Premium Member Child of the stars, my voice carries you through the cosmic darkness
Child of the stars, my voice carries you through the cosmic darkness, We speak of sparkling children, burned by the golden light of ambitions, Childhoods scattered among book pages, too wise, too bright, Stars of the neighborhood, shining like gods among mortals, They make you feel divinity flowing through your veins like a river of light, But tell me, do...

Among Shadows
In a world where whispers strike like stones, Where unseen eyes cast chilling tones, Where silent shadows weave their thread, The Lord walks close beside my tread. When hearts grow cold and hands withhold, And greed’s sharp edge is bright and bold, A hidden grace begins to rise, A light unseen beneath dark skies. Rivers of words like secrets flow, Ominous winds begin to...

It seems my life is spiraling Spinning so far out of control I feel as though I'm falling Deeper and deeper into a hole All around me is this darkness The drowns out all the hope So why am I looking for a way That I may be able to cope I'm lost and alone...

melancholic mood of angst sinks deep in sands of ennui noose of loneliness tightens we dread the looming abyss yet a light within us brightens darkness a web spun by ego the light reflection of our Self we know we’re not body-mind nonchalance banishes fears that seek to grip us in its bind viewing life as a lucid dream somewhat like a simulation wherein we...

Rain and Snake
I crawl through darkness — small, scared, biting at shadows to keep my life, to keep my fear away. I hold my breath, keep still, hiding trembling beneath the strike, trying not to break, trying not to pour my heart out. Everyone sees the fight — the flash of scales, the flicker of anger — but no one sees the fear that claws beneath the surface, the quiet battle I...

Premium Member From darkness to light
Lost in clouds of dark fears, mirrored by lust, we were encircled by demons we conjured, which in mists of forgetting, became the cross we now carry, the heavy baggage of attachments, weighing heavily on our bleeding heart. Help was close at hand inked in hues of love, prompting consciousness to learn by touch, melding head with heart in silence, that thus dissolving ego, we recognise our Self, as God’s...

Eyes
Bright orbs that shimmer, secrets yet untold, They pierce the dark and trace the fading light. Through love and loss, their silent stories hold, A world within each gaze—so soft, so bright. They search the hearts once open, now concealed, Reflecting dreams that linger, lost in fire. Some truths they guard, while others are revealed, Mirrors of passion, sorrow, and desire. They cast...

Deceptive darkness
It goes unnoticed, just beneath the skin coursing now throughout. stalking just outside of what's real the battle of flesh and steel. Moon and earth locked in a cold embrace un able to look away. casualties now of an ancient love, its hidden within reflections. Deception is her only way to burn, reflecting light from...

Premium Member When you unravel in the darkness, you learn how deep the silence of the world sinks
When you unravel in the darkness, you learn how deep the silence of the world sinks, not even those for whom you would bleed will carve your name into their silence, they will scroll through dreams, sleep under indifferent skies, smile like shadows, while you try to breathe through the pain wrapping your soul like a veil. For when...
