than the sharpest
of knives.
Love will not survive
if not accompanied by trust.
Troubled soul
Proclivities
Loneliness
Pretty please

The Pride And The Longing

One man’s ‘Old Days’
another man’s ‘New’
Chasing a memory
the pilgrim is due

One reminisces
what one only schemes
The pride and the longing
— two sides of a dream

Shades Of Gray

Mixing wheat
with the chaff
The good
with the bad
In shadings
of gray
The truth
finds a home

Taking shape
from the whole
When shunning
both ends
Polarity’s
vanish
And clarity
— shown

The city I live in is notorious
For timeslips
Walk round the wrong corner
And you'll be partying
With the Incas
Ah that doesn't work
Cos it time
Not space
I just think
I liked the rhyme
But even that's a disgrace
Does that happen to you?
In the middle of a ditty
You've got a direction
You want to go in
But the delivery
Gets all ******.

Our eyes met that gloomy day,
And I immediately knew
It had been another time another place
I had always loved you

Lives we lived together
Spanning since the dawn of time
Energy of us tethered
Two souls intertwined.

Soulmates don't always work out as planned
Life gets in the way.
Things just aren't so grand
And our path isn't paved.

Is it wrong to crave a soul?
Is it wrong to lust for the past?
And to long for someone you've always known?
Wishing love forever lasts.
