Cold but SunnyI felt unwelcome in our home,
a crowded place where I was alone.
So, I went out into the cold,
wandering out to take a look,
and settling on a stony crook
in the pathway of a brook
where clear water...

Beneath My FeetThe ground crunches beneath my feet
A happy dog
A passing tree
Breezes that do their best
To clear away the filth
I walk and I walk and yet
Here I am
Always here
Always me
It takes more than a river
To cleanse...

Stir CrazyOne flew over the cuckoo's nest,
No need to wear my Sunday best.
As I lie here staring at the ceiling,
Devoid of any sense of feeling.
I feel I'm not in one's right mind!
These thoughts so deep are...

Exit Stage RightSomeone slowly makes a move
Somewhere in the night
A light switch, a lighter
Some razor blade laughter
Making someone alright
For an hour or maybe two
Any more, you’re getting greedy
Drive her home in the morning
Any more, you’re getting...

Left Somewhere Between Love and LonelinessIn twilight's hollow, where shadows play,
I find myself lost, in a heart's gray day.
A soul once afire, with love's pure flame,
Now flickers faintly, in loneliness's cold frame.
In secret gardens, where memories reside,
Our laughter echoes, a...

In FocusIn the darkroom of my mind, your photo still develops
A snapshot of you sears my brain
Fighting so hard to let it go
The artist within me cannot fathom
the idea of letting go of a muse so...

When Loneliness Strikes InWhen longing strike in
You have no voice that comes out
Just passing through the wind
I entrust it the way it is
Finally the rain accompanied
By a bit of wind that add the chilling
Which makes my longing more...

Hunger StrikesHunger overcomes
My longing for you
It makes me weak
I have no power
No strength to speak
No appetite to take
Makes my eyes blurred
I don't like to move
I like only to rest
Love only to see the city lights....

PullI dim with the dark.
I spiral with the world.
I look up to see you: Bright and still.
I shiver in the cold.
I crack at the pressure.
My blurry eyes gaze: Warm and solid.
Desolate contusions,
Mend me of my...

AloneToo painful to hope
And foolish to dream
Turn away from it all
That's easier it seems
Forget about heart
Abandon the soul
Lead with the head
Forge a new goal
To shut out the hope
Protect from the pain
Rewrite the dreams
The rules of...

On Seasickness
A churning within gill and fin so low
with my tongue, she's tasted the aqua bowl
the dancing inside no place ever goes —
How the brig's see through from stem cells under;
what little chains us to this...

Cathedral Of LamentationColors once blossomed radiantly
Filling the canvas with life and hope
Brightening even the darkest room
With love and prosperity
The ceiling once stood tall and proud
Even in the face of the worst storms
The walls were a profound comfort

Indigenous PassionsUnreciprocated passion
is not yet resonant compassion
Unreturned love
feels dissonantly lonely
Failure to cooperatively thrive
Longing for health giving
mindful exotic
double-binding
cobinary relationship
Strong wealth receiving
resiliently embodied
erotic co-elationship....
