MAN'S KIND

Ants- we work in endless toil

Hurried feet across the soil

Stopping just to procreate

Then once more unto our fate.



Rats- we all live underground

Scurried thoughts and whispered sound

Surfacing for work and play

Then back down come night or day.



Birds- we flock to distant lands

Fluttered wings across the sands

Making nests we hope will last

Soon forgotten in our past.



Men- we take all that we see

Muttered claims of destiny

Building what we cannot grow

Destroying all we do not know.

A SHOW

The Sun so hot

In a fusion dot

Blaze the day bright

The Moon so cold.


In reflection white

Droll the dreamy night

The fissure chap

A game in crack.


Between the two

Who clips

The boundary

In a wedge.


Does it limber up

A show

For a Grand Finale!

THE POET

I think..! Because i have a brain

I eat to live because.,

My human needs requires it.

I speak because, I have a voice

I write words because it is me,

THE POET...

NEVER ENDING NIGHT

To this world I am now a ghost, as I sit trapped in.,
This never ending night;

The only way I can ever speak to you is...

Through these lost letters that I write

During my life I learnt our time is precious

My goodbye kiss was lost when my heartbeat slowly faded away

I also learnt life is full of surprises, I never guessed...

That i would have to write you this letter some day

Time never gave me a second chance

I never even knew I was so close to the end

When I see you cry I can no longer hold you

I guess death has turned me into an imaginary friend

My screams have become silent

Every night I have to watch over you

Helplessly as you cry

I can no longer talk, So I cannot even whisper
goodbye..

Each time I see your head facing the floor I try to pick up your quivering chin

But each time I reach out to touch you my hand just passes through your skin

Sometimes you try to talk to me whilst you are sleeping

I try to comfort you in my arms, but with
these transparent hands I can no longer use them to hold

I try to kiss you goodnight, but you always whisper for me to close the window as you are feeling cold..

I am stuck between worlds, Our love is now an incomplete story which is way too strong to ever truly end

I miss feeling my heart beat, But most of all I miss my best friend..

Sometimes you look up, and I would swear through your teary eyes you are looking straight at me

I keep waving my arms through the air, But you simply cannot see..

The only way I can ever speak to you is through these lost letters that I write

To this world I am now a ghost, As I sit trapped in.,

This never ending night...

MINUTES AWAY

I'm minutes away from my own drowned feelings

I'm captured in this moment and don't wish to be rescued

You see i took a picture of my soul spilling

My heart within these lines was a shattered piece

Like a broken window

I was cold i beg of you

Turn down the degrees of the hell that i see...

The light is hidden behind clouds

Each time i can sense loneliness

As i walk unable to feel my feet

What's the source of an abandoned child inside of you

And the weather changes in your heart

The outcome is blood shed

Sometimes my own skin is a stranger as
i grow to be the man

My mother can smile at...

Or maybe frown

Did my mistakes cut too deep than it was?


Then i wasn't in operation of my misery

 I Had Lived...

I had survived..

In just few minutes away.

TREASURE IN THE WOODS

Sunlight graced the old cabin

as the door creaked open

dust covered photos

still hung on the walls.



There stood a brick fireplace

A mason jar atop

Filled with antique silver coins

glistening in the dim light.


A table in the corner

displayed open newspapers

and some hard covered books

Next to an oil lantern.


The wooden floor boards cracked

as the bedroom came to view

bunk beds lined in a row

Covered in hand quilted spreads.



An old diary lay

tucked beneath a pillow

held closed with a gold brooch

Annabelle 1809.


A lifetime of memories

as if frozen in time

hidden behind these walls

Of this treasure in the woods.

THE SOUL THAT DWELLETH INSIDE

The Soul That Dwelleth Inside...

All Along the Night-Tide

He lay eyes on her as the blissful sun began to subside

For in the depths of his being he so longed to make her his bride

He called out to her, abandoning his fear & his pride

Already adorning her, ever thankful that the two didn't collide.

Lo!

In God's Time they would marry

Still loving each other, utterly,magically,ever so duly

Verily. He and Her, intertwined in divine kisses of carefree ecstasy

For their union was of Destiny, of Wonder never to be

Lead asunder, free, Heavenly, evidently the plan of an all knowing entity

With blessings his essence once again found her

Through time & space that Heavenly
glow still surrounds her

For she believed in a vision

which never lied, whilst he never lost faith & let God be his guide

Wherefore, their togetherness is that of an eternal well

One that still hath not dried

On his knees he praises God

His head abreast their child in her belly

Overcome with gratitude he hath joyfully cried eternally thankful 4...

The Soul That Dwelleth Inside.
