A Queen’s Poem

70 years on the throne, That’s a lot of time that’s come and gone, And there are those who say you should go, But many more who for your party have put on a show, No matter what you are a still a worldwide giant, You resemble a country that despite it’s problems remains defiant,Continue reading “A Queen’s Poem”

Didn’t Skip A Beat

They said that they’d hurt you and you were crying,I wanted to feel for you,Like I used to, I wanted to rush there and help you pick up the pieces,And help you find where peace is,It could have been so sweet,But my heart didn’t skip a beat, For so long my head was telling meContinue reading “Didn’t Skip A Beat”
