Took some time out From the public eye Time to think and wonder About the reason why We strive to leave a mark Something to signify That we lived and that an echo Will carry on after we die

Confusion
Eyes, darting from left to right Heart, split in two Soul, dwelling half in dark and half in light Road, forking east and west Mind, grappling Body, yearning for from this search, a rest Spirit, torn midst night and day Questioning, is it true or false? Unknowing of the answer – is sheContinue reading “Confusion”
Lost
Wanderer, treading gingerly upon this broken path, as dried leaves crunch underfoot, remnants of a glorious summer; a time when the world was brighter, greener, fertile. Now, petals in decay, rotting fruit forgotten, their beauty lying only in a memory, distant and fading like a parting touch, goodbye kiss; tender, yet bringing the firmContinue reading “Lost”
Rules
Will you dare to break the rules, Defy what’s taught as right? Will you risk what you have won, For this new dream in sight? Will you overcome convention, And go against the norm? Will you redefine the purpose, For which you came to be born? Will you run up to the edge,Continue reading “Rules”
Freedom
Captured, by her eyes of steel It would be wrong to call them cold They’re only hardened against a world Which punishes those who feel Her passion, dark as night Hidden beneath false layers A guarded guise, heart opening Only to those with a certain sight Ruptured, your soul is caught Splintering beneathContinue reading “Freedom”

Stranger
Stranger, you taught me That some people care No condition Or strings attached You gave me hope Newly discovered I could be myself Without fear Stranger, you showed me Some people do dare To look gently Beneath the mask You gave me faith Absent awhile That from this facade I could peer Continue reading “Stranger”
You or me
I see you there, lost and alone Or perhaps not, perhaps You are fine and this is my mind, Playing tricks, seeing in your face A reflection of my pain, This place of empty hurt I see you there, and I want To take your hand, to reassure you That life will treat youContinue reading “You or me”
Fallen
You tried your very best, but Somehow it was not enough In those minutes, those hours When you had your chance to shine, It falls apart, it comes to pieces And dreams now hang, on the line. All that time spent chasing stars, Eyes set on the future you Abandoned the present and Now,Continue reading “Fallen”
Anxiety
In this anxious place This hopeless space The mind spirals away Trapped in thought Bars caging her heart She’s unable to start Inner voices pursuing Until she’s caught The shadows whirl Too strong for a girl To resist the touch Of her mocking plight And in silence she sits Her eyes desperateContinue reading “Anxiety”
