Unveiling My Heart
I sribble yet another one No hopes, you'll read Emotions, I'll weave A Heart filled with dread Enchanting is your smile I wish I were the reason I know I'm confusing Be honest with me, for a while Sick of the burden I carry Feelings, compressed Each verse is meant for you Desires, my heart pressed If not me, then someone else I'll still wish...

Premium Member If I could tell you what silent universe is born in my heart
If I could tell you what silent universe is born in my heart, The words would come when my tongue dances freely on the stage of desires, But in front of you, my control melts like snow under the touch of spring, Your presence steals my thoughts and turns them into butterflies of light. If you gave me a...

Premium Member The Wind Arrived Quietly
The wind arrived quietly, conservatively, meandering around my heart with soft words, playing with tendrils of my being with soft caresses, lulling my soul with gentle softness and light. Summer stretched and wove a ribbon through my emotions given freely and wantonly. Sucking the possibilities deep within to nurture a future of happy-scented days before...

Letters of The Heart
I wrote some letters a century ago before I became a patron of the show, there was an outstanding line of how the universe wraps its finger around mine and how the priest wrestle with the devil at the altar just for me to cross over. I was not born yet but some had...

Golden Heart
A golden heart painted in life, Who always does his best, thrice. With grace and kindness, he extends his hand, A heart so noble, in every way so grand. Like brushstrokes of warmth on a canvas so wide, He colors the world, with care as his stride. Not for perfection, nor for applause, But for the quiet joy the heart longs. His feelings...

I built a throne to hold my heart
Once on a day of ice and cold I set out to build my home a throne Dead cold pricked my skin And reminded me of its breath I sat upon a polished rock of guilt But that to wanted me dead Through more nights and days then I could count I built the best seat in man Not gold it was made...

Premium Member In the forest of memories, my heart arches
In the forest of memories, my heart arches, Like an old tree, with branches under departed dreams, I open my arms to the heavens, bird-like wings, Seeking light among the shadows of past days. When I crumble into the soil of silence, I know, Every fall is a forgotten lesson, a refrain of stubbornness, Not to engrave my fragility in bones, Like...

Premium Member Chalice of a Selfish Heart
Blinded by a carousel of fragmented glistening glass An image of self, pieced together by my own hands unworth, Each jagged shard cuts deep the chalice of a selfish heart 'Til blood, like words, curdle in the bowels of my own thoughts, A faceless demere dissects the contents I lavishly once did court. We are all unseen gladiators...

They never asked
I told my sister; "He's kind of... A mess" After my sixth anniversary dinner. My twin sister looked at me blankly and said: "The whole family knows he's kind of a mess". Now, I'm not saying I had JUST figured this out or anything; But sometimes I wish they'd said something. I know they probably did the right thing, so...

I Left A Note In Your Lunchbox, Try Not To Eat It
This weather's got my notebook sweating, so I apologize for the wrinkled pages. This note's intended for the lonely- for those people who don't have anyone to put cute little notes in their lunchboxes, or for those children whose parents send them to school hungry. I just wanted to remind you that: you're the greatest...
