As the world tends to go around I look up at the sky, from the ground Can't shake this feeling of how blue it can be So, I ask myself why has God chosen me Don't get me wrong it a beautiful thing To be chosen by the creator like an angel with wings Then, out of the light comes the...

6th Death Anniversary at the grave
2025.4.16 Today, it is my late friend AP's 6th death anniversary. This morning, I visited him And brought with me not only the usual, But three more new items A popular book "The Art of Happiness", A new published "The Holly book of the Foreskin" And a frame of my embroidery work, Consisted of a poem of farewell best wishes, The song "La Paloma"....

Paris, the tiny star
In a world too big for one so small, You walked with pride, stood ten feet tall. A heart of gold in a dainty frame, Paris, sweet pup, we still say your name. Your paws once tapped across the floor, A rhythm we won’t hear anymore. But echoes linger in every room, A light that cuts through even gloom. Wrapped in bows or...

Even When You're Near
"Even When You're Near" I saw you yesterday. You’re not far. Maybe five minutes, a handful of quiet streets. But I miss you. Not because you’re gone, you’re not. It’s just that the world feels softer when you’re in it, next to me, not just in thought. The couch feels bigger....

Melancholia
It’s a heartbroken person Permanently sad The dark thoughts worsen They’ll drive you mad It’s a million different colors They blend together as one You can’t explain to the others So you give up and run It’s nowhere and everywhere You can’t ever break free The world you saw once was rare Now you’re waiting for the right time to flee It’s complex and never ending Leaving...

Premium Member The Heart
A gaping wound pierces my heart in the shape of my be- loved. Someday it will scab over. Someday, far, far in the future, it will turn into scar tissue. I will rub it and it will be soft and smooth and comforting. It will be with me, in the shape of my love, for as long as I live....

Premium Member You Laughed Your Head Back
In memory that wouldn’t get upgrades You stay, and you’ll remain there till I go One day wasn’t circled on your calendar of dates Now empty is the room we used to know The August Macke painting on the wall Your table, stuffed with papers, vapes, remotes And signs you left of missed video calls Remain in memory, that in its turn,...

Letters to Isabel
My dear Isabel, The days have become shorter, the chill bites the air and as I'm walking back through the apple trees, I think of that time the curve of your hip leaned against the cinnamon bark and with your book held so close, I felt a pang of envy. --------- Dearest Isabel, In a few days I leave...

Ode to Dad
I wish your heart had not been broken, your spirit crushed, so much unspoken. One day, I’ll walk again by your side. We’ll amble through the countryside. To watch the fish jump in the stream. To hear the wind whisper through the trees. As the cuckoo announces the start of spring. I know that sound will make your heart sing. And...

Premium Member The Fractured Clock
The clock face glares, a mocking, sterile white, Each tick seemed like a hammer striking a blow upon my soul. If I could rewind, erase the darkened night, And make our fractured story whole, I'd turn back time, erasing all the bitter stings, The careless words, the thoughtless, and the cruel neglect. I'd learn to value the happiness that you bring...

Flourish and Forshaken
Standing on a bridge, gazing at a tree, Admiring its beauty, a soft smile forming on my lips. The red flowers bloom like delicate whispers, The only attire the tree wears, as its leaves have long since faded. But as time flows, the flowers, too, will bid farewell, Leaving the tree bare, unseen, forgotten. No one will stop to admire it...

A Grandmother's Eid
The sun rose gently, soft and warm, But the house feels quiet, missing her charm. Eid mornings filled with light and grace, Now hold echoes of her smiling face. She'd sit by the door, hands soft and old, A shawl wrapped tight against the cold. Her eyes would shine with joy anew, As we lined up, eager for what we knew. A crisp...
