Premium Member I'm often asked if there is life after death
I'm often asked if there is life after death, I say yes, there certainly is, like a secret hidden in the woods, Death after life and life before death, an endless cycle, Everything continues without stopping, a river of time that cannot be dammed, We live forever and die forever, spirals of existence. As for heaven and hell, they are...

Premium Member If only I had known
in the silence of a rising sun i hear the echo of voices amid whispers and recognize old smiling faces in the hush of a frost laden morning i detect the hint of angelic glances while gently rocking the sleeping babe beneath the subdued moonlight i recognize the lingering perfume of love reclaimed in june ...

If The Moon Should Disappear
If the moon should disappear, And the sea forget her sway, Would you still walk beside me, When the stars have lost their way? Would the tides grow still and hollow, Would the cliffs no longer sing? Would the hush of moonless midnight Steal the silver from the spring? Ocean tides, so long enchanted, Whisper dreams I cannot keep— They retreat with grace unspoken To the...

Premium Member If you let me, the clouds will open like coconuts under the weight of the sky
If you let me, the clouds will open like coconuts under the weight of the sky, acidic milk will cascade over your cities, drowning them in twilight, thin lightning like my fingers will write unknown messages in the sky, I will scour the turbulent air to reach you, traveling through time like a dream, I will step on the...

IF YOU COULD GO BACK
If you could go back, even just once Would you fall for a face or feel for a heart? Would you still ignore that quiet voice inside Or would you trust it this time & let it guide? Would you laugh a little more, cry a little less Take the messy road, stop the guess? Would you stop chasing perfect, slow...

WISH
If happiness were tangible, It would wear your texture. If beauty were alive, It would mirror your face. If love lived among us, It would breathe with your soul. If love stories were paintings, You’d be an art of devotion. You gave me hope— Hope for tomorrow. And if one day we part ways, I will forget you, piece by piece. You would be my final memory...

If You Leave Me
If you leave me The clouds will split open like coconuts Acid milk will pour over your cities Lightning will flash, skinny like my fingers I will pry through the sky to reach you I will travel through time to reach you If you leave me The wolves will howl They will come for your flock of sheep Blood will spill, dark like my...

Premium Member If I could tell you what silent universe is born in my heart
If I could tell you what silent universe is born in my heart, The words would come when my tongue dances freely on the stage of desires, But in front of you, my control melts like snow under the touch of spring, Your presence steals my thoughts and turns them into butterflies of light. If you gave me a...

Premium Member If Not One Way, Then Another
Thanks for another day Others curse their luck, stale breath Eventually our enemy becomes our brother Cancer checkup, another swinging dick who fears his death To not necessarily sacrifice each and every day for another day I’m going to go to my grave unsung like almost everyone Numerous number systems beyond the real Look one way, from another come the heart’s...

Premium Member No, I don't want to be alone, but if I'm not alone, I become a selfish soul lost in the crowd
No, I don't want to be alone, but if I'm not alone, I become a selfish soul lost in the crowd, Alone in the arms of others, like a traveler lost without a map among unfamiliar faces, If I'm not alone, I become a martyr of silence or a voiceless flatterer amid the clamor, My soul slowly drowns...

Premium Member If on a silent night I were to disappear without a trace, like a dream that dissipates at dawn
If on a silent night I were to disappear without a trace, like a dream that dissipates at dawn, No one would notice I had gone, no one would ask where I was or which path I took, The world would continue its course, a perfect mechanism that doesn’t stop for a lost soul, And my words, spoken...

Don't mind if I do
Here is my loving tribute to you, You really don't mind if I do, Send my thankful smiles your way, Laugh, power to the grey, After forty years, You remove fears, You don't mind, So kind, You..........
