A place to show my work
What is tranquility?
I don’t know.
Whenever I think I’ve found it,
It vanishes right away.
I chase it through the silence,
In whispers of the night,
Yet every time I grasp a piece,
It slips beyond my sight.
A fleeting breath, a soft embrace,
A moment spent in dreams,
Though silent echoes linger still,
It fades like morning beams.
Sunrise paints the sky,
Golden hues ignite the day,
A promise of light.

A hunger has begun, deep and strong,
To chase the dreams where I belong.
Huge things to be had, far and wide,
Even if I must journey alone, with pride.
“If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman.” —Margaret Thatcher
In a crowd, I feel like I’m small,
Wishing quietly not to stand tall.
With a gulp and a sigh,
I just want to hide,
As my heart beats, it echoes the call.

Burn, baby, burn
For all the wrong things you have done,
Ashes drift where shadows turn,
In the fire, the past is spun.
Let the flames ignite the night,
From the embers, strength will rise,
In each end, there lies new light,
In the ashes, hope complies.
