and quietly draws loneliness.
Neither day nor night,
five o’clock drifts between.
Returning, leaving, hesitating—
unnamed feelings search for a place to rest.

Days asking for no stimulation.
Yawns and sighs gone.
Only distorted time flowing—
walking through nothingness.

drawn into the enchanting aroma.
Bitterness dances on my tongue,
and memories of what passed
come to mind.
If only I had stayed this way,
sipping my coffee,
dreamlike thoughts linger—
bitter-sweet.

Defeated in love,
betrayed,
she untangles the knots that bind her.
Around and around,
in awkward turns,
yet the dancer spins alone—
striking a pose,
carrying her quiet pride.

Why did she choose that color?
No one knows.
She wears it not to be seen,
nor to be desired,
but as if obeying a quiet voice within.
The red explains nothing.

The leaf carried by the river
The cloud that is are not the sky
The moon behind the finger
A wordless koan.
A mantra (of sorts)
But enough
For the moment
To get me by.

I turn my back,
holding back both tears and anger.
Whether this is the right way
no one can say…
yes, because it is unfair.

breathes quietly,
gazing down on the raging waves,
as if mocking its own small role.
It hangs in the corner of the sky,
fragile, almost fading—
yet one day, it will shine large and full.

A dark, lyrical noir about grief, predators, and the stories we tell to survive.
A weary investigator.
A haunted vampire.
A city that keeps applauding the wrong monsters.
Some crimes never stay buried.
Some ghosts want justice.

feeling the door against our backs.
We know what lies beyond it,
even without being told—
yet we still want to be sure.
On the other side
there must be something
that refuses words.
And so we remain here,
clinging to something unreal,
like a fading vision.
