Letter To The Fallen"Memories buried in the wavering wash of time."
I write you now with trembling hand,
The ink runs like the river sand,
Where once we laughed, side by side—
Now silence stands where you had died.
Your dog tags hang from rusted steel,
A ghost’s reminder I still feel.
Your voice just echoes in my chest,
A joke, a shout, your final rest.
We...

a bus rideA Bus Ride
I had bought a
newspaper in town and was taking the bus home
an hours ride
up to my village. I looked at the
headlines
noticed the paper had no date
was I reading yesterday’s
today`s news or tomorrow`s
The bus was empty this afternoon
it struck me how silent it ran could only hear the swishing
sound of
rubber against the
asphalted road.
Then...

Spilled Wine
Laughter and love
Light hearted yet serious
A touch and a smile
Oops a little wine spilled
A rush and an experience
Here, take a bite
The music all around us
And yet we're alone
Laughter and love
Lighthearted yet serious
We walk hand in hand
A story untold
I'll love you forever
And ever and ever
Time stands still for us and
Oops a little wine spilled

Cemetery Holds The LivingHairline chasm threads
cobweb white through obsidian—
wrapped around carved names
once warm on living tongues.
Those who lived visit
with heads down,
pretending it’s superstition—
not guilt.
not memory.
not fear of love ending abruptly
in a plot...

Cook With MeLet's eat, let's Cook, let's host, let's talk.
I'm thinking of Onions and olive oil,
as Our hungry friends watch us like a hawk,
and wait by the Kitchen for stew to boil.
The most fun I've ever had, I Would say,
is cooking with you. I've said it, okay!
Let's plan a recipe, Take off to the store,

LostI lost my beautiful dog today
I lost my dearest friend
She took with her
a piece of my heart
I’ll never feel again
I know you’ll say
there will come a day
when your heart is filled with another
but you didn’t know
my Chuli girl
A dog unlike any other
I’ve never cried
or felt...

brother is an angeltears in my eyes for all the memories we made,
we have been lost since you went away,
since you gained your angel wings,
we are saddened that we can not hear you sing,
you were such an amazing guy,
you brought happiness when we were about to cry,
and your spirit will live forevermore,...

Navigating the Treacherous Waters of Office Politics
In office halls, where silhouettes loom,
Beware the boss who calls you aside to manipulate,
A trap awaits, where whispers seal your destiny,
Keep colleague woes locked deep, an unspoken weight.
Security's helping hand may hold a test,
Expectation's seed, in every coin you nest,
Proximity breeds contempt, a subtle art,
One day's omission, and you're branded apart.
Close friendships forged in workplace...

California SunshineIn a thriving city a boy was born,
growing up melancholy and forlorn,
thoughtful, with a poet's sensitive soul,
he knew he was different and unwhole.
His life would be both rose and piercing thorn.
He took to the road, and he travelled far.
In the Summer of Love, he found his star,
and for the first time, he felt happiness.
a strange new...

Remember my NameAs I walk down the corridors of time, the scene of eight decades ago came back to haunt my mind, I can hear the bombs exploding and the waves fighting with the howling wind and screams and cries emerges from the deep, and somewhere in the midst of the sand, I could hear someone...

In Memory OfSo many friends came to say goodbye
Remember the good times, not going to cry
You were such a part of everyone you knew
A special someone for everything that makes up you
Hard to accept that you are no longer here
Keep waiting for the moment when you reappear
It really hit me, hearing the songs you wrote
Nobody else could...

The Voice in YouListen to the voice in you
And it will tell you what to do
Shake the burden off your head
And meditate upon your bed
Listen carefully to the voice inside you
And it will guide you, it is the voice
That speaks the truth, it is the voice
That will redeem you from your
Battered youth, head strong
Weak heart, head strong and
Broken...

Kerceless KingMerciless King
Beckoned by your hearts, endangered are your lives by the deranged.
Unto the frey i am thrown, upon my heart your mournful cry sewn.
With valor I berzerk valiant within my vitality.
Repugnant are the actions of your enemies, from my mouth I cry out my anthem!
From too unto fro, I outlast thy enemy that witch is...
