I am that night which is full of darkness
I am that night which is full of darkness,
Neither the moon is my companion, nor the stars have any existence.
Every corner cries a story inside me,
But no one listens, everyone waits for the morning.
I have cold sobs in my lap,
Shadows of broken dreams.
People say I am scary,
But how do they know, how true I am.
Every...

You Are My Love
I trace the contours of your beautiful face
In stillness, I dream of each memory saved
As I lie by your side renewing my mind
I open a door to beauty and love
Lost in a dream in showering sun beams
I follow you down to the shore
Kneeling in praise each word I retrace
As I open a door to my...

Love at EightI waited and I waited just in case she’d been delayed
I stood there feeling foolish, though I acted undismayed
A movie and some popcorn might have won her pretty smile
And I was very keen and so I waited quite a while
Perhaps she didn’t like the fact I had a missing tooth
I’d heard another one would...

Man in WaitingIf these aren't the walls to hold us
Let me loose
If charm and features aren't in my company
A thought won't do
It wasn't me
Yet they carved out pieces of my flesh
to fit into
If it isn't you
Please make room
I have no heart to share
No bated breath to bare
Let him pass through
Give me no angst, no grief
Love what...

donttouchmemaybe you didn’t physically touch my skin,
but the evil in your eyes when you would look
in my direction was enough to make it crawl.
you may not have laid your fingertips on my
innocent body, but the thought of knowing i
was a room away was horrifying to my young brain.
maybe you didn’t breathe on my neck,...

PICKING AT SCABSPICKING AT SCABS
There’s a link between smart and dumb
Like just when things start to get better
As if a wound on the skin as it’s healing
Picking at the scab feels quite appealing
But is not following process to the letter
Such choices made are worse than some
It happened whilst fiddling with a knife
Now just stop digging if you’re...

Ravens and Lilies‘When you are not fed love on a silver spoon, you learn to lick it off knives.’ - Lauren Eden
lilies and ravens
dance together making mud puddles
thick as salve caked on deep wounds
stemming not the ooze
tinctures from droppers
bitter herbs labeled for survival
use only as directed
replenish nothing
rancid birthday cakes
gleeful candles form dancing shadows
glassy story-telling eyes
yearn desperately
gleaming steel...

Slave of our mindTo eat when hungry and sleep when sleepy,
at first sight sounds simple enough to do
but when swamped by thoughts, fearful and creepy,
we’re bemused by puzzles we need to sew,
so know not that peace graced on but a few.
Oh, to be a child again, free from strain,
frolicking carefree in the monsoon rain!...

Why the horse danceDo you remember,
The grand horse carousel?
Pirouetting upon their endless meridian,
O! How they dance delightfully, with out care.
I know you remember!
But all this poor old man can recall,
Are the coins infiltrating,
Pushed by small finger, and joyous smiles.
Then the lights overhead,
Followed by the grand gallop chomatique!
How I remember?
These stallions, they dance for wealth,
For life,
For aspiration,
For...

What kind of hateAriana Grande had many teenage fans
girls went to her concerts, in different lands
Then a bomb went off in Manchester killed 22
Revenge, ideology, a toxic stew
Girls liked to sing along with Taylor Swift
But in the alienated mind there was a rift
He stabbed little girls at a Swiftie themed class
Three of them died, there's a question we...

No MoreIn ashes of betrayal, we rise up,
As women of strength with fire in our eyes.
No longer in mans shadow, we claim our own light,
In a world where mens wrongs are finally set right.
You thought you could wander and stick your Dick
Into every pure heart, every...
