that you've built a dangerous circle

the moon shines through the window.
There’s a sound of feet sliding
through the hallway softly gliding.

something so sweet, heaven sent.
As she sings, I hear the...

To reside among nature, the purest of goals,

Like a poetI swim, and I swam,
I play with words,
like a poet
therefore, I am.
A float in the space
of infinite vocabulary.
Master of my imagination,
enjoying the realization
of my mental recreation.
Feeling satisfied and pleased
with the pleasure of spilling ink....

If Only You Knew
If only you knew
the secrets locked
in my heart.

A symphony of love~
you hold the key,
if only you...

Summer LossEyes gaze over lines,
heart buckles under the pressure.
A lonely ride,
it's been pronounced,
I've lost everything.
Tiny violins between their ears,
large trumpets in mine.
A wake-up call?
Which part of me has gone,
for I no longer recognize.
Change of...
