The night was cold and dark
Heavy rain in the park and
A lost boy couldn't sleep
With a sigh and a fright
He wished for the sunlight
Then counted sheep in his sleep.
Dark Night
I swirl the stress, turn
pirouette in my veins.
It is fuel for my fire.
I breathe in, out.
shallow,
yet crisp
the smell of burning
leaves on a brisk
autumn day.


I am the flame,
won't you put
me out?

To hate
someone
is to
heave a
thousand
mountains
with bare
palmer
creases.
It is to sip
poison
first, just
to test
its sting,
it is to
fall
into a
field
of thistles
  banging'.

The sun
says nothing,
yet the
world
answers-
warbling,
chirring,
tweeting.
The sun opens
me like a door
each day and
the moon is
my final exit-
and between
these two
i'm kept.
It was beneficial -
I was young and foolish
life's basic lessons I acquired
the better became my future

the world is never
as one would conceive
much deception does loom
and cause widespread grief

I was foolish and young
wise words from none did I receive
my way I had to find over time
but with experience in well-living I did succeed
