My love it runs deep, carving paths through tiny crevices,
under the surface, within.
It cascades over jagged edges, smoothly, undeterred, undevided.
My love it runs swiftly, not holding back, resolute and ever-knowing
where the basin-home lies, wide-open.
Shall it be cut off from the main-stream course, an unexpected turn-
it keeps gliding, slowly, gently onward.
And shall it lose momentum, caught in a depression, turn
murky, foul, lifeless - patience - over seasons or ages
it shall rise and become clear, weightless.
My love is never old - change is her shadow - loss, a mirage
on the long journey through the frenzied jungle, home.
Formless is her nature, unbecoming and rebirth - her breath -
every moment, anew.
just clumsily throwing together some sentiments I've had in a free-form

I want to be yours
But you don’t want to be mine
What life can predict
What I can expect
When you going down
I can’t this resist
What make you think this
What make you believe
So why I can’t be yours
And you can’t be mine
What else I need to show
To believe that I’m real
You know it’s so sad
I can’t make you love
I wanted to heal you
But you just a stone
Robot who lives in the gray world
Your soul wanna feel it
But your mind is too strong
I want to help you
I want you to feel this
This world not for money
This world for the love
Something from my past
Ps English is not my first language si pls correct me if u see something strange, thx

I'm too available.
So I'll party to pass the time.
Dance once I've had enough wine.
An exchange of words
In passing.
May I have your attention please!
Undevided.
You're sliced up
And diced.
First come, first served.
And the fans want an encore.
How could you say no?
Nor would you know that I've been waiting all night for the twenty minutes when everyone else ceases to exist.

*Maybe tomorrow then.
Claw your way to the front of the class if you want to be seen.

You can hide from
the rest of the world
BUT
You can't hide from yourself

Deal with it

I have become
A master at hiding
Smiling just enough

Yet, looking closely
The eyes never lie
The pain; hurt, sadness
All there to see

When the world is
Upside down
I  graciously help others

My undevided attention
Intently listening to
Their problems

So, I don't have to
Share my feelings

Have  you ever noticed
When somebody asks you
"How are you "
they really don't want
To know the TRUTH

Hiding in plain sight

We have become
a society of disconnect
Interactive  on-Line
without physical contact
2004/2017 rewrite
I am a  lonely person I've become very  good at putting up the walls
