Sonnet

Always in All Ways
Always sounds grand in the moment An expression of hope To conquer every unknown valley and slope Little do we know that always means in all ways

Awaken my soul I hear your call But I understand nothing Detached from The Otherworld A forgotten past Disconnected

Youth, I curse thee!
Youth, I curse thee! You have fooled the brightest, Tricked ones with the conscience, With coaxing schemes that dazzle, bold and sly;

In The Hall Of Light
Introduction Just a few lines to tell me how good I am, because I have been forgotten This is a simple sonnet The music is "The Haughs O' Cromdale" because it is almost a homonym for The Lights Of Cragdale.

Feeling no self worth A shadow of myself What have I become A beacon of pain A stained canvas for your projections A dark reflection

Floating in a sea of disbelief Itching for relief Stripped of every belief I once held dear Bereaved of my self Shucking the sleeve of my former reality

Why My Quiet Matters
I didn’t learn silence in the soft way. It wasn’t handed to me like a folded blanket or a warm cup of tea. My quiet was shaped in the echo after doors slammed, in the spaces where people spoke over me, in the long pauses where I waited for someone to see I was hurting. For years, my quiet felt like a bruise I couldn’t point to. It wasn’t peaceful. It wasn’t chosen. It was just where I went when the world didn’t leave room for me.

Ode to the Mango
It hangs upon the emerald bough, A captured sunset, even now. A teardrop shape of gold and red, A king of fruits, it must be said.
