You said my words are magic
and I smiled while I cried
because my words come from
shattered heart
and bleeding soul.
Some of the great poetry comes from broken souls.

halioth
i know a thing or two
about being immune

shutting off feelings,
acting amused

dozing to the sun
awaking to the moon



i know a thing or two
about happiness and doom

stirred in one cup,
served for two

strapping bandages
covering abuse

If you gave me a gentle push,
I'll travel further.
If you gave me a gentle push,
I'll travel faster.
If you gave me a gentle push,
I'll travel quicker.
Give me a headstart in life

Help...
I fell deep into my mind again.
suffocating,
as I  listen to the whispers of the red eyed.
Help...
I hated myself again; face and body.
suffocating,
when is this going to end.
Help...
I need help
I'm sad again.
Relapse again

Poetry is Mona Lisa,
timeless,
alive,
beautiful, mysterious and sometimes chaotic,

Poetry is the garden of secret,
full of craved trees with memories
of yesterday, today or tomorrow,
memories of dancing to the joyous melody in the living room
or memories of weeping due to sinking to the bottom of the ocean.

Poetry is the purple hand
touching the haggard and joyous souls,
towering hearts on cold dark night and sunny loud night,

Poetry is a diary
to souls impotent to pour the spectrum
of colors in the heart and mind
onto blank paper.
this is what poetry means to me

What's scary?

What's scary
is when you don't feel happy;
you can't smile under the azure sky.

What's scary
is when you see all the skies are forever grey;
you can't taste the sweet in your favorite chocolate.

What's scary
is when you look into the mirror
and you can see
your eyes are empty.
