Poetica

Authored: July 1, 2017 Listen hereSince you went awayWith eyes wanting anotherI should’ve knownYou left me to dreamAway.A march of lonely dreamsAlone.You went awayDoes it feel the same way for you?With those eyes of yours seeking more?Won’t you look back at what you have doneWith flames for irises in your eyes.It’s okay.You left me with…

Authored: June 28, 2017 I am adrift on a dark highway in the middle of nowhereIt is night and the only light is the multitude of starsAnd the crescent of a pale moonA light in the dark, above me, high beyond reach.Everyone’s journey is their ownEven the broken and the wounded need their own journeyEach…

Authored: June 28, 2017 I awoke to a deep silenceNo noise, a cacophony of sheer silenceImmense and yet unrealI looked out of the window and saw an empty streetWithout people, cars strewn and doors left openNo people walking the pavementsInsoluble silence pervading the senses.I walked the streets of my suburbAnd found for company the askance…

Authored: June 27, 2017 The shroud has fallen from my eyesI no longer can hope for friendship if one cannot show itWithin supplication and defeat I truly found myselfI let you go and bade you wellWhat we shared once was no more.We were no longer lovers or acquaintances or friendsYou had moved onSo, I separated…

Authored: June 18, 2017 Inside my mindA restless Ocean churnsEach wave is discord within the synapsesWhere once the ocean was clear and stillNow awash with whitecaps and tumult.On each wave a memory starts to break upA fantasy is broken down by the reality of nowAn immense sadnessDescending on the oceanUnderneath the wavesThe thought of you…

Authored: June 18, 2017 A tapestry of rusty hues greets mine eyes,rolls engulfing all the hills set against gray skies.Here I go with hope I’ll grow,into a man that’s wise.Let loose my sorrows and dreams for tomorrow,amidst my smoky sighs.

Authored: June 18, 2017 You walked along the beach that late afternoonThe light was fading, and the ghosts were whisperingTheir whispers carried in the windThere is a reflection in your mindOf the past, another life, another timeThose words once trueNow are empty shells of once was and had been.The ghosts feed on sadness and the…

Authored: June 16, 2017 A poignant reflectionCast aside by shadowI wondered….Bad choices in my past hinder meThey haunt me nowLike shadows surrounding me.We always think there is going to be more timeUntil the last heartbeatThe last inhale of airUntil we are a memory to you.A blinding blasphemyA never-ending itchYou wondered….You saw me in the pits…

Authored: June 16, 2017 Watch the fronds disentangle from the flowerA fading light as oceans darkenGraceless beauty disjointed and absolvedAlone, a beckoning destruction of soulIt fades, fading absolution, constructs dissolve.Under the Sycamore tree I lieWatching the Sun setAnd ending, synapses fire aloof.A darkness envelopes meYour love was a masqueradeA blanket of unfathomable bleakness.This sickness that…

Authored: June 15, 2017 Far over from these mountains, I see her facehazy and crystal clear at the same time, it struck meI looked onto these clouds, for a traceto find her beauty and sense, like a keya key that would unlock my entire world just for her sakea passage through her soul into me.Amidst…
