the phases of moon devoir every night
I get more far away,
these days repeating themselves,
a miser might know better,
collective thieves,
and the charmers of the night,
just want to be better than yesterday,
yet the undeservings won,
but till when, until then
so many questions have been asked,
so many have got unanswered,
can this be called crescent
perhaps I hope it makes sense.
every night I sleep knowing I'll be hopeful in morning but I do know the truth.

we are gathered here today to ignore the empty seat next to me
i tell myself this is how it’s meant to be
laughter passes between the four of us, we’re all reminiscing
all except the one that’s missing
isn’t this peace more than enough?
is anyone going to call us on our bluff?
the vacant chair looms in the dark and my brother’s question brings it to life
                    why did you ask for a table of five?
suddenly I feel small in my seat
i succumb to a tense smile, simple and bittersweet
                     a force of habit, my fault
one by one, we halt
and stare
at the bare
and lonely chair.
this one's for my brother, the one who's no longer here-

Can we be uncertain yet optimistic?
Hugs are passion personified gently.
Seize your moments as you do your days.
Believe with your heart.
Touch with your soul.
See with your ears.
Feel with your eyes.
Know that change takes time to work through though it seems an instant
Have no expectations and just journey on towards your imagination
Hoping you will find a creative, sensitive, and sophisticated environment
Look for me there because that is where I will be found

In the darkness without the light
My eyes adjust to give me sight
But is the image that I think I see
A reflection from an old memory
I focus hard to try and clear my vision
And erase my mind from this indecision
I think I know what lies ahead
There's a mental picture in my head
But when the lights come back on
The object I thought was there, has gone
Just an empty room without anything there
Except a confused mind and a vacant stare.

Concepts can be expressed in many ways; and are mostly explored using words, yet words convey the smallest fraction of our true thoughts and feelings.
Perhaps the limitation of language is why I love art and music so ? they are the perfect compliment to a *** of tea.
