(2014)
Words without meaning An open mouth seems empty Trying to express Something that dances lightly Forefront of a clouded heart
I pray for the day When my mind is clear Silence, sweet silence Schemes and impulses forgone To live without a shadow
Once my beating heart Matched steel drum lines to-to-toe Teaching metronomes But now my beat has fallen Into syncopated depths
Foggy morning sky Your veil remains untouched by The flags of Autumn How cruel of you to kidnap Such keen keepsakes of your kin
A sudden rain flux A faintly calling whisper To turn off eyelids Yet I cannot shake my dream For just another hour
Seasonal ill’n Ado, ado, soft achoos Cool wind seeps through me
To hide in plain sight Something we all yearn for, but Our differences Do not belong in the mud For mud cannot be polished
Such an empty sky Countless pensive glances are Over and over Swallowed swift, before their time If only I could keep them
A natural fog Too tired to remember Dowsing memories Broken alarm clock weeping Woe be to his faint tick, tock
No words escape me The sun will rise tomorrow Or so I am told
Flickering between The realms of light and shadow Why not close the shades? Sleep’s alluring charm welcomes Despite such early hours!
The darkest of nights It is on these nights I turn To these keys, clicking Fervently beyond reason Behind safely shadowed doors
The mind of a girl That swirling vertex of bright Is unreachable So we put up these steel walls When we could have built a bridge!
To cover the tears Some men will drown their sorrows Some just run away Some even will board their hearths To me? A path of rom-com
The end of the road A distance we all travel Darkness as moonlight Spreads over stone and flowers That litter our path ahead
