• Poem #1 – “A Lake on my Eye” – Romance – 4/10/2020

    My eyes turn towards where you sail,And, also swim.My eyes turn towards where you screamOn a subtle whim. You ride the currents above my stare,Because that is where my loathing has its bathing.You row oars across the sadness,Beneath the starry nightOf our mourning.You have chosen the straw closest to my heart,That was also the shortest.…

  • Poem – “My Eyes Steam in the Long Spring Night” – Romance – 4/10/2020

    From my mouth, bellows howlsTo the moon, from the wretchedness I have become. From my eyes, there come steamAfter many long night in woeful screams. From my eyes, there soars the skiesAnd the creatures that sail upon my backDrink me, the martyr,The one who died for another.She lays floatingUpon a lake, with lifelessness to every…

    Do not cross the manWith suffering where he stands,For he is bound to break youAnd leave with tears you do not seeRoaring down his pallid cheeks. Do not accuse the manWhose smile is never shown,When all you see is the frownWhen he is always downAs the most visible self. His pain has eclipsed his mind,To…

  • Poem – “Life could not Warm you” – Romance – 4/9/2020

    Life could not thaw the ice from beneath your eyelids,Nor breed flame inside your heart.You were destined to leave this Earth behind, to me,To the oceans, that cross beneath my feet. I once held your head in my arms,Tired as it was.I once kissed the face that bled me tears,For I grew at once, the…

    Father, will you allow me one tragedy?Blessed by your missing love,I have been able to offer from meTo the woman of my destinyOne vow, spoken with trembling lipsAnd a heart that skipsBeats, in the stillness of new fallen sun-rays.

  • Poem – “Where Shall I Dump my Pain?” – Romance – 4/8/2020

    Where shall I dump my painIf it is from a cloud? Where shall I dump the current loadIf it only sails upstream? The clouds war with the groundAnd bless the daylight with their grief.Just as God would like to have made Man a perfect imageOf His reflection.Life is too crude,Too undoneOf knots meant to hold…

  • He sees what little he can see, of her in the dimness of their shared room. While blankets and quilts adorn the corpse of a fallen woman, her hair blinds her eyes, too.

  • Poem – “Feel what Pain I Bleed” – Romance – 4/8/2020

    Send intoMe, when you’ll come to bleedThe song of a mocking siren.Kisses are the texture of velvet upon your mouth,While dreams lay wasted in fields that do not want to runAmok with the seedsFor new beginnings. Life has been a cruel displayOf utter dismay. My desires flee from my parted lips,Like sighs from one burthened…

  • Poem – “Worthy is your Presence” – Romance – 4/8/2020

    Only when I weepDo I feel tears that truly stickTo cheeks made of the same pallidityAs the stones above your grave. Cry more, will I?To the open winds, that scream back the same verseI jot down, upon paper of some pale oceanThat feels my fallen tears. I have loved with a heart that would not…

  • Poem – “Drape Me in your Tresses” – Romance – 4/8/2020

    Entitle me the moment, to count each living waveThat pours around your scalp.Life bequeathed me one moment, to kiss your lips,As the scarlet drowned in my pale.Life is only worth two seconds in timeTo count each eye, as though they are mine. What beauty,And what stagnancy,Has kept me entranced, with all that surrounds meIn the…

  • The society of self-love has been a concerning topic for me for a while, seeing that people who’ve been betrayed turn to themselves. What is the meaning behind self-love? Does it mean that love has a way to redirect itself upon the self? When love is given, is it thrown back? When love is thrown…
