Adrift Ship

Time will tell
If life is real
Make it true
When it is due

No man's land
In your command
Tried and tested
This is not contested.

Poker Face

All time serious
Is that your face?
No smile escapes your lips
When someone says hello, you glide your eyes away

Do you know?
In time you’ll get old and gray
Don’t run after the wrinkles
Old age catches you quickly

Get warm and be true
Warm your inside chill and spill the ice
Soft hearts are better
Than a cold stare turned to stone

Hasty Love

Ah, love...hard to control
Take mine so as not to hurt
Cut the budding feelings
Burn to ashes

Bitter taste on my mouth
Dry the tears inside
Toss it away in the sea
To sail beyond

Dark of the night
Stops the wondering
New day will start
Ah, just the memory remains…

Mind's Flounderings

Hear the rythm of my mind
A train of thoughts uncut
Flickering images flashing
Going round and round.

Tiring as it seems
Thinking is to unwind
Physical exertions not enough
Rest this soul of mine.

Seaching for answers
My eyes is an enemy
A solid rock boundary
That shuts vivid imagination

What am I thinking of?
Tis not love, not life either
The matter of fact is...
The answer to my wondering spirit.

Ambiguity of Life

Life is not what it seems
Just a reflection in the lake
Murky depth beckons
Churning the calm surface

Can you see?
With a splatter if rain
The mud shift sideways
Gleaning the swirling kaleidoscope

What is the color of life?
Is it black or white?
The grainy picture painted
It mocks reality.
