Believing
in yourself...

I have a cloud that follows me,
ink-black and full of sorrow...

I get so tired of being misunderstood
and having no voice to explain...

Mummy cried herself to sleep last night
as she lay sobbing on the couch...

One child
Overheard in a dream...

I wish I had the poetic words to express
the heart-wrenching pain which is rumbling...

And they both reached out
to take the last delicious slice...

The saddest thing you will ever see
is a child's heart longing to be free...

And just like that, he was gone in the night,
leaving empty sheets to lay upon a cold...

This year has started with a spark of hope
exploding inside my heart...

That moment when you want to cry,
but someone makes you laugh...

I close my notebook and put down my pen,
trying to pretend I have nothing more to say...
