I pray to God on God's Day even though He gave me 8,000 twinges
of a malignant, neuro-motor tumor that strangles, binds & impinges

i do not live in a world
where i can not
make art

i do not live in a world
where i can not
share my emotions

i do not live in a world
where i can not
create something, anything.

And It's a long way to go

A long night to spend

A long life for sure

So I promise

No matter what

I'd keep your love safe in my Breaths.

let the storm blow past you
as though you're a tree
rooted deep in the earth

have faith in your roots

And I shall mix
my true feelings
with creative words
inside poetic vat of mind.
Churning carefully with spoon like pen
until its flavor is just right.
Blending words together
until they make a splendid porridge for eyes.

Sometimes it shall be hot
with dark words that strike
with spice-like tones perhaps to burn eyes.Β Β 

Other times,
with passionate waves of love
that sooth and provides blanket of light.Β Β 

And when mixture is emptied
upon vellum tablecloth,
I will take a stroll in breath
before once again
I’m inside the kitchen of my mind.

So do come to my table of verse
and taste it to fuel your heart.
It’s not fattening and I offer it freely
welcoming your company.
inspired by Rye Singh Thank you
As light crept into my bedroom window..
I slowly blinked my tired eyes open..
I instantly regretted waking up again without you..
I remembered that this time last year you were with me... In my arms and I remember feeling...
Whole... Complete...
Thanking the heavens for you...

But here I lie once again without you..
Wondering where you are...
And if you're thinking about me...


I wonder if my heart will ever forget to remember.....
That I can't remember to forget you....
