Happy birthdays! :D

this poem is special as the person to whom its dedicated :)) keeping friends, one of the virtues i know, but tend to forget easily:(   Secret in the Steel   As always, blank piece of paper That screams at me with its whiteness Much like the storm of the dreamer And nothing like the silence… Secret in the Steel   Where are all those, promised words? Lost somewhere between the lines I`m cursed to seek something there Which cannot be found A secret in the Steel…   And it is there where did i learned From someone who appear just as small That true strength is to forgive Not to destroy…   A secret to one that is known to her Smile hidden under all those masks Many of which cannot be heard By the cry of the past… Secret in forgiving…

Touched of light and cast into darkness
To dream about all things that should be lived
Lost in songs and embraced by Silence
To live the things that should be dreamed…
 
And cursing the moments that didnt happen
So long ago, as they should be
Instead of them there is only Silence
Part of my soul, universe of my wish…
 
Waiting for that song, that will never end
For her words, in which heaven sleep
Seeking for the music that will never rest
Across her voice, across eternity…

ah...I shall give wit to one on the spur.  I will take three objects from in front of me at this desk and then write a few lines of prose
 
speaker
light
picture
 
 
On light obscured paper, bind
a picture from the mortal mind
of thoughts of bliss and agony,
on dreams of love and felony.
The speaker tells a truth of sorts
A photo captures light but thwarts
a vision of mind's feelings there
the unseen verse, tangential fare.

[SIGSEGV]

Struggle of an introvert
 
I walk around, faceless
I live my live unnoticed
wondering if I'll even be missed
every day I live a little less
 
I stand in the crowd
but I feel so alone
I want to go home
or scream out loud
 
being alone I fear the most
silence is my enemy
hollowness my company
fear cripples my ghost
 
my head just blacks out
my tongue a frozen lump
my god I feel so dumb
why can't I open my mouth

havent written poems for looong time. This one came to me recently on the cold winter morning. The one inspiring me, knows about it already :)
 
Your eyes are closed You feel…yes, you feel the essence of sorrow. Not those senseless thoughts of this world Or fears of tomorrow. You feel shabby, ragged and old Your thoughts, your poems, your feelings are nothing Cold. But weird longing pain Keeps you alive. Or maybe insane. You know the answer As for you know and feel and absorb the core of the universe In you. ** ** ** ** Your eyes are closed You feel the touch of the familiar breath On your cheek. Is it real? Tristesse of your inner being Suddenly loses its meaning For and instant moment Of eternity. ** Your eyes are wide open and glare. They stare into the neverending Dark and everlasting Tunnel of my eyes Filled with surprise.   ** Are you alive? Smile.

here is another improv - from the moment I am in:
 
the hollow in this darkened place
grows larger than the day is long
the empty here, a hurting trace
of once the bluebird's trilling song

Happy birthdays! :D

Happy birthdays! :D

Let me tell you what I know.
You cast a shadow, watch it grow.
You chuckle to yourself, you smile,
Enjoy your doing for a while.
 
You listen to the screams of pain
For which that shadow is to blame,
You take your sit in the front row
Devouring the horror show.
 
Now, as the victim turns to dust
And as that shadow turns to lust,
Your heart is twitching satisfied.
Another soul’s been mortified.
 
After some time the screaming stops,
The show is done, the curtain drops.
You then proceed to play with light,
But find yourself engulfed by night. 
 
You shake your head in disbelief, 
You turn again searching relief,
But when you turn the road’s not there,
There’s only darkness everywhere.
 
A shiver strikes your fragile spine,
What instinct speaks you can’t decline.
For now it comes to take its toll,
It yearns for your expensive soul.
 
You should have known, the truth was there,
In black and white under your stare.
You wish to leave…”Oh no, dear friend”
“You stay right here, enjoy the end.”
