Poem 023 Wrapped in silence


Wrapped in silence, deep and still, an ear waiting on that somber voice
within the shadows arose a chill, came a vision to rejoice

Across the moonlight like angles sing, danced the sweetest harmony
what beauty, what passion brings, she touched my heart and set it free

From her hand the subtlest strokes, painted an ardent mood
and in that moment the silence broke and pierced thy inner solitude.

07/12 Helsinki, Finland


I woke from a dream, fixing my eyes on the unseen shadows of the dark room and began tracing the steps of the dream that had just left my grasp.  I got up, sat at a table in the corner of the room and stared out at the moon. (more…)

Poem 024 Not a leaf stirred


Not a leaf stirred, not a foot print left behind, as I sneaked pass the watchful dragons
paradise, rebirth, immorality, the oracles of human time, questions

Without a word, without an image, in that brief moment when the clouds have cleared, silence
where the emotion takes over the intellect, I was made aware

I was told to look at my reflection, to face our illusions, told that joy lies in the desire,
true love can be birthed in a blink of an eye and then never dies
worship is charity and nothing else

Poem 025 When I woke up in the morning


When I woke up in the morning, felt like all I had was gone,
I felt like I was empty inside, something outside was wrong

The wind blew, leaves scattered to the stream, standing on its margins, I held onto this dream
I wonder, how it can be, repeating the music of the rain, I was alone here, unable to explain
The world she spins around me, love can never change and though I did not embrace it, feelings still remain

When I woke up in the morning, I lost my right from wrong, I felt like I was empty inside, felt like all I had was gone

Poem 026 To play in life


To play in life, a singing song, the hands of a vanishing moon
is reaching out, my heart’s loose strings and draws it up in tune

That loving touch, I’m missing, my love I lost through tears
is reaching out, I saw you go, hasn’t vanished through the years

And now, I’m truly lonely, among but still alone,
though the strings, of my heart, so well in tune, has lost that loving tone

  • Thanks for visiting

    Usually behind a cup of coffee waiting for the world around me to wake up I entered today’s thoughts about yesterday’s activities into my travel journal. I’m not a writer, so I’ll apologize in advance if I jump around or seem confused. These are just the thoughts of a young man who left his possessions behind and who believes that getting lost is how one finds oneself.
