THE TRANCE

He loved the darkness in my eyes And I loved the sea that rolled in his We became one in a gaze The world was lost to us What was race?

TOO MUCH WOMAN

You used to say I was beautiful... That I was strong and exuded incontestable grace You used to love all the scars of my heart And all the other things that made me ugly Yet, You whispered incessantly "You're all the woman I'll ever NEED" You filled my days with renewed hope and gave me the strength to pick up my dusty jewels. Your love enveloped my cold and darkened soul Your encouragement was healing to my broken wings. You cheered me on You nursed my wounds... and uplifted my dampened spirit. As time went by, I grew feathers on my wings And with a flicker and a flick, my spirit was re-ignited. And when my wings grew all the feathers it had lost, I began to soar so high up in the sky.

SHOWER HEAD

I cannot recollect the number of times I have found warmth in you… You understand my battles and you hear the echoes too The echoes in these walls where nothing ever happens Where hopes evaporate and happiness has fled And every day is a nasty war, bloodier than before. You have heard my chanting through the night Praying and crying for redemption from life’s sinking sands I find no peace here, I find myself in pieces here. So I run to you for comfort Alas I am weary and the tissues of my heart are worn out Worn out from the journeys they wished I had traveled in pursuit of love and the luxuries of life. Reignite my passion to live on without fainting Maybe I aimed too high.  Maybe I deserve the low I like how your waters burn my skin My skin reddens as I groan in pain But I crave your touch…It is the only reality I understand. Maybe happiness is not for everyone…. I learn this every day.

Once upon a dark night, A sprite wandered along the prisons of human finesse And met the most rejected and unhappy being the world had ever known. Appearing in human form,  she tried to hide away before this being could lock his gaze on her. But it was rather too late… He found her... He found solace in her, Built a comfortable home, And made her bosom his resting place. Out of compassion, the sprite gave this forlorn creature a peak of her world. “My world is as dark as my soul Step into it and find light” she whispered. She showed him eye-numbing scenes of this world and beyond… Where happiness coincided with pain…. And formed a new indescribable ecstasy. He got drunk in her essence And slowly he forgot what it meant to be alone and sad. They travelled the world together… He called it celestial bliss. But with each waking moment he spent at her side, He knew the inevitable will happen. But it happened too soon. One day ...
