We are
two lonely stars
shrouded in the veil
of obstinate distance
glancing at each other
every so often

Together yet far apart

Sometimes I wonder
how long would it be
before we break and fall
into the abyss of oblivion
never to see each other
alight once again
I was the Goddess and you were a mortal
yet I was the one who followed you
like a supplicant

night after night
I left my bedchamber
& the demiGod in deep slumber on my bed

swathed in the shrouds of darkness
I kept coming to worship you
quotidianly

but it wasn't enough
for you were never satiated
even after reaping all that I possessed

and trying to make an immortal out of you
is now obliterating the light
within my heart's eyes

thence go back to your realm
you can't dwell in mine no longer
& my knees can't kiss the hassock anymore
A dusting of snow
Under a pink sky
A flash of gold
Where the narcissi
Bloom
Too early.
Observation of the weather
We came here as strangers
And left as friends
Only to come back
As strangers once again
Writing a poem is not challenging, but writing something you appreciate is challenging.
You died in 2023 and your dad died in 1977.
After living for 54 years, you went to Heaven.
You have lost your life and that is very sad.
Now you have been reunited with your dad.
You did charity work just like your father did.
Your dad loved you and you were his only kid.
As your fans grieve, they're sad and depressed.
Your life ended after you went into cardiac arrest.
When CPR was performed, your heart was restarted.
But you still died and your fans are broken-hearted.
You died a few weeks before you would've turned 55.
Your fans are devastated because you didn't survive.
DEDICATED TO LISA MARIE PRESLEY (1968-2023) WHO DIED ON JANUARY 12, 2023.
Maybe the fact that I am a human,
that this very moment could be my last
makes living more beautiful.
The universe speaks,
unveiling cosmic mystery
through the
subtlest
messages

You are on your path,
so listen to
the hummingbird
he'll tell a story
