Rehab of everyday

I hang my shoes
and sit down to play
You tell me now if I'm old
and if they'll let me get away?

My moments, my dreams
all insipid it seems,
I turn to run away from my being

To be pure like a smile
To be sure like a child
to run towards my very own sun
to stop trying and be someone

To hold and not pose
to sing not an old prose
to fly out beyond the sky
to sketch my own lullaby 

I hang out my soul,
to leave it to dry
while I enjoy the stroll

deep down into my being
to stop and ponder
the things I'm seeing
to shed a tear on that which hurts

to laugh and cheer my only life
to dance on the music that's
me and I...

 I left out a part of me tonight
to hang in silence before it sighs

I run along the longest demure
of wanting to live the life
while I'm still sure...


Tuesday, June 15


















Two weeks notice

A week its been to a new shore
I've left behind now
what I long claimed as
mine to procure, one
that is now mine to retain or abhor

Long it took to sever at last,
the extended stay in the premise
of an unstinting mind,
just not ready to bury the past behind

Just as fear was seeping in,
long did it rust away from my sight
a seething challenge to my might

I could but relish it now,
though it seems already
like a new task

The new voyage has stormy seas,
and the radar is sorting itself in line
to where my dreams
with my will shall align

Progression and motion,
and the entire commotion,
and all of it does sometime get limiting
to the core

Tossing and turning,
and twisting and swerving
inside I'm ambivalent to the core

Not sleeping or working,
a state of inertia,
but not one I've felt before

To the emotional mind,
to all the threads that logic
can't bind, I can't hide
that I'll miss dearly what I leave behind

So I take what I can
and move away before
I doubt my decision,

so long an exile
away from precision

My biggest test was greater than my ask
I longed within and I long without
But I cast myself away from doubts

What else remains for me to say...
What do I retain? What is my to remain?

I sail to another sea,
on another journey, to a new shore
Longing and lusting to be with myself
more than anyone, once more...

So I take few pictures, in silence,
and complete some remaining hymns,
I evade those who I know most
or the fear of change will do me in...

Goodbye, and may joy be with you all
this parting glass, let us not fill with tears
I owe it my heart to you...
I owe it from the start to you...
