Predator or prey,
what’s lost can’t be restored.
What’s jotted in black,

My word against yours,
all were shades of our worries,
for it came down pouring,
till it was late to ignore it.
You and I were torn apart.
While I was blooming, It knocked at my door, I was new to it, So I was assuming. Was it was? Something feary, Or something deary. Shall I let it in, Or to get within, It was bright and fuming, Yet I feared with its glittering, It’s tempting, hard to resist, For a while I […]
The autumn sun flatters the aging eyes. The soul endures while the mind reigns. “Mother made delightful tea,” Bennie recalls. He lets a grin slip on his lips. Slouching in his seat, a thin plume rises from his cup.

A brilliant day commenced. A whirling bumblebee devoured my fears, reviving a shred of hope. Brighter I became, petals dazzling in a purposeful color.

No secrets can bear,
the long intimate stare,
when two souls dare,
to ignite under the layer,
of the moonlight.
