Odes of a Shattered Soul
You said: You look like you've been hurt before, Drowned before you could reach the shore. I replied: My father was my first heartbreak, My uncle was my second, I was neglected and never reckoned, If you'd ask me how I am I'd say I'm fine, I can love you even after knowing that you'll never be mine. Loneliness lurking in crowd, Voices...

i was wrong, i am sorry
behold, the Paranoid Schizoid. lost in the void, he’s an android. the Victim of a cruel trick, a tragic sort of magic, there was no favorable pick. i can see it in your eyes. they don’t speak lies. we were caught off guard. oh, my life, a splintered shard. during the sunshower, i confided in the loudest flower. and just like that, said the Bard, i’m somebody else’s...

Scars Of My Soul
You wrote me in scars. You’ve made me like this. You tell me I’m not the same as my old self— That I am something you pay for. Am I something to be paid for? I am torn apart by the way you treat me. I am crushed by the comments you pass. Am I not good enough? I’m weighed down By your words. You’ve...

You shattered my dream
2025.4.20 I was so excited. I was going on a trip, All the way to New South Wales, Sydney. Where I last visited in 2006. This time, I wanted to climb, On the Australia icon "Sydney Harbour bridge", Stamped my feet around the Rocks square, Then on the Sydney Opera House's steps. I had a choice either up north To Newcastle and Lake...

Dreams Dissolve in darkness
In the dead of night, her prince reveals his true form, A wolf in sheep's clothing, his heart as cold as ice, She's trapped in a nightmare, no fairy godmother in sight, Her glass slippers shattered, her dreams left to freeze Her heart, once on her sleeve, now lies frozen and alone, Shattered like the glass that once adorned her...

Kiss A Miss
A whispered vow, beneath the moon's soft gleam, A heart entwined, a lover's hopeful dream. But dawn unveiled a truth, a bitter sting, The treasured one, her faithless offering. A stolen glance, a touch I couldn't place, A hollow smile, where love had left no trace. The shattered trust, a mirror cracked and cold, Kissed a miss, a story to be told. Now...

Shattered Bonds
I thought we were friends, I thought we were close, In laughter and secrets, we’d share the most. But whispers turned bitter, like shadows at noon, My sister's cruel words, like a dark, heavy tune. I never thought I would ever lose you, Thought bonds were unbreakable, steadfast and true....

Shattered Soul
I’m only desired when I conform, If I play my part, a mute who performs. Don’t be different, honest, or true, Wrong, always wrong. Be anything but you. No wonder my load is so hard to carry, The hate I swallow, so I won’t be contrary. The contempt and disappointment they inflict, If only they knew how I fought for...

Shattered Timelines of Grief
Grief is an earthquake, sudden and unforgiving, Splitting the ground beneath your feet, Turning the familiar into fractured ruin. It shakes the foundations of who you are, Toppling memories like crumbling buildings, Leaving nothing but dust where laughter once stood. Aftershocks linger in the quiet moments, A tremor in your chest, a crack in your voice. You try to rebuild, but the landscape...

Premium Member In a world of shadows dancing on a sky shattered by glass and dreams
In a world of shadows dancing on a sky shattered by glass and dreams, The silent war weaves invisible threads through the fabric of forgotten destiny, Dividing the earth like a river flowing through a valley of shattered illusions, The unseen struggle rises, a tumult without sound and without end. Patriots wrap their hearts in flags, loving the land...
