War and Victims


A feather rose in the dust,
dust that speckled the scene

The feather sat on a soul
softly weeping, tired.

Tired, because it would never stop
the din, the blood, the massacre

The massacre of innocents
Tied to their fateful destiny

The soul gasped a sigh
of anger, of relief

Anger, because it would never stop
Relief from the din, blood, massacre

As I close my eyes,
I struggle to see it one last time

The colours are the hardest to fight,

flashing right in front of me

The graphic is so vivid
Yet, it happens miles away

I can see it with eyes closed,
'cause I already have, several times


Will it finally stop?
Will all the souls stop gasping

However, it never will,
Until the earth's soul finally gasps.

Dreamcatcher


The wind breathes through you
Softens you, ruffles your feathers

As you soften me, my mind
As you ruffle through my heart

How do you stay so pretty?
Having absorbed darkness, night long.

I rest my sadness, I rest my fears
As I know you watch over me.

I wonder how you always gleam
In spite of feeding on my sorrows

Maybe, thats what you show us
Darkness doesnt always breed darkness

Psychedelic Black Hole



Restless I gaze at my heart
going spirals about you

It gushes out from the holds of time
and falls into a bottomless pit

I stare at myself in the mirror
for want of company and joy

My mind keeps going in circles
churning memories of us

I give up, I fight no more
I rush into you, my black hole

And shy you stand dead center
bulls eye, apple of my eye

Chaotic Harmony


Life never stops. Life goes on
Roads many, Junctions plenty

Life is a rainbow, of colors, of people,
A mess, yet, it flows poignantly

I met you at one of these Intersections
All paths slowly closed henceforth

From thence, sprung a plant
seeded in unity, in colorful harmony

We move together now, intertwined
submerged in color, in flavour and life

silently praying that this harmony
this Chaotic harmony lasts forever.

Until Spring!



Hey you! Yes, you!

Bow to the wind today,
For you will conceive tomorrow.

Fight for the light and swallow the shadows,
For you will gleam soon with the colors on the sky behind you.

Do not be deluded that you are alone amidst all,
For you are simply rooted to everything around you

Master your patience,
For you are a world in yourself.

I will chalk you again on a brighter day,
For you are eternally beautiful.

I know you can understand,
For I see me in you.

Until spring comes,
My pencil is down.
