Premium Member In the depths of my soul, a question blooms like a flower of light in the night
In the depths of my soul, a question blooms like a flower of light in the night, I wonder whether to release the reins and reveal what grows in my silence. I pretend not to feel this calling, like a secret tide touching my shores, But for a long time, it has danced through my veins like a...

Craving the burn you bring into my veins; no...

Some gates are closed, others are open I passed them all I lived inside The postcard views where as a postman I brought your package every night Check your emails if there’s a new Stifting a yawn you find the one In haste you almost read it through Replying with a glint of sun Meanwhile the coffee smells of morning You open up...
