Pain

 



Indescribable,

my lifeless heart’s agony

buried deep in pain

 

Unspeakable wrath

of your sharp-edged tongue

stabbed me to death.

 

Hatred overwhelmed

your jealous narcissistic

self and scattered plumes.

 

My soul’s rain of tears

drowned myself. I have lost you.

I only have me.

Living a Smile


talk less and smile more

it will make your mind at work

heal you from the hurts


to die is easy

but you have to live harder

make time for yourself


talk less and smile more

from within, it's a call to

live beautifully

Daily Hope




Day starts at four dawn
With closed eyes to the Great One
Tranquility reigns

My heart in whispers
Gratitude is my first breath
For life I behold

Mindfulness I seek
No matter what the day brings
Be kind, true and strong

I can never tell
In a quandary I am
Will this be my last?

Nightmare

a dreadful cold night
scarred body and spirit
ruthless souls ripped me

i can hear my mom
in the stillness, heaven cries
her shattered heart weeps

mystery



No. 8, Black Flowing, Jackson Pollock


turmoil in my heart
enslaves my hand to depict
mystery in black

Cold Morning



socks fit snugly mom
with toast and hot chocolate
your hug completes me

Revelation




shades of black and white
if i bare my true color,
will you love me still?

***
 
smile that you behold
hides scars of a wounded heart
pity i detest

Divine



dense green foliage sways
as wind hums its lullaby
to Divine Presence

Mother Teresa



her acts of kindness
worthy of emulation
mystical aura
