Allow Me

my day to be special.
Move the sun to one side,
stand in my light,
mine alone.
See me for who I am
and what you mean to me.
And when I’m gone,
don’t lean against
my shadow,
or mourn the moon’s
reflection.
Listen instead to my
footsteps
as I walk by your side.

Rowland.

Moving On:
When your light has faded from my dreams,
I shall open my eyes and know your journey
has ended, even though it has just begun.

On A Mountain

You touched the back
of my hand, wanting me
to see what you saw.
I closed my eyes
wanting you to feel
what I felt.

@LisaCuttsAuthor I know how heartbreaking it is. My thoughts are with you 💙

[Rowland Hughes @shedwriter]

If I were to slip
quietly into your dream,
will you know me?
If I were to speak of love,
would you recognise
me by my words?
If I were to show you
moments precious
to us both,
will you remember them?
If I reached out
to touch your hand,
would you guide my
world into yours?

My old life. Average trip to work.. 20 minutes. He knew I wouldn’t answer because I was driving. But he kept calling anyway. He had nothing to say.
This is controlling behaviour. Abuse. PLEASE speak out. There are good people out there who can help. Asking for help saved me.

Hush

a child sleeps. A dim light,
tears gently touched dry
and the day's tantrum
slips quietly into a dream.

This is our moment of
reflection, we breathe
together, as love's magic
touches our soul.

Dear 2021. Goodbye, and thank you. A year of ups and downs. The lowest lows, and the highest highs. Tears of absolute pain and total joy. Family, friends I never knew I had and a new husband who have all been by my side. Dear 2022, please be kind.. to ALL of us. My love. 💕🌸

All done! Great to see Keith again, he gave Gabby his jab too. Told me he worked a 12.5 hour day yesterday giving people their boosters. What a star. His top tip to help with side effects, apart from paracetamol, is to drink loads of fluids 💧

My Garden

A place to be lonely in,
listening to the shadows
trying so hard
to inhabit the light,
counting the moments,
one-by-one,
wondering if a part of me
has grown unnoticed.

Rowland.

#bbcqt thought we were moving forward with mental health issues. If a player broke a leg on the court, would you expect them to give an interview before they were taken to hospital.
