Carrying trauma
Shovel it up, shuffle it down
Mix it until it fades
It freezes everything
So best to let it stall.
Stalling the inner city,
Stepping into different gravity
Escaping the choking air,
Polluted with disharmony.
Wash it, ignore it, suppress it—
Then comes the wave.
It floods the senses,
Shatters the lenses.

Friends for all seasons
When seasons change
And coldness takes its place,
The symptoms of sadness shift and rearrange.
Leaves scatter, broken, brown, and dry,
Washed away or scrunched up high.
The storm breaks twigs, branches crack,
But the roots stay strong, keeping all intact.
Roots of life, spread with love and laughter,
Through these strong roots, new memories come after.
Season to season, ...

Strings Unseen
Being alone is safer these days,
Than tangled in someone else's haze.
Some are trapped in their mirrored gaze,

Using my heart as a fleeting...

The hidden lights begin to bloom.
Through storm and rain, our roots extend,
Finding the strength, where the branches bend.
In the darkest of nights, the stars align,
Within the struggle, that we define
A beauty forged in tears and strife,
The preciou...

Angels on my Journey
I just go straight to the point,
This piece don't need no intro, no joint.
In Oct 2019, darkness overtook

She chose to end it, a tragic leap,
Bruised round her neck, too much to bear,
Life lost all meaning it became thin as air.
Bathing the soft soul, i left her to be.
