Can’t we just
wander around
and admire
the constellations,
wondering
of life
and writing
of heartbreak?
Is that
too much to ask for?

Travelers
He traveled along with the sun,
while she the moon,
but every once so often
an eclipse occurred
and blinded everyone observing.

Phoenix
From flames
to ashes
to dust
broken
now stronger.

Shards
There was
a quake
leaving me
shattered
with destruction
in the wake
and my heart shards
scattered.

Change
“We travel because we need to, because difference and distance are the secret tonic to creativity.
We meet souls rooted within, that intertwine with ours, who’s hearts understand you.
When we get home, home is still the same, but something in our minds has changed, and that changes everything.”

Lost
I was lost.
And you were gone eternal.
You blew the whistle.
Whilst i still play the game.
The sun turned grey.
And the moon lost its shimmer.
An abyss beckoned.
And the world ceased its glory.
That ruby rose glass.
Cracked.
And seeping elixir.
Flowed.
To the nothingness from which it came.
But restoring a void.
Of soliloquies.
Lettered drafts.
Tales.
Of conquests of love, and of war.
Oh how grand the gesture.
That fear consumes.
I was lost.
I am lost.
Now, in the conquests of love,
and of war.
And solace is what i have found.

Autumn Thoughts
My thoughts,
like autumn leaves,
lay scattered across the floor.
And my conscious,
bare branches,
stretching its shadow under the moonlight.

WORDS
Its just words they said,
forgetting the lives touched,
ruined,
the relationships forged,
broken,
the minds freed,
shackled.

Beat of Life
Searching for that which was stolen.
Only to realise,
that never
I
want it retrieved.
For my bosom,
an empty cage.
For once a beat of my life,
now
throbbing for another.

Cracks
The windows to her eyes were cracked,
yet so beautiful.
