Wish

Scatter the ruins of my life in the sea, For as long as I know, I have stood by the shore. My tears added to its salinity,My thoughts have evoked those waves to release.

Unsaid

The mist of past is lifting Someone wants me to see There may be a new day breaking Gold and crimson is set free Did I say I past many oceans Many mountains did I see Though eyes remained forever closed Gold and crimson did set free With paper thin divisions And passage wide andContinue reading “Unsaid”
