Autumn

RalphLeave a comment

In a middle of deadly quiet and white winter,

Spring whispered its warmth into cinders,

Stoking an awakening into consciousness,

Smoking the flickers of lustful life into wilderness.

Then the summer came,

With a whirlwind of bombastic laughter, serene tear-shedding, and a shot gun picnics into greeneries,

Cinematic crimson feather clouds floating loftily above the guardless heads,

And a steaming magmatic energy exuded by every loving living beings under the sun,

Stepping into the Autumn,

Hardened skins wizened with crevices of scars, ones which have bled once.

Eyes softened with glows of exploding young stars,

Voice resounded from deep within from a well of soul that dug itself deeper inside.

Autumn, autumn is here.

A Thousand Mirrors

RalphLeave a comment

Stumbled upon a two mirrors,

and I found myself in between a thousand doors.

It took a thousand of years to go through the gates.

 

Stubbornly, I got out.

 

I asked for a rewards, but it was deadly quiet.

All I could do was to walk a little bit more.

Then I realized the doors were the prize.

 

I then hoped.

 

I hoped to see your smile and my smile to last just a bit longer.

White

I glanced at my hands,

Skin is thicker than I remember,

Bones hardened with blows I endured more than I can bear.

Bittersweet wrinkles are the ones that stare back at me now.

Crimson sun rising beyond dark blue sky reminds me again: it ain’t over yet.

Perhaps I’d need to tear off this white shirt

Run with bear feet a thousand mile

And shout with wills of the thousands that passed out behind me

I am here!

Sword

RalphLeave a comment

Stranger, hold on to that vine, you are

Stronger than you believe, a

Soldier of resilience and unquestionable triumphs.

Whirlwind spins around you faster and

World blinks and turns and

Whiplashes blindspots impassive and strong

Real man holds it in, they said.

Still, have you seen these tears?

Here, hold on to your dream, my dear.

Lava

RalphLeave a comment

Try hold on to this pure gold lava,

steaming with vigorous heat energy,

Like a baby dragon scrambling to get out of

A soft, sturdy rock shell.

Pain seems to be a constant reminder that

Life is limited and comfort is overrated.

Pain is the reason I focus and the ask for the reason why I sing and dream,

Dreaming of the freedom

Dung

RalphLeave a comment

Let me be a dung,

I will be the best dung in the world

I will bring forth bubbly flowers and waves of green leaves

Clear sky of breezy summer day light and a cool dusky evening.

Let me be a dung,

I may be soft and stink; but I will lift you up

I may be brittle, but I will be warm.

I may be crusty, but I will protect you from wild animals.

I will be the best dung in the world, for I love the world.

Justice

RalphLeave a comment

I am holding on,

Holding on because of the truth,

Truth that told me I will be justified

In a moment’s notice

I am holding on,

When everything’s spinning in a carousel

Unfamiliar wounds are building up,

I am smiling, for this, too, shall pass.

I am holding on,

No, I am changing my life, for nothing will come for a rescue or redemption

Hammering my way, building a house; a world of my consciousness.

I am holding on,

I am holding on to a hot leash of this world.

Eternity

Ralph1 Comment

For what it’s worth, here is my life.

I’ve seen the pair of your eyes,

Not letting my iris escape the eclipse of yours.

In your dark pupil, I’ve seen a quiet flame soar.

I am afraid. Afraid of what I believe as true

And a possibility that it may be different

from what the actual truth is.

But for what it’s worth, here is my life.

When our paths cross, I will be your faithful friend and your formidable foe.

When our paths depart, I will sing a voiceless song of your soul.

Because in your pupil, I’ve seen your flame grow.
