  • Sync and Zing

  • A Year Journey

    In January, we repair and reset,you made that declaration—it’s you and me, we are a duet. In February, I never count the value of Valentine’s Day,but a present arrived out of nowhere, drifting my way;I wondered quietly—why, and who could… Continue reading

  • Out of the Frame

    They gather close, adjusting clothes,fixing hair where soft light glows,faces checked, no shadows bend,each pose perfected to the end. Tap,click,flash! A photo sealed,laughter echoes, smiles revealed,they crowd around that silver gleam,a photo born, a frozen dream. But tell me, did… Continue reading

  • A Time to Tear Down

    We keep the memories,though the seasons change,though people move onand colors shift.The air has dancedwith cloud and raina dozen times in painted hues. I came to tell you:I haven’t yet leftthe place I said I would.Still, I knowsomething must change.… Continue reading

  • A Cruise and A Smoke

    Cheers, hellos, and heartfelt hugs,welcome aboard with bags and mugs.We set to sail through rain’s encore,a toast to life beneath the pour. Unpack the needs, ignite your drive,in seconds, rhythm comes alive.With taps and slides, with waves and sways,the beat… Continue reading

  • Ascension of the Flames- Canto 11

    The Phoenix Bids Goodbye The phoenix has welcomed the man of diamonds;His weaknesses, overlooked through grace—His ugliness, covered with praise, face to face.Yet came the time his darkness grew,A storm long hidden, now breaking through. It grew like giant rainstorm… Continue reading

  • True love is not born of deceit.

    “Love rejoices in the truth…” 1 Corinthians 13:6 True love is not born of deceit. When something that looks like a good setup is actually built on deception, it is not coming from true intentions. It ends up being just… Continue reading

  • Yet believe

    Debilitated and disabled, yet others have believed,for what can change everything, not sight nor touch received. Did not have enough time to know everything, yet believe;mocked and discouraged in everything, yet believe. Giving up everything, yet believe;lost what’s everything, yet… Continue reading
