Barren Blind
Meteors fall in wastelands forgotten. Poets, bards, sing. Taciturn, red, rotten. Silver at twilight, seeing stones kept clear. Seer, grind gear in the severe atmosphere. Barren lands are kept on rare landscapes clean. Winter, thy withering tendrils. Machine; When do we let white rage devour? Flower; Belladonna, tremendous thy power! Volcano, burst with the force of all space. Calderas choose by a need to...

Warmth of winter
I woke up one morning, To the barren of trees. The sky was blue, yet the silence screamed. What was it that made winters so dry? So cold, so blue, so lost of life. The snow burried dead beneath, The trees cried their leaves away, The birds hiding in fear from the rest, The world only led astray. Who was it who...

I am the tundra barren cold and numb A frozen wasteland where no light can reach Between these poles, my insatiate self-succumbs. In icy silence where no whimpers humb My thoughts like glaciers grind, erode, and breach I am the tundra, barren, cold, and numb. The Amazon within once vital thrumb Of life and hope now withers out of reach Between these poles...

this barren page, screaming, crying yelling through the winds, inviting me to begin again, always, to just begin again and again, tempting my pen tempting me to just begin, begin A G A I N this infertile soil, empty page – white as snow, innocent and fragile, waiting for my soul to pour out its dreams, its hope, its prayers words softly spoken, phrases sometimes...

Premium Member The Empty Room
Years delivered my mind, from the shadows left behind, Darkest calamity, sucking me into the tragedy, Feeling less like the dream I chased, like the darkness of disgrace. Soundless images roar through my soul, creating fear, so out of control, while my heart beats, rhythmic, like the colors of woe, lifeless stillness, in the empty room where I...

Written: May 26 2024 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dark, drizzling recesses that pulse and flow. A nebulous haze of nothingness, a sad show. With rasping tears of seabirds, in silent cries. They uncover comfort...

Premium Member The Barren Landscape
Where steel titans glower, casting endless shade, Rain's memory fades, and a parched land is displayed. Bangalore simmers, a cauldron in the sun, Life withers silent, its thirsty battle done. Borewells, like caverns, echo hollow groans, Whispers of water on parched and thirsty stones. The earth, a canvas fractured, pale and white, Cracks its silent scream beneath a sky of burning light. A...

Premium Member Letter To My Unborn
Though my heart was broken because I never knew you, my unborn, unknown, unfamiliar thought, the one that was much more than an inkling, yet never as familiar as the whisper of a hope. Though I longed for you in this life and never would feel your hand in my own, I would be blessed...

An Infant Leaf In a Barren Tree
A pair of dark crystals gaze in a sea of white innocence The bright light's a wisdom ablaze Unlike anything in the dark familiar Five laces of warmth enclose mine like red petals of rose And the silk of air flutters with life There is another heart to caress and guide Suddenly the ticking is loud Every moment takes time to feel proud For...

Till Earth Gets All Barren Like Moon
Not till the last forest’s flattened on earth, The last few drops drip down no more nor leak, Till crawling deserts daunt, the lands look bleak, The last river’s all bare from very birth, And last well on Earth's barren breast drys out, Man’s greed gets never gratified in full, Till stark nude earth’s...

Blood – rich whispers of crimson, Like flames melting the feelings beliefs alive, grief that spelled Out the word – I n f e r t i l e Infertility wrenched beauty from my life, Erasing the stars from the night, Darkening my heart – but I survived Yes, I remember I was young one day, Yearning, aching – praying Begging for one smile...

Premium Member O Barren One
O barren one, sing out, break forth in song! Prepare a room, no, add a wing to host the children that you’ve waited for so long! Your offspring will inhabit every coast! Lift your sweet face, o spurned, deserted, scorned! Let go your indiscretions of the past. For I, the Lord of Hosts, have you adorned, and tightly, with compassion, hold you...
