Light of your love

About the death of a loved one. Dedicated to my friends.


Like a ship that passes in the night you again come in my dreams by night.

But, alas, the dreams last not so long - they’re carried with the morning breeze away at dawn.

Vanishing you...

With a wide flap of imaginary wings

About something that is unmissable in our life.


With a wide flap of imaginary wings

I rise above the stream of tedious fuss

and there in the soaring flight

a silhouette of a new verse will flash

and my heart shall flutter thrilled by the birth

MY RHYME

This poem is about my love for poetry. inspiration came to me whilst I was re-reading Romeo and Juliet. I fell in love with Shakespear's rhymes, they mattered more to me than the story...

My Rhyme:

My playground, my mirror, my vision

My gift, my offering , my contribution

My doubts, my regrets, my never-absent fears

My frowns, my laughter, my ever-flowing tears

 

My symetry, my perfection, in well-constructed sentences

My anger, my bitterness,...

The Acrobat

A divorced woman that begins dating again.


High above the world she walks,

an acrobat.

She balances her supple frame 

on the taut wire of hopes and dreams

and for a moment in time 

she sets aside

her duties and responsibilities

that have deferred and delayed

the longing hidden deep within

inhibiting her...

The Acrobat 2

A divorced woman going out on her first date after many years.


High above the world she walks,

an acrobat.

She balances her supple frame 

on the taut wire of hopes and dreams

her duties and responsibilities

that have deferred and delayed

the longing hidden deep within

inhibiting her...

Your Hatred is your Love


Your hatred, as evident, as you place it on paper and to anyone lending an ear, is solid evidence of your love my dear. My inability to read between blurred lines and questionable actions...

I AM NOT ME

I had a very dark moment, and I just had to write down my feelings. P.S. It's not my most polished work...


They say sadness is the worst, but how can anything be worse than nothing?

This emptiness inside, this numb feeling.

I try to fill myself up, to feel something inside. I intoxicate my blood.

But, nothing!

No feeling...
