While Crawling Toward the Finish
He had been in a deep dream, searching for a lost puppy
When the clanging alarm startled him to reality
The clear images fading like a burning photograph
Then, a desperate sense of unrecoverable loss

Lying on a couch,...

Premium Member Waiting for Waiting’s End
The chancy countdown clock of my mortality
is ticking toward some unknown preset alarm.
I’m aware of every taciturn tick tock
in unrecoverable moments spent waiting
for something to happen…
and I do not wait well.

I wait for stiff slices...

Un.
i always knew i wouldn’t die in a car accident.

over, and over in my mind i pictured


	the breath-gulping jolt, the heart-stopping shudder
the weak, gasping, clawing for control
inside the dark blackness

glass raining down on the innocent...

Once i stood at the peak of mount

Observing the red sun and dry winds 
of the Vulcan homeworld
Surveying the vast desert land in a 
cloud of dust
Silently wishing in my heart that it

Elusive Dreams
Outside my window,
the leaves are in a frenzy~
twirling, shaking and flying about 
the wind just sending them off
in a scattered dance...
so similar to the
thoughts
chaotic in my mind

Sleep comes around,
but the dreams do not.

Or do they?
And...

I searched 'ere the dawn, where could it have gone,
for now, it possesses me, as a mystery, till dawn met me.

I've no rhyme or reason that a loved entity goes awry,

The years of youth lost...unrecoverable,
from a life of debauchery.
   Where all the faces are now nameless.
   From the fresh scent of Spring,
   through the endless Summers,
   and...

Victory - Heroes Indeed
The worlds’ heroes merge and emerge

Just as the world is about to sink into unrecoverable oblivion

They appear
looking fearless
dauntless in their toughness
Fighting relentless, persistent
Heroes indeed
Consisting of you & me
Collapsing erected barriers
Gradually vanishing & erasing every tormenting,...

I cry
Because I really hope I'm not the person he paints
It's heartbreakingly awful to look at a person telling you how bad you make them feel
And I just can't understand or empathise with him -...

Deserted Field
I wished for a man to be greater than a man,
he became a god doesn’t know the meaning of humbleness,
but is self righteous;
from the sky he flows as a cloud of arrogance
rain pours with no...

Unique things we've lost over the years,
Near to our concerns all the time.
Rewinding the time is not possible.
Eager conquers our existence 
Chosing one thing that is gone.
One piece of our life difficult to get again.
Valuable...

Friendship Is
A phone call when you're too busy to call
A kind word when the person has made you angry
A word of encouragement when you are feeling discouraged
An offer of help when you can least afford it

For My Children
FOR MY CHILDREN

I wept today
For I changed everything
My heart tore
Be it as it may
No faerie tale
No happy ending

I wept today
For, I realised the true cost
How I changed everything
All that I lost
I couldn’t see it your...
