SINGING SOLO
songer.co/songs/d13xwglmtpey1ifgc5pvm4kc [Verse 1] Remember meeting on a whim, First night stars in the dim, Loving me, forgetting him, It felt like lyrics from heaven, a sweet hymn. Those early days, all together, Made me light as a feather, No way on earth to deny, How you made me so high. Every cloud above knew my name, Now I’m wrapped in this pain, Wishing for those days, driving...

A Night Beneath the Sky
Not once did I blink, Afraid your gaze would fade at twilight’s brink, Drowning silent in your soundless sea, Begging the world to let me be, Even if death walks next to me. No past to flee, No future to believe, Only you — a shadow near, Clutching time in a crystal tear. I won’t let go of your hand, Though skies might break and...

Will End Too
As I sit by myself in a room full of Strangers, I listen to the cacophony , The Chaos of Voices, laughter and conversations ; It feels very familiar, and I can't help but wonder how soon it Will end . And again after a few...

Premium Member In The Beginning
In the beginning two lovers were born In the campus parking lot behind the student union They clung together for 60 years Until one day my wounded bird knew Her broken hip would not allow her to fly again I was too old and weak to pick her up off the floor When she fell...she said she wanted to go to...

THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN
It feels like the walls are closing into silence each breath tighter than the last as if love itself might end our existence. I lie here, half a human reaching for air and you. You're holding back, I feel it but something sacred is taking shape. Your thoughts speak in whispers louder than words echoing in rhythm with mine confessing what lips still fear to say. Now...

Premium Member I Want This Kiss
I want my lips to speak for me This kiss, a taste of what's to be A prelude of a lover's play To tell you more than words can say I want to melt your soul with this To make you weak, in throes of bliss I want your world to fall away To feel you tremble in the sway I want...

Aching Need
I Surrender to The Desires of Primal Fire Penning Words That Have not Yet Been Created Shuddered By Mocked Phantom Elevations Rendered Unsated! Deepened Sense of Tangled Feelings The Weight of My Dignity Naked Vulnerabilities Inked Beyond Intoxicating. Unyielding Control Demolished by a Dreamy Kiss Promised Passion Blooms and Ignites Radiating Fantasized Hope Breaking Barriers of Destined Bliss! ...

Premium Member In the silence of the night, words flow like a river of deep longing
In the silence of the night, words flow like a river of deep longing, She said it's just a poem, left on the windowsill to tremble in the wind, The ink is wet, uncried tears, a silent call, Her vulnerability, like a secret that cannot be told. I felt the chill when the sun set behind her, Her silhouette bare...

Atopos
the space was invaded by his disappearance, everything he touched felt so quiet, and alive, more alive than i was, (i sat on the bed, curled, like a dog, with the nozzle on its paws, eyes in tears) the chair remained near the window, closer to the flowers, and closer to the light, i watched it as if it belonged to a king: - this...

ACROPHOBIA
songer.co/song/r8btoho3abg0psszqle86vkb [Verse 1] Girl, I’m caught between the thrill and the fall, Your shadow’s tracing cracks across my wall. Electric hum beneath my skin, Addicted to the mess I’m in. [Pre-Chorus] Whispers call me higher, but I grip the rail, Chasing sparks that flicker — I can’t bail. Every heartbeat’s a quiet fight, Lost inside your soft, electric light. [Chorus] Acrophobia, yet I’m chasing the highs, Hands shake...

Premium Member How the Heart Forges
I wake— each dawn a slender promise shoulders gilded, by hesitant sun. The world, wide as longing real as the air I breathe— crests of mountains waiting horizons keeping their counsel. My heart, uncertain…. ventures like a melodic wind carried on— searching for a sign where wonder grows wild within. Between the strums of my old guitar and laughter in morning dew I surrender: each note of yesteryear kindles today’s quiet lesson A...
