The Lonely Season

The Lonely Season

I have faced life’s forces of needless antipathy;
conflicts occuring without reason;
having discovered true love’s proclivity;
I’ve entered life’s lonely season.

Love is the undercurrent of life’s every wave;
it is the gold standard, all seek;
there is no adversity, we’

Nostalgia

Nostalgia

Why do so many just yearn for the past;
becoming that not so secret longing?
It seems, to many, that good times never last;
is nostalgia our lack of belonging.

What is that attachment to home sweet home;
permanently etched in our mind;
especially in old age; when we’

Whispers Of Silence

Whispers Of Silence

Sometimes we sense thoughts on our mind;
that seem to come from a distance;
whispers of silence; from a kingdom, divine;

Yesterday's Dust

Yesterday’s Dust

I’m a molecule of being; blowing in the wind;
my significance; fading away;
my days in the spotlight, have come to an end;
I am the being of yesterday.

An insignificant fleck of yesterday’s past;
blowing in the wind; moving on;
my physical being was
