Premium MemberWhen Will I Not Love You

When will I not love you
shall there be a distant flame
flickering beyond the warmth of 
an Indian summer's sultry breeze

When will I not love you 
will the sun rest on top of giant
umbrellas dancing heavenly  
about sparkling shores

When will I not love you
shall the roaring tides rise
over broken sea shells 
sending the tiny crabs back
inside hidden cubby holes
 
When will I not love you
will the standing vessels finally 
set sail upon the calming Voss seas
cunning seduction banks of marigolds 
from ancient good byes as new worlds 
collides gleaming about sullen memories 
When will i not love you when

Internal Equinox

Days grow dark
And seasons shorter
But as life cycles on,
We must hold on longer..

I've been to every point of the compass
Yet my mind is still a ruckus
Until I realized that inside, lies a love that is
If not of another's then one of my own bliss

Found out the hard way,..
inside my temple is my treasure cove
Even if it slumbers alone without a dragon to guard my gold
It still floats in my mind and wonders my dreams
 as it roams

Waiting on love seems useless when I can love myself
A selfish vendetta it sounds, until one comes along that proves themselves
Inside I speak from perspective as inside there is no one else
Only fragments of the one one who gifted me with the ability
To put useless thoughts on a self
As outside I love and try to catch my breath
Until a real romantic endeavor becomes actually good for own health.

Happy birthday ?? Voss Stallen

Jesus's Torment - The Villanelle Of The Will--

Jesus couldn't stop thinking about the will
It was just so Jesus and cross
But he could never forget the till

That morning, Jesus encountered a will so chill
He had to calm himself with a moss
Jesus couldn't stop thinking about the will

Later, Jesus was spooked by a drill
He tried to focus on a cos
But he could never forget the till

Mary said, the will wasn't that null
Said his mind had become too crisscross
Jesus couldn't stop thinking about the will

Jesus took action like a spill
The will was like a toxic os
But he could never forget the till

Jesus nosedived like a sweet lull
His mind turned into a voss
Jesus couldn't stop thinking about the will
But he could never forget the till

when will i not love you 
shall there be a distant flame 
flickering beyond the warm air
of an indian summer's breeze
 
when will i not love you 
will the sun rest on top
of giant umbrella's dancing
heavenly about sparkling shores

when will i not love you 
shall the tides rise over broken shells
sending the tiny crabs backwards
inside hollow cubbie holes

when will i not love you 
will the large vessels set sail
upon the voss banks of marigolds
ancient goodbyes as new worlds 

gleams about sullen memories 
will heaven and earth meet as one
while the brass trumpets sound
when will i not love you when

GENTLY MY MIND PORTRAYED 
AN EMPTY SADNESS WHILE I'D CRADLED 
THEE NESTLED THOUGHT
LEAVING THE INFAMOUS BONDARIES 

AWAITING THE VIEWING 
OF THOMAS MANN'S QUIET SETTING
BETWEEN THE SOLID STRUCTURES 
OF STILL RUNNING WATER SEEPING
 
OVER THE GOTHIC STONERY 
THAT CARRIED SILENT WISHES 
BENEATH THE FOUNTAINS CORE 
TRAVELING BEYOND VOSS SHORE 

WHILE CRAVING TATTOOED SMILES 
THE UNSEEN GESTURES OF MINES 
THROUGHOUT THE GALLERIES 
OF INDUSTRIAL SOLITUDE 

WHY I'D BEGAN TO OPEN PACKAGES 
OF MEMORIES SAFELY TUCKED AWAY
BESIDE HOPE AND CHARITY 
WHY I FOLLOWED MADNESS 

CREEPING THROUGH THE FOREST AGAIN 
AWAKENING SUDDEN EMOTIONS 
BOTTLED I SUPPOSE GRAVELY 
DANCING TO THE TUNES OF BROKEN 

FOLKLORES TALES WHISPERING 
THE SONG OF POVERTY  CATERING 
TO BAYOUS OF HASTE
WHERE SACRED GROUND OPENS 

EXPOSING THE VALLEY OF DRY BONES 
MY SOUL HAD MASTERED A QUICKENING
BALANCE A MEANINGFUL GATHERING 
HOLDING ON TO COPENHAGENS

SECRET TUNNELS WHERE KOFF
DESIGNED BLUE PRINTS AND PATTERNS 
CAPTURING MY EMPTINESS OF REMEMBERING 
THE WHITE LAB COATS THE  CRYING LAMBS

mastered beyond
the industrial findings
of mi inner self
catered to above
the mistic beliefs 
of folklores dainty crafts
and yet i'm alone here
atlast voss comes into view

Veronica Voss

You are old I am young
You have love I have none.
"Look. Look at those flocks of birds emigrating south! 
They’re escaping with regular wing beats, crying farewell."
Tomorrow would be a good day to die 
Today a good tomorrow
Dying must be strange, nonsense life is strange
We wait for nothing yet nothing will come
I never hoped you would accept an invitation to my farewell party 
We wait for nothing yet nothing will come
Yes, like Fassbinder
Yes, like Veronica Voss

I owe my soul to the company store

Unchain My Heart From Kabilya

Unchain my heart from Kabilya
Unchain my heart, my amazigh son

You make me weep

You left to Algiers

And I dare not cry

You are on your way to Rouiba

Oh amazigh son

You awakened my soul

I am your Kahina, my love

I die a thousand deaths each night

Because you are not with me

I had to help you get to your people

They need you more than me

Know that I love you, Algerian king

Know that I cry for you each night

I love you, my Algerian

Speak to the skies of Algeria 

Tell the skies and the mountains

I love you

I love you
