I call; my voice falls on deaf ears – Words echoing into the void They’re searching for a listener, And the person who’ll chase my fears I beg you, if you hear my cry You’ll give me a signal at last So that I may have my answer; May know the truth before IContinueContinue reading “Across the void”

Forbidden
At love’s mercy she cries softly Dreaming of another’s body In the darkness, the cold silence Of the doubt that binds her firmly Is it so wrong? – she asks as fear Keeps her vision blurred, so unclear; The demon’s voice inside her mind Is taunting all that she holds dear And trappedContinueContinue reading “Forbidden”

I let you in, for I told you A secret that’s close to my heart You passed it on, without a thought Now a careless rumour is sprung I gave a piece, a part of me That I hadn’t dared share before And you turned your back, callously What a ripe mess now hasContinueContinue reading “Betrayal”
