a drop of dew
a whiff
of roast

the king in his lair

the games shadows play

Nostalgia has a new end

about a coffee, a stole and the glasses that went for a walk

coffee series!

windows to our lost soul?

she waited for him to come as he had promised. Listen to these empty chairs. they tell the story of her betrayal

a dull world
a dry day
a falling tree
in my way
i sit and think
i get lost
in the magic of ink

the fuzzy logic of lights
the hazy dawn of memory

my daddy strongest
my daddy dearest.

i enjoy the comfort of his shoulder.

where the streets, once had names.
and now they are written in fonts that don't make sense.

When she returns it, you know you survived it easy. She could break your heart with her smile. You know you came of easy.

The wag of a tail, the grin of a dog and you lose your heart.
The whimper of want, the whine of loneliness and you want to be hugged.
The innocent peep for he doesn't know what goes on around him.
& You want to set him free.

the bags seem lighter after the day is over....or would it be just me???

i looked out of the window and found a world incomplete.....i'd rather live in my cave....atleast i can sigh aloud
