             Yes.
Loneliness is a temporary thing.

Comes and goes with bad dreams
Of people I used to know.

I don't think someone else
Can fulfil me
Or bring me peace.

It would just be nice
If another ******
Would take the time
To tell me about their day.
Life on lie, I couldn't even die.
Is she yours… or mine?
I do… do I comply?
Should I just die?

Why would you fight, when you're not mine?
Did I do right?
Do I get a chance to prove I’m right?

I didn’t commit the sins
It was indeed him.

The smile that lies on something that is a lie,
The evil in his eyes that made me cry.
Like “a fly on the wall,” it can also suggest someone who silently watches without being noticed, maybe even spying or creeping Poetic Note:
This poem captures the pain of betrayal and the storm of inner questions that follow. Through powerful contrasts—truth vs. lies, guilt vs. innocence, love vs. abandonment—it gives voice to a wounded heart seeking justice and clarity. The repetition of questions and the sharp final image of “evil in his eyes” leaves a lasting echo of sorrow, strength, and suppressed truth.

unnamed
your smile brings me joy
your dimples are to die for
your lips kissable.

Time after time we meet
In the same spot, in the same way
The wooden door
Beaten down
Rebuilt
Fresh coat of paint
Rusted doorknobs and squeaky hinges
Claw marks trying to escape
Holes trying to break in
Mended and repaired
We pretend it’s the same
Forever closed and always reopened
Resuscitation and revival
Reliable and reminded
That we will always meet
here
I'd like to be another sheep
in the herd
but without a shepherd
free but not alone

So facelss
that nobody recalls me

If I am hungry
take your feet away
so that I can graze

If I am thirsty,
open a narrow route
to a small cold river

If there is a danger,
call the cops

if there is opression
file a complaint

If I get sick,
heal me


But,
don't tell me your names,
just let youreselves be
in my mind
as another faceless
in the herd

Ponder this…
We were never born of sin.

We were born in God’s image.

And God is not broken.
He is perfect.

He is love.

He is good.

He is whole.
So we were born whole.
Sin is real…
But it is not our origin.

It is not our identity.

It’s a distortion, a distraction—
A veil over the truth.
And the truth is…
You were never broken.

You were always loved.
You are still whole.
Remember who you are.

Remember that inner voice calling you back.

Heal this generation.

Rewire our children to know:
 We are not born of sin.

We are born of wholeness.
And if we remember…
Our children’s children can know generational peace.
Then : I have my writings and I have you
Now : I have my writings but not you.
The only thing permanent is my writings.
Things have gone so far.
People who laugh their hearts out are permitted to stalk by. They give us the longest energy bar. Their eyes give the sparkle which everyone need in their life each and every moment. No matter how bad their character reveals,their smile is good enough to make someone reassuring that their life is also too good to feel happy with whatever they had up to. They make us feel that we are worth too.

All that is, is
This as-is;
Metaphor.
Or-
Awoke, and
wondered about
smoking,
did.
then, Hopped on a flight
to make money-
also true.
Over a while,
pondered emptiness
on a mountaintop-
SNOWCLAD COLD VISION PEAK-
discovered truth, was
true.
Then, dropped a cup of milk,
the honey missed more than dairy;
Oh-
oh oh oh
oh.
None not even one not even this
this - is true.
is not true.
this is a dream.
& as in a dream
Stuff(!) keeps on
Happening.
This is my homage to the poem "Lotus Sutra" by Dale Pendell in his book "Living with Barbarians"; i expound thru my own system how i experience the Buddhist book, or Sutra - Lankavatara, wherein The Buddha goes to Sri Lanka to expound on the wheel of the Dharma there to Ravana & yakshas and asuras.
