Everytime I start to speak, my thoughts are seen as bullets; And you feel the need to raise your shields, closing yourself in it, Not knowing your closed ears are like closed fists holding the grenades; And so we sleep it off and wake up to the next day like a war did not happen, … Continue reading No war, peace zone

A child and his dreams
The child wakes up from his dream one day,Thunders, Slams, Screams, and BamsWas it a nightmare? No, not yet…Before childhood’s magic bubble snapsLet’s play another round and take a nap The child wakes up from his dream one day,Thunders, Slams, Screams and BamsWas it a nightmare? No, not yet…The heart feels all but the mind … Continue reading A child and his dreams
Smiling, on repeat
Smiling as one enters, curtsies as would beBut for all the times hitherThe crying heart repeats Pumping with every heartbeat that slowly drains the heatWhen will it stop pretending to be happy on repeat Photo by Julia Avamotive on Pexels.com

Perfect Morning
Peace and quiet painted on colors of the dawn, like sprinkles of sunshine on cupcake; The sleeping leaves snuggled into blankets of sunlight; Branches glistened with crystal-clear dew as they wake; like the fresh rustle of mint breath in the morning and a symphony of sweet songs by the Robins.

Sweet sound of opium poppy
