The Door to My Heart, was left open.
To a Woman, I had given the Key.
She never found, what She was looking for
and soon returned it, back to Me.
I held back Memories of Her.
The moment She decided to Part
and nestled them, Safe and Secretly.
In the corner of My Heart.
I drew Her Picture in My Mind.
A Picture which I could never Erase
and painted the Picture, in My Heart
with Colours no one could Replace.
Each Night, I played the Moon to Her
and was building Her, a Mansion on Mars.
I kept building My Castles in the air,
While She chased all the Stars.

you look at what you look at
i look at the stars
both essential minds of people
we are

a song of joy or sadness
traveling in time
there is a moment of dying
we are

hold the moment
make things happen
draw it slow and slower
make it repeat
give this a breath, and so
live in now, live in this moment.


dear, time is elusive wanderer
and often a deciever,
dont be sure to let it elaps
and it's tragic too, you cant embrace it for forever

I do miss the late-night phone call,
let the night drive us to the stars,
Woke up with morning light of sun rise
all those laughs and giggles,
Going back home with a smile,
Sometimes I don't want to say goodbye.
As every moment I treasure the most,
Remain vividly in my memories,
Slowly, my heart dies,
Let myself soak in feeling blue,
The bottomless abyss swallow me whole,
This beautiful world I used to see
It doesnt seems it used to be,

The moon amidst
the celebrations of stars
still in its proverbial stance
only the eye no fingers!

If there ever a moment of flower
let it be today the rose
in the tips of the fingers!

Are you someones moment in time?

Or their

Eternity?
Be both

Glittering
Fractured
Fractals

Shimmering in all
The wrong
Places.

Time.
Time is non-existent
How I wish it would

Rip me from this moment
This agonizing
Tormenting moment.

Then it's over
As quickly as I could blink
Gone.

Nothing left but this
Lifeless heart
I once called Home.

It's only in that moment
Can I see you
Clearly.

Continued visitations
Continually mar
This heavy heart.

Yet

Every whisper, utterance,
Intrusion
Brings me here.

As if summoned
Just to endure
Pain.

Tears welling
Through already puffy eyes
I cast another look.

Through the cascading
Fragments
Of this broken reality

Only to peer at a face of a stranger
Distorted by resentment, anguish
Heartache.

Contained no longer
Time crashes like a wave
Leaving me alone.

Glittering
Fractured
Fractals

Shimmering pieces
That once contained a dream
Scattered at my feet

I will not conform
Contort myself in a cage
I'll fly, arms outstretched.
M Solav Jan 2023
The poetry of thoughts shines despite the deceit
That lies beyond the kingdom of the forgotten
For it is otherwise shackled by the extraneous resolve
To bind it to mortal forms with the cross of the sheet

And the hammer of the pen.

From this mere p*rversion one can't help but marvel
At the speed upon which we surrender to defeat
And stand ready to relinquish newfound heavens
For the sloppy aesthetics of poetry and prose

And the fate it can't but meet.

For we walk alone on the quicksand of time
And it swallows us whole before we dare speak
So breathe the fresh air before it goes stale
And let every moment be a chance to exist

For it is swaying on the edge.

I will spend as much time necessary
Whole life if that is how long it takes
Missing out on things while you miss me
You are worth longing
Persistence
Heartaches

My formless fear grows in size each day
It lives inside
Keeping cursed
Moment is coming for you to be taken away
If it was me I have faith you'd stay through the worst
