I kept the flame
of faith
burning
In the darkest nights
and before the doubts
could
cast a shadow
I let the fire
of love
scorched my heart
and etched my soul
so when the day
broke
at last
I found
that all
my said and unsaid
prayers were heard...
(Year of the mask)

As I look around
I gasp for air
Millions of people
With a faceless stare

I can’t understand
This world today
Why are people dying
Why does are youth disobey

The world we know
has disappeared
The way we are
Is what we feared

Can’t see family
Can’t see friends
Oh please God
When does it end

Who can we trust
Not a soul today
The ones we looked up to
Has lead us astray

The Lost poet
9/3/20
How nice would it be,  
To dance beneath the stars.
Wails of current couldn't wash me,
Neither could it keep us apart.

The crescent moon,
On edge of the horizon.
Later introducing,
It's impartial luminescence.

How nice would it be,
To sit with you for the last time.
Turning mournings and sadness,
To confetti in the sky.
I’m looking at you
with eyes of reason
Please
stop being evil!
Traveler Tim
Dangling in a thread between darkness and light...

(The heart watches over it's fading memories... )

Drifting clouds play hide and seek in the garden of the crimson sky...

And the shadows wear garments to dance to the melody of the night...

(My mind still juggles the questions to answers and answers to questions it once could not fathom...)

Blackbirds circle the air promising to come back the other day...

The crickets prepare for night gala and the fireflies blow their torches to make less some darkness...

(The spirit inside of me bores over boulevard of the past and future that are a hue of ***** grey)

The setting sun begs me to stop itself from moving away...

And yet...

(My silent unsettling soul ends up settling itself to the impositions of twilight!)
I find something unusual about the twilight hours... Even though the atmosphere is one of beauty... But still it brings me back old memories, deep thoughts, and gloomy feelings...!
