strange freedom
nivek 7d

poor dog
nivek Jul 15
the shepherd across the way has an anger management disorder,
quite pronounced and hard to deny, I wonder whether He is in fact possessed by some unwholesome spirit, His shouting fills the valley  
His curses toward His dog very colourful to say the least. Poor dog.

its hard to fit in when you carry around pockets full of dreams
and if truth be known you have no wish to hammer yourself a round peg into a square hole. So you wait and search for the way out of a life you really do not belong in, its a secret you were born with, that refuses to be ignored....
nivek Jul 15
it is not something you can share
'the impossible dream'

the only way you knew how to
'was, is, to live it'

to have a chance at fulfilling a dream-like-reality
and in so doing being fulfilled.

while another listens out for song

a kink in the road
an agonising wound

limping in the way
traversing the deep

a single candle flame
a cupped hand

fire in the sky
one star to follow.
