Drowning in this abyss,
I lay down flat after a long thrive.
I sink down deep, I strangely feel alive,
Always into taking those chances,
I admit I was a bit naïve.
The pain numbs all the high,
it numbs all the excite.
It’s intoxicating how alluring this game is,
I slip through the depths more,
Echoes of beeps going dryer;
As it messes with my wires,
My heart is at peace finally, Oh! this ambushed fire.
I feel serene,
I bet this was the only way out of the scene.
I did not run, I escaped
I have no regrets, after all I saw were facades.
The abyss is calm, unlike the tempest of my senses
If these orbs were to grant me a boon,
I’ll wish for conscious’ pulse to stop functioning soon.
Let me drift into nothingness,
I am not demoralized,
After all I always thought of life substantiality as useless.
Without being materialized,
I prefer to just exist 'dimensionless'.
Love is a kaleidoscope of colours
Dawn of spring after each winter season
A glass of champagne to uplift my spirit
Hand in hand
Love came to me like a warm fire
To greet the warmth with her kiss
Euphoric in joyous bliss
Twin flames ignited by a cosmic bond
Through amorous dreams
In a peaceful repose.

10. The Sound of Rain
From the dust of broken dreams I rise,
the cloud of gloom drifts away I find.
The new height of bliss, I'd never miss.
My crushed heart I hear silently cries,
but the bird in me will never die,
on brisk wings it’ll soar in seamless skies.
I was captive in your contrived cage,
tears drained pain inside from the closed eyes.
Rainbow hues I now see paint my mind.
I'd never miss the new height of bliss,
where euphoric cloud fleet freely flies.
Love is in the air ready to be embraced by you
Reach out and take it all in, you know what to do
For it to survive you must hold it close to your heart
Remember how you felt when you and that special person were apart
Love is the greatest gift you can bestow on someone
It costs you nothing and can lead to a whole lot of fun
When you hold that person of your dreams in your arms it produces a euphoric state
Its magic powers make you feel so happy, I am sure you can relate
Love can be shown in so many different and creative ways
You must without fail speak that enduring word every day
Valentine's day should never end, as true love is everywhere
Do everything in your power daily to show how much you care
Loving him is like a cul-de-sac,
No escape, his beauty blinds my sight,
A radiant glow, fierce as hell's fire,
He knows how to soothe my temper's might.
Euphoria engulfs me in his embrace,
Like nothing else, his touch sets me free,
But oh, the Italian cuisine he adores,
Night after night, it fails to please me.
Not objecting, simply not aligned with my palate's longing.
He tries to please me with love's sweet power,
In this cul-de-sac of love, I reside,
With unbridled joy, navigating the twists and turns.
Love can be so sweet, like a drop of nectar;
It fills the heart with hope and tenderness.
But love too often comes at an insidious cost:
A turbulent tide that disrupts our regress.
Vulnerability can unravel us easily;
Lovers are targets for malicious caress.
Passion runs rampant yet can rarely please us;
A double-edged sword wreaking emotional distress.
Euphoria subsides and hearts get to breaking,
Betrayal or ruin in an instant's redress.
Cupid's arrows inflict wounds not worth taking,
A balm for hurt exists not, nor does success.
Toxic entanglements, you mustn't ignore them--
Fraught with peril, as pitfalls beyond measure!
Risking it all? One should only abhor them;
Naught but pain, anxiety, and melancholy's pleasure.
God the pain,
The overwhelming pain,
All you do is drain,
Like your the water that is called rain,
Down down you go down the drain,
The never ending suffering like a nonstop rain,
Blades to the vain,
Only cause a temporary pain,
Watching the blood from your veins drain,
Feels like dancing in the rain,
The feeling so purely in vain,
Makes you want to dance in the rain,
Physical is nothing close to mental pain,
It’s like it’s your soul they drain,
Dragging it into the rain,
But this is the rain that causes pain,
The one that doesn’t puncture the vain,
The kind that leaves the untouched vein
that doesn’t let the painful blood drain,
The kind that keeps the pain,
Just let my blood drain,
Let me dance in the euphoric rain,
Let the blood run through my vain.
Chiseled bone fibre silences white noise water
Shiv splits through throat, jugular scissored
Flung spray fusillade's lain flat slaughter
Bluster bullseye stabs canvas concave
Albatross follow our sharp slipstream
Wind vane spins blur invisible
Dolphin pod adjacent symbol
Ludicrous becomes our lucid dream
Green glaze wake calms crazed waves
Plunge smashes panic, pindrop pools surface
Instinctive dive into icy effervescence
Jolts flailing heart buoyed purpose
Castaways tack to breeze's best advantage
Seahorse spawns, cloud coral hammock
Hull pointed toward demand
Relentless racing hour hand
Gathered globe gauges chances gigantic
Skippers puncture tides, shark agile voyage
20th February
Triumphant Felicity
In the waters of my life I heard
the voices of euphoric fish, but
where am I now?
A shield has broken;
the shell of my dreams is a levelling,
bringing me here to this world,
feared, dreaded so often.
So where are those who remind me
of a brand of sanity?
Why do I wait in this place so long
to see your very normal faces?
Why do we favoured companions
rarely meet, greet, like euphoric fish?
Yes, this trio of old, old friends.
(June 2022)
The ground beneath my feet,
Summer air so sweet,
Under a tree I escape the heat,
She sings euphoric melodies,
Sweeping through the trees.
She speaks her wisdom,
Until she is done.
Then the story unfolds before me,
She wants you to see
Just how much you mean to the world,
Not how much you can afford.
Seek to exist harmoniously,
And peace shall come effortlessly.
Every moment matters,
Save the best for after.
She told me that when I died,
I’d be living in the light,
Unafraid,
With you by my side.
Focusing on the void of no-thingness,
we remain as subject, without object,
self-aware thus in absolute stillness,
presence vaporised and our stance erect,
whereupon magnetic pulse we detect,
that combines with soma nectar within,
manifesting bliss bubbles on our skin,
teleporting us to boundless rapture,
in a realm where there is no noisy din;
nirvana, lower mind cannot capture.

Love is a mystery
Yet it can be so sweet
Love is your history
& the feeling of complete
Love can be euphoric
As well as foreign
Love should be exciting
Not telling stories of boring
Love is that hope
When you need Faith
Love is clean like soap
And forgives others like Grace
Love is a passion
That burns deep inside
Love sometimes passes
Although it keeps to remind
Love is not fascist
It breathes breath needed to revive
Love is a facet
Giving Life to those that died
Love is Empathic
Reliving to coincide
Love is a passage
To open the gates of Life
Love is so Lavish
And love is going to Survive
