Seema
Glow worms brighten, the
Moonless night, decorating
Itself on some trees
Like twinkling of million stars
Shedding pure eternal bliss

Born
Maybe I'll exhibit an ounce of satisfaction
When I see your heart fumbling on the floor,
On account of all the pain and sorrow it caused

No
Your burden doesn't turn you into a Saint
And no
You will not cloak yourself on hope
You'll not shade the bitterness that comes with hate
you will long for and sail on dejection,
Always looking on dreadfulness of your past tales

Dry your eyes
am talking to you
As days bleed into years
you'll soak up a great deal of agony
your life will be on a constant loop of despair

And then
Only then
You will remember this poem

Choose your standing
Between black and white entrancing
Spelling serendipity with a chance to unfurl
Then be brought to the world
Between straight line and curl
It's the closest you get to real life
If you didn't get it then
You just might do this time

Where the dove may go
Crow follows
In the blackest night
Moon doth shine
When the peppercorn
Falls upon the meadow in the snow
Then duality once again hits the spot

Take a walk
On the wild slide
Slip and uncover
The truths you never know
When you step in line

How the ivory
Shows the irony
When the ebony saves one soul
As the king hurries round one last corner
The queen cuts through to show him to the light

Take a walk
On the wild slide
Slip and uncover truths you never know
If you step in line

As we are one
One love as we are
Believe in the words
It will take you far
Some words to accompany an accordion piece from 2016. Watch your step! ;)

Forgotten"

A thousand times a day

Always trying to persuade
Me that less is more

She left him
desolate
after countless months
left him with depression and
an aching heart
The real issue is that
he still loves her
after she moved on
he didnt
He has to suffer while
shes thriving
Hes stuck with the
emotional pain for her
his longing
for her
love ends too quickly
while heartbreak
lasts too long
(Healing form the heartbreak). Spring 2016
