bliss spasms manifest

Open all the windows and doors.

Make all the voices quiet, just like a mouse.

Maybe I missThe locked poem of my heart
When unbound by its chains
Will reveal it's frozen secrets
Thaw them out again

Eyes are the Windows to the SoulThey say eyes are the windows to the soul,
Hiding behind a facade taking its toll.
Saying you're fine when you're anything but,

Your words I once cherished, now haunt my choice.

With a loss so profound.
Yet within, there's false hope,
Things might turn around.
My past reveals unworthiness,

A Sad Side
A good man of great stature
A presence so strong
Head of a company, head of the family
The place he belonged
Now he sits in a care home
A toy cat cradled in his arms
Imprisoned in his...

SmileFalling out from the pit of his sleep,
Robin sits himself up, on the edge of his bed.
Dragging his body to the austere bathroom,
Facing the mirror, blankness just filling his head.
He looks at himself, so tanned...
