I can't almost believe it happened β but thank you all who have supported me on this journey.
Here's to more conversations that matter, more stories that heal, and more connections that remind us we're not alone in this journey.
With gratitude,

It is interesting how different short poems, when stitched together, become joined by an invisible thread of interconnectedness. This reflects the times we're living through - as poets we often seek refuge to escape the harsh realities as our ability to see things becomes both our gift and burden.
Behold the
sultry syllables sway
harmony of falling stars
peace, love, humanity
one hazy shade, below all.

Shells shattering walls
greed gutting homes,
faces ousting hope
lurk beneath debris
of a decimated girlsβ school,
lifeβs instruction manual
borrowing survival
off wartime playbook.
#vss365
Espy the #harmony of falling starsβ
vignette of sultry syllables
sway,
fate bleeding into
hazy shade of love.
Thick smoke, birthing
a poisonous acid rain,
fear of night
lingers;
pent-up grit and surrender
whisper their
umber dawn.

Crystalline verses
pen the
magic of life,
defined melancholy
yields #bountiful harvest
of solace.
From cosmic highways
your light may wane
yet love cascades,
and covenant whispersβ
βThe stars are lovely,
and so are you.β
#Bountiful & wise
This bubbling chaos in me inside
I tell myself daily
A little bit of paradise
Living in my mind rent free
Donβt tell me itβs a lie, give it up
I wonβt I canβt itβs the maketh of me
Unique eccentric whatever
It gives me wings like Redbull canβt

Spotlight is turned on
Revealing what was hiddenβ

Cosmic dreary - my falling stars
lofty rawness of ripe words
linger on the edge,
loud outcry of placid lake.
Drowning lights - I muster broken
light mends, because
you were wine,
and I was watered downβ
#vss365
Night speaketh rainbow dreams
stars tottered,
because
you were wine,
and I was watered downβ
Proximity burn of cold moon
and cataract craters
beauty numbed
is serenity gifted.

Life's splendor meets past's shadow
halfway at an inflection pointβ
survival instincts galore,
I groan. Believe I might fuck around
and forgive myselfβ but
ancestral trauma
is my site fidelity,
and my hastened rush for freedom
is just a cry for help.

Can I paint colours onto your sky, without you asking me why?
Deep within that sunless cave, the world was only half sketched. A murky green light shone from the rocks casting ominous shadows, and the persistent drip-drip was like an ancient water clock. The #cataracts of time slowing, as history played out on this penumbral stage.

Hello #vss365 -ers! I will be your host from March 1 through March 15. Prompts will be posted at 3:30 am, GMT. I look forward to seeing what you have!
Thank you to @DanielleSteJust for the wonderful words ending February!
Now why would I be obsessed with you? Weβre better than that clichΓ©. Iβll just swish your name in my mouth, slather it on my lips, slowβburn red, take it for a stroll through the park, letting it flutter over my shoulder with the bees and hummingbirds. Then Iβll tuck it into bed beside me, spoon it shamelessly, whispering βgoodnightβ at 2:35a.m. when my mind has bargained a thimble of sleep.

In his #quest to find answers about the fate of Delphi, Dylan stormed through Fleet Headquarters and didnβt give a damn whether he was supposed to be there or not.
Someone had to know how The Enemy got through the lines and, if they didnβt, theyβd better damned well find out, and soon.
