The feat of you.

Come back sweet love that bore no scars.
Come back belief safe in your jar.
Come back dear faith in all your glory.
Come back my best wish and tell your story.
Come back sweet hand that sat in mine.
Come back thoughts of innocence and devine.

Something like that.

You were an inspiration.
Something like that.
You were the greatest.
Something like that.
You were lovely.
Something like that.
You were good after all.
Something like that.
You beat the winner.
Something like that.
You were so perfect.

The shackles of life

The shackles hold me tight,
That I cannot fight.
The shackles gives me limitations,
To my destination.

I have the capability,
But do not have the opportunity.
How do I get off this shackle?
Life is full of...

2,000 Years From Now - A World without Humans - Short Story

No more, the humans were no more. Nature thrived without them. Paths became forests and grasslands. Animals became free to multiply and yet some were lost on the way. Tigers and rhinos had become extinct. Some birds had been shot down. Humans had...

Written Gray Arrays

Regaining tempered grayscaled virtue
Subtle hints of majestic blueish hues evade
Once upon these Icelandic pupils of wonder
Fearless waves of emotional ties were made.

Behind tall, dark pillars of mossy bark
Sturdy oxygenated wooden stumps...

WHICH IS THE DREAM?

WHICH IS THE DREAM?

Tell me why ...
….a dream is just a dream..
….if God speaks…
…In a still small voice?

Rather is it not…
… The booming…
…Shouting, ruckus..
…Truly the dream?

I heard God…
…Speak in the sunset…
…Gentle over...

I wish for an isolated life.

I wish for an isolated life.

I can't suppress my rebellious mind
when it is tormented by din and bustle of the city.
As I can't find here my own entity.

My heart sings for an isolated place
Where I'll shelter in a den
in a lush green glen....

Sparing & salvation

A trillion turmoil reassured.
Feels like the first thought was a tour.
Everything you wanted to know adored.
Why the way is a journey moured,
and the path to the heart already assigned.
Yet the challenge of greatness shared.
I know his mercy...

Planet contained, a short story.

Do you care about big balls?
Life.
Do you care if it falls?
Planet.
Does it keep you standing tall?

She slit her wrist with a canine tooth and like ash her skin cells glistened in the sun and she blew at the hole imagining them flying into...

Your Velvet Love

Your Velvet Love

Your velvet love of delicate softness
Breathes beneath my hand
As I caress its subtle scenery
Vines of lightning and quiet thunder
Frame a flower blooming
With salty dew and sweet cream
Already bathing me with desire
Your...

The discoverers goodbye kiss

I wake John and Layla early
in the hopes I beat the sun.
I quickly garner bread and cheese
for change has already begun.

I place the table perfectly
in dawn's growing light.
I smile in its warmth,
As I plead for more night.

My hands...

Gasoline

Gasoline,
My favorite drink.

Gasoline,
In my veins.

Start to bleed,
over the flames.

Take them in,
A welcomed end.

Misery bound,
Sights on the ground.

Vapor breath,
Sweetened death.

And I know,
I got no place else to go.
