I'm a spiritually attuned empath and metamorphic healer, deeply committed to guiding others toward higher awareness and personal transformation. Passionate about poetry, I try to infuse my work with vivid imagery, drawing inspiration from historical narratives and my spiritual journey. With a keen interest in metaphysics, tarot, and ancient wisdom, I like to encourages introspection and personal evolution, challenging societal norms and helping others awaken to their true purpose. My writing and spiritual practices reflect a profound respect for interconnectedness and universal harmony, as I walk my unique path of light and understanding.

The Unexpected Third Wheel

There once was a woman I knew,
I was much older than her by a few.
She would flirt all the time,
Joking she will be mine,
Passed me her number, said "you know what to do".


 I grinned as I looked in her eyes,
Your offer caught me by surprise....

The Epic of Man - Part 1: The Rise of Civilization

"The Epic of Man," a tale untold,
Of hearts aflame and spirits bold.
From dust to stars, from stone to flame,
The threads of time weave Man's great name.

I have walked the breadth of centuries unseen,
A shadow cast where life has been

The Epic of Man - Part 2: The Age of Wonders

With ashes cooled, the shadows thinned,
A whisper rose upon from the wind.
Through darkness deep, a flame began,
To call upon The Epic of Man.

A new era gave birth to wonderous works
Where art and science shed their dirks.
Canvas and...

The Epic of Man - Part 3: The Struggle for Freedom

In lands where empires drew their line,
The Slavic heart refused to bind.
Through whispered oaths and shadowed hand,
They sought to free their native land.

On Sarajevo’s streets that day,
A bullet carved the war’s pathway.
A single spark,...

The Epic of Man - Part 4: From Ashes to Hope

From ashes born, the world arose,
But fragile bonds could not impose.
The lessons taught by war’s cruel hand,
Were quickly lost upon the land.

Through cries for peace and voices loud,
New hopes were sown among the crowd.
Yet greed and fear...

The interplay of light and darkness mirrors the creative process how inspiration often emerges from contrasting thoughts, emotions, or experiences. The "memory of light" appears to symbolize fleeting moments of inspiration, while the "touch of pure darkness" represents the struggle or introspection that fuels deeper creativity.

Brings me back to my childhood and simpler times where all we had to worry about was a secure rung I the ladder or the sturdy floor boards. Let's not forget how mom would yell or names for suppa

I can relate to this. It captures a deeply resonant and complicated relationship dynamic. The rawness and honesty reveals a tug-of-war between love and pain, vulnerability and self-protection. It’s as if love and hurt are locked in an endless dance, where moments of closeness and understanding slip into cycles of unintentional cruelty. It’s beautiful yet bittersweet, capturing the complexities of a love that’s both magnetic and potentially destructive.

I thought I was fully prepared for what I was about to encounter, especially after reading one of your other poems. Alas I was greatly mistaken! I stood ready to dive into another whimsical piece BUT..... I could not make it past the first stanza with a gut-wrenching laugh. THANK YOU I much enjoyed and need this. Which breed did you finally settle on?

Grounded expectations is all we can hope for. Even with some of my works, often I will ask myself, why? We can only hope that one particular pieces resonates with someone. Bite your tongue on the 4th stanza cause we can agree to disagree.
