"....have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Over the edge...




Is it not
What we desire most
Makes us..?
Is it not
What we want most
 Breaks us..?

Lost key....




Rummaging my attic
I found a lost key
That had just lain there static
Through all the years I was born to see

It looked ancient
And yet in the light shone
A brooding darkness that was patient
Through every tragedy it had borne

In pursuit of....



To know you can
Even before you began
To set sail o’er there
Without a doubt you did dare

Sitting in the harsh summer’s sun
All this would have been fun
If a smooth path you had chosen
Before the past within you had frozen

Death of a heartbeat


T’was mid summer’s noon
I lay thoughtless
Mind wandering into the depths
Of an empty lagoon
There I lay thinking
How deep have I sank?
Why does it hurt so deep even now?
Tears tear you to pieces somehow 
Or is this the price of being so frank?
