Fireworks!!

I watch the fireworks
Dancing away in the sky
Pinks blues greens reds
Fireworks dancing with the music
They sing "watch me, watch me"
And i do, i am mesmerised
What sweet syncronising
I catch myself dancing
With the fireworks
I am on cloud 9
They're still going
So much energy
So much passion
Twirling twirling
Shooting up high
They light the sky
Just like the stars
Blue purple yellow orange
Sweet sweet harmony
They are alive
The sky is alive
I am alive
I am dancing away
To the beat of the fireworks
They have the sky on fire
The suns turned off its light
And i am mesmerised with
The fireworks that have lit up
The dark with their own lights
Dancing away in their own world
Wow! The patterns!
The colours combine
Into one huge explosion
Beauty at its peak
Its brought the world together
They are one like the fireworks
Dancing hand in hand
Laughing singing dancing away
They are one
My other children

My children are sleeping
Warm and snug in their beds
Sweet slumber, they dream away
Their gentle soothing breaths
Have my heart at peace
My children are asleep
Safe and sound in their beds
No worries no hassle no war
Just sweet sweet sleep
They dream of sunshine
And flowers and beautiful colours
They dream of beauties of this world
Then there are my other children
My children born of different mothers
Bless their tiny eyes, they cant sleep
They have no bed to keep them warm
Theres an empty space where a sister or a brother should have been
Their mother lies awake
Fearing for their safety
Scared for their future, if they have one
Their mother who loves her children
Just like me
A mother whose heart screams at this world to give them justice
Give them quiet, give some peace
These children are having nightmares
Of the realities of this world

The magnificent desert landscape
An exploration of ancient history
Your might lighted years ago
Rocky stones,red sands and cliffs
I strayed in your moon-like nature
The wind blew and I lost a breath
Squeezed in the deepest cave
Sipped and splashed the whisky
Mused by the silence you offered
The sandstone eroded and I gasped
The whole being lifted and freed
A Jordan beauty, my pleasant saviour
I forgot of my very own existence
An experience, the reflective moment
As the stars dipped on my sight
You sparked like a longed for knight
The feral me stranded on the desert depths
Stepping the elevated rocks to seek freedom
Stuck in the desert for few days with no phone or internet connection. If you wondered where I dissapered to!Glad to be back...
Awkward silence

Awkward silences
Where i am angry
And your ego is in the way
Silences where we want to talk
But your too proud to say "sorry"
Same bed but we are miles apart
Where i wait for you
To run your fingers through my hair
Like usual i wait for you
To help me fall asleep
But your miles away
Too proud to make the first move
'She'll get over it'
The thought is in your head
Maybe i will
But still it would be nice to see
You care
Waiting in awkward silence
I reach  
into you
searching for
something familiar

We have forgotten
we were
once inseparable

All of us
collectively
singular
rising out of  
the great expanse

We’ll live again
like the stars
born again
on the
horizon
We are stardust.
And they can hunt,
They can smile.
I've seen that brunt,
Alone and hurt passing through that aisle.

And I can see their appeal,
I know what they feel.
I've seen that disguise,
They cry until they dries.

And they can hide,
To protect others life.
I've seen that side,
The side that strife.

And I never want them to change,
I've tried and I've failed.
I'm in this derange,
Without her, how could they've inhaled.

"Though lover's brain, and then they dream of love,",
"My love thou art, my love I think".
Stop this push and shove,
I think it's time to make a brink.
The two lines in quotations are by William Shakespeare
