On the days that my mind fades and my smile weakens


And patience is a virtue that we have forgotten to keep warm,


I make my way into the corners of my heart,


Wandering through dusty chambers and unswept veins


To find the deepest and darkest crevice in which to rest;


It is here that I sit and unfold our memories.


I brush off any harsh words that have clung to my coat


And wrap myself in our first encounter,


The beginnings of love.


I take out the soft words one by one and watch the curve of your words tremble


As I hold them up to the light.


I flick through the album of favourite moments,


Recall our matching smiles and conjoined hands.


I pick out secret glances and kissed noses from the jumble of affection,


Try them on as if they were flannel pajamas and fur winter coats.


I cradle the glow of shining eyes and flushed cheeks in my hands;


Their warmth creeping into dimples and freckles that have not been embraced or grazed upon in a while.


I hold our love close as I remember, not regret.


Every morning I make my way into the corners of my heart,


And every morning you make your way into its centre,


And every morning I wake up and find that I love you more than I did last night.

A page from my diary.

To quote the almighty Pogues, 'I'll love you till the end...'

Everyday, I make a list of things that I need to do. Sometimes, they're silly mindless mundane things, like 'do the dishes' or 'paint the hallway' or something or other. And then sometimes, they're things that I need to remind myself of, like 'take each day as it comes'. And sometimes, they're tasks that would seem so simple to most people, like 'get out of bed', when sometimes they're the hardest ones to complete.

I thought I'd share yesterday's list with you, because everyone's art on here is an insight into that person and their life, so here's an insight into mine. It's nothing maybe of particular importance, but yesterday was a good day for a change. I'm probably not the only one with lists like these, but I know I'm one who's not afraid to share them.

Sorry if I'm rambling, haha :)

I wrote this after baking white chocolate brownies.
Nothing says self-reassurance like a note to self and a brownie straight outta the oven :)

"I promise to love you inbetween embraces and dreams,
and when your time here flickers and your heart's rhythm is softer,
do not linger but kiss me sweetly and I...

You don’t see it;
The cogs and the screws and the rotting wheels with the hinges coming loose,
That are holding this body together.

You don’t see it;

They came down on you so quick;
Crashed down over you,
Smothered you, embraced you –
Loved you even.

Lost in the light of the blue and the gold,
They washed away you...

Your boots,
Battered and worn
And your blue chequered shirt
With the pocket half-torn,
Lays empty and crumpled at
The foot of your bed;
Has laid there since the mornin...

Think.
Too many seconds pass by.
Lost amongst the clutter and the chaos,
The sweeping and the silence;
The emptiness that is this room.

Stop.
Go back to the boxe...
