ENOUGH
(visual poem)
One last tear
Leaves her eyelash
Finds her way across her cheek
When it touches the ground
Scatters into numerous pieces
She finally detached herself
After all these years
One last tear
Leaves her eyelash
Finds her way across her cheek
When it touches the ground
Scatters into numerous pieces
She finally detached herself
After all these years

THE PUPPET DOCTOR
Look at you, standing there
Bare feet in your own water
Your arms try so hard to hide
The red welts all over your body
Release yourself from your past
Open up and allow yourself
to concede me in your heart
I'll kiss the sins from your eyes
Lick the pain out of your wounds
Come here and close your eyes
Let me kiss it all away
Bare feet in your own water
Your arms try so hard to hide
The red welts all over your body
Release yourself from your past
Open up and allow yourself
to concede me in your heart
I'll kiss the sins from your eyes
Lick the pain out of your wounds
Come here and close your eyes
Let me kiss it all away

EMPTY SHELL
(visual poem)
Cover without a title
The pages on the inside
Also empty
Not blanc
But pointless

THE NIGHT
(visual poem)
Shadows don't follow here
Dissolve with the twilight
In complete darkness
Senses take over
Silent breeding ground
For a roaming spirit
Shadows don't follow here
Dissolve with the twilight
In complete darkness
Senses take over
Silent breeding ground
For a roaming spirit

TRAVEL INFORMATION
I wonder
Should I find comfort or despair?
Realizing that no matter how I strive
I will never reach my horizon
Should I find comfort or despair?
Realizing that no matter how I strive
I will never reach my horizon

MANKIND
(visual poem)
In humbleness
I prevail
Showing every failure
As humanly possible
Imperfectly aware
In blind rage
That only God
Forgives

In blind rage

LONELINESS
(visual poem)
Another morning
Another mirror stare
A hollow face
As if looking into an abyss
Her mind
At the edge of that cliff
Where cold wind blows holes
In the tears of her pale dress
Another morning
Another mirror stare
A hollow face
As if looking into an abyss
Her mind
At the edge of that cliff
Where cold wind blows holes
In the tears of her pale dress

CHOCOLAT
(visual poem)
Image by anonyMuse
Slowly unwrapped
The smoothness
Of your skin
Carefully exposed
Warm lips taste
You melt
And so does the mind
By the touch of my tongue
Seductive flavors
My favorite
Pure, dark and round
With a trace of chili

BROKEN HALO
(visual poem)
Angel heart
Fallen by mistake
Flames left a scent
And the stain won’t fade
Will time manage
Make her fly again
She needs those wings
To purify

And the stain won’t fade
Will time manage
Make her fly again
She needs those wings

TWO HOUSES
Small lady
In a sometimes too big a world
Unaware
Of her significance
She makes a difference
She lives in two houses
This fragile lady
One made of concrete
And the other
With a little garden
There
She blossoms
In a sometimes too big a world
Unaware
Of her significance
She makes a difference
She lives in two houses
This fragile lady
One made of concrete
And the other
With a little garden
There
She blossoms

Heels and half full glasses downstairs
Clothes torn or left behind
Your body all around me
So perfectly soothes what’s inside
Make your passion grow, please
Can feel it flow along my thighs
Your breath thickens,
Mouth half open, eyes closed
No, don’t ask me
Refuse to close mine
I can feel you
Taste you
Let it come
All in my mind
Clothes torn or left behind
Your body all around me
So perfectly soothes what’s inside
Make your passion grow, please
Can feel it flow along my thighs
Your breath thickens,
Mouth half open, eyes closed
No, don’t ask me
Refuse to close mine
I can feel you
Taste you
Let it come
All in my mind
