• [549] The Power of Silence

  

  In the silence, I finally sensed everyone’s inner lives. Some sit with their thoughts, some write down what they ignore during conversations, some switch places, denying their bodies the gift of stillness, and some meditate on God. Each person is at a different stage in life, yet all face similar battles within themselves.⁣⁣⁣⁣Silence is the…

• [548] Tides of Time

  

  I wash up on the shore of Tomorrow Island,⁣⁣Sun yet to rise⁣⁣Can I skip the worst parts?⁣⁣Could I? Should I?⁣⁣Don’t want to live in should haves,⁣⁣Just want to feel, I am.⁣⁣Where do you think we go⁣⁣when waves return to the ocean?⁣⁣All the sand upon my hand⁣⁣doesn’t slip when it has already rained here⁣⁣⁣⁣When life feels…

• [547] The Deadliest Sword

  

  Everything he saw ⁣merged before his eyes ⁣But before it merged ⁣Everything was distant⁣⁣Lost in his inner world⁣,he stood by the riverside⁣Holding the deadliest sword ⁣known to mankind⁣⁣A boat arrives and he sits⁣The boatman is smiling ⁣The warrior is smiling ⁣So he asks ‘Why?’⁣⁣The warrior recollects horrors ⁣He reflects on his inner demons ⁣He thinks…

• [546] How To Remember and Forget

  

  In one sweeping gaze⁣⁣⁣You can tear it all apart⁣⁣⁣Slippages of my past ⁣⁣⁣cut through my stoic civil war⁣It beats another life to unearth my anxieties⁣⁣⁣Yet it remains invisible, omnipresent⁣⁣⁣My blindspots become the battlefield of⁣the paradoxical dance of my intrusive fears⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣It doesn’t make sense ⁣⁣⁣to live a lie of purity ⁣⁣⁣I suffer rhythmically and ⁣⁣⁣make a…

• [545] Waking from The Winter Sleep

  

  I was knocked out by the secret in the air⁣⁣Dismantled by the yearning to touch her hair⁣⁣I wish to come home to the silence of my words⁣⁣I wish to come home to the thought of you⁣⁣Let’s meet behind the grief of yesterday⁣⁣Meet me in suspended animation ⁣⁣where we find a moment to explore⁣⁣The life before…

• [544] My Eyes

  

  The sacred feeling ⁣⁣the universe in your eyes⁣⁣The feeling of self a haze⁣⁣But a boundless connection to infinity⁣⁣⁣⁣It comes, it lifts, then fades away,⁣⁣A fall that stretches, in disarray⁣⁣Theories of life ripped away⁣⁣All instincts devoid of creativity⁣⁣⁣⁣The sacred feeling⁣⁣the moon in my eyes ⁣⁣From my room’s window⁣⁣I feel the celestial grace, a moment⁣⁣⁣⁣I carry out…

• [542] Come Home

  

  The answer is the simple thing denied⁣⁣⁣The obstacle is you in your own way⁣⁣⁣The present is tethered to the lifeless past⁣⁣⁣The future wails in denial of the present⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣You say things to others you want them to say to you⁣⁣⁣You hear echoes from them, memories fading like dreams⁣⁣⁣You see things in the margins known only to…

• [541] Rebirth of The Spectacular Inner Child

  

  The infinite world of the private⁣⁣entertains my waking moments⁣⁣It all begins with the images of a dream⁣⁣but I let it fade with the burden of reality⁣⁣I travel to a destination where I have never arrived⁣⁣The desire always wanting something new⁣⁣⁣⁣Once I arrived in a worldwhere I’ve only been in imagery⁣⁣I look around to be amidst…

• [540] Distant Intimacy

  

  A question that tears⁣⁣⁣the very earth you walk on⁣⁣⁣Each slight step you took⁣⁣⁣Towards the deceit of progress⁣⁣⁣Unwinds as you fall⁣⁣⁣to the familiar dreaded beginning⁣⁣⁣where forever dies at its end⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣When it’s all but a reverie⁣⁣⁣I cradle you in your peaceful sleep⁣⁣⁣The lullabies I sing take shape ⁣⁣⁣of nightmares ⁣⁣⁣for insomniacs of reality⁣⁣⁣Questions seep into dreams⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣They assume…

• [539] In Search of New Beginnings

  

  A blackbird soars, circling my tragedy⁣⁣Amorphous thoughts form in my mind⁣⁣⁣⁣I dare not brave its end ⁣⁣Nor even stand amidst its trance ⁣⁣to not be lost again⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣To be lost is to no longer be grounded⁣⁣⁣⁣It is not flying in the infinite sky⁣⁣⁣⁣It is a hopeless free fall ⁣⁣for a hopeful divine intervention⁣⁣⁣⁣It is a leap…
