…………...
You are a star
My sky is empty and shallow
But there you are; Glittering like a firecracker
The sun echoes off you and radiant colors fill my sight
You are a diamond . I have never seen anything so beautiful
My treasure and my love . Something I will forever hold close
——MY CHERISHED DIAMOND——
My passion burns endlessly .  A fire, roaring brightly in my heart
Your crystalline mask frame’s the universe’s grace; a polished allure
A reflection of all my wishes .  A desire to be without restraint
Now come forth; As we stumble, plummet, and descend
A gem of its own world . Fleeting lights dance
Converging together to create one song
A world of nonsensical wonder
Showering your splendor
On all that can
See
……………

She was the sun
A candle amongst the darkness
But even that warmth
Eventually fades away

Towers of truth once surrounded us
A cold breeze fills the air
As you walk down these streets
You are lost
In the labyrinth of these days
Red ash bricks
Squeaking horns
In the midst, it is
Surrounded by an Oasis of trees
You are alone now
Standing in front of this empty pit of darkness
"Toss a coin!" You can still hear that voice from a long time ago
As long as these grey hairs cover your head, you wont forget
You take a dime from your pocket book
And down it goes
Your last gift to her
And then the world is gone
And darkness shrouds your thoughts
As you slip away from reality

-In memory of 9/11-

You strum a melody
A lonely soul in the dark
It wishes for a new chance
There it comes
A knight in shining armor
Your melody

What are the chances?

Sadness. Anxiety. Anger
A flurry of emotions crosses your mind
You brick up a wall
You feint surprise
Your smile is fake
But one day
It will all come crashing down
Water floods
The dam breaks
And your heartthrobs
By the sound of an arrow puncturing the skin
The feeling of your mother's hand losing warmth
The sight of a cat bleeding out on the street
The memory of your dad calling your name
Slowly, one by one they go
Until you're finally left
With the words "I have something to tell you."

Towers of knowledge surround you
You are in a labyrinth
Courage builds up
Fear disappears
You are ready to do what you must
To get out of this lonely world
Fate will tell.
The Heavens guide you
So don't lose hope.
It will find you, someday

There is a light
It vibrates around you
It casts a spell over you
You find yourself back in time
Music builds up
You find yourself walking on glass made of thin ice
You explore this adventure with no bounds
Then you wake up
And realize the limits of reality.
But you'll always remember that light

A deer trots
The wolf is in crouch
Blood stains the snow
The predators are now on the loose
Winter is coming

Around you, lights flicker
There is only darkness in this cold night
But one by one
A tree lights
A clock strikes
In front of you, A new hope has started

The seeds of warmth flow around you
In utter bliss, you are
You open your eyes and see a miracle

They say sticks and stones can break bones
But words could never hurt more
The melody sings
It soothes
It calms
And a flicker of hope resurfaces in your heart
Hand in hand
You smile
You laugh
Spring has finally come

Shock

The smell of blood is on the air
You feel nothing
You are numb
As if the two worlds collide
And you're stuck in between
You reach out a hand
To no prevail
The secrets in your heart come out
Along with the fears and angers of acceptance

Grief

A snowy blizzard runs through the forest.
It rises
It searches
It eats
You get lost in its cold warmth
You become one with it
Until you’re found, heart ablaze
With the people who love you
A snowy blizzard dies in a forest filled with sadness and tears

Depression

You can hear her voice in the air
You can feel her holding your hand
She is beside you in spirit
Always watching
But it’s not enough
You fall deeper
You can’t get out
You’re trapped all alone; Entranced
By the shadows of guilt and despair


Anger

The fires burn all around us
We yelp
We scare
We frighten
But to no use it is
It burns
It thickens
It smokes
Till the point, we cannot bear
It cascades like lava and creates a big bang!
The fires are alive still to this day

Acceptance

There is a rise in your step
You take a leap of faith
As if you are soaring
The melody of pain still hums behind you
Acting as if a push
To become a better man
The angers and fears of acceptance
Have now disappeared

The flame burns
The smoke enthralls
You cough
You suffer
You die
Your existence is without value
Your life without a heart
No one will ever know you inside this cold lonely dark
