Mango Colored Skies

Mango colored skies,
kisses away
the nightly breath
of the evenings sigh.

Sugary sprinkles scatter into the sky,
as the stars begin to rise and fall.

Tonight I will learn to fly,
like a star my soul will zoom on by.

Coffee In Abstract

Mornings light beams,
in fragments gleam
on the surface
of the dark liquid
inside my mug.

This is where the sun lives,
it blooms within a coffee bean.
When it touches my tongue,
it engulfs my soul
with its golden beam.

Slowly I become free
from my dreams.

Into the Fall

Be still my beating heart, leave no empty spaces in between us. We like the flowers in spring bloom and grow, although winter always freezes our nook, before her prance slowly fall brings her gowns of color to blanket our land with beautiful auburns and browns.

Sadness

With cold tears
that stain my cheeks,
a kiss from sadness
turned them into lost dreams.

As I am lost,
walking these halls
of forgotten memories.
I became like the rose
on a winter’s day,
I froze.

With sadness as my friend,
he sat and cried with me.
Sadness was there
when no one cared for me.
