I'll Dress Up.

kevin browne

 

I'll dress up and pretend I live in hell
With a wicked and the moment I froze
Taken away from a place I love well
There where an open door was closed.

I'll make do with whatever is needed
A promise of hope and some glory
It's sad where the devil has seeded
When jealous crops an odd story.

I'll see to this with a lower note
That plays away on a field of misery
Some may say we may need to gloat
Pens that lead me directly to my diary.

I'll weather fair on a needle an' stitch
Along my seams of broken hearted
The living history of a broom and witch
A Spell-bound lonely for it has parted.

I'll say it with sour taste in my gloom
Where life has a practical passion
Set alight the fiery flame of doom
With the loss of 5-star fashion.

I'll think of this as a heartbreak hotel
Where lovers live and a kiss for the weary
Stay up late in a devilish darkness well
Wherein the end nobody believed me.

I'll in retrospect take a hindsight an' look
when things diminish responsibly not
where at home a Scotch broth and cook
dipped your tongue in to feel how hot.

I'll fair thee well upon a cottonmouth
Regrets, we've all made it the same
I'll stay warmed in mine own house
God loved whoever it was to blame.

    Thanks Kev for that lovely powerful poem.

    One thing I know I will certainly have to dress up as the cold and bleak winter in the UK is definitely upon us.
    Keep writing
