with no life vests in tow,
and have your eyes and ears closed
as you sink low, low, low

the first hit, the first shake,
felt more of a grand wake,
staring at a broken mirror
in its familiar body
made it more clearer

and the bright light was shown,
and it was not white nor gold,
it was reality,
soaked in bile and rust cloaked.

fiery trail in every caress
burned his mortal soul
and endures it nonetheless

A blanketed dimmed glare
An awakening gone too soon
to be graced upon its mortal stare
is to live and die within its tune

Plunges in its depth
in his darkness she confides
to hold was their waning breath
as sorrowful death guides

Time, held as victims
as soon as the horizon dims

two palms on my ears keeping the words away.

I'm on the brink of something treacherous.
I'm on the shore and closer in the deep seabed
and I don't know where to place myself.
Should I keep afloat or let myself sink deeper?

I welcome you to the deepest parts of my heart and mind where I post a little bit of everything including but not limited to poetries, novellas and even songs I want you to listen to while you read my entries. I appreciate you for being here.


GUIDELINES:

- Every week I'll be posting three entries ranging from different types or forms of literature.

- Sometimes, I tend to get ahead of myself and already work on the entries I'm supposed to be working on the next week. Hence, if you see a post with a "TBP" on it, it means "to be posted" and it is an entry I'm currently working on and will be posted in the next week. It allows the readers of my padlet to anticipate my upcoming entries/works (atleast, I hope)

The cry of the wolves,
And the soft calling of rain above,
The incessant tap of footsteps

Laughter amid the brew filled stomach
The tick of the moth in the caged flame
The bosoms meeting through touch
The incessant rushing of blood in vein

The nightly dance of the trees
The shush and hum of a mother
And subsiding wails
The incessant puff of ragged breath

The creak of a tattered door
The rustling of bawl-stained sheets
Until no sound was heard
But the incessant weep of solitary

in it is a woman
flooded in her mind was words
and curious hues
that spills whenever it reaches its blues

The vial encircled on a tight grip hand
and once every few months,
the hand shook with the vial mimicking its motion
such is the woman inside

She shook, and shook, and shook
amidst the swaying of the flood,
of words and curious hues that sparkles as it touches light
making the woman a caged beauty
that the shaking of the hand find it its duty

As the shaking stops,
followed by a deep slumber
the woman within wakes up
an onslaught of flood, words and curious hues

She once again awaits
for the shaking she finds her firm fate

in a cluster of stars
where uncertainty lives inside me
in the darkness they leave me be

where no one has dared look
where I am often mistook
a murky void
oh, merely a blank book

As their shadow haunts another
Can take whomever in a prison of despair
May they be armored and all. 

As their laughter unclogs the dam
And spills at your feet 
Circles around your knees,
Caresses your bosom,
And crowns around your head.

was every other day
as it was day by day

And your hums
that may,
grace my ear, as it may

Until you lay,
knees and ground touch,
as they pray

Today,
different as the day
now your hum in my bosom
bears its weight

that touches the sky
as the ground kisses her feet

Unbound is she,

within filled streets

Wise is she,
that still carries faith
held by ambivalent need

Strong is she,
that drowns but never sink

hues in the sky of black
heard was a wail
heard was a laugh
heard was a boom 
hues in the sky of white
palms outstreched
palms clutched tight
heard was a boom
a speck of gold
a speck of red
a speck of light

smoke swirling 
in a once bright sight

of black and blue 
once picked apart 
harbours no bright hues

the twinkling of above
we were taught to reach
of the blazing red behoved
and the orb of white beam

but how must one attain
if the ground holds plea
meets the woe of rain
does one fly if must be?

to soar is to touch what ignites
do i die first to see the light?

"father, is there really a world beyond ours?"

"what makes you question it?" incredulous painted on the father's face.

"people make fun of what we know of a whole new world beyond belief" the daughter replies.

"it's in your head you see, everything you see is in your head. why not make it real? your imagination is powerful than all things on earth combined." father walks closer to point at his daughter's head. "in here, you can. you can dive unto the deepest oceans and crawl the highest mountains. why is there no world beyond ours if you believe it? if your mind can see it? just because something isn't there, doesn't mean it's not there. go dig deeper, search high and low and see the wonders of thinking ahead and braving the great unknown"

that's who I deem to be
not merely a half of a man
but seen only as me

a woman of sacrifice
a woman of life!
a woman not shackled 
by this futile strife

may I be who I am
regardless of who
may they look at me
not by surface—but seen through]]> 2023-03-04 06:52:12 UTC https://padlet.com/athzns/reveur/wish/2503322703 XVI. (A kindred spirit to all) athzns https://padlet.com/athzns/reveur/wish/2503325706 She who speaks with trees
and dances with the tides
Caressed by the spring
Flap of wings as her guide

In every fallen petal that once was
a blooming wonder—may it be so brief
She collects within each palm
its beauty beyond belief

This constant call of wander,
may it find no end!
For here is a home
and many to call a friend.

from the forbidden tree
To taste its tang
and saccharine weep

Of joyful weep,
crimson in each bud
and in once pale teeth
bitters of bile and blood

Come! the gust of wind
leaves, the ground calls
within each heavy drop,
gushes pain in each fall

Pearls of muddy red
arrives in line
beckoning thirst
toasts to woe and wine.

making it its canvas,
its once beating and blushing hue
now blackened, purplish and blue.

From the bare window
fumes as the gust of wind,
inhaled unnoticed,
akin to a stolen kiss.]]> 2023-10-24 05:35:09 UTC https://padlet.com/athzns/reveur/wish/2760422603
