Love
we cannot love from other than the heart
from the petals of soul, the lotus deep inside
facing the truths of life, the feelings start
and exotism and color go subside
sad as a sorrow running on your sleeve
the night and day are dancing in a plight
the soul and mind are bleeding left to cleave
marooned on skylines ready to ignite

Sleep
close your eyes
lay and sleep
I’ll wait for you
in another realm
you set, I rise
back to back
we can’t see
that we are.

Truth
my blood runs day and night
at the end of this black pen
fine-spun insane fight
between a now and a then
moments leave the room
running to endeavor
as my thoughts still bloom
for the frail forever
as I lay down thoughts
writing about sooth
I cut endless knots
to embrace the truth

Path
I often not tell you a word about who I am.
Long way to get to my heart,
pondering wether you are born to make it.
Take the comforting smile and never ask what lies behind it.
I exhaust you with monsoons of thoughts to keep you safe
so you never hear the deepest silence burying my soul alive.
Countless innuendos paving the path between us
trying to teach me more, bypassing straight answers.
The one and only will walk the last mile.
