To love or not to love
To never love is to never lose
But to love is to gain the most
To never love is to never lose
But to love is to gain the most
The Monster is massive
with fangs and with claws
all lacquered and sharpened
sticking out from its jaws
The Monster is ghoulish
with deep, sunken eyes
it speaks whispers of wicked
No one needs to hear your jokes,
Your remarks or your sneers,
No one needs to be pushed under
By the sea that you've filled
With the laughs that you've drawn
From ignorant thoughts,
Is this my sonnet?
My voice, free to thrive
Sea fish within dive
Reach in, draw the net.
There you are, at last…
Tell me what you have seen…
Tell me everything…
Drip oozed from the bass.
I stare at my ceiling,
Blank, white, boring.
The rain is pouring,
Loud, hard, sad.
The paint is peeling,
Cracks upon cracks,
The rain is still pouring,
Fun in the sun
Leaves hanging from stems in shades of green
Orange petals dangling from a nest of seeds
Water, sometimes in the form of ice
Music is so ancient.
It's so odd to think that
The sweet lilting of the flute,
Played through my speakers, read from a CD-
Could be so close to the sound of reed pipes!-
Played by children dancing in the forest.
never tempt fate,
when you’re climbing a steep mountain, alone,
the sky is still an aura of black and blue swirls
with dots of stars twinkling in the dead of night,
Never Tempt Fate
She would say
It is almost always better
To stay in your lane
When you walk on earth’s tightrope
Fate will always be willing
Never tempt fate.
Don’t talk about your wins
For you will lose.
Don’t dive deep into riches
Or they will vanish.
Fate will strike down
I like the way she shines
Beaming through the darkness
A spark of hope
Blazing through
the never ending darkness
of night
She gives me hope for the world
As if saying
"It's okay,
never tempt fate,
it'll get you nowhere.
i've spent hours,
trying to get rid of my destiny.
i'm tired of pretending
that it's not right there,
