Poem #1

Shattered Skies

In the corridors of the mind, a tempest brews, A storm of thoughts, a battle of hues. Shattered skies within, a canvas unseen, A kaleidoscope of feelings, vast and keen.

The echoes of silence, a deafening roar, Whispers of shadows, haunting evermore. Beneath the surface, a labyrinth untold, A journey through darkness, a tale to unfold.

Yet in the heart’s chamber, a flicker remains, A resilient ember that refuses the chains. Mental landscapes shifting, a fragile dance, A chance for healing, a second chance.

Reach out, oh soul, embrace the light, A beacon of hope in the endless night. For in the symphony of struggles and strife, Resides the melody, the song of life.

Poem #2

Hollow Halls

Bewildered mind, like knots of twine,

His mind adrift, a hollow shrine.

Nothing to guide, no path to tread,

A weary soul in halls long dead.

Tears welling, unseen, unheard,

Unspoken words, a heavy load.

Though smiles may paint a cheerful guise,

The emptiness within his eyes.
