Dr Jekyll or Mr Hyde ?

A Ghazal Early days were like Sunshine  Before I found out your Deceit  You made me so happy  Hidden in your persona, Deceit  Good memories, Funny Moments  Shaded with Deceit  They will always stay with me  Despite your Deceit  By day, Dr Jekyll  By night, Mr Hyde’s Deceit  Copyright Kizzy York aka K.J.Oakes 2018 

Lockdown Freedom

Lockdown Freedom  Sick of this depression  And feeling so fed up This lockdown hasn’t helped at all I’d sleep all day and night If only I could Can’t wait  till 4th July And we have our own Independence Day So much I’ll want to do by then  Sick of being cooped up  In this house-sized pen  The rest I seek  Is not House Arrest  But going and doing  Something I like best Visiting other places of interest..... Castles, Beaches, Museums,  Galleries.........  So much out there Has gone to waste But - I’ll be back in a haste Don’t want to be rushed Want to set out at a leisurely pace Don’t want to be pushed No longer a race But to ponder ........  Ponder, to my hearts content  Browse and peruse No time to relent  My time is mine now Money well spent !  Copyright Kizzy York aka K.J.Oakes June 2nd, 2020

Will Skegness survive the lockdown?

Start of lockdown I went bed with a frown ma d e me feel so down I can’t do this, I sighed I wake up, panic attack peace is what I lack how can I do this for weeks on end? I go back to  bed,  I can’t go on if this lockdown lasts too long The streets are empty caravan park shut they are closed and empty like a beach hut The town so still no tourists about deader than winter with no way out B and B’s closed hotels to o time on their hands nothing to do  A sobering thought for locals And the odd caravanner Who still have their  reasons For staying on, else they’d be gone They are still here as Government Exemptions apply…… ….. Else Police and Security would make sure,  They’d said Goodbye It ’s  funny As when you ask the locals Where they’re originally from Nottingham, Mansfield, Sheffield The list goes on Tourism will change now I know that for sure People will sell the...

Tears and Fears

No-one sees my silent tears Or feels my hidden fears As I lie here so weak  Exhausted- unable to do hardly anything!  Weaker and Weaker Weaker still  Feel so I'll, no pill Can take away this kind of pain!  So frustrated Having to pace my days Can only do something every other day And then, only morning,  Afternoon or Evening!  Feeling weary, aswell as teary Legs getting weaker still  Feel so I'll Can't get up or down the stairs Without difficulty !  I need a stairlift And a wheelchair Or mobility scooter Why do these things have to be so expensive ?  No fun becoming more and more disabled And having a label Is it the Cancer or Fibro ?  If I soon die, we'll know !  Getting less scared of death I know I am saved  On that day, my pain will cease.  19th December, 2019  Copyright Kizzy York aka K.J.Oakes
