Fluff Cat Friday!

Hey all,

So today has been manic, and I'm shattered. The combo means this post is in under the wire, sorry.

I wanted to start a new feature which will include a picture of my beloved cat Woozle, who at four years younger than me, wears her age well lol!

I know this is not really fashion related but it gives me the chance to put my musings down along with it. Today I will include a poem I wrote, called "LOVE":


"LOVE"
 
Austen wrote many a tale,
and the Bronte three,
of love and true heroism,
and the beauty of chivalry.
 
Darcy was a solitary man,
who had the love of she,
but when his cold exterior did thaw,
he found his wife to be.
 
Yet even those to whom love is fate,
and will forever see,
will have their troubles true of heart,
before love sets them free.
 
The words I write aim to please,
my ever wandering soul,
for I am in another world,
and yet I have been told,
the world is out there for me to seek,
unlimited lies in front of me.
 
At this moment, in my dream,
I am as steadfast as a tree.
 
Love has always appeared in my life,
over the centuries it remains,
it takes its time to reach full bloom,
and on its way causes many pains
 -
But despite this side affect,
we take the good with the bad,
for the chance you take to fall in love,
is worth the twang of sad.
 


Luv you all,

The Difficult Journey of Love: The Final Poem...

Hey guys,

So this is it. The final chapter of my poetry story "The Difficult Journey of Love", so I have been lucky enough to get to share this with you over a number of weeks and this is the culmination of it.

In this poem, simply titled "..." the couple meet in a park to talk things through after a long emotional ride, the man is once again single but the woman is still with her boyfriend who has the same name as the man, but the man has one last shot so here is:

"..."
 
You once needed me to be true to you,
I thought I was doing the best could do,
I admit that marrying someone else was rash,
When all said and done,
It was gone in a flash.
 
You give me this meeting,
Five minutes that's all -
Before you have to answer that call.
Your new one he loves you,
Yet he has my name -
The games that you play are always the same.
 
I ended it with her,
Please don't cry,
Just tell me your feelings,
And don't ever lie.
 
You tell me you love me,
You always have,
But was worried I'd cheat,
And act like a cad.
 
But when you watched
As I gave her my vow,
You knew I had changed -
And you felt like a cow.
 
Because you wanted to -
Put yourself into her place,
But you gave up that right,
So fled with grace.
 
This day on a park bench,
Surrounded by tress,
You pulled out a ring,
And got down on one knee.
 
You looked up to me,
With a tear in your eye,
Oh how I hate to see you cry,
"These are tears of joy"
You delight as you say,
"I'll love you forever, marry me today"
"I'll be loyal and faithful"
I answer in reply,
"Our history is being written -
And our stars in the sky"
 
I hope you enjoyed it, it felt natural to write,
 
Luv,

The Difficult Journey of Love Part 6: The Last Fight

Hey guys,

So this is the penultimate poem oooh! This one is called "The Last Fight" and well it was very easy to write as although I have never been through love like this I saw this scene play out in my head like a movie. It is the man who is arguing with his current wife before the final poem takes place.

Well it rather speaks for itself:

"The Last Fight"
 
The break up,
The break apart,
The rows and the screams,
With all that it means.
 
The end,
Call time,
On this song,
And this rhyme.
 
We are over,
I'm done,
Come on Hun -
We've had fun.
 
But our child's not mine,
You've wasted my time,
I'm gone, we are over,
Let the bells chime.
 
Final part tomorrow, I hope you like it as much as I do.
 
Luv,

The Difficult Journey of Love Part 5: Too Late

Hey guys,

A short one from "The Difficult Journey of Love" which is from the man point of view as he tries to move on from his true love, well tries at least.

Here it is:

"Too Late"
 
I wish that I had told her,
And told her time again,
Then we could grow older,
Me and my best friend.
 
But now I am with someone else,
Someone that isn't you,
Her beauty really set her free,
And yet she's not the one for me.
 
You will be forever on my mind,
Across all years, throughout all time,
And then when the time is due,
I'll name my daughter after you.
 
 
I hope that you guys have been enjoying this series, I would love to hear what you think.
 
 
Hope you've had a good weekend,

The Difficult Journey of Love Part 4: Closure...

Hey guys,

This is part 4 of 7 so this is heading towards the climax now, I will aim to finish this story by next week. This poem is the woman reeling from watching the man she loves marry someone else and then she tries to find someone else to fill the whole in her heart. Will she be able to do it?

So here it is:

"Closure"
 
Those two words rung out
And are plastered on my heart
As we are not together,
We must learn to live apart.
 
I told myself we are over,
And tried to live on,
I'm definitely getting closure,
By writing down this song.
 
And although my heart is empty,
And you have moved away,
I hope that I will love again,
And this time it will stay.
 
I met a guy yesterday,
Who had a name like yours,
At first I kept my heart at bay
From running out the doors.
 
But with every passing minute,
Your image is fading away,
And in your place,
He will always stay.
 
 
I hope you like this,
 
Luv,

The Difficult Journey of Love Part 3...

Hey guys,

All my exams are over! Yay! I will finish my blog about movies and fashion tonight but for now here is the third part of The Difficult Journey of Love which moves the relationship to a new setting and the woman has taken back the narrative. 

So here it is:

"You Always Had My Heart"

Standing at the altar, 
I'm forever yours,
This should last forever 
But can we ever be sure.

You know all about me,
You always had my heart,
Will this last forever?
Or will we fall apart? 

Make your vows,
And take my hand - 
You'll be forever true - 
You will be my perfect man
And make my dreams come true.

At least for now I hope you'll be,
As I look to you,
As I go to take my vow,
She turns and says,
"I do" ...

I hope you like it guys, part 4 will be posted later this week. 

Luv,

The Difficult Journey of Love Part 2...

Hey guys,

So this is the second episode in my poetry story called The Difficult Journey of Love. This one is the man's reaction to how the woman acts in Shining Rock as I wanted this story to show both sides of love and heartbreak.

So enjoy! 

"The Man With The Broken Heart"

I say that I love you,
And am down on one knee.
Please give me your answer
To my hopeful plea.

You look away,
You turn your back,
You don't give an answer,
I'm taken aback.

You seem to be weighing,
The pros and the cons,
If you don't say a word -
You know I'll be gone,

My heart is broken,
You go to say,
But I don't want to hear it,
So I just walk away...

Luv,

LDN Teenage Fashionista xx♥

Poetry Story: The Difficult Journey of Love...

Hey guys,

I mentioned on Facebook about my poetry story and I have finally finished it so I thought I would post it in instalments. 

The story is told in two perspectives; a man and a woman who we meet at the moment that the man is proposing to the woman. This poem is her trying to work out whether she should say yes.
 
So today is the first of the series enjoy! 

"Shining Rock"
A moment in time.
A rock that shines.
Down on one knee,
You looking up at me.

In that cavern,
The vast expanse,
The sun just visible,
Gone in a glance.

I call to the sky, 
Tell me what to do,
I look to the floor,
And then back to you.

The memories come flooding back,
The games and the scenes, 
fading to black.
I dress up,
They cut me down,
Don't you want someone else around?
- 
Which game will we play today?
You slam the door,
I'll hide away.

I've given you all the chances,
This is your checking move,
Is this battle worth fighting?
Or will I have to lose? 

Will we be Monroe and DiMaggio?
Anthony and Cleopatra? 
Just another tragic love,
That wasn't meant to be...
 
Of will I be the only one, 
The only one for you, 
The shoe that fits,
The house that's right,
Simple, pure and true.

I hope you liked it, next one coming soon...

Luv,
