It Fits
It fits.
It just simply does.
My arm fits behind your head,
as we lie on the bed, in the glow.
Your head on my shoulder,
comfortable and light.
It fits.
It just does.
Staring at the ceiling;
at the cobweb on the fan.
Nobody cares. There are no thoughts,
just reverie, and peace. Just to be.
It fits.
It just fits.
This life with you,
and who we are.
This growth togeth...

In My Life Time
In my entire life,
the worst things to come
upon me,
has come at the,
hands of respectable
people, who call themselves
good.
It has not been,
scary men, in dark shadows.
It has not been,
those people, across the sea.
It has not been,
the conman, stealing my soul.
It has been,
men and their wives,
who own businesses,
and lands,
and courts,
and governments,
and religions,

Finding the Deep
When the needle pricks your finger.
When you hide under the covers.
When you look under the bed.
When you go down into the basement.
When you dig up the root in the yard.
When you lay someone to rest.
When you drill to find water.
When you mine for gold.
When the sink hole collapses.
When you drop deep inside Krubera.
When Earth cracks in two and you reach t...

Family Tree
Her wrinkled hand took hold of his
as she sang a grand old song
Her grandson looked at it & said:
You've been in the bath too long!
She said, "Those creases are like the circles
within a wonderful tree!
It shows how long I've been around
How long that I've been me!"
There's a lot of creases there, Grandma
They've spread right up to your face!
I recko...

Colours
I feel like a blank sheet of paper
White and clean
A colourless vapour
just emptiness
and nothing else
not good
or bad
just
nothing
nothing at all
like a black hole
it’s as if white is not a colour
it’s just
when you don’t have any
no yellow smiles
no grey trials
no tears running blue
no red beds for two
no black roses
for all the losses

Paper cuts
Cuts from pristine crisp yellow pages
leading to a moonlit night
beside the waves
with the onomatopoeia of the lapping waters
against your feet
and the warmth from the
fire beside
Cuts from letters
not pronouncing love
but charges for services with “friendly reminder” written in red
and an occasional congratulations
and seasonal “vote for me”s

The Beacon
She plucked a sunbeam
one fine day
And fashioned it
in such a way
A lighthouse man
came to say
He thought it would
keep ships away
He took it with him
in a jar
And there it shone
bright as a star
And all the ships
from near and far
Flashed masthead lights
just to say Ta!
And it shone so bright
through storms & rain
A shield a...

I Am Your Friend
I am death and I am your friend
I will be at your side when you meet your end
I’ll be there to lead you down the sacred path
You’ve always known
You must have been told
For everyone meets me in the end.
I’m not to be laughed at
And neither should you fear me
But either way you and I shall meet
Better to meet me with a smile, however worn
After all our meeting was...

Future Found
The colour of your shirt does not determine your standing or standard of life,
Your position within a company does not make you who you are,
When describing one's self it is hard to not chronicle ones job,
Instead regale your sole and subsequent wisdom.
The 8 to 10hours a day you spend away not looking at reflection nor self-righteous meditation can leave you impatient yet waiting and ...

Mind Neuroplacebos
Just thinkin' of that night,
Colors of black and crimson red,
And the 5 liters of blood and byle
That I internally shed,
It's a miracle that I'm alive,
Cause I should be dead,
Battling the depression sucks,
Sometimes it's hard to get out of bed,
Only God knows the everyday duels
With the devil I fight inside my head,
The people that I've hurt,
And the thi...

I Hope
I hope you'll love what's left of me
After life has had its fill
I hope you'll see in those old eyes
There's love & laughter still
I hope my skin of brittle parchment
Can be traced by loving fingers
I hope this weary sheet of braille
Shows an epilogue still lingers
I hope our hands still intertwine
Like stars cling to the sky
I hope we waltz through amb...

Star-walking
Don't ever say it's over
If we are breathing
Racing to the moonlight
Baby we are speeding
Got you from that heaven
I'll be up even for a 1000 nights
from those days to our years
Be ready we'll be taking flights
Keeping love in this young heart
as I would ever dream of
can't even close my eyes
as this reality is even better than I dreamt of
Like both sides of the sun

Remember me
Remember me
for even I'm far away
Keeping our love alive
I'll never fade away
Think of me
Don't let it make u cry
Just a little longer
I promise we'll eventually defy
Feel me
When scared just close ur eyes
I'll always hold u in my heart
I'll make u fly all those skies
Believe in me
I'll be yours in all my lives
for the love we have

Dove
It's not living if it's without you, my love
what about this feeling inside,
the warmness coming from a song by that dove.
and if it's not living if it's without you love,
then I'll keep hearing that song
Just from your dove.
*here, dove means heart.

My princess
The feeling of grief is scary,
so do i used to think.
Seems special thinking about her up all
Can't get her out even when I blink.
she keeps the secret in her eyes,
even when she's in a hurricane.
doesn't let's me tangle in those sights,
not giving up in her arcane.

Will you kiss me
Kiss me, will you kiss me,
Under the deep blue night,
Make it long, make it last,
Make it so right.
Embrace me, will you embrace me,
Deep in the moonlight,
Make it strong, make it warm,
Make it so tight.
Stay with me in this moment here,
Please don’t ever leave me,
Your the only girl I’ll ever want,
Yours, I shall eternally be.
Friday 9th September 2022 7:32 pm
I promise
You gave me sunshine,
when I had only rain,
You brought me happiness,
when I only knew pain.
You gave me light,
when darkness filled my world,
You beautified my life,
when you became my girl.
I want to hold you in my arms,
So you can feel my heart beat.
I will embrace you so deeply,
That our two souls shall meet.
I want to kiss you so sweetly,

I am what’s wrong with me..
I am what’s wrong with me..
Not the people around me.
Not my love life.
Not what I have or don’t have.
It’s solely me.
I feel empty, like a dry river screaming and crying for some rain..
Only thing is at least the River knows what it is that it wants or need so bad.
At least the River has a reason to shout.
Whats my reason ?
I feel like screaming.
I feel like...

Reflections
In the mirror I saw my own fragility
Sagging contours weighed heavy by age
An arid landscape of fissures and brushland
Time had eaten away its lustre
Leaving a fallow space
The eyes, once sparkled crystal blue
Now faded pale & weary
I studied this ageing fossil
This reflection of reality
Scratching at the brushland
Wondering what time had done
with the young m...

When...
When I am too old for life
And life has taken all I have
When my breath is but a shallow whisper
And the whisper turns a winter's breeze
When my heart quivers its last offering to time
And time graciously accepts
When my eyes forever slumber
And slumber takes my soul
I think that I shall linger still
In the periphery of twilight's yawning
And in smiles, ...

On Man
On Man
Like tiny ants we scurry
Between skyscrapers of grass,
Peeping about - a human worker class.
Watching ourselves surpassing all limits,
Creators of structures, cultures, unimaginable wonders.
Finding God thriving within us.
Do we think the ant knows of it’s impending mortality?
Knows it’s destined to a life of sheer ephemerality?
Or knows it’s intricate c...

Late Night, Harbour Lights
The air is warm tonight
the sea no longer ravenous
As the shawl slips from your shoulders
there’s a feeling that breeds in us
now, we are home
or close enough
A candle flickers at every table
the seafront cafes like crooked teeth
The harbour mouth is kissing us
with its swing bridge tongue and river beneath
We feel that we are home
or close enough
Tied by these rings
and the meani...

Keep shinning
Yea, life's indeed beautiful,
Though the acceptance is not necessary.
The situations are hurtful,
Yet the realisation is mandatory.
Life is somehow like a fairy tale book,
Everything is going on by hook or by crook.
But after a while, take a look,
Not mesmerized, but the beauty will leave you shooked.
Yea,your life is somewhat miserable,
And in process of cu...

The life of a teen
At this very moment I’m an 18 year old, from Denmark. I don’t have much idea of who I am, but as many scientists state, my brain is still under development, so I choose to believe it’s okay. I don’t really have hobby hobby, but I enjoy trying new things, and have periods of times, where I’m fixated on a certain thing and will be doing that, until I’m tired of it. It has been painting, drawing, gym...

The Garden
The barbs of your tongue
Cut me to shreds
Unpicking my mind's
Most delicate threads
So I weaved myself words
From the pit of my soul
To replace all the light
And the joy you had stole
Then I ripped myself free
From your talons of spite
Spilling ink upon page
Under dawn's weary light
And I bled, intravenous
Through roots of my mind
Feedi...

Love & Grief
Love & grief
Are but the same
Both distort
Your mental frame
With tears of joy
Or tears of pain
Life will never
Be the same

Words of Appreciation
It's that time after the entire day is over and it's dark out there so feel some calmness in your surrounding. When music takes over your every sense, and you just do what you love to do after your entire day is finished.
Oh! don't get any other ideas, I'm just talking about your hobbies, not something that takes control over your soul. I'm not talking about 'Something' that deep, just your ho...

A Single Cloud
After you were gone
My heart fell apart
A jigsaw without structure
A mess of lonely parts
I think you took me with you
My breath, my life, my soul
For all that remained
Was this deep & vacant hole
One day I fell into its depths
Without thought of return
Crumbling to a waste of ash
In my own neglected urn
But, I awoke blinking
At the sun's ...

Glass is full
Give the glass another glance.
Is the glass half full . I ask every day. Was it ever full. Or am I looking askance.
What is the running all about. Days turn to years. The running looks like a stationary dance.
Life says stop running. Appreciate my beauty. Like you used to do once.
Break the shackles. Look at the glass. It was always full. Give yourself one more chance.
For, in life...

Explorers
Beyond the rolling, molten sky
There dwells a place for when we die
To be reborn in starlight's eye
A genesis of every you & I
We'll seek out worlds yet to be seen
Become creations brightest gleam
Sew the thread within the seam
To weave new worlds of endless dreams

Hello again Mr. Ink
Hello again Mr. Ink,
It's been a long time and I'm kinda glad.
Everytime you come around is because things are bad.
I havn't felt the need to have you in my life.
But lately...
That desire has been back.
The need to write my feelings down.
The need to cry as I type..
Funny how back then I worte with pen and paper with my tears runing down.
Look at me now..

A Simple Question
I asked God, what is my purpose?
There was nothing, but the stillness of time
I asked Allah, what is my purpose?
There was nothing, but the stillness of time
I asked the Buddha, what is my purpose?
There was nothing, but the stillness of time
I asked my daughter, what is my purpose?
She said, with a wrinkled brow
To be my Dad, of course
To have met & married my Mam

This Day
As we stroll,
the dusky pink of a morning sunrise
turns the fields to candy floss.
We get sticky and wet
from the sweetest dew.
I stifle a yawn,
and the softness and scent
of moisturised skin
briefly brushes the redness
of my sun-flushed cheek.
She smiles,
all dimples & eyes of blue serenity.
And, for a moment,
there is no world but us.
Later, w...

Liminal
Liminal
I live in the spaces
Between leaving and arriving,
Jumping and landing,
Fearing and surviving.
(Clutching my duffel bag on the bus
To dreaded childhood swimming lessons.)
Half asleep, half awake.
Tests all done, results await.
Sweet honeyed pause before
The axe falls, the hospital calls.
Racing mind, facing blind panic, the reels that wind.
Life in...

MONUMENTAL
Happy alone although not physically alone
Just two repellent magnets incompatible forces
Fighting to pull closer but no efforts could make the scientifically impossible...possible
Not in those circumstances at that time
The facts were just the facts
Unsigned unwritten laws bound by unspoken pacts
Small print unread but thankfully unsigned
Well technically
Just not sys...

A slow Turtle
A slow turtle, with a heavy back.
Wanted to sprint like the dotted cat.
He was sad because he didn't know his limits,
Devastated after seeing the results of his speed per minute.
Poor turtle knew a little about himself
Grew up among cheetah, thinking he was one self.
Speed was thing where he wanted to be the best.
Without even enjoying the process itself.
He could...

The Breeze of Life
The breeze of lust
flows through the forest
of my heart
like a fallen ember
igniting the soul
of souls
housed within the growth
that has been my shield
The breeze of love
coalesces from the ocean
of my mind
like a gentle touch
filling my soul
of souls
housed within the depth
that has been my home
The breeze of lust
The breeze of love
together form one
to become

The Waves of Life
A child is born, a new and different soul
Who enters into changing waves of life
That carry him from birth until his death
Through sorrow, joy, despair and happiness.
The childhood starts as blessing and great joy
For caring parents that are nurturing
Before emerging in the cruel world
Where people always want what others have.
As growing up, the goals are aiming ...

Every night I have this dream me and you walking down the stream
hand in hand down the narrow path your words resonates in my heart
we talk about here and now ,past ,present and future somehow
suddenly you stare at me asking why me
neither I am rich neither I am poor but somewhere in between dear
neither my looks are worth a dime
so why do you give me so much time ?

As I Progress Through Life
As I progress through this thing called life,
I detach more and more from strife.
I rejoice in simple pleasures taught,
Because I fill my heart with love sought.
I still my mind and meditate,
Searching the universe in an ethereal state.
The peace I gain keeps me balanced and sane,
Ascending above this mortal plain.
The more I learn about this station,
The more ...

In the world of her
On the threshold she stood,
Of the house where her life smiled.
Waving wildly her small arms at him,
Of whom she was the only child.
Inside sat the lady of the house,
Silencing her sobs and drinking up her tears.
Careful not to let the the happy bird know,
Chasing her was the worst of her fears.
All laiden with arms covered under his coat,
To not let the little...

Life is as tear drops of the morning.
When the sun throws its warm kiss
Away to the drop,
It becomes an invisible entity.

The Real Definition of Life
Life is a little shining star
That you can't define so far,
Life is a mirror lucid and clear
If broken, you can't feel her!
Like a dream life is fairy
Seeing it, oh, so scary!
Life is an extreme pain unhurt
As if it looks like an invisible art.
Life is darkness of the night
And the burning light of the sight,
Oh, life is a little shining star
That you can't define so far!

Kachō-Ōji (課長王子)
Close your eyes,
It's okay you won’t feel the pain anymore.
Close your eyes,
You can rest, no more fatigue or feeling sore.
Close your eyes,
This will be quicker than waiting for a cure.
Close your eyes,
It's time to meet the Angel of Death to relieve you from all that you've endured.

You cannot change the world,
but you may be able to be an
influence in someones world.
The world is wild and unruly.
Chaotic in nature. But you
can make a difference each
moment to feel into its texture
with your touch. It won’t be much,
but maybe it is just enough.
it is all you can do in the face
of the storm that matters.
Live it. Live it for those who can...

You’re right
3 years ago, I viewed frogs as aliens
Now I wonder whether they’re angels
Months ago, I hated the sound of songbirds
Now I write their songs
I tweet along
Everything I did, I did do
It still was
Even if it no longer is
Whatever I am
I still am what I was
Even if I no longer am
You’re right
I was right and now I’m left
But the person I was hasn...
