Every Girl's Dream
That girl splatters her faiths in colors of adoration,
Adoration of spineless whispers carried by heavens beyond,
Beyond the biosphere where her sentiments goad to creek,
Creek tender desires into every reverie.
Reverie curtains her realm in silk and gold,
Gold resembling the narratives my girl’s yet to articulate,
Articulate by an expression that is so tender and genuine,
Genuine as the

LIFE MISERY
Trouble created by
People
Solve by
People
Diseases created by
People
Cured by
People
Then they become boastful.
Know what
You're made for
So; you don't
Settle for
What you're prey to or for.
Every breath is a blessing
Every air lesson
As you inhale and exhale
You realize the value of breath
If you don't know
What you were made for
You'll settle and

In the depths of every soul lies a secret story
In the depths of every soul lies a secret story,
A place where sins and desires slowly weave a tale,
We are travelers through shadows, bearing unknown guilt,
In the silence of the night, memories become unseen wings.
Every heart carries a secret, an unspoken crime,
A thought born from the desire to be free and loved,
Beneath the mask of

Every moment counts
along life's journey
simple joys are the gems
to be stockpiled and amassed
opportunities are simply
bits of freedom to blossom
into time well savoured

Does the Universe Retain All the Knowledge of Every Civilization That Ever Existed
In the black throat of space, words spiral,
Charred syllables drifting like moths to no flame.
Every book, every prayer, every curse
Finds its way into the bone-dust of stars.
I dream of archives stitched into the dark,
Veins of memory pulsing through nebulae—
All our hands, bloody or tender,
Catalogued in the frost of dead moons,
And liquid methane.
The universe hums like

EVERY FAMILY GOT ONE
Every family got one
That one family member who
You won't invite to the cook-out
Because you know that they'll
Do something stupid to turn it out
And pissed everyone off, might
Even cause a fight to breakout
Every family got one
That one family member
Who's the jokester, who sit
Around and tell those tall tales and
Have everybody laughing even
Though you know

Every scream has an echo
Every scream has an echo.
In alleyways slick with rain,
Where mothers light candles
For sons who won’t come home again.
It rattles through church halls —
Empty pews, silent choirs —
Where prayers turn to ash
In unholy fires.
Every scream has an echo.
In the stomach’s hollow roar,
Where children count cracks
On splintered floors,
Dreaming of feasts
They’ve never known,
Sucking on pennies,
Pretending they’re stones.
It ricochets

At The Other Side Of Every Rainbow Is A Mine Field Of Unanswerable Rhetoric
Humanity is sick.
Humanity is fragile.
We come into the
world being taught
the opposite of
these fundamental
truths.
We are taught that everyone is equal,
that everyone deserves a chance.
But the world teaches us differently.
It doesn’t care who you are—
only what you’re worth,
only what you can
give before you
are broken.
But the truth is sharper—
there are no guarantees,
only chances taken
and chances lost.
What good were
our

We Pass out Every Night
Diving deep in the pond of the sub-consciousness
I die every night, you die every night too
This is our way of rejuvenating the body
This may sound crazy, eerily or even spooky,
However, this is absolutely or definitely true
Our body makes a special trip to correct the mess
Which takes place from a certain time to the other
We die

Every Remaining Last God
Covered by cloud the out-of-sight tops of soaring towers,
Buckling under their own weight, beginning to topple from
Those airy heights;
The gaping breach - the once impregnable outer wall!
The inner keep ablaze with greedy, insatiable flame;
A thunderous cacophony of crashing cymbals and blaring
Horns;
Wide-eyed lurching panic desperately grasping at the fleeting
Moment...
And the whole

Every Woman
She is every woman,
Bringing love to her man,
She shares erotica,
Ever so wundebar,
She is wife to all men,
Loving chick in his zen,
She can birth, she can bleed,
Cook, nurse, love indeed,
She has the ear of God,
Ere power walk over sod,
She is every woman,
Hope you wave that fan!

You, in Every Frame
Your eyes?
They're like midnight — not stars, just... midnight.
Dark, full of something I can't name.
I get lost there. I always do.
It’s frustrating, kind of thrilling too.
Your smile? Trouble.
The kind I’d trip over twice and still chase.
It hangs in the air after you leave —
Like perfume or a half-finished thought.
I hate how much I replay it.
Your
