About me - Dylan Darroch

I am just below 30 looking up, and by the time you read this 30 will probably be below me and I will have aged some more.

I have travelled world wide, I am currently in Europe but my heart will always be in China where I lived and studied and worked

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: My broken heart: 1 of 64

Shall we set our minds a drift Sitting soundly we humbly shift Casting chasms rift by rift Thoughts like icing sugar slowly sift And if inspiration bid us well Pasts like heaven or like hell Riding every random swell But still a tail I hope to tell Once a man with pride and grace Gracious host of stately race Greatest amongs...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Water: 1 of 64

May life flow from water into eternity Molding and shaping, making seas Holding, creating new you’s and me’s May life flow like water Filling, folding, fitting, finding Creeks and crevasses Streams and rivers Mainstreams; springs and brooks Let life cycle like water; From rushing torrents To frozen depths Humid c...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Reality: 2 of 125

From a dream I awoke Deep beneath the dreadful blankets on my bed Massive pillows holding up my weary head. The dream was of a simple back stage act or plan To a simple TV show You may have been there too Of that I do not know. And I dreamt of those I knew, Some you may have known too. And the scene the set of worldly life; ...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Drowning in a pool of my own loneliness: 1 of 39

Emerging from the depths of your frozen ocean Unable to warm myself Warn myself about uncontrolled shivering Warring with blues and purples and every other color of the deep Aging lips wrinkled and writhing reflecting in icy mirrors more hues of reddish dark blues Blanketed bodies conserving wha...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Faith in God: 5 of 160

Logically lost Pathlessly pathetic Searching, heretic God and doubt Hate and Fate Faith and Fear Create debate Black and white Like day and night But who are we in this world of words More or less than what’s observed? More I hope than what I’ve heard. And things I’ve seen Places and people touched and been...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: My life: 6 of 161

A new life please, this one don't fit, Half way through No, Probably not yet. Poor and destitute? No. I've lost few bets. Sadly money has never made anyone happy yet. Nor rich can I claim to be, Got a few nice things, whoopee! Joy? Don't toy with me, It's been the same old life, Ten years time three. Family? They're doing fi...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Life's road: 1 of 23

Broken Bricks lay upon a path Towns once proud knelt to nature’s wrath Careless time she does not strife; Causing pain, renewal, death and life. The path is long though it’s not bare, Broken bricks lay everywhere, And half dead buildings yet to fail. And those with eyes to see; Be reminded the past was there. And...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: My muse: 1 of 21

Classical music playing in the back ground fair, My eyelids open still nothing there, Close my eyes again and ponder, My mind; keep control? Or let it wander? My Muse I seek her to fill my veins, Blue blood like ink to wet my pen again. Does she exist to those fully sane? If not I shall simply lose control. Free my mind, and...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: The written word: 1 of 21

Words we use Merely give us clues And meanings choose… Or Chosen, So it came to me Could there be Communication far less frozen; Put aside, for you’s and I’s Grammar, laws and lies Leave a space like the milky way Eyes and days emerald in sunshine. Setting free imprisoned reality With colors, shapes and si...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Faith vs. doubt: 2 of 32

Faithfully yours Blessedly blind Features of faith, reigning like time Raining like wine; Dionysus, duality, divine Faith filled hearts ruling the mind Reigning, containing all that's sublime Fear fought and fouled; fumbled, forgotten with time Open your eyes and faith will be mine Souls wide open to all that's divine Fear j...
