What is it that holds you back?
Mistrust?
Probably.
Not sure if your doubt
Is placed in you or me
Truth be told
I’m not ready
So maybe the thing
Holding you back
Might be me
Winter Jun 2023
i never got the chance to say
i love you in the worst way...
the words, they all but reach my lips
but silence rings through my heart eclipse...

i never knew it could hurt so bad
to love someone i could never have...
to martyr myself upon loves blade
pray, i make it out from this grave.

I've known your branches
they hit me with full force,
flowing in the wind
we twisted and locked
eyes, our leaves fell for one
another under the cosmic
path of the sun.

I want your mind... I lied
I really wanted
mind
body &
soul
but now, I don't know...

Perhaps my tree
will twist away with old age
or maybe we'll grow into one?
tree of life...
grow some mushrooms at our
roots and shoot for
the stars...

my stahr...
king of hearts
Winter May 2023
don't lose sight of your
dreams
beyond the clouds
beyond the memories
within the Akash
within the DNA seams
as above
so below
for any who care to listen
Winter Apr 2023
The day is as majestic as the dawn
In sleep, I lay wide awake
To exist without the weight of the world
In a dream within a dream
The past drifts by like clouds
No longer in childhood
But in love - for a season.
each line a new title

If her eyes were
the gateway to her soul,
then her heart is a
picket fence ideal of our love.

When I cannot be
what she needs from me
I follow her into
her wildest dreams,
where our electricity
lives only as a memory.

'She loves me' she said
Je t'aime - I can't reply
So instead,
choke me until I'm dead
re-wire my soul
and when I wake...

I might be able to love you
the way you want me to.
Winter Jan 2022
28 days pass by...
when the mist shadowing my mind
slowly disappears
into the horizon of exile.

A thousand souls of memories,
your silent longing,
my twisted angst, pray
stay dead.

Then my heartstrings
play a reincarnation song,
no longer holding onto our
broken pieces, now buried.

28 days pass by...
my eyes open again.
