Let’s Go to the Moon
What shall I do today? I’ll take the kids to the park to play. Or maybe climb a hill , Reaching the top looking down is such a thrill. Maybe I can go shopping, Buy a new outfit for the weekend to go disco bopping. Building sandcastles on the beach, The sun so hot biting […]

Someone Turned the Light On At Last !
I’ve come to a big realization this weekend. I’ve no idea if it’s due to the fact that I’ve been on anti depressants for years now and my Drs’ practice messed up, didn’t put them in my medication pack so I haven’t had any for 10 days despite trying to ring and sort it out……. […]

The Mask
Who shall i be today What mask shall i wear ? Let’s make it bright a cheery One that matches my hair. Inside I feel so fustrated and sad, No one wants to see that as it makes them feel bad. Grab my lipstick and draw on a smile, Hope that it’s durable and lasts […]

Take a chance and climb ….
Keep your eyes forwards you are almost there, Don’t look back you’ll give yourself a scare. Moving forwards is as hard as going back , But the future is unknown the last few years have been crap. One hand at a time just pull yourself higher, Til’ your whole body’s in pain and your lungs […]

Bah Humbug…
Christmas is a time of cheer, Not for me I often hear. Lot’s to do and people to see, A thousand decorations to put on the tree. The internet shopping til 3am, Fall asleep, wake up… do the same again. Searching for that present you just can’t find, Naughty Santa for leaving it behind! All […]

Who am I…
Who am I ?…I don’t know anymore. I used to laugh so much, now I’m such a bore! Broken, I can’t see what piece goes where, I’m trying, doctors can’t even tell so why should I care. Everyone says I’m still me but I’m not as this isn’t how I’d live my life. Feeling completely […]
