In the tapestry of existence,  

where shadows dance

upon
    the
      threads
                 of
                     time,  

we find ourselves,  

woven into the fabric of
            our
                        days,  
each s t i t c h a whisper

of what was.

Oh, the heart, a vessel of longing,  

bears the weight of unspoken sorrows
 
and in the silence of reflection
 
the truth lies h i d d e n, 
 
beneath layers of

                    forgotten

                                          dreams.

Embrace the surrender,  

for in

                           letting

                                                  go,

we find the essence,
  
the sacred truth of our being, 
 
unadorned by the judgments of the past,  

freed from the chains of despair.

In the eclipse of our pain
 
the light may seem distant, 
 
yet within the                                darkness
 
wisdom stirs,  

a gentle reminder of

                                                               ­          resilience.

Thus, we walk the path anew,
  
not as prisoners of memory

but as
                  pilgrims
                                       of
                                                     understanding, 
 
finding beauty in the scars,  

and grace in the

                                    journey

                                                           of

                                                               ­             becoming.
& the weekend begins, time to rest as I am drained in every sense, have a great one my fellow poets...

The light hits my skin different
the sun would never
leave behind traces of love
I have yet to see the same artistic expression
during the day
This contrast
leaves blisters on my hands
Waking up under a spell
my feet hurt
Photographic memories of you
make love
to my soul  
Full of dreary absence
and dozy
my large tears brim
Let them fall
Splash

By the rose’s touch, may love arise,  
A glowing light beneath soft skies.  
In every heart, may it remain,  
A timeless flame that knows no pain.

Man
I cannot tell you
The remedy to your emptiness,
But I can share with you
That of a treatment of mine.
It can be hearing of progress
On any front
In the forms of beautiful ideas
And new expressions,
The world of us humans.
Of newfound love
In many kinds of companionship
Whether by person or by animal,
Or even by plant.
Of new discovery
Which betters our understanding
About the fundamentals of the universe,
Like walking in the wild;
Cherishing all that is natural.

Being a humble observer
In the courts of law
Under honorable nature.

Just by being an animal.
What better manger is not a freer forest?
