If I regret

exploding on the horizon,

it is rare,
if such love exists at all
it must thrive beyond boundaries of my own experience
either receiving,
or giving.

Could this perfection of synergetic harmony and confluence
we have grown to love as love itself

The Hardships of Honesty - Speak To Me

Tell me this…

In your vision,
Am I your mission?
In your eyes,
Are their hints of lies?

They...

Thus Says He

Thus says He who guards the gate,
The atmosphere is stagnant,
Stagnant with discontented gluttons,
Tangled with tricks and deceptions,
Soaked with indoctrination,
And charged with foul breath. 

Thus says He who guards the gate,
The atmosphere is saturated,
Saturated with dirt...

Unlike the seas, who believe
In keeping their secrets,
Seizing the hopes and dreams
Inspirations that agree
Generosity sees the need
Provides without expectation
Contributes and never listens
To the voice of greed – believes
Giving is the way to bring to life

In the labyrinth of thoughts, where worlds silently revolve

In the labyrinth of thoughts, where worlds silently revolve,
Under the shadow of the Monarch ruling in unseen illusions,
A solitary Sovereign, avatar of ancestral downfall,
Reigns eternally over human souls, ephemeral and fragile.
And only Christ, the divine...
