POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Chance
One last attempt
Push to give everything
Unpacifiable tenacity
I'll burn the world
then burn its ashes
To burn my feet to you
Mistakes were present
Lies are no stranger
I bleed red, i am human
I miss your skin,
the tales within
The tales told with your movement
A million words
were never enough
Touch can't be belittled
A try for all
For all i have
is tangled in your soul
Push to give everything
Unpacifiable tenacity
I'll burn the world
then burn its ashes
To burn my feet to you
Mistakes were present
Lies are no stranger
I bleed red, i am human
I miss your skin,
the tales within
The tales told with your movement
A million words
were never enough
Touch can't be belittled
A try for all
For all i have
is tangled in your soul

Home chains
The serenade of the seagulls
Grey drops that fall forever
Strong scents of juicing pine
that boisterously invade
The clamorous honking of geese
A dance of two sycamore leaves
as the north wind threatens a gale
Snow-capped giants rise cloud bound
Scattered stone shores repeatedly washed
Untouched stinging fields
from bramble to thistle
Intrepid scenes 'till vision expires
Turned my back for a chain more strong
I will not be missed, but miss i will
Farewell for now my thistled lands
Chained in heart and memory
Grey drops that fall forever
Strong scents of juicing pine
that boisterously invade
The clamorous honking of geese
A dance of two sycamore leaves
as the north wind threatens a gale
Snow-capped giants rise cloud bound
Scattered stone shores repeatedly washed
Untouched stinging fields
from bramble to thistle
Intrepid scenes 'till vision expires
Turned my back for a chain more strong
I will not be missed, but miss i will
Farewell for now my thistled lands
Chained in heart and memory

Grave days
Mirthless day
A lack of joy
Smile's astray
Solemn night
I dream of sleep
Wrong this right
Somber age
To burn this dark
Reserved rage
A lack of joy
Smile's astray
Solemn night
I dream of sleep
Wrong this right
Somber age
To burn this dark
Reserved rage

Empties
Valued wealth in measures
Of material and status
The shallow eyes blister
My skin repulsed to callous
The empties forage to fill
Scoured lands like starved wolves
Raped and drained dressed in pearls
As the soulless cloud engulfs
On two legs they slither and curl
The empties smile as they kill
A narrow minded greed
Creates shelter from worth
Cut them, they do bleed
A breed yet to unearth
The empties choke the will
Of material and status
The shallow eyes blister
My skin repulsed to callous
The empties forage to fill
Scoured lands like starved wolves
Raped and drained dressed in pearls
As the soulless cloud engulfs
On two legs they slither and curl
The empties smile as they kill
A narrow minded greed
Creates shelter from worth
Cut them, they do bleed
A breed yet to unearth
The empties choke the will

Envy of the fisherman
I sat to watch a fisherman
Rod cast off the boat
He had no unlawful plan
I wish i was a fisherman
The vastness of sea
The forgiving tides wash when can
I'm scared to be a fisherman
Freely isolated
I'd fish for land and face of man
I cannot be a fisherman
For i cannot swim
I know i sink, like dead men can
I frown upon the fisherman
And his careless air
I pay my way to the ferryman
I hope not to see you there
Rod cast off the boat
He had no unlawful plan
I wish i was a fisherman
The vastness of sea
The forgiving tides wash when can
I'm scared to be a fisherman
Freely isolated

For i cannot swim
I know i sink, like dead men can

And his careless air
I pay my way to the ferryman
I hope not to see you there

Ceaseless gaze
A brief gaze sores and delivers
Armies of splinters marching
Up my spine as it quivers
And the warning sirens sing
Seconds transform into days
Moments are stretched 'til they rip
Silence is weaved with the gaze
A duo hard to not to grip
Vision is honed, here to stay
The corners are drizzle and haze
Cannot tear my eyes away
For they are lost in a ceaseless gaze
Armies of splinters marching
Up my spine as it quivers
And the warning sirens sing
Seconds transform into days
Moments are stretched 'til they rip
Silence is weaved with the gaze
A duo hard to not to grip
Vision is honed, here to stay
The corners are drizzle and haze
Cannot tear my eyes away
For they are lost in a ceaseless gaze

Death's closet
The soul lives on,
the bluff is played sweet
Belief is now a duty
we mindlessly fulfil
Desperation searched, and found faith
To walk again
Reincarnation
To take flight and sore,
conquer the oceans
Fantasy blurred with deception
A heaven maybe,
or hell to endure
To be lost in a realm
as a wasted entity
Will the suprise take voids place?
For the righteous;
one of seven planes
The unrighteous;
seven of tormenting pain
Subtle bodies need no guides
There is no...

To fight a fire
Black flames had outshone perception
licking and digesting the bland, cold air.
The fire snorts and charges the walls,
thick black smoke arrives like cavalry.
No defence, no attack could work.
The only tactic is to run, to retreat.
Such ferocity is hard to match,
easily fueled, needs no encouragement.
Allied with oxygen, foe to water.
Lightning velocity destroys eagerly.
A battle that strikes panic in any man.
Your best defence is to run.. While you can.

Wanderer
I walked the cobbled, mudded path.
Destined without knowing.
I know not, and need not know,
to where i will be lead.
The path it knows, only too well,
where my steps will cease to step.
The day decieves with skies azure.
The blackbirds melody,
and pine to lure.
Certainty remains unclear,
direction not my choice.
I keep to the mudded, cobbled path,
and await the trial of fate.

Wait with hope
I sat in your old room
Ran my fingers along
your naked pillow
Happiness vacated
In the still oxygen
I hear you breathe and
forget to breathe myself
Erratic and aimless
I slump to my feet
and drag them
to your shirt draw
Take out a red
the colour of loss?
I smell your old smell
Blue heart beats faint
I blow a whisper
beyond this realm
To crease your eyes
and steal your smile
All that is left
is a clouded past
Memories engulfed
in a shade of misery
Engraved in my soul
by the mason of mortality ...

Eternity
O' tell me your secrets eternity
Is it true you have no end?
My rational mind can't please me
So, tell me your secrets eternity
O' tell me your secrets eternity
I'd trade my all to know
how long can forever be
So, tell me your secrets eternity
O' tell me your secrets eternity
If i carry this burden
I'll never be free
So, tell me your secrets eternity
Is it true you have no end?
My rational mind can't please me
So, tell me your secrets eternity
O' tell me your secrets eternity
I'd trade my all to know
how long can forever be
So, tell me your secrets eternity
O' tell me your secrets eternity
If i carry this burden
I'll never be free
So, tell me your secrets eternity
