I have fallen
for the mess
of things
for surprises
have always
been my
weakness
Chilly wind outside.
Cozy alone time.
Breathing curtains;
Mellow sunlight filters through it.

Substituting the earthly noises.
Counting the eternities!

The sky is gathering the tiniest sighs.
Creating a dark cavnvas.
Long awaited rain is about to come!

Reminiscence under the ailing skin.
Boiling inside,
Sudden wave of tears;
Resisted by the deep melancholy.
Just shining, floating in the eyes!

Contemplation breaks at last,
hearing the sweet scream of clouds.
Rainy smell wafts through the air,
There's no point of being loud!

Silent roar of wind spreads across the land.
Remembering the inner gain;
Forgetting the episodes left behind,
now it is time to greet the rain!
She lay,
innocently sleeping.
She gasps,
penetrated deeply.
She cries,
fearing death.
Crimson bed,
She lay.
Inspiration: Chiodos (Band)
Cold rain makes me sick,
snot trickles out from my nose.
Oh please, go away.
My first haiku! / Inspiration: Cloudphaser
The mirrors fog white;
her skin immersed in droplets,
wills me to *succumb.
Haiku #2 / Inspiration: shower water .

Poetic T
Eyelids descend like a guillotine,
decapitating the visual stimuli
my mind engrosses upon in daylight.

Then there is a numbness as the
cascading representations of my
day are all rendered darkened silence.

*"My day is colour, my dreams are black and white,
I'm an artist they say...
I painted my illusions of dreams
I drew on a smile everyday,
I was happy, so it seemed

But my palette ran low
As my colors faded grey
Now my life holds on by a thread
And I'm just fighting just to stay

Because as the days go on,
I let these colors bleed through.
From my paper to my skin,
I'm nothing but red, black, and blue.

I turned myself into a canvas
Trying to describe this strife
But it wasn't beautiful at all
For my paintbrush was a knife

And my paintings are nothing but
empty promises of what we once knew
The only color left in my life
Are my memories of you
We're all artists in our canvas called life. Choose which colors to paint...
I saw....
Two black crystal *****
Rimmed with white
Reflecting an indefinable emotion
Glowing with some intense passion

Riveting  
Entrancing!

Two eyes of oceanic depths
Relaying the most intimate message
“I love you” (?)

So piercing were those eyes
That I couldn’t stand their electric glare
From those eyes, rose the Promethean fire
Glistening like molten gold
At once sending out
The light of a hundred galaxies

From the fire bursting through those eyes
My body was turned into a conflagration
And my soul rippled like fermented wine

An ocean was stirring within
Whose whirls could never again be tamed
In those flooding pools
Let me cast my fishing net!
Wish all my friends a Happy Valentine's Day !

Violet
Far better than any fantasy
Born out of a daydream
Is one made of flesh and blood
With eyes that speak the truth
This is what happens when it is real.
