Looking into a pool
Of wishes
And
As plain as day
She sees them

Until
Ripples
Form
The surface

And from
Obscurity
Ghosts
Rise
Skeletons
And alike
Dripping wet
Darkness
Ubiquitously

She takes
Step back
Another
Before she turns
To flee
Trying to
Loosen their grip
Upon her soul

You are
forever worthy
of love.
Speak softly
to your
tender heart~

what am I
but a speck of dust
in this morning light

tonight
once more
she will probe
the solitude of trees
in her make-believe forest
listening to the night
that faithfully awakens
the days of yore
sifting through the words
that mischievously play
on her moonlit agenda

dreams are my lighthouse
guiding me home

you can be a flower and fight a storm at the same time.

the touch
of your hand
when words
are not enough
sacred twilight knows~

Let the wish
#percolate
until it cements
into a dream

#vss365

...she is
filling to her
throat,
choking,
retching
on the
clag
and
still
his venom
#percolates ...

#vss365

as my soft whispers for you
become silky clouds of verse
carrying loving words
~ percolating ~
through the winds of wishes,
beholding galaxies of kismet
glow brighter
than ever before,
as our timeless love story
is forever written
across the stars.

waft missed for so long
odor-linked recollection
percolates through pores
yesteryear's backyard air calls
for fig, orange and saffron

Some days I only wish I am more brave.

What’s it like living in the future?
We don’t get newspapers
We get pictures, etched on metal shells,
The kinds that ricochet through h..e..l..l..
Stories come empty-handed,
On blank speech-balloons,
They rise in the name of happiness…
These days, we don’t eat,
We’re only fed…

Healing isn’t about trying to feel less, it’s about feeling safe enough to feel it all.

my eventide heart
plays your song
every night
pulsating to the rhythm
& dreams of us
as i unravel
devoted words
upon silky clouds of verse
i watch them ascend
like lamps
of enamoured fireflies
dancing amid
moonlit reflections
as astral skies
listen to my ballad
for you

#vss365

to the spirit
of souls and seeds
plant, plant
all through this dark and gentle night
