The stormy skies are leaving
The sun is pushing through
Spring is round the corner
The warmth is coming too
You may struggle with the darkness
But it doesn’t stay for long
The cold nights ..are almost gone
The flowers push in colour
And the birds begin too sing
Butterflies appear ,with pretty coloured wings
Winter is recoiling to make way for the new
The grass is glistening in the early morning dew
Streams bubble and dazzle in the light
Stars will sparkle in warm clear nights
Gather round the camp fire
Lay upon on the ground
Listen to the grasshoppers and their mesmerising sound
Summer is for happy
Sunshine soothes the soul
Things will feel much better
When the sky is full of gold

Narcissist
When the world keeps spinning
But mine is still
Do you really have more love to kill?
You walk around without a care
You pulled me into your toxic lair
Broken promises
And shattered dreams
My heart is breaking at the seems
You’re so rigid
You’re so fake
Loving you was a huge mistake
You’re heart is cold
It’s made of stone
You’d be better on your own
You can’t be though
Your needs are high
I’m so glad i said goodbye

Broken Britain
Here comes junky Johnny
He’s come to score
He’s brother said their mums a whore
He drives around a broke old van
He’s mother lives in a caravan
Their kids are wretched
He’s wife is blue
He’s eldest son is on the glue
He lost his job years ago
The drinking problem did ever grow
Two bottles of whiskey to pass the day
He’s poor old wife would always pay
It’s grim round here lass
You should make a move
Folks round here got things to prove
There’s gobby Debbie at 73
And her old man with the dodgy knee
The fight each night like cat and dog
The police come round on the dot
Come on you two call it a day
Some of us have bills to pay
The council house is damp and poor
Not a stitch of carpet on the floor
You wouldn’t choose it ..the life of despair
But it will get you if you don’t care
Learn your sums now
Go to school
So your be no bodies fool
It’s no good though
The genes are bad
You’re do nothing worthwhile with that lad
He’s fit for nothing
His parents poor
If you see him coming best bolt the door
He’ll steel your purse
Right out ya bag
And use your change to buy some fags
His sister sarah
Didn’t take the pill
She had a baby
But the babies illl
Or that’s what the neighbours thought
But the babies mum was up in court
Well try again sarah said
As she wearily laid on the bed
Her tummy rumbled her tears they flowed
How will her baby grow
Tomorrow’s another day
But to leave this place she’ll have to pray
Nothings good here ..days are hard
Maybe she’ll buy a scratch card
dream of money and feeling well
Instead of this god dam hell
Not a winner not this time
Oh well it’s another night of crime
When will it get better on this estate
Some bastards smashed her garden gate
No one gives a shit round here
She wishes she could disappear
She’s had enough now
She’s need a break
Get her out of here for fucks sake!
She never stood a chance
Poor sarah
She was brought up by a carer
Her mum left years before
Sarah heard her shut the door
In the cold and dark she stood
Alone and frightened but understood
Her mum had run to get away
She couldn’t do another day
The depravity it gets in the bones
And eats away in silent moans
If you do not leave this hell
That’ll be your life as well
Come on kids there’s gangs to run
At eleven you can have a gun
It’s easy money selling gear
It’ll make your problems disappear
It’s bad round here
Just like they said
Any aspirations put to bed
Get that bullshit out ya head
And get your arse upstairs to bed
There’s no hope for boys like you
For there’s fuck all to do
Wishing is pointless and dreaming’s mad
You’re always end up like your Dad

The Tree
The tree’s empty of leaves and song
It’s summer skin, all but gone
As Summer yonder’s
In pastures old
The pink sky mornings brightness.. folds
Meadows golden in dusk sunlight
Have disappeared into hazy night
The cold wind blows across the hill
As winter lays its deathly ill
Nights are frosty in glistening light
As snow falls in showers of white
The roads are empty
The streets are still
As moonlight casts its shadowy chill
It won’t be long it will be gone
And days will again be long
With babbling brooks
And orange skies
And pretty coloured butterflies
The tree is singing again once more
It’s summer skins been restored
It’s gently swaying in the breeze
Showing off its beautiful leaves

When you’re tired and weary
And you don’t know what to do
Listen in the silence
Your soul will speak to you
It knows what you should be doing
It knows which path to take
Everything that happens is never a mistake
Trust in the process
And to yourself be true
You’re only evolving
To be a better you
It’s kinda crazy to think that
You’d pick some difficulties
But it’s all part of the process
You’re see eventually
You agreed before you got here
The lessons you would learn
It may seem completely pointless
But it is all to guide you home
And when you’re journeys over
However long that be
You”ll meet with those before you
And you’re never want to leave
So remember what I’ve said here
And don’t be scared to grow
You’re soul knows what it’s plan is
So go out, live and glow
Ali J ❤️

Thank you @fuckedlxl and everyone who got me to 25 reblogs!
I don’t know where I’m going
The roads too dark to see
I know where I’ve come from
There’s been a lot of misery
The path it isn’t certain
It’s hidden by the trees
It bends around the corner
It’s not insight for me
Life’s not always easy
Tough times aren’t meant too last
I’m praying that you guide me
Along this unknown path

I wrote this a few years ago
FATE
Do you remember me?
Do I ever cross your mind
Do I pop into your memory
Or did you stay blind
I think about you sometimes
You fall into my thoughts
I have to protect me
So I don’t get caught
It’s been a long time since I saw you
I still see your face
At times you’re still with me
Like a ghost that walks my place
I hope you are happy
I hope life’s been kind
If I bumped into you ..I probably wouldn’t mind
Everything happens for a reason
Or so they say
if only things had been different on that day
I was really sorry but it was too late
My words were clumsy or maybe it was fate
I guess there was a plan that I could never see
And maybe …it just wasn’t meant to be

So a year has passed since I sat by your side while you left this world,. We love you and miss you so much. ❤️
A year has gone by ..
where did that go?
In one way it passed slowly
But it really went too fast
But all the cherished memories will forever last
I hear you in my garden
I miss you in my head
I see you before I close my eyes when I’m
laying in my bed
We speak of you always
in fondness and in kind
We know you walk with us
Quietly by our side
Your are always in our thoughts
A forever guiding light
I know you are the brightest star that shines at night
And when I’m feeling hopeless
And when I’m feeling blue
I know you are pushing me along
Saying “come on what’s up with you”
Pick yourself up now
It’s really not that bad
I’m only over here,
And I’ll always be your Dad x

Something I wrote in lockdown
In the afternoon of twilight
Gather round me
Roar with insanity at the world as it be
Walk in it with courage
Mock it’s crazy lair
Stumble through it’s confusion twiddling your hair
Notice it’s frantic lunacy
Pleasure it’s delight
When you come to rest with it, bid it goodnight
For in the morning risings
It will be the same,
Ride with all its glory on the early train
Stop to view the sunrise poke above the trees
And bow to it’s greatness as it brings you to your knees
Work hard for its sterling
For this is England now
To all you gentleman take a steady bow
This is not forever, this is just today
This is not the future it won’t always be this way ❤️

This will always be my place
A place to breathe the spring air …to meander amongst the bluebells
For summer, … strolling upon the dusty ground as the sunlight twinkles amongst the treetops ..a celestial paradise of
beautiful sunsets, of birdsong
Autumn’s grace .. leaves forming a colourful carpet beneath my feet
For winter.. on cloudy days, tree tops shadows across the sky, or where winter sun illuminates the air, wind whisking through the naked treetops
This will always be my special place
A place of contemplation.. a happy space. A place to shout into the ether, a place to sit for a while on my favourite tree ❤️

Seasons
it was a delight to stumble upon you ..
Beautiful carefree days, when summer blossom grew.. and trees shadowed golden fields
Days of blazing sun… and birds crossing pink sunset skies
For now it is heavy of winter once again
emptiness and grey..
Rain spattered windows and dark tomorrows..
When spring should arrive may it bring days of clarity and of
warmth ..hope and new beginnings
Like new life pushing up the earth
until such day arrives .. smile
… even just for a minute or two
as the memory of summer days comes to grace you once more ❤️

Journey to the Soul
Do not fall for the idea of me,
Don’t tip your toes or tinker around my edges
Sink into the very depth of my existence
Below my surface there’s a sacred place to discover.
Come walk through my meadows,
Pause for a while by the stream of my emotion,
warm yourself by my fireside and the embers of my dreams
Breathe in the fragrance of my flowers whilst my trees blow gently in the breeze,
They whisper my wisdom, if you listen you’ll hear the birds singing on my branches, their chorus is my truth.
And when your journey is reaching an end and your head it is weary, lay your head against my heart,
And I will come and find you, and lay my heart next to yours,
For that is our home ❤️

Heartbreak
You shouldn’t awoke the heart in my chest
If you had no intention of loving the rest..
The good parts, the raw bits, the vulnerable too..
Who are you to choose which parts you
Treasure, and which you throw away..
This is my wholeness and my broken
Not one false word I have spoken
I gave you my heart.. it was yours from the start
You took me to places I never knew,
How can I see differently after that view
How do I turn around and pretend you never existed
My mind it is racing and it is twisted
I feel so empty now you have gone
My tears they roll down my cheeks and into my lap
My life now.. with a gap
I’m sure the void it will fill with time and healing
Still I can’t move on from that feeling
My soul it aches for you today
I’m hoping this pain goes away
I’ll hold myself tighter each night while I’m here
And lean on my friends who hold me so dear
I’ll never forget you whilst I am breathing
And maybe one day when my mind whispers your name
I will be able to smile without sorrow
Today though, I pray for that tomorrow ❤️

When love is new it is freer and easy
But your heart gets opened and tested
your feelings become exposed and invested
things become more difficult to comprehend, but I think love is like a bird my friend.
like placing it in the palm of your hand, you try gently to hold it without hurting, even though you want to hold it so tight.
It’s little body fragile and nervous, it needs care nurture and purpose.
But when it’s so fragile fears start to grow, will it survive this little bird, will it stay or fly away
Then things start to grow in your head and scenarios play out and words burn in your chest
You try with all your power to hold them like a dam holding back a tide
But they show through your face there’s no where to hide
And like poison they build and leak out through your skin and down your cheeks
Words come out sideways and then war it begins
The feelings keep growing and eating your soul
And sometimes you feel like you’ve know where to go
What do you do with the rage that consumes your inner most spaces and it lays inside tombs
The tombs of your darkness that no one else sees, the hidden torturous corridors full of disease.
Then you act on your impulses and you push it away, the one thing you wanted the one thing you needed
So you hang on in there like a moth to a flame
Burning your heart and seeping in pain
The cord gets much tighter and it stretches and frays but you clutch it’s taught ending and you pray and you pray you can make it last just one more day
You don’t want to loose it as you feel it’s tight pull and your on your knees down in the hall
I’m sorry im sorry I held it too tight i hope it’s not broken
I tried with all my mite to love it so gently not to scare it away but that’s ambivalence I live it each day.
So little bird so precious and tender, one day I will remember that just like love you don’t always stay and you need freedom to grow and to play. ❤️

Why I Love Summer 🌅
Summer air
Seaside chair
Ice cream sundae
Happy fun day
Sea toe dips
Salty chips
Midnight drives
Soul revive
Starry night gazing
Campfire blazing
Cola floats
Fishing boats
Garden spaces
Faraway places
Suncream smell
Pretty shells
Waltzer rides
Water slides
Pimms o clock
Pink Flip flops
Sun is glaring
Music’s blaring
Ali J 💖😎

Go wandering in the woodland
Breathe in the summer air
Prance around like children
Sunlight in your hair
Dance amongst the bluebells
Stroll amongst the trees
Watch out for fairies
Hiding in the leaves 🧚♀️
