Moving On

Deep in the catacombs of the mind
traces of a trodden road you will find.
Rough, hewn borders line the way
through corridors, through darkness,
where hidden memories lay.
Each seam, each trench
covered by another woe
from another event.
With endless determination I would
chisel and smooth away
the hardened edges that suffering
and pain have built upon.
Yet, not so amazing is the
strength and [...]

Pale Lover

we kiss,
his lips are like the coldness
of a winter’s morn,
not yet pulsing with blood
like a corpse in the morgue
we lay together,
flesh and limbs entwined
his eyes see nothing
as if he was blind
when the deed of our lust is over
and the embers in my heart still burn
his emotions are disturbingly sober,
as he moves to one side and [...]

a tiny orb spin round her solar star. A
celestial radiance coursing through space,

The Human Wave

Energy in motion,
like the wave from an ocean
the wafture forms

Symbolic gesture
transcends all barriers
a brotherhood of love is shown

In all shapes and sizes
the crest of the wave rises
touching the heart of everyone

Fulfilling its destiny
on the shores of humanity
goes back to where it belongs

Merging into the depths
the ocean remains
yet, the wave still carries on.
