Is It Enough?

To heal my wounds with your kiss,
Is it enough to hope that you will
Steal away my heart’s knoll of pain.
Is it enough to be and only to be?
Thor throws his wrath
And my soul thaws with empathy
Is it enough to run away
From a life that has gone wrong?
This shameless infamy‘s
Touch brings an ecstasy
Of our immoral heathen.
Is it enough to love?

To hold you in my arms
And kiss your soul always.
Is it enough to have you
As a wife, a righteous half I’ll never be?
What more must it take to feel
Alive like the yellow sun of a mid
Summer's soothing day?
Is it enough to hold your heart
Prisoner of its own emotions?

To feel this soaring pain,
To know that hope will not be again
Here for me to gain
Refuge through this thick black rain,
Is it enough to cry these tears of truth
And sheer human completion
When I love you?
Down I fall through the numb valley
Of a home where we lay.
Before I ask for a meaning of this life’s delay
I must stop this bleeding of my mind!

My life misunderstood
This mellifluous that has stood
Will be my only oasis when you stand
Your ground and say you don’t love me anymore.
Is it enough to sacrifice?
When all I get is more of this pain.
Is it enough to be me?
Is it enough…

Sunday Picnic (Tanka)

A sunday morning's bliss
Brings us to a fine picnic,
Scrumptious food you make
Every taste as fine as you,
Beneath the sun we must kiss.

Merry Christmas (Haiku)

A merry christmas
To you and your family - -
I will pray for you.

Walking The Dead

When I’m alone with mystery
I choose not this misery,
Death took them away so swiftly
They come to me, I kiss them softly
Without a chance to say goodbye
They all vanished like dye.

A swim in a lake of forsaken souls
Chills my heart’s core,
In its blood I sink
Thinking of the things
That are not meant to be.

Whispers in the winter night
Reveal the death of the lantern’s light,
They are here seeking for their plight,
Through this tough fight
I must climb this dyke of scarred sight
And guide them where pain is tamed.

Dunes of Fear

My bare bleeding feet
Bare scars of our sore farewell's treat,
My crimson infects smudge earth…
They are my broken foot prints
Follow them and embrace
My oblivious sprint.

These tears tear me
Taste their saltiness
And fill me with your sulk.
Your eyes as white as milk
Smirk with lust for blood.

I can't do it alone,
I‘ll surely drown in the fear
That lives in me,
Help me swim through this lake
Of forsaken souls.
I look above and paint
The sky with weakness.

My grief reigns over me
The feel of ice enthralls my torn heart,
A touch on numbness slays my mortal essence,
O’ come sway my aching ghoul.
This fear feasts upon my clout
A crease of terror divides mind
I’m afraid, not of death but leaving
This heaven I created…

The Truth

It is not what you think it is
It is that which you speak
And all that they seek,
A hiss with a kiss
Is all that the truth has.
Toady flowers will die with his loss
Is this the truth?

It is the reason for your being here,
It is a slalom road to home,
Someday I’ll come
And take us away from this lame
Consign of oblivion.
Every word,
Every step,
Every breathe
You take are all in
The name of the truth.
Empathy thumps with a passion
But we choose not to see it.
In the quest of seeking truth
You lose me and I lose you.
We all are too close for
Time to separate us.

It is there for us to hold
It is that which the blind can see,
It is beneath every sorrowful face
It is in the terror of mankind
The reason for any war
Are the woes that man
Can live without…
These sins are the inner reflections
Of the demons in everyone.
I ask for the truth
And again you’ll tell me
What you want to hear.

Broken Emotions

These cracks on my skin are the sores
Of your broken kisses,
My numb emotions are the scars you left
Behind,

I walk following the blood trail of my mind,
My crimson tainted thoughts speak the pain
I now call home,

Look into my eyes?
Do you see what I’ve become?
I look in the mirror and hate what I’ve
Turned into.

Cry for me so that I quench
My thirst with your pure tears,
Let the rain come and wash away my pain,
Embrace this lachrymal to heal me again,
Without you this isn’t who I want to be.
