Treasure
What is it that you keep,
Hidden within your heart?
Do you speak your secrets with the masses?
Or do you fear it may come apart?
Is it madness that you cherish,
The gifts that you've created?
Or is it wisdom that prevents you,
From bringing yourself to share it?
It may not shine, it may not glimmer
It isn't gold, nor diamonds that glitter.
Is it real enough to be held with your hands?
Or is it a dream, from one of your plans?
Would you save it if it meant losing yourself?
Not knowing how it'd spiral, and how far you'd delve?
You have peaked my curiosity, so tell me so,
What is it , that you treasure the most?

Light
Reveal to me, that which seeks to hide
Under the guise of any other
Hidden in plain sight
The night obstructs my vision
What is stood before me, I know not
But all shall be clear on your arrival
Your stride so sharp, ever so piercing
Unhindered by the masses,
You cast a shadow upon.
Seen from the edges of the world
Your gaze demands an answer
For a reply, never shall it arrive
Through the void between entities
You pass without a sound
Relieving all beings from the shade
Your absence once created
Must you depart so soon?
I bid you farewell, until my eyes open again.

The Virtuoso
Step closer, my anticipation spikes
This moment so familiar
Excites me still
Beauty shall unravel
And it shall fade the same
In a crescendo of hot metal and flame
This scent so amicable, I crave for more
But diluting this emotion would feel so impure
Don a mask I shall
To show my true face
For it isn't a given
But a creation of my own
Beauty I shall seek
In the darkest of depths
For pure thoughts are rarely so bright
An abhorrent mind
For a distasteful soul
A truly fitting pair
The curtains unfold
I will put on a show
As the call for beauty explodes

Winter
Till the prime of noon, I lay in bed
In hopes of winter, I lay in wait
The cold harsh winds bother me not
For a dark high fire is what I've got.
I see all the faces of the sun but one
For a star even brighter passes by
Although it lasts for a time too short
The beauty of the sight I can't deny
I pull the strings for a glimpse at the moon,
The shine pierces through my heart.
But the excitement is often followed by rain
And I can't help but feel torn apart.
Every summer, I chase the storm.
A chance to feel the cold breeze
Reminds me of the time, I felt so warm
Even the coldest of hearts wouldn't freeze.

Smile
Look in the glass and admire yourself
Look at your vision shine
Bask in the glow of your golden face
Smile because you know you're mine
Walk out the door, breathe in the air
Let the breeze bustle through
Remember our walk where we divulged in talks
Smile because you know I love you
Sit in a café, order a latte
Make it sugary sweet
Smack your lips but forget the bitterness
Smile because one day we'll meet
Put on a dress, a colour you like
Change up the sense of your style
I'll embrace you with praise, to see that happy face
For what complements your dress is your smile

Strange brew
Visions vanish and darkness turns to light
As I inhale a familiar scent
Reminiscent of countless nights, in this morning
When I was sore but hellbent
I follow the fumes from a furnace a far
With the richness of dark it burns
Bringing wonder and amusement to the beholder's eye
By this anticipated yet common sight
A vessel is put down, a ceramic marvel
Fill it with sugary delight
Drawn from the furnace, is a dark essence
The essence that reinvigorates life
Craft a concoction with a precise consistency
Infused is the mixture with bittersweet memories
Tweak the masterpiece and draw upon with your lips
Every morning feels bearable with fresh coffee to sip

Basic
Tell me,
How far have you delved into your own mind?
Do you ever question yourself?
Do you ever wonder if you're wrong?
The depth of your mind is shallow at best
You lack the answers to raise questions
And the ability to deny your emotions
Tell me,
How is it that you know everything?
Are none of your facts fiction?
And the knowledge you've gained not a given?
What you know is a mere figment of reality
What you state is what you've devised
What you preach is what has been preached to you
Tell me,
Do you ever think unlike you?
Do you ever lace up shoes that don't belong to you?
Or do you feel your thoughts to be the truth?
You put on a mask made up of glass
Your feet are too big and your compassion too weak
You lie to yourself not knowing its a lie
Tell me,
Why do you feel you have depth?
Is it that your ego is too big?
Or is it because you're pride is too thick?
You swim at the top, unable to make the dive
Too full of yourself to ever sink
Too fixated on yourself to ever blink
You're as basic as one can be

Who is she? Who are you?
She is bold, she is strong
She is cold, she is young
She is..shut the fuck up
She is none of those
Yet she claims she is
Her boldness is an idea
Her strength is a dream
Her youth is a spur
Her cold heart is simply anger
She isn't unique
She feels what we feel
She speaks freely
But you speak to yourself
She is in pain
But so are you
She is in love
And there is love for you
She is going out
But you're staying in
She says she drinks
To numb the pain
But you're numb to the core
In the coldest of rain
Is she all what she says she is?
Who is the she she talks about?
She is timid and scared
In mediocrity does she despair
But not you,
Mediocrity is too mediocre
Normality is too bland
Silence is too loud
And the average is too common
You're an outlier
An uncommon sight
You're the rainbow in this monochrome life
You're the screamer in the quiet night
You are truly an outrageous gem
Your shine is dark and you glow in the light
You truly are an uncommon sight

The Proposal
Willingly I chose you regardless your looks.
Intense were those moments left my heart ashook.
Love me or hate me you'll always be special,
Like a poem from the heart, never superficial.
Yearning for your caress I lay awake at night
Over the moon I feel when I hear your voice
Unity of our minds beneath the wonderous starlight
Beyond the realms of men, you're in my mind
Elysium my dreams, when I grab you from behind
My love for you, sway it shall not
Interest in your words, fade it will not
Never to leave you broken and scared
Eternal my love for you, death may despair

On my mind
Step into my mind and amuse me
On this sunny afternoon
As I lay in the confinement of my screen.
Converse with words you've never spoken
In this path of time,
When I get cozy with my sentiments
Take me to a world of your creation
Where never is today
And the end of forever is tomorrow.
Catch me when I trip over and fall
Fall into your embrace
Embrace me with your voice
Lay rest to these anxious nights
They stain my mind
And abstain the joys that distance destroys.
Breathe the love that fuels my fire
Let the flames engulf me
As the figment of you surrounds me.
