A Love That Knows No Death

Els

1 min read

Sitting at the edge of the universe

Humming a sacred tune

Waiting to bring forth a heroic verse

For the time would be here soon.


A soul stretching out in every direction

Gathers its light from above

A mirror image of god source perfection

Truest form of unconditional love.


Emblazoned with courage and grace

A mother reaches out through time

Searching for a soul to embrace

Finding each other for a...

Morale Booster

Her eyes scanned the large door in front of her waiting for the games to begin. A hand reached into her pocket as she wrapped her fingers around the edges of a small piece of paper. Her gaze drifted down as she pulled the photo out of her pocket.


A smile crossed her lips as she looked down at the photo of her child. The 4 year old was waving at the camera, a big smile on his face as he slid down...

Sweet Deprived

Edgar dragged my reluctant self into the bakery that morning. I knew I should have stayed outside and given him the coins to make a purchase but he convinced me with a wink and a firm hand tugging on my waistcoat. A mother can only make so many excuses for her child.

Now Is My Time

Visions of ecstasy

Spinning in my mind.

Over the rainbow

To an even brighter star.


Beyond the ordinary

Eyes open to the flame.

It’s here that lies my destiny

A freshly cut new name


Where my souls finds it’s body

We are ready for the climb

I’ve read the signs before me

And it says “now is my t...

Quiet Symphony

Els

1 min read

Lungs void of breath

Veins filled with tears

Heart in my hands

I’ve lost you I fear.


Never morning or night

No sun

No moon

No stars.


No guide to the end

Just a flicker

Then a scar.


Reaching for the empty stage

I bow my head

And I take the tread


Of a life here alone

Or so it may be

Until I bear witness

To my heart’s quiet symphony....

Dreaming Of You

Els

1 min read

Alice stormed into her room. Face red and wet from the bike ride home. Slamming the door behind her she dropped her bag onto the floor with a thud. There was silence for a moment before she walked furiously towards her nightstand. She opened the drawer and shuffled through her belongings until she found the cassette tape.


‘Dreaming of you’ was written in blue ink now smudged from her wet hands. ...
