Love's Last Heartbeat
In the moorlands of desires,
I've forever sung choruses of
fertile faith, amidst the flock
of bleeding birds, sprinkling
heartbeats on lush olive herbs,
In the dream of retracing their
scintillating season of beachy spring.
'Hope' had...

The Ashes of Our Innocence
A song can be heard tonight
Swirling about me beating down my strength
Enfolding the whole of me with thick, terrifying captivation
That chokes a city with the roaring thunder of despair
Of the innocent obliterated in the unforgettable...

Sweet ocean, caress... pilialoha
Massaging her beach, my waves gently toiled.

Answering, she said, ...

The Quiet Hypocrisy
A Rant – The Quiet Hypocrisy
it seeps in through gradual osmosis
and soon is ingrained in pliant minds
it mutates and thrives in tunnels of vision
and then is fused into the fiber of unreason
the quiet hypocrisy that...

Silver Streak
Verse 1:
Floating in deep blue oceans
my dreams struggle to reap
I am haunted by gloomy strums
echoing in my broken sleep
Verse 2:
Burning shadows rage in hollows
wailing to the darkness of night
my heart pierced by blazing agony

My Light In Your Darkness
Be brave.
My light in your darkness,
shivers before these winds.
Warm your hands and slow the death,
until these nights all flee.
Be brave and part your lips.
Drown my soul and wipe those tears.
Rise for me and not feel...

The outer rims of the black Earth
Raw refining nothingness in oblivion
Where no-one desired to reside
Without a hatred for life, that which simmers
Like the fire which lives deeply within
And punctures the soul...

Stages
It cowers in the corner,
newly born.
I turn my spite-soaked back,
riddled with resentment
and pull the thin veil
to sink beneath its cover.

threatening to merge.

A dogs unconditional love
My childhood was meant for innocent adventures,

Planting seeds of fear only a shattered soul...
