wind
Fall in here
into this room
into this life
into this home
like a golden leaf
floating through the window
on a warm summer breeze
A gentle push
that changes your way
and brings you
to me
I´m waiting for you

Delusion
Away from the crowd and rays of the sun
are the moments I cherish the most,
It is when, your wisdom
outbreaks from the dam of your lips,
which usually gurgles teases, jokes and laughter
(not intended for me, of course not)
you voice your
dreams and aspirations
painting a rainbow
on the dark night's sky,
and somewhere else aswell...
as well as your insecurities
in a sober expression...

Losing to Win
I lost you the moment I won you,
Coz you are not ME,
You belong to yourself,
You think like yourself,
You speak like yourself,
You sing like yourself,
You dance like yourself,
You laugh like yourself,
You cry like yourself,
You live for yourself…
You are not mine…
For me, it’s fine…
Coz I love to stay with you,
Battle of opinions, I love to play with you…
Why twinning every time?

In Another Place
In Another Place
a soft breeze
drifting through an open window
hung with net curtains
the faint perfume
escaping
from an open book
the creak of a floorboard
cracking
above you
the shadows
caught dancing through the doorway
in a dim lit room
the taste of honey
clinging
on a teaspoon
the feel of a scarf
on your face

Spring
Silence
real total silence
wouldn’t be so bad
what´s cruel is that you never get
total silence
you just get
enough noise
to remind you
how beautiful music is
but you never
get to listen
to a full song
Not enough
but just enough
Friday 24th April 2020 9:05 pm
real
Are you
a myth?
Some fairy tale figure
made in my heart
Or do you breathe
do you have lungs
that suck in the air
and a heart pumping blood
through your veins
If I catch you
in the end
will I feel
soft warm skin
in my hands
Or a cloud of smoke
disappearing
through my fingers

Wildflower Wishes
Bury me in a blanket of wildflowers,
nutured by morning dew,
where lilacs perfume the air,
jasmine lights up the night,
wind and rain serenade gardenias,
delicate roses are protected by bushy thorns,
forget-me-nots bloom...
where dandelion wishes
brings me back to you.

Our (Mis)Fortune
Your hand slips into mine,
the fortune-teller notices
our smiles with glittering eyes
she’s convinced
there’s a future between us
she smiles & invites us in
Laying down cards one by one
it reveals the betrayal and secrets
that will keep us
from the love that has swept us into a whirlwind
We turn to each other stunned
but a laugh begins,
she replies, “Sorry, no refunds”

A Bracelet Of Daisies
A Bracelet Of Daisies
She made me a daisy bracelet
And twisted the stems round my wrist
We swore we would never forget
the sun slowly set as we kissed
And for a short while that was true
love blossomed like that daisy chain
but those white petals never grew
the green shoots were twisted in pain
It hurts when you’re given a heart
that unnourished withers and ...

...Mosca And Bees...
Love is a mosca biting the aorta.
I clutch my chest to qualm the swarm of egregious sting, translating into certain sentences.
There is nothing to say when you bite the fruit, when the soul is in ravenous hunger...Why not wait until I rot?
My soul will always be old...
Days of everything from spectrums and orbits. Nights without use of the eyes... My extinguished love affair ...

17 and a half
Coastlines guard us along our way,
As we gaze and point to places during our stay.
Cold and fresh as we were weeks away from May,
"I love you" were the only things I could say.
Losing bags with cards for the year,
One too many expensive glasses of wine and beer.
Canvases and paintings in the rear,
You are my only peer.
I took you to a special place,
Despite my...

Coronaverse
Humanity's gone into hibernation
Our focus has shifted to survival
Coronavirus has a bright side
We've changed since its arrival
Mortal danger pushed us together
New-found solidarity is a boon
Survivors will emerge stronger
Dont self-pity or despair too soon
Love can prevail over evil
But humility must come into its own
The era of complacency is over

The Side Kick
The Side Kick
A purring cat
Sat before a raging fire
The smell of cinnamon buns
Outside the snow falls
Rubbing away ice on a window
Looking out into the whiteness
A smile caught
In the reflected dusk
New buds bursting
From green shoots
The blue sky
Flecked with white clouds
Raindrops dripping from trees
The fresh cool air
Mirrors in the pond

Cold
Just lay your hand
in mine
when I´m shaking
because the frost
is running through my veins
Just lay your hand
in mine
when my eyes flicker
and all I can see
is darkness
Just lay your hand
in mine
you don’t have to do
anything
you don’t have to say
anything
Just lay your hand in mine
I just need to know
I´m not alone
out here
in the cold

Arrhythmia
She hid in my chambers
Stored her music in right atrium
As quiet as she stayed
The songs she would whisper
Danced loudly in my veins
I tried to drown her lyrics out
But the blood rushed all of
Her secrets to my brain
Every ventricle has coagulated
Memories that are clinging to
Walls inside my heart
Causing sclerosis clouding my
Better judgment to push her a...

Young Love By the Sea
Here we are, alone by the sea,
bursting with joy at finding each other.
There’s a wonderful, giddy feeling,
as if all nature were smiling.
The diamond on your finger gleams
like the shining path
of the sunrise on the water.
Our wedding bands were forged
from family rings and new gold.
They join us and our families
in the ancient, unbroken circle of life.
We are like the pla...

Vra Vra Vroom
I lost my vra vra vroom
The day you got your diagnosis
Felt joint tomorrows wither
With the growth of what we knew
You – with your mother’s heart
And dragon’s roar
Saving me from lions
Or bullies, or bees...
My sister, my confidante,
My best friend
Entombed within the capsule
Of your hypobaric oxygen chamber
I stand outside and count the miles

Solar return
instances of mesmerizing glimpses vivify and lend clarity into an understanding of soul.
evocation leaves an everlasting mark as two twin flames embark from a space of divine love to create fate
meticulous minds pick a place and time, upon your arrival show a sign that's vital, gravity pulls us in for a kiss as our hearts meet.
my greatest wishes grant admission, a star is born and with t...

Go away
Forget me please
I scream at you
as you knock on my door
with tears in your eyes
in that black dress
once again
I hit you
with all my force
push you away
and slam that door
into you face
I hear you cry
in the rain
and I know
you´ll be back
I can´t kill
a memory

There was a girl made from sand
She slept underneath the sun
All of her life
She conformed to the raging sea
That crashed and carried her
The wind carried the glass girl
Until she appeared on the beach
She walked carefully, as to not cut the

this world is a universe
for she is a world
in herself
at every turn beautiful;
a billion flowers
in any garden of gloom
would bloom to her smile;
her existence is life
her instance pride
with sadness shied away
the swooned heart
travels miles in a beat;
every sweet smell
reminds me of her
the earthy perfume
rain sends forth
the flavored whiff

Love Blossoms
Every year
In her own time
She comes
Our moments are brief
But this I can rely on
Her scent is sweet
Her beauty exquisite
O, how I long for the days
When our eyes finally meet

Empty
Hello, can anyone hear me?
Hello, are you still there listening to my cries?
Listening to me as I fall on my knees, feeling so empty as this world falls apart
Hello, God! I need you! We all need you!
Our world slowly falls and we all begin to feel empty wanting human contact, human touch
God silently watches us and our empty lonely hearts
Waiting, quietly, for us all to call his ...

Lost Letter
Last conversation
Stuck on replay
Wrote a letter
Scribbled on a few pages
Just to fall into the crevices
Of my heart
Words missing to a story untold
About two strangers afraid
To see what might unfold

Blank Paper
I start the day with little to no inspiration
Much like everyone else in the world
I also start this poem
With the repetitive voice of exasperation
The sirens are blazing late tonight
As souls are being set on fire
But because of some peoples' perseverence
Loved ones' bodies are also being set alight
Recreational parks are not essential
Travelling out of the wa...

pity flower
sometimes
I forget
what you are:
just a flower
swaying to
the directions
of foul winds;
rooted,
yet can’t stand
your ground;
looted off
your perfections
for reasons lewd
you pursued
colors faded
and gone
gone into a world
a life where
pretty flowers
don't belong

The Flower
Once when I was young I chanced upon a flower
Wild and free it was the most beautiful thing I had seen
And I wanted it for my own
To care for this flower
To show it off to the world
This beautiful flower that was my own
Through spring and summer
I watered, I watched and I helped it to grow
And the flower basked me in its glory as it did so
But I had to le...

coffee and me
coffee, me, and no one around
I listen to me, I talk to me, decide life
we imagine, dream, fantasize
some of that is said out loud
some added to my notes
some sent out into the universe
every sip brings me back to earth
and then we go again

Healing Muses
When you felt so alone,
drowning in an ocean of storms,
with no place to call home,
I was here all along,
sending you love
and healing energy.
I’m happy to see
you feel me,
on this poetic journey.

Illumination
occult curriculum, whispers of the ancients, leave for letting out secrets
oil lamp kindling catching flames; shining begotten light from passerbys
in between classes, shifting penrose stairs lead into underlying framework on occasion
halls lined with rooks adjacent and curators searching for a select
rites of secret passageways proclaimed, karma to the dark is just a means to an end

Fill me.
Missing life. Empty streets. Cold hearts.
Covering your face what you once criticised on stranger's faces.
Missing love. Empty hearts. Cold air.
Covering the flowers in your heart, the strings of my guitar.
Missing music. Empty stages. Cold rooms.
Covered ears, listening to scary news, not to music anymore.
Missing passion. Empty beds. Cold skin.
Covering all lu...

Into the Wild
The seeker seeks, the searcher finds,
The adventurer travels around his own mind.
The winds that blow and storms that shout,
and rock both tree and bush about.
The wanderer carries a burning torch,
To light his way with no remorse.
No solice does a watcher find,
when seeking troubles in his own mind.
Cold hearts grow, lone spirits become strong,

Dear One
I’ve told you so many times,
“I love you so much.
I’m so glad I found you.”
What else is there to say?

Cold Feet
For weeks I savored time with you,
wanted to be with you always.
I never asked: “Will you marry me?”
Instead, I asked
when can we wed?
You answered “As soon as we can.”
I left your apartment giddy with joy.
It was a cold New England winter.
I got cold feet as I drove to my lonely room.
What had I done!
Had I been impulsive?
Was this a doomed infatuation
with a new girl who had...
