My dear love,
Devil in the mind,
Brings evil in the mind,
Because the devil in the mind,
...
My dear, it takes a time,
To become water of the ice,
As setting sun takes a time to rise again.
...
The past was past,
But the present is mine,
What our dream is star like shine,
The curse was called,
...
My dear, you are crystal clear,
Your mind is crystal clear,
And your soul is also clear.
...
When I entered in your minds eyes,
I forgot all my painful worries,
And I remember nothing dear,
And my memories are wiped out,
...
Love is love and love is love,
Whoever in love,
Flies in the sky,
Like that of Eagal,
...
(The speaker stands alone at dusk. A half-packed suitcase lies at his feet. Papers—plans, letters, dreams—are scattered around. He speaks to the silent sky.)
So this was the plan.
This—neatly measured, carefully folded future.
I charted it like a map,
...
Remember the day when we met,
In my beautiful chamber of gate,
There was peace and silence spread,
Door was shut and comfort zone had different thread,
...
I held your name beneath my quiet chest,
A flame that burned though no one saw it glow;
Each memory a guest that would not rest,
A river flowing where I cannot go.
...
Time leans its full weight on the patient mind,
Each second stretched, a thread about to break;
The future flickers, close yet undefined,
A door that trembles, slow to open, wake.
...
When nights grow long and faith begins to fray,
Despair sits close, a shadow without name;
Yet in that dark, a breath of fragile day
Stirs like an ember fed by quiet flame.
...
Grief learns to walk on tiptoe through the day,
Wearing a face the world will not mistrust;
Words ache within, yet choose the safer way—
To sink unheard into the heart's closed dust.
...
The mind builds rooms where echoes never sleep,
Each thought a footstep pacing back and forth;
Smiles guard the doors where private sorrows keep,
And silence learns the language of their worth.
...
The sun slips low, its gold already thin,
Like laughter worn by years it cannot stay;
Young hours glow, then quietly give in
To shadows learning how to lengthen day.
...
The sea waits wide beneath the patient moon,
Its breathing slow, a lesson carved in blue;
It learns the names of storms, yet answers soon
With calm that time alone has taught it true.
...
Spring wakes the heart with green, unguarded dreams,
A tender hope that trusts the world's embrace;
Summer burns bright with fierce and restless schemes,
Its golden hours too swift for us to trace.
...
The night loosens its grip on weary skies,
Stars fade like debts the darkness can't repay;
A timid glow along the horizon lies,
Learning the courage needed to be day.
...
The air stands hushed, as if it holds its breath,
No leaf dares speak upon the waiting tree;
The sky lies pale, rehearsing scenes of wrath,
Yet wears a calm that feels like mockery.
...
The dawn slips silver through the veil of night,
As if the sky forgets the dark it wore;
Old stars grow pale before the growing light,
And hours loosen what they held before.
...
Love as Meaning Itself
(Shakespearean Sonnet)
Not in the gold of kings, nor fleeting fame,
Nor triumphs writ upon the fleeting page,

Devil In The Mind
My dear love,
Devil in the mind,
Brings evil in the mind,
Because the devil in the mind,
Creates mistrust in the mind.
My dear love,
Never give birth to the devil in the mind;
And the evil in the mind,
Because, evil in the mind cuts the throats,
And devil in the mind destroys the world,
And devil in the mind destroys the happiness.
My dear love,
Ever long for happiness,
And ever long for peace,
Because, we are born of happiness,
Lived of happiness,
And, we would live for peace.
Because, my dear love,
Devil in the mind brings;
Evil in 823the mind.
