Short Wedging Poems

Ruins speak
ancient elite
beauty outdone
age old
stones cold
tales told
beyond rot
ruins hot
living legends
in cracks wedging
whispered secrets
Ruins’ spirits
windows hollow
tell of tomorrows
listen closely
stones be boasting
exploiting history
revealing mysteries.

We sank into the sea 
Millions of years ago,
Our carcasses set to the sun.
We basked in our own erosion
While our forever-hearts were 
scorched into the brown floor,
Wedging what was left of us 
Into primordial adorableness.
Escaping into ghost love 
Is a natural response.
Let us not judge so quickly....

As we walked alone
Under a golden sun
By the water side
Gazing unto her
Holding her tight
Under the wedging blue sky
She puts her hands in mine
Mine in hers
Her lips on mine
Bringing on me a peaceful bliss
We were not alone
We were just a shadow
In the romance of the sun and sea
But still, our romance
Shadowed the affectionate sea...

You blend the colours
Mix then match
Converting our sorrows
Painting the plain 
Mending fabrics 
Of fragile minds
Soothing them with tender stitches
To befit the grieving souls
We sang you a tune
setting you in a calming stillness
As you blend thunder 
With peculiar lightening 
Striking a volcanic boulder 
Unraveling a blunder 
within a thickened tangle 
That has spread its webs of despair
wedging Freedom Street...

Fear grows like a seed
On the irrational it feeds
Anxiety is what it breeds
Wedging itself to mislead
Acid cascades into my throat
I swallow that panic slipping in
Like a shockwave, a jolt I shake
For not having enough time
To hold on to my breath
Before the waves of panic
comes crashing in!
I keep my eyes closed
And take a deep breath
I will not allow fear to conquer
Opening my eyes, I refuse to cave in!
