Resentment
Oh, look how far I've fallen
Like Icarus with his waxed wings
Melted by the burning desire; fell hard not soften
What does my actions do? nothing, it brings
Oh, who do I point my fingers to?
It does nothing but makes it more grim
Surrounded by shadow of guilt, no hope nor light's dim
Thoughts are loud, i just might cut a limb
Everyday I try, everyday I submit
I speak good deeds yet ...

A Night Walk
I look up at the stars at night,
It's quiet and so dark.
There's one that shines so very bright,
I wander to the park.
A bright and beautiful shooting star,
A cluster of twinkling lights.
I wonder if I could travel so far,
Or climb such great heights.
For I do want to see them all,
To marvel in their beauty.
Vast expanses I feel so small,
Milky Way like the blue se...

A dramatic monologue from a Submarine Captain
I'm in this long metal tube, alone in the deep.
Searching for something, but I can't really see.
I hear a noise, it sounds like a scream.
I gaze out the window, a Siren I spot.
She points to the hatch, I know that I shouldn't.
But her song is so beautiful, she entrances me.
I reach for the latch, I'm twisting the bar.
Shes nodding her head, she's captivating me.
I can't sto...

what could truly be beautiful about me?
the scars on my legs,
face or chin?
My uneven hips,
my bow legs?
or maybe it was in the heat of the moment,
I gave him my lips and
he pounced.
he tasted the sweet nectar we call saliva
And made it his home.
his rent was due to stay in my arms
So he u...

Universal consciousness is omnipresent
— living vicariously, we too are one - and the same,
Having the time of our lives
all knowing— enlightened divine sparks
going —Godspeed.
This is a way of life:
Anatomic amino acid building blocks chain letters,
into the complex double helix;
in our initials is a chemical signature—me and my significant other have between us—

Is everything okay?
'Is everything okay?' She asked with a sense of duty not care.
This tells me that even the deepest of pains cannot be concealed. Humans know humans.
All those wasted hours I spent on pampering my appearance to hide behind a mask of beauty have been wasted.
My reflection routine of practising the performance of emotions must have been ineffective.
In response I say, ‘yes I’m okay!’ tr...

A Glance into Romance
While admiring the happy couple I feel bliss.
Then my stomach sinks.
The heart-shattering realisation that I will never acquire that same affection.
Some humans are not built for romance, and I am shamefully one of them.
I do not want your roses. I do not care for your false proposes.
All I want is to be seen.
For someone to not love me for my skin, but for my soul.
Many eyes ...
