"undress my heart with your mind,
fill the spaces within myself I've worked so hard to hide..."

I sadly stray from the warm stronghold
to walk the path through barren wasteland,
biting winds,
and freezing cold.

stripped of any protection,
led naked and astray.

the snow grows deeper,
as I walk through endless night
searching for the break of day.

but,

I never find it.

closing my eyes, I give my soul to the climate

far beyond my control.

retreating deep within myself,

I no longer feel the cold.

~
Solemnly

still is her body,

sealed shut

are her eyes

as the horizon crests

the snowy peaks

to reveal

its first sunrise.

There's this heavy thing on my chest
It makes me want to cry sometimes
It makes me want to die too

There's this unknown energy around me
It makes me want to feel so low
Lower than I have before

There's this thing that
Makes me choke for air
It pulls me far away from here

In the land unknown
Where souls only roam
They pass through the stars
And walk in the bars

They say they don't feel things
And past does not bother them
They convince me its better there
It's so much better than here

we are just beautiful
people walking around
thinking of other things

You are my oxygen in a choking world.
A warm breath of life, when everything in this world seem so cold.
Sizzles in my heart becomes a bonfire with your every healing touch.
The dark within dissipate.
With every word you whisper, love conquers hate.

You add Melody to my existence
When my life had no beat.
Composer of happiness,
My orchastra you perfectly complete.
You are my ocean of love.
Like a river to you I flow
Together we conquers of this world
Together hearts beating as one we grow.
Unspoken words between us not needed
Our hearts, it knows.

Social distance is the best,
Waving hands and, not shaking
You can touch your, lovely heart
Keep a distance, of 6 feet
Social distance is the best

To keep safe your, inner side
Dust mask is the, best to use
If you need to, touch a thing
Gloves are the best, as tactic
Social distance is the best

If you are with, the hands naked
Tissue paper, you should use
Give up all type, wandering
Social distance is the best

If you are in, dire need of
Cooking, washing, or cleaning
Be determined, with full care
Social distance is the best

Go to market, for a while
On fix hours as decided
Your getup should, as guided
Mask n glasses, hands in gloves
Social distance is the best

Come in hurry to, clean yourself
Twenty seconds, wash your hands
Destroy all things, which you can
Social distance is the best

If shows these lights, your character
It will be a great honour
I will salute to, you man
I will with you, as a fan
………..
Dr Zik's Poetry
Following her liveliness,
Catching up with her freshness,
I was resolute on confronting her,
Then I approached her,
Meeting her eyes,
How I wanted to say you look pretty,
How I wanted to embrace in her arms,
How I wanted to walk beside her for the lifetime,
How I wanted to covet her all for myself,
How I wanted to have her my reason to smile,
Instead I said we were not compatible enough,
Instead I said our love was fragile,
Instead I said she could find someone better in a while,
Instead I said it was better to move on with life,
Instead I cowardly said my head,
Instead I buried those feelings in my heart,
Instead I walked away.
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you...

Some creatures seek higher power

I seek ascension myself
So as to become my own higher power

Some seek wealth
Material possessions

I seek strength
Sustain myself when I am without material possession

Others seek fame
Flattery

I seek claim
Claim over my body
The actions it makes

I love how different goals and values are compared to everyone else

Maybe someday I will find myself reevaluating my definition of success
But I doubt it

Change this world maybe
Not myself

And end up all the things I wish to be
I don't believe in god so it's hard to find something to put faith in. So I just believe in myself. That's enough for now.
