Harry Is A Poet

There should have been trumpets,

And harp strings a plenty

Instead there's just regret

And a head that feels empty

No, not empty. There are echos in there

Echos of a dream. Of a wonderful place wh…

We trapped words in pages and used it to inform the ages

Past and present of everything we'd come to represent

The stories of those who had come before us, the chorus,

Forgetting those stories which wer…

Hey. hey you.

You in the corner.

Or even you at the side.

You, the person who feels empty inside.

Just, please. Remember to smile.

Even if it's not often,

even if it's only once in a while

I swear, reall…

I can't be the only person, who when growing up, thought I was really good at telling if someone was good or bad.

Honestly, it was easy! They'd turn to the audience and then reveal that they were comp…

"Did you not expect us?"

It was a call echoed loud throughout the land

This protest wasn't coordinated

This protest wasn't planned

It was simply and clearly what we had to do.

Ignited by all they had put …

This may stand contrary to all you’ve heard in your life thus far

But if people like you, they like you for who you are

And in my case, that means I like you as someone different to me

As someone with a…

I've always adored punk.

I've adored the way it took no one's word for granted

The way it looked at authority and asked 'why?'

The way anger was encoded in each raw pluck of a guitar string

The way it be…

I was once two cells. Then one.

From the moment, I became someone.

I would grow and grow and get real tall

Now I can’t remember being one cell at all.

And I. Have really. Tried.

I started off easy. I can…

In this hand I call my own

I hold a pale, speckled stone

It’s smooth and hard. I feel its weight.

And I begin to contemplate.

See, with the stone that’s in my hand

There’s many futures I have planned

The p…

Lord, here in this moment I'm praising You

here in this moment I'm praising You

I could pray for hours and days right through

pray for the Spirit I know to be true

I will go from here…

I take the beach as the border
In its place in the order
Of Land. Beach. Sea.
It separates the earth
Twixt the water and the turf
The sand boundary.
The water it fights
Through the day and the night
To steal…

Am I just matter?

Or Do I matter?

Am I just matter or do I matter?

Am I just matter, do I matter?

Am I matter, do I matter?

Am I matter do I matter

What's the matter with me?

Lately I've been livin…

Across the country, on the rails.

Sometimes late, sometimes fails.

No longer followed by billows of smoke.

Reduced often to simple joke.

Yet I'm still a romantic for trains

For all their messes, all…

How long is a piece of string?

Sometimes, I feel as a piece of thread.

Containing turns and knots.

A frayed string.

Never truly aware what is happening.

Most often in life, enjoying the journey

Wea…

You don't always see the darkness in the world.

You don't always know where the shadows lie.

Who is struggling, who needs saving,

Whose hopes are about to die.

Life. It's not pleasant. It's not nice…

The traveller never went far from their heart

Except when they returned

For every time they rested

It was travel that they yearned

So they followed their heart away

Across the sky and sea

Finding re…

"You must enter the arena my child"

Said the father who had survived it all

Survived the feral without becoming wild

And stood at the end, proud and tall

"Only those tested ever get their name in a …

In my village, nothing much ever changes

We don't like to leave and aren't open to strangers

Jobs are passed down from father to son

And have been since our village first begun

Everyone wants to be …

A brief google search tells me a box of make up can cost anywhere from a couple of pounds to an entire student loan.

The reason I have to search is because I have never bought make up before, and it…

I just wrote something down

Hey, look at me: I just wrote something down!

And it may cause some people to smile and some people to frown,

But I did this. I created something new.

It's flawed and i…
