Long Love and loss Poems

   Symbols cry in dry ice theater -
the expanse of aesthetic visa-
drawn-
from the romance of the silvery eye -
as it golden advances the lid of covenance 
in dynamic enzyme.
Open faced type interpreted-
interpreter-embossed embol-

The three enigmas of Turandot

Of China's ancient dynasty and the lost Great Tartary, 
a ballad of love and loss that must be told.

The Emperor's daughter,...

A figure engraved in the fragile tapestry of my past.
Oh, forgive the storms I...

Dust is falling
The one above is calling
Hate myself but can't erase
The damage done is written all over my face

Disassociated and consumed by doubt
All that iv ever known
Turned out to be...

The end of any affair is death. She is my sanctuary,
An evanescent eye, slipping through the magical veil,
Far from the tribe of my soul, my breath

I’m from liberty and justice; kindness and sadness. 
I’m from freedom and victory; presidential elections and offices.
I’m from celebration of freedom and fireworks; and a wonderful melting pot. 
I’m from an eagle and an anthem,...

A path of resilience, courage, and beauty.

Under the canopy of stars, each a distant echo of an unfulfilled dream,
I walk, my footsteps barely touching the earth, as if Terra herself fears the weight of my contemplation.

In the twilight of this dream world, where shadows whisper through the wind,
I wander through corridors of reflection, each turn a portal to forgotten realms,
The stars above, like ancient storytellers, weave tales of love and...

Remembering when
Perched high above on rocky crags
Cliffs weathered by times handprints
I saw far and wide to distant shores
Tendrils of desire radiating outwards

Riding the briny mist

A melody awakens, a sapphire in disguise,

Seeking understanding, longing for a deeper connection.
Enduring, procuring, assuring, alluring,
In this journey of...

For yourself and your kindness

Your eyes, they show sadness
They could tell a thousand...

where shadows dance like forgotten dreams,
I wander through the labyrinth of my thoughts,
a maze of echoes and whispers,
Where each heartbeat is a drummer,
and each breath is a sigh of the universe.
