Dark days brought me here,
ragged and blown I stand within the devices of my fate
My roaring mouth wide, yet silent
against the cacophonous background. Brittle now, this heart of splendour
as flesh is drawn from parchment bones
revealing only words, their rhythms forever etched into my echo.

piece by piece
you break her
and she becomes
nothing.

midnight moon wears full sun-mask
peering through cloud of oyster pearl
as stars whisper their silent arcs
in shells of distant silver whorls

Sun and stars..
Moonbeam scars...
Light of the night..
Is my darkness sight..

Under pale silver false sun..
The midnight run...
Hunting for your soul..
In pockets of moon glow..

I felt your lips on my neck..
Ghostly chills leave behind light specks...
Only it was not me looking for you all along..
But you looking for me in this ghostly song..
Who is the Ghost?

Share your thoughts with those
Who know the value of diamonds

Read between the lines.






You’d find that the words
left unwritten
would scream
the loudest.

Sometimes
Any opportunity comes our way
In disguise of a terribly dark face,
But as we hug it humbly
It smiles and lives with us.

Anger is a sharp knife
That cuts our happiness as if it's the cake

I sometimes stop just to catch up..
To the beauty I have been missing..
Here in front of me..

The clouds have turned into rain..
It matches the emotions on your face..
But your hope for sunlight never fades..

I have to go with rain..
And you with the sun..
For I am the storm and you are the clear day..

If I stay to long the creeks become rivers..
And the rivers become lakes..
I have to move on before I drown everything..

I leave behind this rainbow for you..
Its a storm's goodbye..
Enjoy the colors among the dark blue sky..
It can't rain forever....

Sounds of souls intertwined
  I'll step this way to you
Torn from my heart
  to write love new
Painting your scars
  along the sky

Raging fires run through
  your veins
Singeing my skin
with your touch

Yet,
  from this fire, there is a glow
  to warm the cold in me

And yet,
  from this star, there is a shine
  to bring a light
  to the dark in you

  Solar clouds in this depth of moonlight
  bring questions burning in me.

I stand here alone
With a head full of voices
Perfect imbalance

Misplaced pride against these pages
High above the throne of all nebulas
open to the senses
true to the stars
a longing for you

The faint smell of incense
casting shadows on my soul
chanting incantations
next to the soft glow
of solar flames
burning down
my memories

Medications running out
Now all I have is you

Burning daylight
smoking on it's embers
a thoughtful reminder of my king
