SOLACE
Slowly
I walk along old path
Miles and miles up the hill
Until the sunset wraps the sky
In red flames
The river beneath
Flows peacefully
Its tranquil embraces my being
Into a shy silence
My anxious mind wants to rest
Birds around sing about life
So detached is the soul
From the body
As if you are eternal
Timeless moment
Beyond toxic reality
Longing for something
I am missing -
Your tender

Sorrowful Solace
Some will savor their sorrow
They claim the pain defines them
No love they beg or borrow
Disdain takes aim and binds them
Some will survive their sorrow
They claim the rain reminds them
Of love they'd beg to borrow
No pain they claim defines them

No Peace, No Solace
I wish I could’ve whispered
To my young and clueless self
That this boy lives on a timer
This boy really needs help
It was already written down
By nature’s cruel hand
It was craved into the stars
He’ll try, but won’t withstand
One day I was in English class
I got a breaking

I Wandered Weightless as a Feather
after “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” (also sometimes called “Daffodils”) by William Wordsworth
I wandered weightless as a feather,
a muted plume from mourning dove.
A tuft afloat in breezy weather
connected now to skies above;
as long as winds will carry me
from over fields and out to sea.
My glad esprit more free than

A Fevered Night, Unscheduled Departure II
I creep into your room, my steps are unsteady,
You went to bed with symptoms of the flu,
A soft child’s breath is what I seek,
To touch, to comfort—to ensure peace.
But as I peel back the covers, I find
Your stillness is no longer sleep.
I call your name, my voice trembling,
Attempt to rouse you from your peace,
But you

Beautifully Unplanned
When an ordinary day becomes the unexpected,
The hours turn into a rush, and get connected.
I turned my head to find who stood there,
Our eyes met—something rare
I didn’t give anything that hinted at chaos,
Didn’t give a little smile, just raised my eyebrows.
Ignoring someone, shaking my head—
Not now, I’m done being bled.
But you’re the one giving me

trade
I know you wish for a place to be,
hidden in the mist, silent as the sea.
No fear, no hope, no questions asked.
where the nights are not heavy
and darkness don't last.
could you trade this place
For your favourite song?
the throbbing of your heart
as you run towards the dawn.

Warmth
I laid down my stone cold head
boiling with thoughts on my mother's lap.
The warmth of the lap touched my heart and soul
easing my troubled psyche.
I slept on that warmth
with great comfort like a baby
