Last breath
I close my eyes, Be still my heart, I’m not ready to be apart, Beating deep, A saddened heart, Nobody said it would be this hard, Pain runs deep, Flowing in these veins of mine, Forever wouldn’t have been enough time, Tears flow, One at a time, This much hurt should be a crime, Now I stand alone, The sun brings a new dawn, A new day...

My Breath
My Breath Each time I inhale, I feel God's touch even in sorrow. I know I'm not an angel, But in spirit, God gave me a halo. I don't need fancy words to pray — Just the depth of breath I take. He listens in silence, Even when I break. Storms at sea, drowning the fire in me, Yet in my breath...

Twilight Whispers
Soft fade, Breath, shadow, echo— Silent goodbye lingers, Whispers drift through twilight air— Goodbye. _____________________________________________________ Author’s Note: Twilight Whispers captures the soft, vanishing edges of farewell as day dissolves into night. In this quiet threshold, fading breaths and distant echoes drift through the dusk—subtle, haunting, and intangible. The poem reflects on the fragile nature of parting, where goodbyes are felt more than...

While We Metamorphose
My voice broke on the edge of breath. We stripped the bark from our ribs like trees to find no center. Blood is a language we forgot in churches. I held your absence like a flame burning under my tongue, while skin remembers the names we never spoke. I was becoming not better just closer to the fracture before the old name. And you fell into me like a glyph not carved. We did not rise we undressed....

Premium Member BREATH-
Breath He had a layer of skin That's wide open He was suffering as he walked He was buffering Carelessly as a stride sought He'll put his heart up while suffering Why has it inhaled an exhaled Lung keeps the flow Who would know And he walked through the door Through the passageway he saw His...

Gaia’s Last Breath
We were given one garden, One womb spun in stardust and sea foam, But we — children of steel and smoke — Turned it into a battlefield of greed. The trees whispered secrets of balance, But we silenced them with chainsaws. The rivers wept in silver tones, Now they gag on plastic and oil. Oceans rise not in wrath — But in sorrow. Mountains crumble...
