Burnt Words

The lines of poetry twist and turn,
A maze of words untouched, unturned.
Each golden drop of sunshine burns,
Every word as ashes leave, blurred.
Burning inside, outside, deep and dark,
A miracle of nature, it is unseen.
In seeing what is absent and missing,
One reinvokes joys of living.

Seek the sight of blind reverence,
Of dedication and promise of life in vivid dance.
The sight gives you...watchglass,
As each flamed glow of morsels is 'catched'.
The other side of the burning words,
A mirror is formed of murky absurds.
In totality the burning is cherish,
When form it renounces, pleasure bounces.
A pleasure in blindness, in burnt words,
In silent hearts...in silent worlds.

Phantom

Phantom, with your eyes so bright, Can you take away the night. Phantom, with your heart so cold, Can you keep me young and old. Phantom, with your diamond vice, Can you take my heart of ice.

Slow Burn

Slow burn. Worlds turn. And yet they stay. In their place today. Times change. And rearrange. Embrace the new. When they look for you. The old will seem. Like a fading dream. They hide, they guide.

Emotion Suspicion

Is this fate, Or is this love. Is this real, Or a gift from above. Is this destiny, Or is this perfection. Is this true, Or just small affection. Is this life, Or is this your heart.

Words

Words are my toys, that bend and do not break. Like an unbreakable sword, double edged, give or take.

Stars

There are those that do believe. That the stars represent our souls. Our lost ones looking over us. Watching how our lives unfold. But I believe the stars. Represent wishes held in our hearts.

My Wish My Dream

I wish wishes. Didn't exist. I wish the world. Was woven with bliss. I wish that life. Never took nasty twists. And that prayers. We're not needed. And that pain. Was a myth. I have a dream.
