Poem
Burden
the constant fear
of being a burden
foremost to thyself

Only To
I have not been spending
A lifetime in nurturing
Slender equilibrium
From bare ashesOnly to stay hidden;
Only to be humble.

Hurling Stones
It’s easy to interpret what you see ahead;
Not at all if it’s what you picture in your head.
That protruding shadow inducing desolation,
Feeding and growing above all expectation;
About to prevail upon your fragile bones,
With you striving to endure against its hurling stones.

(Lately, I’ve been digging Morse code.)
Never
Never put
hope and
recognition
in the arms
of a distant
embrace.(It brings naught
but disappointment,
while the other half
– abstained.)

Ethereal
A love that is
ethereal.
© living in verses
(A simple verse synthesizing the beauty in falling love with small and delicate details that don’t seem to belong to this world from how singular they are; in other words, falling in love with the ethereal.)
Limpid Whispers
Deeply in love
with the purity
of limpid whispers
and the soft echoing
of a timid heartbeat
that desperately tries
to stand aloof.

Back on track –
Unstoppable.

Nothing but a distant memory
Of the stranger that resembled me.
