A Halloween Dream
...
Occasionally I dream.
Black ominous spots as my eyes close.
A dream I never remember,
A dream I don't want to remember.
For when I do I cringe with fear,
Sit in a corner of my darkened room...

Numbed
...The waves came to sweep me
on the pebbles
Through the ears of the breeze

On the wings of the albatross
I saw the rising sun
Today exhausted I am on the stone

Black ominous spots in my closed eyes.
Dreams I never remember,
Dreams I don't want to remember.
For when I do I cringe with fear
Sit in a corner of my darkened room,

Monday
...Monday
mocks melancholy
chides children
plagues parents

What Could Have Been
...The expectations held on tightly
Strong enough to suffocate your love for me
What if all I needed was to let go?
Leave my dreams aside
To keep you by my side
I would've done it
Anything to ke...

Hours run full speed to days, days grow wings and fly to become weeks
Then months, years, decades….

Is it time once again
for me to stand before this jury
and repeat the words I'm sorry
for me to stand before this council
list my excuses for being away for so long
What's...

A room in town with soft coughs and smiles
Stories are to told of condolences, loss
Its tubular chairs screech on polished tile
We waiting here to be...

Beyond Memory
...Memory plays ‘hide-and-seek’.
Mind is a sorry seeker in this game.
A doctor prescribes to cure ‘the void’.
It’s a learned hypocrisy.
Words clash one another on Mrs.Pathu’s
tongue and fall down...

...The non-exsistant nature of things most desired fuels a heart
already marred with disdain and disfugured with impropreity.
The heart turns inward wrapping itself into a bleeding barbed wire prison....
