Premium Member My True Colours

are just black and white ~ grey areas in between the nightmares ignite

doesn’t matter if i err left or right ~ minefields lead me here each night

Why I Love

Let my heart rest in minefields
I am quiet.
Winter approaches like a legion,
All the animals wait through the night.
I am so lonely for you.
You don't burn like drugs,
More like Russian roulette
Please let me go.
I am by myself again
The dreams have left me
The sun peaks through the clouds
It's a bit vexing.

Premium Member Controversy


For Natalia Kills


Are the majority
of things in
life controversies?
It seems like
there is always
another side
of the story
You have to
maneuver delicately
amidst the minefields
of trepidations that
pester your 
daily routine
Even simple decisions
can cause angst
Who to go out with?
Where to go? When?
Others are involved
making it hard
to appease everyone
Such is life

In the Trenches, In Love

In the Trenches, In Love


Digging deep, entrenched,
barricaded against love's bayonet,
securing the heart,
impregnable, shielded,

but,
love breaches the lines.

The defences crumble,
walls of steel melt away,
shields are lowered, 
minefields disappear,

as,
love overwhelms the night.


Alone now, desolate, exposed,
my embattled heart lies injured,
the fatal blow being dealt by you,

in the trenches, in love.

Premium Member Wandering


Not physically but mentally
as I reckoned with
my precarious situation
caused by years of
philosophical indifference
bestowed upon myself
while I was skipping
to and fro through
the minefields of existence
wondering where I was heading
with a gleeful exuberance
that bordered on naivete
Now I felt as if I had
been kidnapped by circumstances
As if things were
spiraling out of control
But I knew
deep down inside
that if I remained
calm and balanced
things would work out
