'I will never get what I've hankered for,

So I shall not want to imagine that

My dreams will turn into reality;

This might appear too sudden now, but

I'm foreordained to be good for nothing...'

'Never shall you out of forlornness despond,

For answers looked for are engraved in your soul;

And when your thoughts, words and deeds correspond,

Your self will truly form many a bonafide bond.'

'You're going to hate me for saying this, but just keep going. Learn from your mistakes and move on. All writers had to start somewhere, and for 90% of them, that somewhere is a pretty messy place. I cringe a lot when I read my old stories.'

'The clear cold skies

of deep indigo

Bask in the enigma

of the inscrutable heavens

Upon a starlit night

They exult in the radiance

of a glorious half moon

Aglow with a golden light'

'This is the morning song

I sing to you,

rushing into the billow of your embrace,

ascending to the sky in your eyes,

flowing into your oceanic love,

eloping with your wind-withered soul…'

'My mind is no less than the winter haze

That has made our town its abode again;

The baneful mixture of smoke, fog, and mist

Obscures the sun just as thoughts cloud the truth.

The past is smoke and future orphic fog...'

'The real currency is in love, in the embrace of a friend, the kiss of a lover, or the smile of a child. Don’t waste your life chasing things that won’t change anything but your own life; chase those that will change the lives of others you care about.'

'Today as I flip through the dusty dailies,

The vagaries of nature read of and about

Storm my mind with impressions from the gory past

And subtly rain down sorrow, angst, and ill luck

I'd happened on not less than seven years ago.'

Today as I flip through the dusty dailies,The vagaries of nature read of and aboutStorm my mind with impressions from the gory pastAnd subtly rain down sorrow, angst, and ill luckI’d happened on not less than seven years ago. I then trod on affrighted streets of the scarred cityThat now stands stilled, stunned by nature’s play. Again…Delusion bested faith before; both now lie dead.I call to mind…

'Life

Is like a flourishing tree,

And every other person you know

Is its leaf.

Leaves are its beauty;

And some may not be more than a burden.

But at the end of the day

Leaves shed off.'
