It’s done, I left. And, disinherited. They sworn I’d be left on my own, So tell me, Good Lords, Have I ever not been on my own? I am weary of the living, Weary of the long, blind struggle; I am weary of the trusting, Where my trusts but torments prove; Weary of the dimly…

Darling, it was a disaster. That unbearable, dearest secret has always been a disaster. The hazard when we try to escape. Hanging over and over afterward what we should have done instead of what we did. But for those short times we seemed to be alive. Misled, misused, lied to and exploited, condemned. Still, through…

Happiness….. Not in another place, but this place; Not for another hour, but this hour; Not in sweet heaven, but this bitter earth; Not desired by stars, but this weary heart. We have wasted so much life, worried about future, dwell on past, afraid of a true self, fear of the collective. We want love,…

Hijacked by Fate, she brought me there. I was sired and weaned in a Motherland, where I was not suppose to be, where a new identity was given, and where a wronged story began….. In a tropic world, ruled by year-round sultry summers and visited often by typhoon and storms, I knew the palm trees…

Seasons come, seasons go, All day long, I can hear that souls’ echo, Calling me home. But to where? My life had been a story of survival, All my years I kept my own counsel, I’ve tasted my tears, covered by nights’ heavy pillow. I’ve tested my fears, hidden behind dawns’ soft meadow. And if…

I have known the silence of the sky and of the sea, And the silence of a city when it pauses, the silence of a child and a maid, And the silence of the sick when their eyes roam about the rooms, And I asked: For the sake of depth, What’s the use of language…

Today, I heard a song makes me insecure. Today, I saw a post triggers me insane. A date, the meaningful remembrance for blessed many, and, the dreadful reminiscence for selected few. Perhaps, selected by God, or volunteered before birth. But, it makes no difference, Hell was waiting…. I did not know what hell look like,…

At that first sight, he seems to be confident, Too much so, to the discerning eye, there harbors a thick layer of pride; he seems to be controlled, so much so, to a degree of unescapable repression; he seems to be friendly and unaffected, But what he’s really after is to be loved. One could…

As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live. — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe . To make a confession, I have no poems proper. I found words quite foolish. For I have learned to look on nature, Not as the hour of thoughtless youth, But hearing oftentimes, the still, sad music of…

Lily The Bird 🐦, Cheerful her chirping, Daredevil her spirit, Sometimes flirty, Sometimes lofty, Sometimes hasty, Sometimes naughty. I marveled at such a dainty creature! Lily The Bird 🐦, slightly chubby, big eyes sparkling, Utterly uninhibited, tiny head demanding, Special charm has been my Lily, Oh, please, “Serve me that Sweet milk 🥛 alongside French…

Tenderness your gaze, rewards the prime of my youth. Sentimental my phrase, A marigold, I brushed at your every praise. Nostalgia, now filling my breath, This path, ruled by millions alluring roses, glowing laurel and vines mingled close. With billion stars swinging above us, Dear one, I ever wondered, Who would be so pleased with…

Sometimes I refrain to write, It costs too much nerves to confide, I am the easy-going type, who kept my world tight. Sometimes I eager to write, Astonished by soul”s hidden line, I am the dreamer type, yet rides the earthy tide. Sometimes I prefer the grand symphony, With rose, champagne, tympani, But all I…

Sometimes human life seems a pleasant fate: The day so sweet, the night so great! And, in that enchanted Paradise, settle down, We’ve scarce begun to admire the heavenly sun, So Charming, like that of psychedelic baroque, Sucked me into its brilliant ray. . Till, When the sun leads to sunburn, Love leads to “will…

Fear, Still brewing inside, Fermenting the mirage of augmented reality, If I must tell the truth. . But I am relieved . Fear, This time, I call out your name, I see your face, We won’t play hide and seek . No doubt, It’s an accomplishment. I know the end is near. . . .…

Just like poetry can’t be enjoyed by a mind, That has no imagination; Generosity can’t be appreciated by a heart, That has little reciprocation. . You can be spoiled Only if you choose to . . Final note: Look at what a generosity I’ve received from nature today! 🤪 Of course, I did share with…
