you’re not alone

It’s not a weakness to reach out for a friend. We all need someone to trust. Loneliness is a terrible thing. I’ve been in crowded rooms and never felt so lonely.

We all need a ‘home’ in our heart. I sometimes think it’s harder for men to express how they feel but there are plenty of kind women out there – we’re not all out to hurt you. It starts with friendship and sharing with truth and honesty and then the rest follows organically.

I am worrying for someone today. I want to send so much love. Time alone is beautiful and sometimes we need to recharge. To let go and find our ‘self’ then we can see what it is we would like most to follow.

Tiffy.

Seven songs for the #moon #GuestBlog

I
I watched a
thistledown child
glide through a
fairground, silver
balloon bobbing
obedient behind her

***

II
He comes round here,
hammering down the door
arse hanging out of his trousers
pissed again, and babbling
about wolves.

***

III
A single blossom,
White, in her
Midnight-tangled hair

***

IV
We set out across the Sea of Tranquillity,
In a silver boat, and our nacreous oars
Left a milky wake. We were lulled into dreams
filled with white water lilies.

***

V
It is a Well Attested Fact
That the Great Belly of the Moon
Brings forth Snakes and Worms
And other Noxious Creatures.

***

VI
The moon sings her slow song,
Teaching the sea to dance,
Always a little out of step
With the sun. And why not?

***

VII
Harvest nights,
Golden moon,
Secret sweetness
In the apple,
Golden carpet
In the field,
Golden kisses
In the night.
