So much to say, but the words won't come out. I think it's my time, to just stop and listen.

BOOM

I survived

her explosion,

precious shrapnel

forever embedded.

chu

i wasn't looking

and then she came

like a wave of comfort

washed it all away

i never knew

it could feel like home

in the arms of a woman

i've barely known

no ones perfect

so i've been told

she's like a bomb

wrapped in gold

black feather

twenty years
of fine aged wine
intoxicated
his young eyes

he spilled his soul
in attempt to find
a secret passage
to her mind

it was love
but not the kind
his imagination
had designed

she sheltered him
throughout the storm
and helped him softly
not to mourn

sober and
strengthened by
her open heart
he could not cry

one night in
a lifetime of
will be remembered
for her true love

Jetlag

days full of empty thoughts
it's my disillusions consequence
why trust in instincts voice
it always leads to twisted paths

it was too good to be true
and too bad to be justice
a cancer is emerging
to fill this massive void

i never loved you
but i wanted to

fear of regret and lucid dream
extended an open hand
a day of fate will arrive
i trust in that or lose it all

the young grow bold
while the old grow numb
but one is without a memory of
the burn and sting of misplaced hopes

i never loved you
but i wanted to

nothing to blame
or retaliate for
it was just a lonely song
fetal embrace repair my soul

i'm numb but not from pain
these disillusions still remain
sell out the regret stained heart
appease the gods of broken dreams

i never loved you
but i wanted to

3-5-3

infinite
possibilities
in each day

haiku

today I feel
perfectly content
to be human
