You move me
like music.

Your voice
sings to me.

Your skin
is a symphony.

Your smile?
An endless coda.

Your wet,
my hard.

A string of intertwining melodies
bound as one,
no interval.

An ostinato
that never leaves
the eternity of
your Springtime breeze.
...while I watch you...
From fascism to fascism,
Through a softer, sly disguise,
Under Satan’s dark baptism,
Tiny worlds meet their demise.

Genocide and degradation,
Artificial to the core,
Spirit’s death and mind’s stagnation—
Drowning deep in filth and gore.

Fear and blind submission lead us,
All foundations cast aside.
From fake plagues to beasts they breed us,
Till the herds are stupefied.

Fools don’t set the night in motion—
They need sheep, not hell unleashed.
Empty heads find full devotion
If their coats are soft and sleek.

But what path is left for moving?
Hell is here, it’s not ahead.
Hellspawn rule us, all-consuming,
Feasting on the souls they bled.

Politics is just a circus,
Where the clowns obey commands.
Truth is drowned in lies on purpose—
Crowds don't bite the guiding hands.

So, they earn their fate in measure,
For the madness owns their breath.
Not for years, but times unmeasured
They have worshipped lies to death.

I am calm as the sea.
People get confused, they claim the sea is wild and free
but the metaphor there they cannot see.
Every time I try to swim I just simply sink
tied down by anchors of my past, or at lest
that's what I think.
I need you so, but it's my fault I let you go,
I set you free 'cause I simply knew we couldn't be.
Your words are haunting my head
late at nights when I'm all alone, I can't stop wishing I was dead.
It was you and me, but never us
and there's nothing more to discuss, I'm left here with open cuts.
So I'll swim in this endless sea of pills and alcohol, and as I'm fading away from here, I'll finally be calm as the sea.

I close my eyes and I see
a tiny golden thread beckoning me.
I want to follow.
I want to go.

I smell the sweetness in the air
as gentle breezes brush my hair.
I want to follow.
I want to go.

My ears fill with melodious song.
It sings to my heart like I belong.
I want to follow.
I want to go.

I step forward, light as air.
Golden whispers everywhere.
I want to follow.
I want to go.

Through tangled woods and silver streams
Drifting softly into dreams.
I want to follow.
I want to go.

A voice so tender calls my name.
Like candlelight, a beckoning flame.
I want to follow.
I want to go.

So I follow, light and free,
Drifting where the thread leads me.
No fear, no weight just golden glow.
I just follow; I let go.

I open my eyes and I see
The world still holding onto me.
I want to run.
But I don’t go.

Shadows whisper, soft yet strong,
Reminding me where I belong.
Though golden light calls from afar
I just stay; I guard my heart.

I can see you staring at me
From afar
Watching my every move
Every word I whisper to myself

I know
You write down
Every name
Of every person
I speak with

I know you are watching me
I feel your eyes


And I hope you know


I will stare back.


I can see you watching me.
Not saying I don't like you.
Your skin, your hair, your eyes...
I'd just love to see your blood,
to taste your sweet demise.

I love your pretty teeth,
shiny, sharp, and red.
But oh they'd be so much sweeter,
tasting them while you were dead.

Darling, little Moon Beam...
shining so wonderfully 'Blue'.
Let me see your Bones.
Let me finally taste you.
cannibalism is a love laguage
I. Autumn came wearing forlorn eyes.
her relief made branches afloat amidst the storm,
yet leaves still fell with memories unmade.

II. Summer came wearing radiant eyes.
her laughter painted tall grasses, rows of  trees and fields of corn.
she smiled so bright sunflowers bloomed,
leaned her way, and mistaken her for sunlight.

III. Spring came yet her eyes remained the same.
although I'd argue, her gaze held winter's weight.
Her lips as tender as the earth kissed after rain,
as her smell sprouted daises in her wake.

IV. Tested by time as seasons unfurled.
throughout autumn's loss, summer's radiance and spring's quiet bloom.
The cold may touch with its chill,
Yet even then,
Winter never came.

The lament of a maiden
Cried to the night sky
"Sweet lover,
I will pluck your heartstrings
And sing my call out to you
Hear that my heart is true:

May the mist carry
My words of love
Swiftly to you
On its vaporous hue
Causing it to arrive
With the morning dew

As I look out on my morn
My lonely heart is torn
If I could send you my arms
Across this large divide
I would embrace you
To be your guide

What starts as a mere mist
Will soon envelop you with
A thread-woven protective bag
Filled with this song.  So,
You can trace your way back
It is on its way to you

Let our love be the compass
That guides you home to me
Following the many lines
Of our love and life on our map
The lines of which can be seen
By only you and only me

Follow the line leads you straight
Across this distance home to me
Across these vast seas remember
Our life is more than a mist,
More than a mere song
Our love will continue on and on
He found me,
in my abandoned castle,
chasing the dead.

Dancing with despair,
in the daylight.
as it had me in chains,
at night.

My fears,
befriended my sins.
And this medley,
got me twirling to its rhythm.

Amidst this ill-lit feast,
I saw a face.
I stopped,
To get a better glimpse of him.

I fell on my knees, weeping.

All this time,
he has been waiting for me.

Each of my teardrops,
turns into a snow-white pearl,
in his hands.

Then,
he gently,
put them in the pockets,
of his holy tunic.
And I looked at him in awe!

He smiled and said,
Pearls made of tears,
always reminds me,
of my strongest warriors,
on earth.
