My magical Chinese garden was small: tiny willows pagodas and mulberry trees emerging serenely from the mist pastelwise like Shangri-La over and over on the far side of an equally diminutive stream under a parchment sky. Slipping unnoticed over the footbridge at the top of the stairs I’d wait alone under the willow overhanging the bank ribbonfluttering silvergreen in the breeze where their wintry silences couldn’t reach me, hoping that maybe I’d meet another...

It would be good to escape from this place, to detach myself from heavy memories, To leave behind the shadows and stories that have intertwined over time, To lose myself on unseen paths, seeking the hidden mystery of the unknown, But staying has its own charm, a bittersweet taste of nostalgia, All those goddesses of the past, now living...

I know you wish for a place to be, hidden in the mist, silent as the sea. No fear, no hope, no questions asked. where the nights are not heavy and darkness don't last. could you trade this place For your favourite song? the throbbing of your heart as you run towards the dawn....

anxiety wrapped around my neck and hands struggling to free myself lying on my bed close to the edge i was struggling to keep my breathe in the velvet sheets, where cries turned into moans and with a single kiss, i was brought back from the hell swing of a pendulum speaks to me in its back and forth motion it prophesied to be prepared storm...

They say '"love is patient, love is kind" But what about the love that leaves bruises behind The love that whispers sweet nothings by day But turns into thunder when you disobey The love that says "I didn't mean it" Yet, the walls still remember every scream in it See, love ain't supposed to taste like fear Like holding your breath when...

The whispers in my mind take over The wind of my heart as my eyes close, In the world, I feel like a clover When I wish to feel like a rose, The blankets I lie in are my meadow, Drowsily carrying me to sleep All the thoughts seem to echo Pulling me in deep, I must escape this feeling That stays while I'm...

Quietly, waves from the sea wander ashore in a slow, perpetual motion of calm white foam washing the sand as it tumbles back into the sea leaving wet sand that turns pink from the rising sun as the horizon becomes a wide red ribbon of light Slowly, the waves' rhythm leads me on a peaceful journey that beckons a realm of...

We used to climb up the round metal fire escape at Columbus School This was Chariton Iowa, where no one saw or cared A summer morning was the perfect time to do this Before the sun heated the tube up, making it unbearable on our bare feet...

There was a time when poems flowed so easily, so freely when your beauty ignited my soul with passion when I was young, and the world was ours But now you're just a dream, only a faded memory And I'm just an old man with memories of Yesterday still fresh on his mind We had love deep and pure, a spiritual...

Trapped inside this dim-lit place Six-by-nine cell of inner space In a cage of ribs, locked away My heart did time, held at bay But then it hatched a plan, all on its own And slipped out through those bars of bone Escape Heartist, like Houdini in chains How the trick works, I cannot explain Like that fugitive from Alcatraz...

The pain is all I feel I cannot see I cannot move I cannot breathe It contorts as a dark entity trapped within me Writhing, screaming, clawing at my heart I cannot stop feeling I cannot ignore it I cannot turn it off A persistent, agonizing, longing refuses to leave Fissures of hopelessness brand my soul Wider. Longer. Deeper I cannot contain it I cannot cover it I cannot...

When a leprechaun tightly I caught, I was hoping for gold in a pot. But that trickster escaped. At my hands I just gaped. His wee britches were all that I got....
