You are a flame in the dark, ugly and beautiful
You are a flame in the dark, ugly and beautiful,
A labyrinth of contradictions, a dance in dissonance.
You are a rose with thorns, so beautiful yet painful,
A girl with angel eyes, innocent and yet perverse.
You are a mystery, an enigma shrouded in mist,
A puzzle with thousands of pieces, a challenge slipping from my lips.
You are a

For the women with hearts ignited by divine fire
For the women with hearts ignited by divine fire,
Who love with an intensity that surpasses all boundaries,
With voices echoing like a call through the mountains,
Proud and confident, like lions reigning in the wild.
For the women with souls painted in vivid colors,
As varied as the stars in the night sky,
Strange and wild, like an uncharted forest,
Who

In the morning, when I open my eyes at dawn
In the morning, when I open my eyes at dawn,
She is the sun that lights up my world with her silken rays.
In her face resting on the pillow of dreams, I find the first light,
And before I wrap myself in the mantle of night, she is my last glance.
She is the light of my life,

Your eyes are orbs of light where untold secrets sleep
Your eyes are orbs of light where untold secrets sleep,
they cut through darkness like arrows searching for lost light,
and in their depths gather loves and losses like rain in a cup,
unspoken stories burning silently, like embers beneath the wind's ash.
They seek hearts once open, now closed within their own silence,
reflecting dreams that do not die,

In the garden where morality is a shadow spinning into nothingness
In the garden where morality is a shadow spinning into nothingness,
two bodies touch like shadows fading into the smoke of dusk,
it's not love, just an echo of another touch, a pulse in the unnatural,
we are strangers meeting and parting on a stage of forgetfulness.
And your eyes are deep lakes, reflecting no hope,
only empty desires seeking

Reachable Constellations
I waver at the star teeth
of my own invention,
accreting webs of wild light
where night trades
cold for dark
sidereal heat.
I am not here for mundane marvels—
I am here to manifest my most
daring fantasies into reachable
constellations,
grasping at the ungraspable—
drawing unfathomables to fruition.

Casper the Friendly Ghost
Casper the Friendly Ghost
was youthful and wanted one thing the most;
each show he searched to find and make friends.
kids always ran; maybe the wispy can't plan solid ends.

In realms of dreams, where magic is born in the late evening hour
In realms of dreams, where magic is born in the late evening hour,
A hidden paradise in whispers and in the descending moonlight's power.
Beautiful settings, love like an old perfume, beyond description,
Amber eyes burning with vows in the fire of a dream's depiction.
On this earth, seductive and full of love, we lose our senses completely,
Shadows of

What's This
In a pond,
there lives a frog
who looks and talks
like a polywog.
When he's asked,
Why is this so?
he looks up and says,
I don't know.
Now truth be told
we're none the same
and you can call it
by any name;
but it still holds true
that a rose is a rose,
so go and stick that
up your nose!
Now it's no matter
if you're here

AMERICA POINT OF VIEW
Without geography
The USA is this world
Others, mere planets...
Japan is in Russia
Brazil is in China
China is out there in the world...!
Geography is a personal study
of the USA... Others are satellites

A Broken Piece
I know I messed things up
But you chose to be in a slump
You had the chance to show up
When I needed you to pick me up
But you chose to break me up
I gave all of me
You have only seen the dim of me
Ignored the worth of me
You were clearly a mistake of me
Rainbows smile is

External Storms
External Storms
Listen close, the winds whisper low,
A symphony of sorrow's ebb and glow.
Thunder rumbles, a beast awakening,
Heaven's own heartbeat, in warning speaking.
Pressure builds, unseen forces stir,
An invisible tempest, nature's curse.
Silhouettes dance on lightning's flash,
Echoes of laughter turn to ash.
As shadows lengthen and tempests rage outside,
Within these walls, another battle wages.
A heart laid

Dive In
Dive in
Baby there's sharks in the water,
I need to get in the waters,
You know where not getting younger,
Well sink or we'll swim,
Baby are you with me?
Invincible, until you cut me open,
We are strangers, bound by love's cruel illusion...
Would you dive down, plunge into the abyss?
Tread through the wreckage of my shattered bliss?
Could you swim against

The Start of a New Poem
It is a night creamed by melting darkness.
Fireflies are obsessed with secrecy tonight
And dim their lights cautiously, frugally.
Crickets and cicadas crepitate with muted
Feelings, sallying wretched, orphaned tadpoles.
I cringe from traditional horror,
Wincing with the power of concern.
Lest I forget, the moon travelled out of town.
The constellation was keeping wake in the outer
Universe, where stars were hired
