Heart Rhythms
Who am I? I'm that star in the sky that remains when all the other stars have run away I'm the last raindrop that dances on the rooftop at the end of a stormy day I'm that leaf that clings to the tree when the other leaves have accepted their fate I'm the last second of that minute of that hour that urges the...

Premium Member In a universe of glass and steel, where fluorescent light dances on cold walls
In a universe of glass and steel, where fluorescent light dances on cold walls, We have lost ourselves, men of the age, caught in the trap of a paper dream, Where the tie becomes a noose, suffocating any impulse of freedom, And each day is an absurd play, performed under the gaze of relentless shadows. Here, in the cages...

Premium Member In a secret corner of the mind, where silence dances with shadows
In a secret corner of the mind, where silence dances with shadows, I lose myself in the simplicity of a moment that asks for nothing, just to be, letting dreams unravel like autumn leaves in a gentle breeze, without fear of absence, without the desire to arrive anywhere, for in the absence of desire, a vast field of freedom...

Premium Member In the penumbra of life, a choir of lost souls dances
In the penumbra of life, a choir of lost souls dances, Their ephemeral steps leave traces on the sands of passing time, Their dreams, like night butterflies, crash into closed windows, While the sea of existence churns under the moon, untouched by thoughts. The scent of regret floats in the air, heavy with unfulfilled promises, Their lives, like plastic flowers,...

Premium Member In the room where light dances through the curtains like a timid dream
In the room where light dances through the curtains like a timid dream, I wonder if friendships are not just dusty treasures on the shelves of forgetfulness, once shining like stars on a never-ending night, now just silent props in a theater abandoned by time. Beloved faces melt into the shadows of memories, old photographs in an album we no...

DANCES ARE SQUARE
DANCES ARE SQUARE There are some dances where different people meet Exchanging partners enhances the social opportunity When one glances at another, it makes it all complete Whether old-fashioned such as the cotillion or quadrille There’s only one in a million who dances with impunity As these days, perhaps a civilian or maybe military still Sword and morris dancing are old and...

Premium Member In the depths of self, a shadow dances on the edge of my consciousness
In the depths of self, a shadow dances on the edge of my consciousness, Whispering promises of power and glory, an unrecognized god in demonic garb, I feel it pulsing in my veins, like an underground river of hot lava, But I push it back, fearful of its unknown force and the change it would bring. My thoughts pour...
