POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
"I will not die, it's the world that will end." - Unknown
To You
To live until death
To die until forgotten
To be until not being
To see until blind
To change until stasis
To believe until doubt
To feel until numb
To rise until fall
To speak until mute
To face until air
To fly until no wings
To prove until nothing
To fight until justice
To think until no thought
To live until death
To die until forgotten.
To die until forgotten
To be until not being
To see until blind
To change until stasis
To believe until doubt
To feel until numb
To rise until fall
To speak until mute
To face until air
To fly until no wings
To prove until nothing
To fight until justice
To think until no thought
To live until death
To die until forgotten.

The Aftermath
People running, screaming, gunshot echoes through the broken city
Smoke filled up the clouds, looking like a sad grey
with the city gone cold, the warmth taken by the forced agony
she looked through the window, all that was happening
not believing what she is seeing, was once her city
her parents hid her, not for the soldiers to find her
sacrificed themselves, to safe their only daughter
she saw them kneeling down on the ground
her father looked up, to see her once more from a distance
just then the soldier pulled the trigger and he laid on the...

They
Darkness I see
fog clogged, complete
truth never win
unfair the world has been
and still change
is a dream
torched the myth; peace
stasis in motion
roaming in circles
not allowed outside their box
bound
to their rules
accepting
clueless
slave to them
yes men, they win
not even the same competition
life unfair
live or death
they don't care
good ones' or bad
it's the same for them
as long
as
they're alive
free flying
looking down
smiling
not giving a shit
destroying...

Look Up At Nature's Paintings
when I come and see at the moment the sun bows down at the end of his play
when the curtains close by the mountains
his stretched hands going slowly as he dims down
not to go quickly
the blue sky, the clouds throw roses at his feet
to let him know they loved every second of it
his hands slips slowly between their fingertips
the mountains fade from a distance joining the background, gray
the sky changes colors, gets invaded by darkness
out of the darkness come distant relatives
twinkling in the sky, it is showered by them
but one...

Karma
He wanted to forget the past but it comes back to haunt him
they let go of what happened but their brains lets them relive him
She doesn't want to see his ghost but he keeps her in his prison
Light dwindling above their halo they see it but can't reach it and let this go
She looks at him and he looks at you your souls touch and he sees through
you pretend you see him too not to let go of this enigma you fell in to
You never thought this would happen cause right now it has stricken blue
drifting in this timeless aridity you could have dodged the bullet by...

Illusion
The mirror Is a liar telling you you don't look daper
If you don't put something on to make yourself feel better
The inner you gets tricked it becomes a follower
Of the superficial layer which is facing the mirror
You think the mirror is your friend and your enemy
But the truth is your confidence is your friend and your enemy is your insecurity
So the mirror is the shadow not the light
When you know that you will be bright
To know what you look like and who you are at sight
Not to get confused when you see your reflection and gasp
As If...

Her Boyfriend
We are falling apart. We try to fix it, we come back again but to fall further apart. We know the problem but to afraid to admit it because if we did, we won't even have each other to fall back on to. We are seeing the truth coming, coming to haunt us. And we sit here waiting trying to avoid the consequence. The day, the moment that we dread is coming closer and we can feel it in our heart like an explosion. We know we can fix it but it's too selfish of us to admit it, we know we can change it but thought of others happiness first.
We sit here doing nothing but feel our heart shade...

Impossible Is Nothing
plans never go to plan
you jot it down and feel confident of what you wrote
the idea feels like you have already accomplished it
feeling so proud that you "did it"
but as minutes acummilate and turn to hours and hours become days
you say to your self I have got tommorow, it's okay
and just procrastinate
but before you know it, your time is over
one month ago you were a naive achiever
one month ago you promised yourself you won't make the same mistake
redeem your past and relax
but but but, what ifs, what coulds, filled up your mind ...

Lost And Empty
A hollow sound envading
my gut is trembling
crying myself to sleep to forget
the small demons that wisper in my head
that possess me when I awake
depression because of the pitch black idea
that I don't know what I want to do with my life
the path I have chosen now doesn't feel right
I'm trying to figure out how to love what I'm doing
going to work in that profession
but it's stressful
to study something you are not interested in
i should get a hobby to not think of the path I had to choose
is a mistake
I just have to suck it up...

It's tough
Rejected silenced proclaimed negligence
in to the abyss thrown blinded muted
ghostly excuses invisible remarks
inked in your blood no oxygen to belong to
envious of the shadows with no light
avid inside havoc masking to collide
to solution hiding your truth...connection.

A New Feel
I wish this pillow was your chest these sheets your hands
holding me close and comforting me till the end
you let me in, I looked around feeding me with your space and sound
overflowing with new feelings on how real life gets...and we haven't really kissed yet
I close my eyes to go to sleep but I see your face and start writing this
Bury my head under my pillow to make you go away but I can't let you go
thinking of you leaves me gushing awakening my heart to start beating
the feeling that started when you mixed your heart with mine
don't ever want it to end...

Checkmate
Inside every nerve alive tingling giving her a smile
but her tears build up she is underherwater slides on the side of her cheeks
her reality exploding sadness comes over her laughing
as she is trapped in a maze with no exit
suffocating as the bushes start closing
she looked up for help but no answer replied
then she looked down to the ground and surrendered.
