The Illusion of Tomorrow

You pace the corridors of unlit tomorrows,

A thief of dreams and an heir to sorrows.

Yet the present, a whisper cloaked in gold,

Holds truths too radiant, too sharp to be told. 

Let go of the chase, embrace what's near,

The present is all you need to hear.

Life after death...

Seven minutes past eleven,
Heaven.

Just before midnight,
Bright.

An elder speaks of death,
Breath.

"Do we wake in the skies?"
"Only love never dies."

you are enough...

On some days, you’ll be the new moon,
On others, full and bright—
May you come to understand,
You’ll always guide the night,
You have always been enough, and always will be.

On temporary death...

To die a thousand deaths in brief reprieve,
Each breath a plunge, a sweet reprieve to grieve—
Returning, wiser, in what life can leave.

Seeds of Joy and Sorrow

I planted joy and sorrow both,
In places where my heart once spoke.
And under their shade, in years ahead,
Some will smile, while others tread.

Happiness or sadness, they’ll feel the trace,
Of emotions I left in that quiet space.
For what we plant, though unseen by the eye,
Grows roots in the hearts of those who pass by.

Dichotomies: Inspired by A Tale Of Two Cities

It was a time of silence, it was a time of sound,
It was a fleeting loss, it was a victory found,
It was the calm of night, it was the break of dawn,
It was a dance of light, before the darkness was gone.

It was the cry of joy, it was the wail of despair,
It was the warmth of love, it was the cold of care,
It was the breath of life, it was the silence of death,
We held it all so tightly, ...

I'm not your soldier, I'm your son.

You marched through life with battle scars,
A heart trained to survive, not to feel.
In silence, you buried all the wars,
Teaching me to stand but never heal.
But I needed love, not the weight of a gun—
I'm not your soldier, I'm your son.

My favourite thing about music?

My favorite thing about music?
Lying on my bed, sleepless,
Challenged by every note I’ve taken in.
My heart, so full—of joy, passion,
The will to rise, to do, to be.
No greater feeling than this.

Endless threads

In your eyes, I trace the line of joy you bring to me.
To your bliss, I cling—
Not just a fleeting thing,
But a bond that time can't free.

To my crush

You, unknowingly, have treated me with a kindness that lingers in the shadows of my heart.

How exquisite it is to love someone without them ever suspecting it.

I’d prefer if not even a whisper of this reached your ears.

 

When you appear, fear sharpens its blade and pierces my chest.

For you, I would traverse the ends of the earth, unearth the most elusive treasures,

and offer th...

On Neurodivergence (Inspired by Khalil Gibran)

And a seeker asked, “Tell us of Neurodivergence.”

And he said:

Your mind is the vast ocean,
where waves rise and fall with the rhythm of your thoughts.
It is the storm that churns the waters,
revealing depths unseen by the shores of conformity.

Just as the pearl forms from the oyster's irritation,
so too does your uniqueness arise from the world's friction against your spirit.

And ...

Empaths

They feel more.

Grief flows through them
like a river
through open hands.

Sadness
like echoes
in empty chambers.

Chaos
dances
in their veins.

Built to transmute
the dark
into light,

They bear
the weight
of the world’s pain.

Mental storms
rage within,
but in their storm
the earth finds
calm.

Nocturnal Sway

Your figure arcs gracefully,

Tracing gentle curves,

Perfectly in sync with the rhythm of the night.

We are our memories

We are our memories,fleeting yet strong,

Tied to places,to feelings that belong.

In every step,in every space.

We gather pieces of our own grace.

 

But in the end when time unwinds,

Memories slip through fingers,blind.

Death is the fading,the quiet release,

The death of all we've come to be.

My Darling Polymath and I [1]

We spoke of alluring arias, sweet melodies on high,

Then pondered the bursa of Fabricius, and how birds can fly.

Confucius gave us wisdom, his teachings ever clear,

Next, we explored dyadic deaths, where love and fear appear,

Existential quests, seeking meaning's thread,

Fractals' depths, where patterns endlessly spread.

 

With much more to explore beyond the letter F,

Our ...

Life's Dance

Life is a delicate dance between presence and absence,

a constant balancing act of being here,fully in the moment,

while also seeking deeper understanding and meaning(being lost)...

Whispers of winter

You were the seed, small and unyielding,

And I, the nurturing earth, patiently wielding,

Sunshine and rain, a constant embrace,

Together we bloomed, a garden of grace.

 

We thrived for seasons,

Your roots delved deep,

We danced with the sun,

Secrets we'd keep.

 

But winter whispered,a frost in disguise,

Chilling the warmth in your once vibrant eyes.

The Universe Dreams

Tiny dancers,atoms all,

A universe in every speck,

We're not just guests,but parts that fall,

The cosmos dreaming of its own effect.

Darkness eater...

I devour darkness...

Unlike a black hole's greedy maw,

I gulp down darkness with silent awe.

To shield the world from the depths of night,

To keep the world bathed in a glowing delight,

I munch on darkness,to let others shine,to keep them bright.

Unguarded

Vulnerability displayed,

Emotions conveyed,

Your gaze, a maze of perplexity,

Every twinkle, an epiphany, a history,

How terrifying it is, to see so clear,

Your story,your dreams,your tears...

THE little THINGS

THE little THINGS WE DO,

ENDEAR ME AND YOU,

THOSE THINGS ARE small,

BUT WHEN NEGLECTED THEY BUILD A WALL.

Exhale

In the night's embrace, lost in the moon's light...
I puff, blowing off steam, stars shimmering bright...
A quiet pursuit, smoke swirls with grace...
Post-smoke clarity, sanity prevails...
