Some hours ago, I almost died
I was thinking in moments while on the motorbike
There was not much to do but scream Jesus and hope
while hoping for the best in a worst situation
I lay on the tarmac after already being hit
still in shock, I stood up
My family was under the bus, the tyres almost at her legs
There was not much to do but be silent and hope
The bus stopped just in time
I was glad,
I did not know what to do next
People from the bus came to my aid, told me to sit
For some reason, I did not want to obey but i did
As I continued my journey
could not stop thinking that I almost died.

an ember glides,
an ember glows,
the ember's gone.
a beautiful weaving knot of
emotion, desire, despair and
freedom.

To live is to feel.

You and I , sitting together

Yet , stars looks so far

Just like us

Stars and Moon kept look each other

If you ask me to tell you the truth ,

I will tell you to stay with me

oh,
how the tragedy speaks for itself with me in its arms.
It speaks about vile i let in and followed through life.
It gushes on given blood to a vampire It applauds me,
For venturing in woods,
Fighting with wolves,
shedding skin off for a family of cruels,
It repeats my sins over my dead body to make sure i remain buried.
I've lived in pages others skim through,
Pages where ink is bruised too,
all along i've been in a story that must be abolished through and through.
I could've been a sonnet of love,
memerising everyone to above,
yearning, longing for the ones i love
i gave myself to the above.
The times passed between my fingers,
As steadily sand passes through,
all alone i whisper
Will the life regret me too?
A BIRTH

Twelve hours in velvet dark
I waited for your shaft
to penetrate my channel of desire
birthing purity and long lashes

You came without a doubt
Acacia branches making curtains
their feet digging deep for
the numinosity of life

Wisdom of Time feeding a
******* into pink moistness
Deeply hidden thorns created
a serpent circle of protection

Descent spiralled into eardrums
eyeballs, silently swirling light
dividing with space, minerals
unfolding with Earth’s rhythm

Her sister shed joyful tears
for her soft arched feet
whilst ***** petals fell
for dainty fingers curling

As missionary I buried a sticky
cord beneath Acacia
Understood the elixir of truth and
your departure into shadows

Take a look  at me before you go
When did I ever  ask to hug me

I haven't come today to talk to you
Now try to win against me

I, I’ve,
I, I’ve—

I’ve dug a grave
Deep into the ground
Filled with hail and rain
And foul

Words that burrow
Further
Than any other
Worm

Than any other
Word

Painted portraits
Contorted faces
They’re laced
With malice
And filled
With hatred

The pictures of the
Dead
They stare
Straight ahead

No goal
In mind
No destination
In sight

When they give their
Final bow
How’s the world to
Spin around

When the weight befalls
A fallen tapestry
Without a sound

Every step you take
Is disturbance
And breaking of the
Silence

The wake

That resides
With
The fallen,
The silent,
The gone.

An unstoppable ancient cyclone should hold man's dreams accountable, an eternal flame if the soul, already restless to the core, wanted to flicker; perhaps no one and nothing has time to wait with dignity, and await the order of the final tests. The Janus shadow of sleeping jellyfish creeps through our rusty coils, when man can no longer possess the ability to make his active shrinking, hazelnut-brain remember - afraid - perhaps it will be swallowed up by the insidious vibration-wave of self-destructive waves.

Spread fingers can no longer, tremblingly, embrace the loyalty of the Universe, to which they once swore with the word of the heart according to the laws of mortals. The small, frayed erosion of the body has been lurking helplessly for thirty or so years and does not ask, it only acts. Behind the person's back, old love-intoxications, eternal friendships guarded with fear, when everything seemed crystal clear and perhaps even simpler than it does now, still glow like a fading ember; the continuously drifting Time simultaneously wears, carves, shapes and if the person foolishly does not pay attention at all, what could never have been born is destroyed, that the attractive ara - at that time - did not want a sweetly babbling baby because of her bikini line.

As a mortal - even so -, he has cheated himself a lot, because he has been constantly sobered by the fierce series of judgment days; if necessary, if not for the last time, the merciless, brutal whip of Reality can strike him at any time. A restless, storm-beaten soul cannot rest in peace and quiet; It must dismantle itself, as a supposedly solid cell-molecule, which is being squeezed with increasingly ruthless executioner-like rigidity by the fetters of the body's diseases.
