My Veteran
Forever forever will I miss you Dad,
Even though I tried ofttimes not to be sad.
I know you're in a better place looking down on me,
Smiling down on me,your showers pouring down on me;
Atanda, he whose handwriting is prettiest like a gazelle's footsteps,
Aguntasoo lo, a man with steeze whose cuteness-
Makes all heart push front leaning position

A Mothers Love
I will watch over you
Till my dying day
I'll nurture and cherish
The times that we play
The times when I read
Of adventures to come
As I tuck you in bed
And you suckle your thumb
I will watch over you
As you learn how to live
To become independent
From the knowledge I give
The

Same Old Evening
The evening comes, I recognize
The same old evening’s here
A blurry line across the skies
The sounds of cars I hear
Quite as distinguished as they were
From the embankment side
The motorbikes are also there
Their engines never die
They fade into the background soon
And silence chills the breeze
It fills the gap between my room
And crowns of the trees
And everything looks

When feelings war
By evening light of crimson
Moonlight dabbled through the trees.
Formed shapes of dark and shadow climbed and crawled and followed me.
Weary eyes did gaze on distance.
Though views faded as minutes left.
The seat was waiting to comfort - it knew my walk too well.
Silence could be found though the dabbling water would not stay

blackest wings scale higher than mountains
Blackest wings, scale higher than mountains
in the chill of tonight's air,
scarred and bleeding from within,
determined to reach her lover's side,
A voice calls out to her voyage
but her vision gets lost
as it starts to drizzle and rain.
She collides & in such pain,
her claws trying to embed in the side
of the rocks but she keeps skidding

Love is like a void
Love is like a void until it will accept you it's gonna deprived every qualities of your, but the best part of these voids is that one day it's gonna accept you or leave you and then you will get your qualities again but you will see it with her eyes. Because that's what made

The Autumn Leaves
The Autumn leaves me here to ~ fall ~ —
my crutches that begin firstly
where the tremors ripe from fire drawl
the Autumn leaves
the season's on girl's skin timely —
~ leaves~: her heart a maybe for all
burning coldly, coldly burning —
trees without leaves are not as tall,
I never wanted my deluge.
within the gold

Reunited
In crescendos and surges of light,
Beneath the somber, crimson sky,
Beyond the shadow's line,
He stretched his wings in haste
He found and swept an angels heart;
They shine and struck embrace
And onward flew the angels,
By crimson flame and flash
We simply stood and stared a while,
And heard the trumpets blast.
We saw it singed and scorched in light
And in the

When the Tide Remembers!
The sea was a whisper before it was water,
cleaved through the wind.
I stepped into its silver mouth,
waves curling something pressing in
a wistful longing for a past I never knew.
Seagulls traced ethereal designs across the expanse
their wails scattered like fragments.
Somewhere underneath the foam,
the past was fossilized within sedimentary strata
waiting for my hands to delve deep enough

Esmeralda -
Esmeralda
She felt like a queen with sweet memory and life
nestled in her fortress of lush poetry and light
a place of passion where the world could not go
as she forged on with sweet memories and a
loving novel bestowed
Of tattered pages strewn in moments of flowers and lace
where words came with delicate emotion and could not

meadows
Your flowering wet meadows
reflected, wonder glinting in green eyes,
stumbling arms wrapped in
gentle padows,
tender individual silky drying strands,
elevate every blissful kiss of hair
fingers trembling, marks my scars bare

To Die is to Live
To Die is To Live
To die is to live in a life more complete
Where sorrow and joy in eternity meet
It's not just the, but a sacred release,
A journey to stillness, a moment of peace.
To die is to rise from the weight of the clay,
To step out of time and be swept far away.
The chains of

Poison Pill Song
[Verse 1]
Dance near the silver bridge
Drop a penny in
A penny for your thoughts
You smiled like the end of the world
?
[Pre-Chorus – Extended]
You wrap your soul around me
Like silk that strangles soft
Every heartbeat borrowed
Suddenly, I’m suffocating
?
[Chorus – Haunting, Echoed Vocals]
I can’t breathe
I can’t breathe anymore
Your kiss was a poison pill
Your lipstick inked like blood
You swore it

Somewhere In Time
Somewhere in time
Lost long ago
He had his only true love
All his life, he wondered
What one more kiss would have been like
How it would have felt to hold her again
Maybe how is life would have been better
Alas, the time of that love was long gone
He would never be able to love her
Or love anyone else
