Pearls Before Glass

...Behind the facade, angry gnashing of white,
Eyes filled with hatred as they flash past the plea,
Locking steel shovels powered by thew and by might,
Throw love's trust like freed pearls into the n...

Accepted

...How your smile can illuminate

How brightly you shine 

How easily purchased has been,

The lie behind the eyes,

Of the statue,

Standing tall,

Rooted firmly in hypocrisy.

 

How r...

Air Breathed In, Thick With Sorrow

...Air breathed in, thick with sorrow,
The night too dense with pain,
This sunrise barely compensates,
For battles fought in vain.
 
Care has taken up its place,
Behind her weary brow,
Drowning o...

Dream

...Speak not of glorious visions past. 
The dark remorse of woe 
into the nightly splendour fades, 
Where now, I too must go.

Weep not the tears of duty here, 
Nor utter words withheld 
That may...

Love She Now Can Ill Afford

...Love she now can ill afford 
And strength, her pride won't borrow, 
She finds no crime in letting go, 
Of dreams knit with her sorrow.

Her fire is but a ghostly glow, 
Void of the will to try,...

Light In the Window

...Having played hard all day, the dusk now sets in, 
A time to re-join with her kith and her kin. 
But today she will not be afforded that lot, 
For the souls she now dwells with, her family are not...

Conduct

...Be fluid in honesty, 
Transparent in truth, 
Don't yield to hypocrisy, 
Your morals since youth.

Unwavering compassion, 
Show all those in need, 
Forever remember, 
The price paid for greed....

The Gift

...Silently falls the crystalized mist, 
Sparkling wonders on this solstice eve, 
Backdrop for celestial candles, a sky, 
Of soundless depth, and velvet ease,

The soft glowing hearts of those who await...

Captivity's Freedom

...Hope seeks to breathe beyond the walls, 
Laboured and empty the effort falls, 
Her heart, recanting passion's song- 
Beats wildly as though to right a wrong. 

Could it be she lives to weep 
Ov...

Warning Flashes

...Lightning strikes without a 
warning, 
Unable to cause the heart to 
pound, 
A word, a touch, have sped the 
pulse, 
While violence rages all 
around. 

The bird has learned a song it 
hear...

Broken

...Pressing in the darkness seeks,
To quell the Hope that burns inside,
Confusion sends the message loud,
Love will die along with pride.
 
Lord, why is pain the only path,
From it's first beat, t...

Untitled

...The scent of promise in the air, 
That winter soon will fly. 
Birds sing with overflowing hearts, 
Beneath an azure sky.

Blindly stillness seeks it's place,

Silence

...Believing the heart to be true to it's calling, 
While wrapping it safely in caution's warm quilt, 
Flying too close to the flame that entrances,
