Come; Together let’s cross the raging river Of broken dreams And new beginnings The weeping waters Telling stories Of forgotten loves Hopeless ambitions Lost in time Then rising again An echo, a whisper Of aching desire The deepest yearning For the human soul to find another who – just might share their vision

Stillness
How many moments pass me by While I try to capture one In a still frame, which never shows The truth, the life beyond . Hiding away the fierce laughter, And frowns of a troubled soul Alone in the endless expanse Of a vast sleepless void . What beauty sighs beyond my grasp? Butterflies sweptContinue reading “Stillness”
The other half
Sound of silence, Web of stillness First you tense, As emptiness Shocks your bones; Alone, afraid to Face the ghost within. But one day You’ll learn, you’ll grow Hearing the music In your soul; The friend, the lover Always there to Gently guide you home. Photographer: Robert Doisneau
To share a story
The time that I find myself a- slipping into the desperate clutch of madness; that is the time I know I need to write, to let out all emotion’s waves, channel them; Chasing them all into the day, for all to read the profanity of insanity’s whispering; the other voice inside my mind, itContinue reading “To share a story”

Connection
Sometimes it’s not what’s said or done Not words, but silences between Where an echoing stillness guides You to a place of quiet peace; There a secret space awaits, and Only now you dare to open Up to trust, whilst comforting eyes Teach a different kind of lesson Painting by Antoni Caba
Betrayal
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 hasContinue reading “Betrayal”
The Awakening: Chapters 5 & 6

Soon the festive rituals would begin, hosted by none other than King Melchior himself. Adrianna looked up to the heavens to find magenta and gold streaks saluting her eyes.
