Poetry

Star in the Night

M.A.D. Works


In the night, so far,
A flicker of hope, a guiding spark,
Wishes whispered, dreams take flight,
In the cosmos, a dance of light.
With every twinkle, stories unfold,
Secrets of the universe, silently told.
Infinite beauty, a timeless art,
You’re the wish that lives in my heart.

Poetry

Silence Echoes

M.A.D. Works

In valleys deep where silence reigns,
An echo bounces, a song that remains,
It speaks of stories, of laughter and pain,
A timeless refrain that will always sustain.

Poetry

Joy Chasing

M.A.D. Works

With laughter we run, hearts open wide,
Chasing the echoes of joy that abide.
Through fields of adventure, side by side,
In the thrill of the moment, there’s nowhere to hide.

Poetry

Sorrow of my Heart

M.A.D. Works

The sorrow of my heart
Because we have been apart
Has left me hollow inside
All I want to do is hide
To heal my broken heart.

Poetry

Liquid Romance

M.A.D. Works

There once was a rain that would dance,
In puddles it splashed with a chance.
It kissed all the ground,
In soft whirls it found,
Joy in the sky’s liquid romance.

Poetry

Burn, Baby, Burn

M.A.D. Works
burn

Burn, baby, burn
for all the wrongs you did,
Thinking I would never find out,
Shame on you,
your lies and tricks,
they cut so deep,
but I stand strong,
I’m taking back my peace.

The fire of truth,
it lights my way,
with every step,
I’ll find a new day.
No more shadows,
no more pain,
I’ll rise from the ashes,
like a bright flame.

So burn, baby, burn,
with the lessons learned,
I’ll carry on,
and my heart will return.
With hope in my soul,
and love all around,
I’ll build a new life,
on solid ground.
