卵石的个性

他总是那么沉默
如河底的卵石
秋天的浮叶
静静地飘过
惊讶他的洁白
季节的洗涤
翻滚着涟漪的心
他却无声无影地
栖息在大地的平静

Roses And A Bee

The roses are fragrant clouds
resting upon my keen attention
the bee flutters
drowning in nectar
losing its mind

Such frantic love
moves me to regret
Overwhelming beauty
deserves deep dives
liberating from
any hope of tomorrow
or freedom of life

Co-existence

The pain of breaking in new shoes
before they fit like gloves

The exhilarating new love we feel
Make love till it hurts

Rain and blue sky
both beautiful

Pain and pleasure
blurry is the line

Between Them

He still sends her presents
helps her to pay bills
cares about her from a distance

She keeps those gifts
pays her bills with his money
thinks about him sometimes

Giving is a blessing
Receiving validates his existence

A Man

A tree trunk full of texture

return after a long day
your voice is hoarse
your stubble gives
sandpaper kisses
your coarse fingertips
run along my back
electricity
coursing through my body
this is home
you built with strong hands
and masculine quality

River

Living Poetry prompt – River

I wanted to be a lake
But you made me a river
Passion gushed from my sanctuary
Earnestly flowed toward you

You were an island
But I wanted you to be a raft
I was so far gone with my mind
incapable of being tied down

My tears broke the flood gate
Forever gone with the stream

See And Seeing Not

She doesn’t want to be seen
covering herself
with piercings
and dark eyeliner

He sees her quiet wit
That’s how
a blind man
falls in love

Stop Revive Survive

No doesn’t always mean
I Don’t want to
It means
I can’t right now

Timing is everything
It’s ok to say no

The world shouldn’t
panalise you
just because
you put yourself first
instead of being the giver
keeps on giving
without reservation

It’s ok to say no
Self preservation gives space
to restore, rejuvenate
and be a more cheerful giver

Love one another
Self love comes first
for the benefit of
loving others

Queen of The Night

The overwhelming sillage
is a reminder
of your presence
like the queen of the night
in the garden
keep blooming
in my dreams

I bury my nose
in the musky pillow
the base note
of your perfume
Memory is such a
torturous ghost

I can’t wait for
the light to wilt
all these illusions
into scentless buds

Before Sunrise

Long Reef lookout, Sydney, Australia


I watch these two
before Sunrise

Knowing my father
values my son’s company
more than the glorious sun
He is an old man
seen many sunrises

My son
for the first time
experiences the magnificence
of a new day
with his favourite person

I love watching sunrise
But my eyes
cannot move pass
the love between them
They are worth
missing the sunrise for
