The truth hurts, doesn't it?
You moan about how we say life isn't fair But it shouldn't have to be fair for equality to exist Life being fair isn't being born into luxury Its being rich in safety An automatic right we all should have Being rich doesn't always equal wealth Rich is safety and the lack of doubt Invalidation is a hobby for...

Premium Member The gap between love and true love
When love is good, it's really great. Unfortunately for most when the sparkle fades, they don't know how to fix it. Seems easier for many to clear the slate and go for instant gratification of finding someone new. They're addicted to easy pickings and the high of novelty. The other side of that coin is they are cursed to never experience the depth of true and lasting love. AP:...

  O river of moon roses                 ferry me home.... I weep in quivering quiescence       like a weathered wild petal~   healing and hurting             in my p o e t i c recluse.. perhaps there is no word to depict your thunder-struck garden as breathless...

Worth remembering
Into darkness without my friend, Every hardship has an end. But to struggle alone, when you ask for help… breaks the bond you both have felt. No person is worth more, than what they give. So when you reach the end , will you also be missed?...

Change you. Change me? For whom? Society? What for? So that i can be “normal?” Normal for whom? Unknowns? Fix? Change? Me? You? I am me. But...

Within my joy there is no hidden sorrow No sense in mixing opposites I see Don’t want to rediscover gone tomorrows I’m superficial, from the signs of depth I flee Knowing that troubles could be easily incurred In magic of the nature I’m involved It saves my time, and helps me to endure The anxieties of this deceptive world To swim beyond the...

Superficial impressions, like the sunset ripple Museums, beaches, cafes by the score The phrasebook conversations with the service people Cliches in their predictable galore You’re saved from depth and filled with little pleasures The charms of tourism, early breakfasts, late night bed You travel light or loaded, spot some treasures And file them in the archive, to forget. ...

Smile while you can, with every given day. Under this beautiful sky is your own paradise. Nature welcomes you when you appreciate yourself. Reach the top of your "Aura", don't fall into the emptiness. Ignore the superficial and the bad vibrations. Sacrifice your life squeezing the best of you. Earth is the place we know, our heaven to be embraced to. ...

She pooh-poohed his smallish gift. He looked glum and she looked miffed. No diamond in sight, She did not delight. Her love for him was set adrift....

why do we still assume that whispered diamond dialects delicate and sheer aren't scripted with blades that curdle blood-stained musings as summer symphonies scorch ebony skin tattooed with dark and deep sinister sonnets sewn from superficial scarlet syllables that emanate rusted mahogany hues so listen to the mulberry metaphors that rain with roseate rhymes from the hazy melancholic midnight skies where not every...

I am about as together as a goose’s loose feathers. However, sadly that means I’m so lightweight I can get carried away. I am as well-assembled as blocks that are oh so easily connected. However, sadly that means it’s all too easy for me to fall to pieces....

Souls of Strangers
Often, as I lie awake Silent in the stillness of night I think of you And I ponder how Through the gift of reacquaintance Our lives entwined and unravelled Priorities widened and waned Worlds synced and separated My mind revisits Every late night, spent close in connection Every challenge confronted Every emotion uncovered Every depth of feeling shared And now, here lies a superficial shroud In...

Home Sweet Home
Picturesque and simple with sweet little windows, Tidy guestrooms beside stylish bedrooms, A kitchen straight out of a home catalog, All contain inside plastic walls. Blush, copper, teal walls leading to a bathroom, Cobalt blue hibiscus designs on matching tea sets, Coordinating furniture in every room. Delicate and perfect from the roof to the garden. Impeccable ideal home, a tangible version of home. A...
