Poet Introduction
I'm far from being the best poet, but every poem of mine was written from my heart. They're all precious to me, and I hope that you'll enjoy reading them.

I Write My Own Destiny
The midnight sun is out again
The earth below baths in her soft light
The wind brings echoes of a timeless melody
Ancestral music to my heart.
Each star has a story to tell in their gleaming light
A story is told for you, and a story is told for me
Nothing else needs to be said
But if you must, write your thoughts down.
Words unlock the gates of my reserved soul
If you’re patient enough, you can catch a glimpse
Of who I was, who I am, and who I’ll become
Do you dare to venture further?
I often delve within myself ...
The earth below baths in her soft light
The wind brings echoes of a timeless melody

Each star has a story to tell in their gleaming light

Of who I was, who I am, and who I’ll become

I Have A Dream
I have a dream
It’s more or less the same
As when I was a child
But had hardened in resolve after being bathed in endless pain.
It started on a whim
Just a spark in a blazing fire
I knew I wanted to help people
Yet I couldn’t quite pinpoint how to accomplish this desire.
Perhaps deep within our souls
There’s a hint of magic
Just waiting to be unleashed
And manage to stand out among the colourless pelagic.
The world will be my offering
There’s no limit to what I can do
In turn, the world has plenty to...

Two
I had a conversation with my weeping heart
It turns out that I was wrong from the very start
I can’t believe what has happened
I can’t accept that this is the end.
Of you and me
Of this fantasy
It didn’t work out but at least let me dream
Of the possibility of me and you.
What ever happened to 1+1=2.
I once thought that my mind was always right
Turns out that all of the facts were merely lies
When the world’s fast asleep, I lie out in the open
As I look up at the sky, I wonder why I’m so broken
How’d it...

Goodbye Sweetheart
Goodbye sweetheart it’s time to go,
Goodbye sweetheart it’s time to go;
I hate to leave you, but I really must say,
Goodbye sweetheart, goodbye.
Don’t cry sweetheart when you’re all alone,
Don’t stand outside you’ll catch a cold;
I hate to leave you, but I’ll see you someday,
Smile sweetheart, just smile.
One day sweetheart you’ll really know,
The very reason why I had to go;
I hate to leave you, but I just can’t stay,
Goodbye sweetheart, goodbye.
Goodbye sweetheart it’s time to go,
Goodbye sweetheart it’s time...
Goodbye sweetheart it’s time to go;
I hate to leave you, but I really must say,
Goodbye sweetheart, goodbye.
Don’t cry sweetheart when you’re all alone,
Don’t stand outside you’ll catch a cold;
I hate to leave you, but I’ll see you someday,
Smile sweetheart, just smile.

Goodbye sweetheart, goodbye.

Transformation
A snake spends its many lifetimes seeking meaningful transformation
But no matter how long it stares into the sky
It'll never taste the satisfaction
By becoming the dragon that was born to fly.
But no matter how long it stares into the sky
It'll never taste the satisfaction

Rose Stem
Making love is a special union,
Where body, mind and soul become one;
The first time is especially magical,
But that’s not always how it’s done.
-
Some abuse its bond-strengthening effect,
They dominate with their sexually driven minds;
And take away the purity of innocent souls,
Making them practically blind.
-
To the goodness that can come,
When the act is done with good intention;
It’s a shame to see so many,
Do it merely for attention.
-
There are those who are lucky,
To not have been violated;
Yet they...

Recipe for Happiness
Pretty much everybody is a top chef when it comes to preparing hate, anger, depression, and so many other unhealthy dishes. The ingredients used are just so darn rotten that the consumers themselves become bitter.
I’m startled whenever I see people ingest those dishes on a daily basis. How can they handle taking in all of those negative calories in such large amounts? It saddens me to see their abused bodies and souls being put through that unhealthy diet.
I used to follow that diet; it was what everyone ingested. It seemed far easier to simply eat that garbage instead...

Relief
With the sun’s last rays
My heart leaps to the sky
And your endearing praise
Fills me with a sigh…
-
Of relief, of repent
That I’m free from my sin’s rent
Your words, your caress; they heal my soul
And I took back my reins of control
-
With the moon’s reflection
My soul returns to the source
I’m filled with bountiful affection
And I start to cry…

In relief, in release
As I’m stitched back piece by piece
To reconnect with my true self
And the dark night of the soul can finally be placed back on the...

In Your Debt
My friend, you are a breath of fresh air
Amongst an ever-diluting pool of creativity
You bring light, innovation, and life
I cannot thank you enough for being a reliant harbor in the stormy waters
You are an agent of the forces of light
And you bring a divine gift to us clueless mortals
The radio plays the same-old tiring rhythms and beats
Yet your music, your creation, stirs the embers within my heart
A spark that I had thought would never reignite again
Unraveled the catalyst of my newly founded inspiration
Your gift gave me back my passion...

Echoes in the Water
Deafening silence is my only company
I vainly try to hear the whispers
This torture strains my fragile sanity
The sound of rushing water has me itching closer.
-
What happened to the echoes in the water?
They were my only comfort in this hell
I’m expected to take pride in being the moon’s daughter
Yet even Luna is a distant companion in this cell.
-
It’s getting harder to breathe; all the air just rushes out of me
My legs begin to feel like lead; I feel like they’ve been torn to shreds
I’m naked for the world to see; a harsh act to...

Ignite My Heart of Fire
I feel your breath on my skin
I hear your heart dance to a timeless rhythm
I long to discover the truth within
To see the beauty that has been kept hidden.
-
I desire…
-
I sense your spirit call out to me
I take in your essence so heavenly
I aspire to reach the divinity
To be embraced by the forces of infinity.
-
I yearn…
-
The stars, they shine above
A cosmic kiss so bright
My soul rekindles deep within me
The summer days are gone
The starlight’s radiance has dimmed
I’d give up my life to rest in...
