donate!

It's completely free to press it,
It only takes a Click!
If you can't see the advantage,
You must be really thick!

One Hundred and Five

2010-03-08T15:51:00.000-08:00

The world boils down to/
A picture of what could be/
Will you let it be?

One Hundred and Four

2010-03-02T10:34:00.000-08:00

You are my island in a turbulent ocean.
You are my "Still" while the world is in motion.
You make me think in a different way.
You make me enjoy every day!

One Hundred and Three

2010-02-28T14:38:00.000-08:00

I spiral down, Don't want to speak.
Mentally I must be weak.
My face, it may show a grin,
Yet there is such turmoil within.

One Hundred and Two

2010-02-24T11:27:00.000-08:00

I wish I could look in to people's heads,
Opened like books, laid out to be read.
I have to make do with internet stuff,
Blogs and Twitter, but is it enough?

Does someone's typing reveal thier soul,
Or do they have a different goal?
I say what I think and what I feel,
But I always hide more than I reveal!

One Hundred and One

2010-02-22T14:11:00.000-08:00

In the land of the blind the one-eyed man is king,
But, A one-legged man at an ass kicking contest?
That simply ain't his thing!

One Hundred

2010-02-11T09:09:00.000-08:00

In all I do I try and impress her,
Always worry I will hurt or depress her,
Every day I have a little dream,
Silly or impetuous as it may seem,
The time will come when I get to undress her!

Ninety Nine

2010-02-08T14:58:00.000-08:00

I have the thought of becoming blind,
A greater terror I cannot find.
The sights I see become none,
You see a friend? You see no-one.

Ninety Eight

2010-02-05T12:54:00.000-08:00

Follow Friday is not a chore,
Everyone I follow I adore.
Want the best of the Twitter game?
See who I follow and do the same!

Ninety Seven

2010-02-02T09:48:00.000-08:00

White light is made from every colour,
All combining with each other.
This, our planet, should be the same,
Yet we don't get on, it's such a shame!

Ninety Six

2010-02-01T17:03:00.000-08:00

Before I sleep I need to say,
In oh such, a very Small way,
I hoped you met a sexy guy,
Someone who really caught your eye.

That during that "Happy Hour",
You found the one, your heart devoured.
You deserve all of your hearts desire,
Not be dragged in to my mire!

Ninety Five

2010-02-01T15:59:00.000-08:00

Health and Safety has gone insane,
It infers that you have no brain!
A Sign that says "This will hurt!"
"Up your Bum!" I tend to blurt.

A machine with many rotating parts,
Obviously hurts more than Chili Farts.
I really don't need a sign to say,
"Losing fingers ruins your day!"

Ninety Four

2010-01-28T16:32:00.000-08:00

Some people may like what I write,
Others think it total shite,
I'm afraid, now, it's not all you,
It is simply what I do.

My poetry may not be very good,
yet it sustains me more than food.
To write these things is not a chore,
It feels like what I was born for!

Ninety Three

2010-01-28T14:09:00.000-08:00

Have you ever thought, why we do what we do?
Are the choices you make really by You?
When you decide, or make a choice,
Do you just listen to your single voice?

Or do you pause to look around,
Trying to hear that other sound?
We can learn from more than just speech,
Nature, around us, has so much to teach!

Ninety Two

2010-01-26T14:13:00.000-08:00

Sometimes I feel I have nothing left,
My Heart, My Soul, Inside bereft.
Sometimes I have a different view,
that every day is something new!

Ninety One

2010-01-25T14:49:00.000-08:00

There is something special about reading a book,
In to other worlds, they give you a look!
Through all those letters on a page,
You feel your imagination engage.

You create a world inside your mind,
but what would somebody else find?
Would the faces be the same as you,
Or would they see a different view?

Ninety

2010-01-22T15:04:00.000-08:00

You are always my Hearts desire,
You always set my life afire.
I really don't know what to do,
When all my thoughts are "YOU, YOU, YOU!"

Eighty Nine

2010-01-22T13:12:00.000-08:00

Sometimes, someone grabs your thoughts,
Overwhelms you like Juggernauts,
Makes you think it can't be true,
You can't believe, they like you!

You must always believe yourself,
No matter what your mental health.
Self confidence is just the thing,
To make you think you are the King!

You feel the tickle of self doubt?
Don't be scared to let it out,
Ask, "What do you think of me?"
The Answer is "You set me free!"

Eighty Eight

2010-01-22T12:58:00.000-08:00

I work the week to fund my life,
The weekend is free of strife.
If the day begins with S,
In my head, I shout "YES!"

Eighty Seven

2010-01-18T14:48:00.000-08:00

I've just seen how many read my blog,
I sit here with my face agog.
To think you all read my stuff,
Simply turns my soul to fluff.

I deeply thank you from my heart,
I realise it's not high art,
Yet you decide to hear my voice,
Even, Seemingly by Choice!

Eighty Six

2010-01-16T13:47:00.000-08:00

My Family get better day by day,
They love me in that special way.
With just a look they let you know,
They will follow, Where you go.

Your decisions may be bad,
You may even make them sad.
But when you see that look of love
It feels better than a silken glove.

Eighty Five

2010-01-15T11:22:00.000-08:00

I really have enjoyed today,
I forced my self in a different way.
Working hard is always fun,
but now the weekend has begun.

I choose my thoughts to be upbeat,
Happy is not a major feat.
Feel Sanity on the brink?
Tell your Brain, Joy to think!

Eighty Four

2010-01-13T12:36:00.000-08:00

Today my life is slightly better,
Even though I can't forget her.
Maybe it will turn out right,
If I get over my fright?

Eighty Three

2010-01-12T10:46:00.000-08:00

Today has been a really bad day.
I've said things that I hate to say.
I guess that with some strange sense,
I thought it was in self defence.

Eighty Two

2010-01-11T15:15:00.000-08:00

I look at myself in a different way.
I don't know how else I can say,
The way, and things, you make me feel.
The life I live feels far more real.

Eighty One

2010-01-11T15:02:00.000-08:00

Sometimes there are things I want to say,
But the words simply scare me away.
It is easy to type on here,
Say out loud? I live in fear.

Eighty

2010-01-10T11:58:00.000-08:00

Suddenly I feel a massive pressure,
to write the poems that you may treasure.
Maybe it's the number Eighty,
That makes this all extremely weighty?

I really hope I don't let you down,
That my poetry won't make you frown.
But it is simply a compulsion,
Like lighting the fuse on rocket propulsion!

Seventy Nine

2010-01-06T12:19:00.000-08:00

When was the last time,
You told your Mum you love her?
That in Mum ratings,
No-one is above her?

Seventy Eight

2010-01-05T15:05:00.000-08:00

I want to sleep.
I really do.
But my thoughts are racing,
Racing you.

Seventy Seven

2010-01-05T13:47:00.000-08:00

Eleven Followers?
Can this be true?
From my heart,
I say "Thank You!"

Seventy Six

2010-01-04T13:39:00.000-08:00

Sometimes we feel nothing but pain,
other times we enjoy the rain.
I wish I were more self aware,
Maybe then I wouldn't Scare?

Seventy Five

2010-01-04T13:32:00.000-08:00

I try to be happy,
Really, I do.
Sometimes I am,
More broken than you.

Seventy Four

2010-01-02T14:06:00.000-08:00

How do fish sleep,
When they can't close the eye,
that for me wishes,
the last day goodbye?

Seventy Three

2009-12-31T15:46:00.000-08:00

There is a pressure,
Pressing down on me.
From suspicion,
To Fact.
I wish,
I could,
surrender.
But we all
Simply retract!

Seventy Two

2009-12-31T15:35:00.000-08:00

This tree looks on Fire/
Or is it just Autumn Time?/
How do we compare?

Seventy One

2009-12-30T11:11:00.000-08:00

I think there is something wrong,
With what most of us do.
How often in a day,
Do you simply say "Thank You"?

"Manners cost nothing",
I'm sure you've heard before,
But really using manners,
Opens a different door.

People look at you,
in a very different way.
If as you pass you wish them all,
"Have an amazing day!"

Seventy

2009-12-29T11:18:00.000-08:00

The whole world is a war zone.
With killing all around.
Death is all about us,
both above and under ground.

Seventy (NOT MINE)

2009-12-28T15:41:00.000-08:00

This is what I dream of one day being able to construct....

Post Christmas time lets hope your fears
Were brought to nought, with no shed tears.
For gifts were given with love I'm sure
And accepted the same by you and yours.

Sixty Nine

2009-12-28T15:15:00.000-08:00

The title should be fun enough,
For Comedy, I add the word Muff!

Sixty Eight

2009-12-28T14:47:00.000-08:00

There is a Lady
who owns my thoughts,
She makes me feel
I accomplish nought.

But still, in another way,
I couldn't live without,
she always enlivens me.
fills my world with doubt.

Sixty Seven

2009-12-27T10:24:00.000-08:00

Cats and Dogs are not different sides.
How they behave, the owner decides!
Live in peace they really can,
Simply ask Cesar Milan!

I don't celebrate New Year,
I celebrate New Day!
Each and every day is special.
Live it, that way!

Sixty Five. (Now a Poem, And a plea)

2009-12-26T12:32:00.000-08:00

This is a plea for comments,
If you hate it, I want to know.
If all comments are good,
They just inflate Ego!

I've made a pledge "Never Delete",
a poem from on this site
But, Some, I will Edit them.
To try to polish shite!

PS, If you would like to suggest titles instead of numbers feel free, I will add the best suggestions to the numbers.

Sixty Four

2009-12-26T12:15:00.000-08:00

Where would we be without Television?
Forced to make our own decision,
Of what we want to do?

Instead of only sitting and watching,
Other plans could be hatching,
Of what we want to do?

The Tv shows us many choices,
But do we have our own voices?
Of what we want to do?

To be outdoors with Friendly faces,
Exploring new and exciting places.
That's what I want to do!

Sixty Three

2009-12-25T13:15:00.000-08:00

I know a girl called Madison Jane,
She fills my world with Joy.
But when she was just a bump,
I wished she was a Boy.

Now I see my amazing Niece,
The "Boy" thing gives me guilt.
Yet still, and also, to my relief,
A relationship has been built.

She lets me know what life can be.
In everything there can be fun.
(You can also sleep anytime,

This day is for the children,
And I'm a grown up kid,
but when it gets to bedtime,
Farewell this day I bid!

Is there anything better than a cuddle?
Or even just a hug?
Nothing is more likely to put a smile,
On this persons ugly mug!

The festive day is almost over,
I'm full of Christmas cheer.
But I really just can't wait,
'Til boxing day is here!

I'm sorry.
I simply can't stop.

I'll try to write poems,
Til my brain goes POP!

In my world it feels like,
There is some kind of void.
I simply try to fill it,
but then just get annoyed.

Do you know, How to join me?
Do you look on and quake in fear?
Or is the void who you are?
Your Heart, Your compassionate ear?

They will hate it all, everything I give.
They will grin and bare it. It's how we live.
I will pretend to all, I love my gifts.
They will know I'm nothing but a spend thrift.

My Dad is who I look up to,
He's taught me so many things.
To know him is better than Red Bull,
His humour gives me wings!

I have a list of all my dreams.
I tick them off one by one.
It's better than a list of things,
I wish, or should, have done.

Happy is a state of mind.
You can choose to be this way!
Just stop and think about it.
What made me happy today?

Christmas is, again, upon us,
I should really greet it with joy.
The best that I can wish for,
Is a shiny new gadget or toy!

Six of you now follow my stuff?
I worry, Is my talent enough?
All I do is spew out my brain,
To prevent me from going insane!

I know most of this is bad.
You probably wince in pain.
Think yourself lucky,
I'm not "Chocolate Rain"

I try to Rhyme.
For The Fiftieth time.
My face goes pale,
As I realise I fail.

.

Oh No I didn't.
(Oh Yes you did!)
Who am I trying to kid?

Science Fiction or Science Fact?
