Blue mind
***
When the moon is out there,
I’m there,
Walking the moon up there,
Where
I see the earth down there,
I don’t want to return
Back there,
It's too much for me
To bare,
Seeing thriving meadows
Nowhere.

This poem is coming from my novel ‘A Letter To Heaven’, chapter 9.
I read this poem on Rhubarb Poetry evening at Triangle Pub in Shipley Bradford on 28/02/24, England
There is emptiness
In this shell
I confess,
No light or breath,
Here is only a mess,
Just moans hollow
And painful cries
Me tend to follow
In this place
Which disasters face.

I live a life
I don’t want to see,
This is an illusion,
A plain mirage,
I cut my cords
Running short,
My life is worth nothing,
Made of black ashes,
Vaping clouds,
Fading sounds.

I reached November
In the middle of summer,
My leaves faded
In yellow and brown,
Late autumn storms
Came early
Stripping off me
Naked,
My bare body
Freezes in ice-cold rain,
My heart still blossoms
But December comes
It doesn’t knock
On my door
It freezes my heart
Suddenly and goes.

This cell-phone,
My dear,
Is nothing more than,
Just a jewel plain
To show off myself
In public,
I appear.

All I have
Are poems sorrow,
My home -
Grey tarmac road,
Covered by endless
Universe in blue.
I don’t know,
When,
I’ll find my way,
Home.

This poem was quoted at The Triangle bar/Shipley/Bradford at 'Rhubarb' poetry evening (29/11/23)
His mouth
Was full
Of white fishbones,
Sharp and rough,
When he spoke out,
They spiked my heart.
It healed
Leaving timeless marks
In itself.

This poem is coming from my novel ‘A Letter To Heaven’, chapter 12.
There is nothing I see
Then shadows of ghosts
In a contaminated sea
With rotten posts.
The sun leaks blood
Early winter evenings
Raising dark mood
And poisoned feelings.
Black ink has stained
Velvet of white
Putting the end
On joyful life.

This poem comes from my book ‘A Letter to Heaven. Chapter 14.
You are pill universal
In the glass of silver,
There is no reversal
When you pain enter.
You do me a favour
Setting me free forever.
You have no flavour
Requesting for no water.

This poem was quoted at Josefs K café/Bradford at Beehive poetry evening on 23/11/23
My heart needs
Just simply love,
Without it
It feels imprisoned
In a burning iron cage,
Left for the sun
To eat it out.

This poem was quoted at Josefs K café/Bradford at Beehive poetry evening on 23/11/23
They rode my heart
To the end.
And damped me
In a trench,
Leaving me
For somebody
To love me
The way
I am now.

This poem was quoted at Josefs K café/Bradford at Beehive poetry evening on 23/11/23
My breath
Is so expensive
I can afford it
Barely.
It’s easier
To give up,
Nevertheless,
I crawl
On my bleeding knees,
Once more feel it.

Tree branches
Grow into me,
Forming me
The way
I don’t want
To be.

This is a poem from my novel ‘A Letter To Heaven’, Chapter 18.
We don’t want to lose
That we used to belong,
But everything goes loose
And we cannot go along.
Nothing can be kept
When comes that day,
Everything is swept
And in peace, we lay.
We are free and pure
To get up and fly away
There is no better cure
When we reach that day.

I was afraid
What will happen
Before my heart started to knock in my chest.
I’m worried about
Where my road will take me
When my body will lay in peace.
