Unbalanced Scales
Your gaze lingers on the strengths I bring,A harvest you wish to claim,But turn a blind eye to the strings I cling,The give and take of love’s sweet game.You crave the sun my light bestows,Yet shun the moon that’s mine to keep,A lopsided path where one seed grows,Leaving the other fields to weep.True partnership’s a…

Where flames erase, leaving ash in their wake,Clearing by…

Scorched Earth
In shadowed eyes, a fire burned,Not warmth, but rage, a world unfurled.Her voice, once soft, now turned to steel,A symphony of pain, a story real.The world had wronged her, twisted her fate,A tapestry of lies, a bitter hate.No solace found, no justice won,Just endless darkness, where light had gone.So with a spark, a burning ember,She…
