Uncertain times
As we face today (2020).
————————————-xxx—————————————
Tragedy strikes in the land of the terrified
Someone knocked, in a weather too fair
Unknown guest, a resident, soul stood petrified
The walls have seen two souls and an heir
Furious, walking around a house rarely visited before
And days go by, stranded in rooms, impossible is the porch
Thoughts gather in time, maybe out of season
This time, unresolved pasts linger with conditioned reasons
Breaths feel like sardonic whispers in the halted air
Deaths are rising with panic infused boredom within confined layers
Idealistic thoughts can only so much help you foresee
Cloud'd, unc'rtain thoughts questioneth me, to be or not to be
————————————-xxx—————————————
Forget/Forgive
Do you raise your questions?
--------------------------------------------------xxx----------------------------------------------------------
Are you a part of the vast reality
A place you need with open eyes and dignity
Let yourself chase a place of wisdom and freedom
That new place, a dry one, with only coyotes singing in the land
Let me take you there and feel the losses of mankind myths and the gods
Just forget sorrow you feel and be lost while you feel free in hand
Chase a new myth, one that takes you away, makes you a different soul, while you forget the forgiveness of the lords

Perceptions
How can you see her/him differently? I mean your life…just because it gets cunning
————————————————————————————xxx————————————————————————-
How do I look at you another way
I wish there existed another way
I’m far beyond to miss your mystic ways
Clinging onto not looking away
To see hope, life and happiness’ array
Perceive a way to see you, causes dismay
The clock taught me a way, one way
Let’s try to see it anew, in your name
In circumstances
Feels heavy while you promise fame
In challenges
A perception changed, in a while
If not, you make death smile
Maybe we’re not going to take it anymore
We’re going to make it through this all
For here goes another of your wishes
Here goes another need for life and it’s twitches

Coffee in a Whiskey Glass
How one waits for their romance to return, eagerly, sadly, sleeplessly. Their insecurities and thoughts in this patriarchal society.
-------------------------------------------------------xxx---------------------------------------------------------
As I sit here with coffee in a whiskey glass
Hoping for the time spent apart to roll and pass
Hoping for my wait, the walk through a forest with smoking grass
Patriarchy, the man, running wild, for a prey, not in the distant mile
Seek for a you, a version of you, maybe you
Their drools swamp the ground as I wait and search, yet not found
This day you told me, you’d return
Now it feels like a maybe, with that sun turn
I sit awake at night, waiting for you to knock on the door
I could find an island in your arms, poetry in your eyes and I sit here in pain hoping not for a lullaby
It’s hard to numb the weight of my eyes, same feeling when I’m mesmerised
Race to the door, please, as fast, as I sit here sipping my coffee in a whiskey glass
