surreal poetry

Whispers of the Meadow
In the meadow, where the whispers play, Nature's symphony on a summer's day. A gentle breeze rustles through the grass, Whispering secrets as it softly passes.

5 Muses
This is a collage (because all poems are pictures) made up of 5 pieces: 2 odes, 2 elegies, and a haiku. I consider all works here to be strongly related and it is definitely impossible to understand each one individually without the whole picture: they tell a story.

The Price of Sacrifice
The journey to self is long. The price you pay to obtain greatness is to give in to the process. Lose yourself, give up the faith, break down your walls, in order to emerge beyond your grace. Find new strength with the knowledge anew, come up for air so you can remember the core of you. For when it’s done you won’t believe, the person that’s you, isn’t the one that everybody use to see.

Brighter Days
Simple little talks in the sun. A warm breeze on a summer's day. There's laughter in the air. Listen to the birds sing. Enjoy every song.

Fear
A fear of the dark. A fear of the night. A fear of the shadows that lurk down inside. This sinking gut feeling and the terror inside of you.

In The Air
There's something in the air. Something strange is afoot. Are there patterns that I'm not seeing? Are there signs that I've missed?
