with purpose
In chorus
In concert Continue reading Seek

Back

August 2, 2015August 7, 2015 Carrick Cross

I hear
sweet talk
on the sidewalk
as you pass my way

I wish I could stay
my day with you
But you never
look back
at me Continue reading Back

no laments
no latent strain

Siren

July 22, 2015July 22, 2015 Carrick Cross

Our island swing
waves sing
slow current
sunburnt
the siren sang
a mermaid’s call
in a trance
I began to fall
sinking fast
for you Continue reading Siren

Plum

June 29, 2015June 30, 2015 Carrick Cross

Waltzing through her garden
Arms around her shoulders
A kiss and then I told her
I can hardly hold my ardor
She’s the
peaches in my pie the
nectar in my flower the
apple of my eye the
berries in my cobbler the
buzz in my fly the Continue reading Plum

letters scrawl across

Number

At least she thinks so
With an alarming wry smile

Her number Continue reading Number

Onlyness

June 9, 2015 Carrick Cross

Onlyness when we’re apart
feels longer
Loneliness makes me weak
not stronger
Signs of stress contort
I’m a monster
Mind’s a mess head hurts
I’m conquered Continue reading Onlyness

Miss Adventure

May 28, 2015June 15, 2015 Carrick Cross

It’s not that I miss she is gone
It’s not that I miss who we were
It’s not that I miss the misadventure
when we once felt love’s stir
It’s that I
miss the mess
miss the blur
miss the test
I miss when Miss Adventure
stepped through the door Continue reading Miss Adventure

April 22, 2015 Carrick Cross

My world
flipped upside down
When you
turned me inside out
Your lies
gave me the roundabout
Time flies
when you’re having doubts

Iron

A Kings

Life is a patchwork of moments — laughter, solitude, everyday joys, and quiet aches. Through scribbled stories, I explore travels both far and inward, from sunrise over unfamiliar streets to the comfort of home. This is life as I see it, captured in ink and memory. Stick around; let's wander together.

Through Moments in Life

All I can hope is that you can understand what I’m trying to say, in the way that I’m trying to say it. But in the end, we all look in different directions, with different perspectives and opinions, and yet, in the end… we feel the same. And this is just a small sum of pieces and circumstances of a life that could be, let’s say, anybody.
