The unknown someone

Known someone known someone
Known them for a while
Known someone known someone
Until They found someone

Known someone known someone
Before time never freed them
Known someone known someone
When nights just blinked away

Known someone...

The Thing That's Missing

Our garbage man's truck died.
I'm sad with all my heart
And the driver he tried,
But it just wouldn't start.

The owner who I know
Lives on the other street.
I watched the driver go
Up my road on two feet.

I do not have a car,
Fixing...

The Box I Tore

So many times, I have been told
"Please leave your comfort zone.
You do not have to be real bold,
When you fight wars alone!"

Sometimes we war against our self,
Ignoring danger signs.
As if somehow, we had a shelf
With maps of all our...

Before They Got Up

As I watch their trash sag,
Single dad and his kid,
A cat was in their bag.
On his ground is the lid.

My next door neighbor's kid
Is a decent boy, but
He didn't check the lid
To make sure it was shut.

The boy catches the bus.
Dad holds...

That Indian Lady

I kind of have a frown,
But when I walk in there,
Her store her hair is down.
All I can do is stare.

She's a sight to behold,
So much beauty within,
Though how hot or how cold;
I am there with a grin.

It's getting pretty rough.
She's...

Depression makes you weak and sad
Depression makes you fearful and palpitated
When anyone gets depression,they should go to a doctor
There are some medicines to choose to eat if suffer from...

Innominatus

Stars reflect
the light inside you
Their galaxy
our soul’s domain

New constellations
wait unchristened
To burn inside
— each heart to name

Can reality be a mystery

As the sun sets slowly behind the horizon it offers a variation that intises our imagination and moves in us many mysterious directions and outcomes. Develop sights within us that lays between reality and...

Unruly Flames

At this heart emotions lie untamed.
Destructive, unruly, unhinged.
Emotions I possess are as wild as fire,
Flames in the hands of a novice...

The Blinded Angel

She looks at mirror with tired eyes
She's not pleased, she sees everything she despise
She breaks the mirror for it's true nature
Yet cracks show her a dozen times—like curses written on paper

All she thinks is the way she looks,
And all...

Tell Me My Dear

~
Tell me you love me and you care
Tell me you're the sun that shines my days
Tell me when I'm worrying too much: it's alright
Although you left my message on seen, last night
Tell me you love me and never break my heart
Tell me you see me...

Landscapes

faces: a signature to who we are
a tapestry of your being, both night sky and stars

So many of them I see most of days,
As I begin my journey to my destination, most of days.
Yet the world around me isn't too kind
Most of the faces are...
