Desperation

When life became an abstraction,
reality crumbled.
When upside-down was the new normal,
home became an abstract.

While this was a horrible experience,
it wasn’t the worst part.
What really caused desperation,
was the ignorance.

The isolation this caused,
was not...

Let Me Be

Now, let me be candid with you
without fuss or further ado,
no mask, mirage, obscurity.
A mere, raw "you get what you see".
And what you see is what you get,
just you, and me, no props, no set,
no role, no game, no stage to play.
Pure beingness - my holiday.

Another Year

Another year is ending, making me wonder how I got here, so fast.
A lot of waiting, though expanding the moment, accelerated the timeline.
Waiting for what?
Waiting for things to move that were beyond my control.

Another year is...

Favourite Things

The things I love aren't bold, or fancy.
It's rather the shy, and silent aspects of life, that draw my attention.
A wisp of sunlight falling through the blinds, offering a spotlight to dancing dust particles.
The rain thrumming a soft beat on the roof.
Branches of bare trees drawing patterns into...

Should We?

We should have stopped the moment it started. Alas, we didn't. 'Neath a vespertine sky, we moved towards the foreseeable destination, as if ache, not chivalry, was the best morning gift awaiting. Everyday miles unending, I am learning with age, to close the door faster. Gladly...

All The Trimmings

All the trimmings spread
over walls, and windows
I'm coming up for air

Apart we languish
though they glow
like fragments of nebulae
for me to find them.

Untold stories press
against my bruised heart
attempting
one more time
to break it
open

When my love blooms
all the tiny sparks
rejoin to one nova

Retrograde

When things
get brighter
I sometimes
go retrograde
and fall into the gap
between now
and then

The way
you hold space
for me
when I do
inspires me
to hold this space
for me, too

WHISPER

One evening
fall fell upon us
like a curtain across rainbows

For a while
we sat in ambient dim
illustriously removed from the world

Till one night
darkness fell upon us
like a curtain of brimstone

The road is shrouded, the view obscured
The world no longer seems the same
Do I let myself get lost
Will I give way to paths
Unseen, yet present
Transitory
Yet profound
I walk

Choices

My contribution to this week's #BlueSkyArtShow ( #home ), and #BornBattleReady ( #choices ).

CHOICES

Choices - we make them all of the time
The question's not if we decide -
or what - but from where we choose
Do we stand in our truth
or do we mask it?
Integrity's
the compass
that leads
home

SUMMER'S END

Summer's embers turn to flames in fall
Berries blush under dark crow's call
Now the sun keeps her head low
As time arrives to grow
Stronger light inside
And I let go
When gales blow
Away
