Pollen
Even in our distant placements
The wind carries your pollen
Covering my petals in the soot of your love
Oh how I wish our roots could be together
Sharing the beauty of rainfall as it soaks through the soil
I am one without you, but we are none without each other
Make this time go by, farewell my lover

Oh my marigold
All I’ve ever known
Was love with no beginning
All I’ve ever known
Was love with no meaning
All I’ve ever known
Was love was forever leaving
Oh where is my marigold?
Searching every crevice
Climbing every mountain
Before I knew it, I stood tall and thin
Drained of the hunt
I rest my head on a trunk
Vivid dreams brought me to your fields of elation
Restless I press further

Welcome to the light
Returning to your soul I sleep
Calmed by the tenderness of your heart
You are my moonlight at my darkest hour
And my sunlight in my brightest moments
Guiding me on a path of fruition
Oh my marigold,
Fostered by the droughts of your past
I wish to reflect the light in which you radiate
Sowed together by mere serendipity
Our roots intertwined by all that is divine

Lost
I am lost
Lost in the fact that I no longer know what the future holds
Lost in my ability to be good partner
Lost in my ability to perform at work
Lost in my thoughts
I have crashed my ship into rocks
Stranded on this figment of reality we call life
Drawn between comfort and risk
Will I ever find a way to mend this sickness

Map
A world of uncertainty
Leaves life without a meaning
Plotting your journey on a map with form
Distance and time spearing you to the floor
Spontaneity and the notion of irrationality
Appear to make one’s life more fruitful
As it is not micromanaged

My Eighth Wonder of the World
I have kissed the feet of a goddess
For it is the foundation of which she walks on
Grounding her to the magnificent wonders of earth
From the moment we met, I considered you the eighth wonder of my world
Undeniably mysterious, but graciously admired
Your awe is of that which cannot be written
Filtered through the eyes of my existence
Exposing your soul with every sentence

A world without you
The moments with you seem surreal
From the instant we met, my nimble heart hasn’t been the same
An overloading affinity of pure ecstasy
A dam couldn’t withhold my love for you
Your gentle hands of solicitude, soothing my thin hair
I find peace in knowing, you will always be here
Love is an understatement
Instead I found true purpose in the body of a stranger
Before we me...

Promise
Embodied by words of your serpent tongue
Fully grasping the notability of our verbal trust
Invisible, but seemingly faithful
A trust, which I deem imperishable
Also a trust in which you lack accountability
Oh so dear to my heart
You’ve broken down and swallowed my faith
Dissolving within the lies of your stomach
With my mind dragging along the earthy soil by a chain

Glory
Glory isn’t always everything
Striving for such magnitude can lead to issues
For I myself have singed off the edges of my ambition
Once fresh and bountiful , now lay few and fatigued
Glory is only fruitful if maintained consistently, similar to that of a corn field
Glory, representing the bright flame of a fire
Attracting individuals from far and wide
Just because you are cl...

Morning Air
Tranquilly awoken by the chirping of robins
The sun narrowly gleaming over the hazy horizon
Fresh dew providing my senses with clarity as this new dawn arrises
Appreciating the rush of crisp air as it permeates throughout the room
Whilst also savoring the warmth of the quilts and the comfort of my lover
As yesterdays troubles fade in the sunlight
I have awoken to begin anew

Book of Life
Have you ever thought of life as a book?
Initially you start out slow
Experiencing your first steps as the main character
Striving to unravel the mysteries betwixted within the bindings
Gathering contextual clues introduced as each page is tenderly turned
Unfolding the framework of our existence upon pages that were formerly empty
With a great understanding of the plot among us

Tidings
Your happiness cannot be measured when you are around others
One’s happiness can only be measured when alone
Detaching yourself, perhaps from a distorted lifestyle of what seems true
Clearing your thoughts of all external influences
Perched from an outward perspective
You seem to find answers looking inward

Portrait
Live a life knowing that mistakes are apart of the process
We just have to live past those mistakes

Blood Sport
If you are ever feeling lost, remember that life itself is a jungle.
Vast and unending.
Everything is bound to kill you.
Life gets humid from time to time.
Sweat constantly rushing down your creased forehead.
The pain of your soles treading through the forestry.
As you observe your surroundings, the same landmarks present themselves.
Internal thoughts of misery and confu...

Lioness
Euphoric interventions upon your soulful presence
Cradled between the wisdom of my words
Providing a bed of console and a blanket of assurance
Observing the cadence of your breathing
Yearning each moment as it elapses
Tenderly caressing my fingers of nurture through the mane of my lioness
An independent being of driven fortitude and fierce dispositions
Peacefully resting upon ...

An oasis of love
Your love is that of rain
The roots of my heart quenching your vital sustenance
Once a desert of oblivion
A single acacia stood limber
Dry rot infesting the trunk of my disposition
Birds vacant upon the branches of my shoulders
Continuous mental sandstorms battering my bark
Peeling away, exposed to the elemental destruction of the sun
Desolate lumber for which I had embodie...
