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...

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 Living
Hairline 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...

brother is an angel
tears 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...

In 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 Name
As 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...

Kerceless King
Merciless 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...
