I throw my anchor upon the shore of grief and let the waves crash into me, one after the other I cling onto brighter skies and latch onto greater fates, yet the skin only grows withered. Even in fleeting rests, the calm deceives me — steels my goodbyes. Loss after loss, I let the winds carry my belated wishes. My face towards the heavens, my anchor fouled.

At the shore of grief
Purple was the grass And purple were the veins that reached from my tips to the darkest of my nightmares, more vivid than the scars that clawed at my skin.

Visions In The Night
I drew a barrier in the sand A boundary To my curious senses A limit To my driven desires A lock On my hopeful ambition

Barrier
If you stare long enough Your skin Shall dazzle in gold As the green spirits grow jaded. And as the shy buds turn crimson, Your cheeks too Shall bloom vibrantly. If you stare deep enough Your horrors might fade into shadows As nature blends into the light. And as the garden blurs into a haze, Your scars too might disappear

A trick under the sun
Breathe, through the gentle waves of summer heat And let the sea breeze take your sorrow. Strip, from the dried skins of pungent lies and let the soothing jasmine coat your mind. Smile, to the tender rays of sunlight and let the bird tunes calm your cries. Stay, in the calm embrace of your bent olive tree ‘Till your life gains meaning.

The enchantement
In the pure silence a new world rose. Glorious Riding high waves into red infinity. The colors of nature Come to life Lustrous Rising gracefully into my sanctuary. The fresh grass curls around my feet tying me close. The playful tunes of the nightingale Enchant me. The seductive smell of wild lavender lures me where I wish to be. Where the indigo sky makes love to the sea Where the dancing wind plays the olive's leaves And the jasmines' lullaby Sends me to sleep.

At Sunrise
I am slipping below. My spirit floats in the river Shattered. I am walking slow. over spread ashes of my burned-down hope. Away from the mayhem from the senseless noise I'll march along my dying ego. Towards the open edge Towards the certain fall. I'll follow the last piece of my soul. Powerless I'll watch my dream crash into the waterfall.

The hopeless flow
When fake skin is shed and you know your truth. When all fea ris gone and you're at peace with you. When your wings are spread and you're lost in no rules. You'll find us: carried in the moment making it through singing to life, loving it. Join us, the beautiful youth.

Prophecy
Whirlwinds, Rainbows and hurricanes. Sunlight through the blackest clouds. Cherry blossoms, splashed on waves A kiss of life A touch of your hand.

How love feels
Every time I hold the pen, I am drowned in this feeling. My head is overwhelmed by a storm of words, lacking all meaning, all sense. I try to write down any idea, but this senseless logic spinning inside is beyond my understanding. As if this brain was not my own, I feel lost. I'm tired of straying aimlessly in my thoughts, so I abandon all to this overflowing emotion. My hand is numb, my eyes blurred in this confusion, and my head slowly drained of all reason. As if this body was not my own, I feel lost. When the storm finally passes, I drop the pen carved in my hand. My brain is worn out, empty. All I can see is a crumbled, blank, page eating me alive. I am no longer my own. I am lost.
