Fragile Friend
Fragile Friend by Marie E. Kelly from the Mad in Ireland Poetry Collection
Her and the same
I. Her
I don’t recognise her
But I know who she is
And I know what she did
I don’t recognise her
But I feel what she felt
And I...
Birthright
You don’t need me to hold your hand
For you are more powerful than you know.
We can cross paths and embrace
Inspire each other, sow seeds...
Over Encumbered
Weighed down and carrying too much.
Leaning too heavy on this damn crutch.
Words flow like rivers but lead to no action.
Talking about plans that gain...
Being a whole some, sum
How can we be whole?
How can we be some-one, some time
All the time or just part time?
These days I’m lucky, mostly feel whole.
No- I...
