Athu Feb 2019
I walk down a foggy corridor where I find a door
Light beams shine through its slits piercing the air
I reach for the door and great darkness seeps into the air
As I walk hoplessly in the endless night
A dim sliver of warm sunlight finds my hand
Walking towards it, this dim light shines brighter in the dark than all the stars in the sky

In the tumltous waters, a ship set sail
beaten by the madness of waves

In the distance, landfall drew close, an island of serenity shone in the stormy night

A mirage it maybe, for a ship beaten by the madness of waves never sailed again

Carrying the mat onto the mountain top
I Lay it down on the cold tattered ground
Laying down on it, I look into the starry night sky
As the sky stares down into me
Soon the earth and the heaven collide
A perfectly imperfect harmony they weave in and out like the threads of that mat I brought
Thoughts so loud, run silent in my mind
A witness I lay, in between the mountains and the stars

On the day before you left, you smiled so brightly as you left my car.
The sound of that smile echoes endlessly inside the chambers of my heart

On the day you left, you gave me jumbled words and glassy eyes,
Images of those eyes are still so vivid on the canvas of dark nights

On the day after you left, memories seiged my mind,

And as I lay there a lifeless form of tear and regret, the truth came over me,

You molded an anchor of lies on our feeble ship,

They anchored us on a great shore, but at last great waves have swept us away

Grains of sand may only meet once.

They dance to the rhythm of the winds and the beat of the seas

Great stars burn so bright.
They invite all into their warm light

For you are the stars and the sand,

Invite me into your warm light and if
we must only meet once,

Lets us burn as the stars and dance like the sand
Let us meet

The devil spoke words of wisdom among the mortal men
For those who listen are easily swayed
There I stood applaunding
Athu Jan 2019
In the vast yellow sea
I awoke from a shallow slumber
At the horizon the golden sphere breaks the darkness
Colors of light hide the dotted sky
Alone, colors of light warm my shivering heart
