The Hidden Beauty
The Hidden Beauty The fruitless tree stands tall and proud Housing toneless birds who sing out loud. Brightest lights its shadow shrouds, Unique within the thousand crowd. Sitting beneath the greyest cloud. A slab of marble with the...
White Forest
White Forest Tiny flakes gently tap the ground, And cover the forest in velvet white. My feet make that crunching sound As I trudge forth through its light. The silver shine on every tree, Lines a gentle blissful trail. So much...
Too Afraid
Too Afraid Slowly floating through a sea of silence My soul shivers in icy winds. My thoughts sail an endless cruise Body slammed through waves of violence. Light shines on the bluish tints Of aching flesh, badly bruised. Shattered...

Goodbye The darkness settles in A blanket so very cold. This day is one that comes, We have all once been told. The lesson has been learnt As we have all grown old, And days fly by so quickly As time continues to fold. Do not blame...

The Fool
The Fool Deep within the darkness of my soul Where no one has ever dared touch, A man has left the widest hole And I fear the pain may be too much. For each and every single day I see him flirt with another suitor, It makes me hurt...
