[POEM] Our Journey

Framed

in foreign accents,

casual collars,

and arms embracing.

What a time

we’ve been having.

What a road

we have crossed,

and before us

a sea,

vast

and beautiful

as you.

[POEM] Klimt

Kaleidoscope mosaic,

shatter my heart.

Enrich my breath with thunder.

Allow me

forbidden euphoria

to tremble heavenly,

while you remain still

immaculate.

[POEM] Maria

Maria by aufzehengehen on deviantArt.

You are daybreak,

the placid beams of golds and ambers,

piercing the trees, bringing life to the earth.

Shades of rose, of caramel and milk

give way to a subtle hint, the crystal blue reality.

You are daybreak;

eyes show the pining soul of a waking world,

so ready to greet this warm glance,

the heat that is the spark of heartbeats.

You are daybreak.

Ave Maria. Ave Oriens.

[POEM] Pest

The pest

skulking among

my rose-tinted life –

that parasite,

immune to the most powerful

of mental pesticides I can afford –

this intruder gnaws

and claws

and digests away

at the foundation of my prudence.

[POEM] ‘Scuse Me: Part 2

‘Scuse me,

but you seem in need

of some motivation

and self-esteem.

My dear beauty,

deserving to be a queen,

how I wish you could see

the damsel of grace

staring back at me.

[POEM] The Curse

Whatever makes you happy –

this has become the phrase

to be etched in my tombstone.

[POEM] To let it out…

I was a can of soda today,

alone and forgotten too long in the freezer.

I didn’t realize I was carbonated,

did not understand the implications of low temperatures

putting pressure on my container.

I have been simply sitting here as the frost grew,

etching along my rim and tab.

Then, from nowhere, and with no warning,

it came.
