Emotion

...An African drum throbs from a distance.

As my lobes grow softer ...

...Twilight Ronin

     From day to night, I travel from east to right.

Earthquakes of bedlam quell
As tectonic plates of emotional instability cease shifting.  
The tears of a discarded clown, suspended in animation—  
Numbness overtakes.

A cold monolithic grace

...
shadows stretched
from unblinking stone
a sun dares trespass
it's obsidian skin cold

The Hollowing

But the echoes faded,
And slowly, I lost my voice.

I once cried
Until the rivers dried,
And slowly, I lost my tears.

Village Evening

...An autumn night.  
How wondrous is its tranquil stillness,  
The night breeze gently caresses my face.  
Sheep is chew, camels cry, dogs bark,  
All revealing the village’s lively pace.

Excuses

...Your excuses are cut deep into me,
Every word, a wound on my skin,
They bleed but do not kill,
They weep but do not cry,
I watch myself losing you,

An echo of footsteps fill the serene salty air,
muffled thuds like faint taps in slow motion,
moving in a somber sonata over a creaking pier.
The bitter breeze is a harbinger of forthcom...

She lived in shadows, where light felt too bright
And joy was something spoken of,
But seldom felt or experienced, something

Hollow soul, heavy heart.
Inner self falling apart.

Things didn't go the way I wanted, 
they were far different from what I expected.

Worked hard day and night,

Emotionally numb

...Emotionally numb.

Sitting here in the emptiness,
My mind in a void of emptiness,
As I try to make sense of it all,
But all I feel is a lonely fall.

My broken heart just thumps along,
As I t...

Web of clever lies

...In shadows deep where truth does weep, There lies a figure, veiled, asleep. A hypocrite, with words so sweet, Yet actions cold, deceit complete.

With lips that part in righteous guise, They weave ...

Ego's captive, their world forever bound.
A facade of grandeur, a charade of delights..

...Strangle

You don’t realize
How much I hate your guts
Clutch a glass so tight
I don’t see the blood 
Leaking from the shards
That’ve dug deep into my skin.

Eyes twitching like I’m on caffei...
