Upon Me

Upon me, a rose entertained by dreams
Built upon questions that burn with the wind
Upon me, a daffodil bearing gleams
Light that alone laminated my tint
Upon me, thoughts and wonders shall ignite...

Floundering

All that I should choose
All that had fell lose
I was astonished to see the truth
Behind thousands of lies pulled off by roots
Am I a puppet or am I some clay...

All By Myself

In the echoes of our screams
The world fades out
In the shatters and the shards, the tears spout
Curled in a corner of the room
Trying not to shout...

Reflection

Accepted but hated, my future unknown
What if my destiny is planned but not shown
In her eyes, a reflection of my own
You’re special, just like me, towards light to be blown
Accompanied by darkness when a candle burnt at stake...

What must be proven as the powerful spell
Of universe of thoughts of wishing wells

In the spotlight I shine
But behind this dream, behind the curtains
Lives me, trembling with agitation

Engaged far depth of fields through the lenses
Across the hallway of memories they grin
Pictures of glory to burn in trenches
Tip hours in glasses that blast within
Her life is endless with me I control...

Searching for a button on the panel
To turn the storms into a rainbow
Or maybe keep me in control

For Me

Beyond the surface, a thread that’s still trapped
Heavy was the pain that buried my trust
Hiding deep, fades amongst all that is wrapped
Dug through my past till love no longer last
Farther out I hid into the deceit...

The Light I Chase

In the darkness, through the faults
I open my eyes to the lies in this world
I touch the shadow, seeking for light
But God doesn’t bless, “unique” he says
I accept my eyes that lock up the mist...

Curled under the stars and in my sheets
On a pillow wet by blood that I weeped

So out he gushed, wasn’t black, wasn’t weak...

The Arrival of Autumn

In the chill of night, the shadow of autumn crept into my dreams.
I threw myself into an embrace with summer and set it aside through flight.
Listen, is that a crunch under my foot?
I shivered, the air was crisp with a soft and gentle scent of bloom and brisk.
Summer beamed at me and promised that autumn will bring...

Night Sky

When the smell of lavender spread, the night takes it flight
A blanket brushed with stars, so bold and bright
The moon, a silver coin in velvet’s fold
Secrets only the night can hold
The distant planets twinkle with a smile...

The Tears of Night

I slept with broken pieces of memory, and a blanket on top made by clouds.
Rain poured down along the hazel sky, on to people’s hopes and desires.
The bright green leaves glimmered in sunlight and shivered in the crisp.
All of a sudden, thunder ripped through the sky, tearing apart the bright face of the sun.
The ground remained no more of a dusty landscape...

Thirst unquenchable, for blood, sick for lives
I’m a pesticide, threat to all that survives
Shattered glass on demise, a hazard for all
But this is my destiny, my chosen role
Born to plunder, inveterate to kill...

In the crooked call of the silent night,
He crept alive into my fallen sights.
I grasped the blanket of leaves with delight,
His picture faded through the grim sunrise.
And wove a tale with golden arts of life...
