But a mystery, as long
As all people thrive,
While she longs, in misery,
For worlds that’ll never be.

Misery flouts age.
It knows no race, no gender, no status.
It flows silently in depths so deep
One could get lost forever.

Twilight of Misery

Distant volcano vents bedim 
the ever-changing azure welkin 
Drunk off demons carousing amuck 
in my metaphysical crepuscule

Any total ignoramus
Can end up rich and famous,
But riches and celebrity
Often lead to misery.
Contented I have grown
Being poor and little known.

Gloomy

Cigarette butts pressed into the ashtray.
Yellow fingers from nicotine. 
Wrinkled face!
Squeezed inside!
No passion!
No life !
Drown in misery ...

Born From Rain

You were born from rain,
yet, your nothing but sunshine.
Darkness helped you find your light.
Misery showed you how to shine.
Hate taught you to love.
