  • Somewhere in time.

    Somewhere in time. The paradox of living, we get what we deserve. Once, the prettiest lady I have ever known, waited for a wayward man. I remember the fragrance of her skin, the tenderness of her hands. I sang love words to her for many days. “We love, we die. we dance, we shall cry.… Read more

    Everything had it’s time… 1- We have become silhouettes in a locked room. Just two ghosts roaming and breathing alone. Once house, filled with love.

  • Ancient floors.

    Ancient floors. In the mirrors of time.Old windows may never be closed. Surging memories and regret leave us wishing we were kinder and better.The broken roads leave me spiraling in the memories of kind and beautiful faces. Faces who words are tattoos on my mind and heart.Easy to languish in stagnant thoughts when peace is… Read more
