Despair ... Feb 13, 2008

poised on crumbling ledge
pain embodied
at crossroads
yet too far out on the edge
stained, once healthy cheeks
now sunk sullen and bleak
futile search through swollen eyes
half blinded from tears cried
alone, afraid, anxious
disconsolate, despondent, desolate
forward or to retreat, reconsider
questions and more questions
precariously perched looking down
despair tips the scales
plunging silently
head first into oblivion
thud shatters
an otherwise noiseless end

Writing May 21, 2007

I sit at my desk
thinking
pondering
wondering
what makes us connect
letters into words
expressions and emotions
stringing sentences
creating images
and thus end up writing

An Ode To Online Mates May 21, 2007

tippity tap, tippity tap
fingers flying across keyboard
when I hit Send or Enter
my thoughts are splashed across to you
you in the next cubicle
you across the lands and seas
I am the future girl
GoogleTalk, YM, ICQ, MSN
surely you've met me sometime
if you have come say hi
share a smile a word a ear
.ani unplugged is what you get
this could the catalyst
the start of something
worth exploring

Fragile Silence May 19, 2007

Hush I behest you hush
Do not awaken the little ones
Hush I beg you hush
Do not encroach upon my solitude

Hush I plead please hush
So few are the moments to myself
Hush oh for peace sakes hush
I need to think

Without appreciating my need for this
You come and destroy that very fragility
I cling so selfishly unto like drowning man to straws
My silence broken by the voices calling out to me

Water May 17, 2007

Rhythmic gurgling
Gentle on my ears
I lay here next to you
Dreaming of the trails you weave
Where from do you spring forth
And does your journey begin or end
When river meets the ocean
I am lulled by your endless song
As my dreams of tomorrow
Get whisked away to unknown places
Shall I follow you or lay here still
I cannot yet conclude
Your song now has made heavy my eyes
I choose to dream
Accompanied by your ancient tunes
Chasing rainbows can wait for now
My soul is dancing and so I rest

You Are Welcomed Warmly

I see you've found yourself suddenly here amidst the poetic scribbles of my rambling mind often incoherent to the general you and only understood by myself.

If you find that my words have touched you, then indeed my journey of words has met its objective ... I wish to be able to let you the unknown reader experience my rollercoaster existence with the stringing of words.

It is my sincere hope that you will come many times again and leave your comments and feedback for I am only a writer here in the anonymity of the internet, harbouring a burning desire to someday hold my words bound within pages in the bookstores of the world ...

Perhaps dreams keeps us going - I intend to try perhaps to turn mine into some reality .. thank you for stopping by...
