Burnt to Ashes: A Love Left Behind
When the fire of love fades, only the silence of loneliness remains.
I am burnt to ashes in the fire of love,
The one I once held dear is now far above.
My happiness has drifted to an unknown shore,
To a place where I can find it no more.
My joy has taken flight, soaring so high,
Vanishing forever into the deep blue sky.

The Story of My Resilience: A Light in the Dark
I kept my word, and I stayed true, But the one I waited for—was never you. I wrote the story of turning my life around, In every struggle, a new strength I found. I lit a lamp in the deepest of night, Yet, you remained hidden, far from my sight. I waited for you, through the silence and pain, But you chose to vanish, like mist in the rain.

Veil of Subconscious Awakening
Images slide behind my eyelids like film cadres, bursting with meanings. In one moment, I’m speeding down the highway, making the speedometer swing wildly like a frantic pendulum. The next moment, I’m plunging from a falling plane, slowly crashing earthward. At home, I meet black cat’s green, googly eyes staring at me from the cavernous hollowness of the kitchen. When I turn for a moment, it disappears, and all I can see is a pair of blue suede shoes set up against the wall. I pick them up and put them on. When I glimpse at them again, they’ve become black as night, making me blink and flinch.
