Poems from WestLondonMan
Like a lot of us been through shitty parts in my life. In 2018 I was living in London, attending a part time acting school. It was a great time. Also I was presenting at an event, one of the tutors at the acting school took me under his wing and mentored me. Part of that process he taught me how to write poetry, or at least express myself through it. Now, I write a poem every day, I write for a hobby. I've had a varied career, the only thing I can say is writing is the best things I've ever done. I absolutely love it. Have got 14 publications on a short story website and launching my own website in December 2022, http://www.PeterGreenhall.com
Feel free to add any comments. I hope you enjoy reading my poems as much as I enjoyed putting them together.
A little more older,
Wiser,
Than before,
Stupidly.
Not so keen to cause trouble,
Pain is real,
Muscles hurt,
Fundamentally.
Out with...
All started out,
So promising,
A polite young boy,
So promising.
Curly haired,
A little naive too,
Got the crap kicked out of me,
Older...
1980's was the time,
Mental illness in family,
To talk about it ,
Was a crime.
Grew up totally alone,
No one to turn too,
No helpline,
No...
All started out,
So young you see,
Gymnastics, Athletic's,
Happily.
Life changed,
It became rough,
Lost a parent,
Head in a thick trough...
How can we see this through,
Rates rising, Inflation too,
How much more,
Can we take from you?
Blame the war,
A far gone place,
Energy...
