Of What Is Love's Stake
...
Love walks away...
Day-in day-out on what heart wants,
Leading astray...
What heart needs, hurting what lust flaunts
Against heart's will;
Tomorrow shall find out the best,
Lust don't run...

Survival Mode
...I broke away not so long ago,
But there are things I want you to know.
I survived, yes, but I’m not yet healed—
A healthy life still unrevealed.
I wake each day often with a start,
Worry and w...

Birthday eve
...Last night, eve of my birthday.
Planned to say proper goodbye, not only to him,
But also my last 21+ evening.
Went to his place after night fall,
Strolled up and down along the front gate.

To The Common People

average Joannas & Joes
who give their all, day in day out,
but who most will never know

The Mystery of the Bag of Bones
...A bag of bones tucked in the trees,
Nestled against the fence,
Camouflaged by branches and leaves,
Heavy with the weight of death.
It tells a story of mystery,
No longer here in this world, but ...

Bereft
...
In a roaring ocean of grief, she plunged in.
A widow, she's a hodgepodge of emotions;
Caged all alone in melancholy's dungeon.
Day in, day out she's going through the moti...

Demons I Fight
...YOU LEFT ME WITH DEMONS
I FIGHT EVERYDAY
PAINS I CANNOT SHARE
SCARS IN PLACES UNSEEN
YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE MY PROTECTOR
BUT YOU TORTURED AND TORMENTED ME
YOU MAIMED ME
LEAVING ME WITH DEMONS...

day in day out
we float on open waters
beneath tranquil blue skies

until our voyage comes to a halt

Brainwaves On the Plate
...I eat them as if l am possessed,
I ravage them one by one intelligently,
Chewing carefully but mercilessly,
Orgh, they taste sweet, nice and crunchy,
Better than loose biscuits from market stalls...
