Premium Member All my life I have been music, a silent symphony floating through time
All my life I have been music, a silent symphony floating through time, not the kind of melody that encourages dancing under the starlight, but the kind of music that fills your soul when you're alone and tears fall, without knowing why, like an unseen spring carving its path through rocks. Few have listened, and even fewer stayed to...

Premium Member I Have Been
I have been A grain of sand A wisp of froth Above a wave and then gone. I have been A shark’s tooth, A piece of azure glass, The clapper of a bell, The bill of a falcon, A feather floating. I have been The sound of children, A nail in the barn, The snore of a pig. I have been sky, Day, even night And the...

Premium Member At thirty-eight, his story seemed to have already been written
At thirty-eight, his story seemed to have already been written, he sipped his coffee and recalled where he went wrong or maybe got it right, for he had grown tired of the insurance game, of small offices with glass walls, of clients who came and went like faceless, soulless shadows. He was weary of the lies told to his...

Premium Member Wings have been lost in the abyss of time, stumps of memories remain suspended on the horizon
Wings have been lost in the abyss of time, stumps of memories remain suspended on the horizon, shadows dancing before your wandering eyes, you cover them with your palm like a mute spell, you scream into the boundless silence, praying to an absent god, but the silence remains an echo-less abyss, no murmur returns and only the void...

Premium Member I have loved and been loved, floating on ivory wings of white and pure dreams
I have loved and been loved, floating on ivory wings of white and pure dreams, traveling through sapphire skies where scarlet ecstasy calls to me in secret, touching silver stars that shine like the hidden desires of the heart, feeling the silky, golden, and lilac joy enveloping my harlequin heart, melting under orange delights that whisper tales of longing, each...

Premium Member If it had been love, why didn't you whisper it when time still had breath
If it had been love, why didn't you whisper it when time still had breath, when it could still weave our moments into the fabric of eternity? I wandered unknowingly, not realizing I had been thrown into a silent race, where even my steps were muffled by hesitation, like an unfinished song. I was not swift, I was not...

Premium Member In the depths of silence, I have never been able to offer you much, have I, solitary traveler
In the depths of silence, I have never been able to offer you much, have I, solitary traveler, I cannot brew healing potions for the wounds and scars gathered like memories on your skin, I cannot forge mighty swords to chase away the demons that set your soul ablaze, I cannot weave shields against betrayals that touch you...

The World Has Been Cruel to You, Yet There Is Still Beauty and Meaning That Comes from You as Well
The wind has bruised your tender face, And winter wrote upon your brow— Yet in your eyes, I still can trace A fire the world could not put out. The stars have watched you weep alone, Their silver light a cold caress, But from your soul a song has grown That sorrow could not quite suppress. You move through thorns with quiet grace, The...

She’s Been Here Before
Once green and firm, she danced, on the boughs edge. Whirling and dipping, through the breezes, of changing seasons. She basked, in hot summer suns. Rejoicing in the adulation, heaped upon her, as she selfishly, provided shade, and shelter to all who sought it. Asking for nothing, needing no one. Autumn days, stroked her ego, into maturity. transforming her, into the envy of artists and poets, sages and prophets, wise...

Premium Member Mother, if I hadn't been your daughter
Mother, if I hadn't been your daughter, you would have run free like the wind, a dandelion flower dancing carefree, without the burden of tomorrow, without chains and labels, just you and a clear sky. Mother, if I hadn't been your daughter, you would have traveled on the train of tranquility, an endless journey just for you, without obligations...
