2021
Tightness engulfs the mind The demons of the soul creeping between the cracks Incessant words ricochet around the invisible walls Clasping palms over the ears to dull the sound.

Final breath
You took your final breath today You said your last goodbyes Your body no longer trapping you To the confines of its sides Your conscious is now free my dear to soar above the clouds The pain has freed you from it clutches, your vision becoming clear To be at one with everything
I need to face the world today
I’m cosy in my bed balancing the water bottle on my forehead The wind is circulating outside, rain drops spattering my windowpane I need to face the world today Cool air touches the skin on my arms as they venture from the covers Pain receptors awakening, my body begins to ache,.fingers stretch I need toContinue reading “I need to face the world today”
Run the race
What is success in this ocean of greed? Did the great oak question its destination when it presented as a seed? Can we achieve true happiness in the blink of an eye?
