Loss
Most children out-live their parents.
They go through their lives with you,
The solid,
The unchanging,
Always there,
And then one day they realize,
With gripping dread,
While watching others mourn the dead,
That one day they will, too,
And they're not afraid to die,
They're afraid of living without you.
New friend.
Flutter of wings...
What a mighty beast-
So beautiful,
And strong.
You remind me of-
Pegasus, but you have...
Different wings,
With spots of dark grey.
So, that may be how,
You got your name...
From the color of your-
Majestic wings.
I wonder what it’s like,
Having your very own-
Wings...You can
Move with the wind.
Will you let me ride you?
I would love to explore-
This city from greater
Heights, moving on a horse.
A gentle creature-
My new pal,
Such a rare thing to see a...
Granian.

The Ocean Inside Him
the sunset painted the sky
so delicately, it brought warmth
to his restless soul
when it touched the ocean
he ambled along the shore
as the gentle breeze brushed against his skin
he took a deep breath
filled his lungs with salty air
and let it touched all the wounds
others cannot see
he stretched out his arms
toward the water
the waves broke
as he gave in to the whirlwind of emotions
and dragged him out
to the vast ocean
he stared at the lilac sky
with barely stars visible;
stayed afloat
silently thanked the water
for soothing his soul
for reminding him
of the passion he once had
for letting his mind
wanders freely
for all the feelings
he never felt before
he slowly lost sight of the shore
when the water kept pulling him further away
from what once was an illusive haven;
he found himself again
as he closed his eyes
for the very last time
and took the ocean with him.

Fated fools & stolen jewels
Horses
That don't eat,
Die.
People
Who don't love,
Cry.
Desperate faces,
in disparate places,
Hiding the reasons they lie.
Flowers
In lifeless soil
Wilt.
Scottish men
Proudly wear
Kilts.
Ancient-aged whiskey,
Lambs acting frisky,
In Castles made without guilt.
Writers
Spill ink, like it's
Blood.
Pigs
Flop around in the
Mud.
End up as bacon,
In places like Macon,
Washed down with bottles of Bud.
Umbrella of Darkness
Moon shields face
in ragged shrouds
Secrets crushed
by darkest clouds
diamonds lose luster
extinguishing light
sheltering my soul
umbrella of darkness
famine of the unknown
clamp of life’s torments
cacophony of moonbeams
dissonance of unseen love
spinning of onyx night
moon skin-deep in sorrow
entwined with filtered fog
eclipsed emotions
midnight blue thoughts
obscuring truths
moody night churns
moon gnashes teeth.
