Premium Member In the labyrinth of warmth, I sought refuge in the cold room of frozen memories
In the labyrinth of warmth, I sought refuge in the cold room of frozen memories, From the cold room, I fled to the coffin of unspoken promises, And from the coffin? Only the bare hands of time bury constellations in the soul, Though coffins are perhaps the cheapest homes in real estate listings, No cell is lonelier than a...

Premium Member In my eyes, the sought truth reflects
In my eyes, the sought truth reflects, But my lips speak only lies, incessantly. That's how I am, a soul that resists, Every personality it meets along the way. Sweet words like homemade pastries, But my eyes and heart hide unknown treasures, unshared. Once I had a delicate soul of pure gold, But my innocence was shattered, and life became a burden. You...

GO-AROURA SOUGHT SODOM SING
‘Gomorrah heard word that hell froze over in sodom,’ “Go-aroura?” Sodom glanced across the room, “Is that some kinda name I’ve supposedly forgotten?” On top of me, Her hands rest where my shoulders sleep. I felt her stop, Her heart knots up but loosens right back to speed. Her nails break skin, My blood smolders...

Premium Member I Sought My Wilderness Past Coln St Aldwyns
I sought my wilderness, past Coln St Aldwyns, past the bishop's lace, conker trees, and heather, untethered, my embrace, of timeless winds, that whisper to me, all, breath and being, everywhere, at once, past the bishop's lace, conker trees, and heather, untethered, my embrace, of timeless winds, that whisper, to my wilderness, past Coln St Aldwyns. ...

Life Sought in Death
How shall it be that at His death His breath Sings a solemn anthem on repeat So sweet, As if He is not met with strife In life. The truth lies not in nailing knife, He knows no desperation. His death is our salvation; His breath so sweet in life....

Premium Member If I sought to understand the essence of a culture, perhaps my own
If I sought to understand the essence of a culture, perhaps my own, And considered this understanding a lifelong quest, I would first turn my gaze toward the realms where poetry lives, For in the poet's heart, the deepest truths manifest. Poets, eternally amazed by the wonders of existence, Build worlds and dreams with unwavering persistence. Their words, like vines, weave...

Premium Member Love and death do not need to be sought, they seek you, two intertwined shadows
Love and death do not need to be sought, they seek you, two intertwined shadows On the stage of your life, rays of gold and silver slipping through the windows of darkness, Each heartbeat an echo of a stellar dance, in which souls meld and disperse In eternal waves, currents of light and shadow traversing the rivers of...

Premium Member A Place of Sanity Sought
When the mind stops, blank without thought, It goes to a place of sanity sought. For sanity is to chaos’ distain, That place where silence and calm are gain. It’s from this place of quiet and calm, That peace can bring a healing balm. As soothing as a soft cool breeze, This time of peace will surely please. It’s here when lavished in...

Premium Member A Quiet Place That I Sought
When I was down in the dumps I longed to be away from the din of the world And a quiet place I sought Nature has always been my refuge Amid the clump of trees where the wind caresses the leaves Where birds twitter and trill their songs Like a hermit I sat, my eyes closed, my body lazing My mind,...
