Memories Buried In Time

...

My migratory mind indomitably mobile,
recedes with the ebb of time, seeks the shore of the past,
as the spirited surfer on the wandering waves of life,

Unmet expectations damage the dormant psyche,
futile promises smother the rays of fading hope,

Euphoric Epithet

...

Disarrayed sands
dislodged from timeless domain,
dropped by chaotic instants,
settle ceaseless,
                   bemused

Disarrayed sands
dropped by chaotic time

LOST MEANING

...LOST MEANING

Meaning sometimes comes at a cost
