Simple Thought

Waiting...
Just until
Someone comes
To claims me...

Nature's
Mutation
Tossed away
From all care...

What You Feel

What you feel
Is not illusion
Only shadow
By confusion
Two eyes cry
For one solution
Desperate for
Resolution...

Self Image

Territory
Who's
Am I on? ...

There is but
One
Proprietor...

How could I be
Trespassing
Here? ...
I just wonder!

Sincerely

What you feel
Is not illusion
Only shadowed
By confusion
Two eyes cry
For one solution
Desperate for
Resolution...

Paradox

Why riddles?
Because I could never say
Exactly what I mean
Straightforward in a world
Essentially structured
On grounds of paradox...

Reasons

There must be reasons
Why the eyes linger
One picture over
Another...

What then is captured
By instinct allured
A stroke of wonder
Remember-?

A Fact

Day becomes night
Black to white
Shadow reflects behind the light...

High is the flight
Withdrawn from sight
Returned anew all the more bright..

All These Things I Have Found

All these things I have found
Take from me, take my pride....
But take them in such a way,
That neither the potsherd breaks
Nor the diamond cracks...

You Won't Last

You won't last
In this sleep
If your forgetfulness
Be a halo of beauty
And if your heart wants
Only one complaint
That will be sufficient...

The Unveiling

With the unveiling
You turn your face away
It is because you know
The meaning of the names
But you do not know
The beckoning has no voice
Therefore, there in no sound....
