    The Seasons of My Mood

    Regardless of summer joyousness, I will sense the overcast of wintry darkness.   Sometimes I will feel happiness, yet there is that which lingers smotheringly.   Always at the brim of my eyes is a teary shower   which glazes over my eyes and thunderous shouts...

    • I’ve never thought of it as like seasons before, but now that I have it is a strangely accurate description, especially when it feels more unpredictable. Maybe I should invest in an emotional tornado shelter.

      • A shelter from emotional tornadoes would be medication coupled with therapy… take it from me! lol

    • Powerfully penned, Daniel. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

    A Mother’s Hug Goodnight

    Frigid, calm front hides in northern winds, the vast sky of my bedroom dims. Stream in winter Iced over, mother’s embrace letting go at bedtime.   Still raining, sky’s dark pillow, eyelids become anchors, smothering.   The cold front blanketing these damp lids, peacefully covers the coming storm.

    Memory

    Blood drips slow from the ceilingOh it tastes like rustHead's poundingSirens screamingMy mind’s combustCops poundingThe door’s caving in“Where were you” they shout“where’ve you been”I’m blankI’m hollowThe reel won’t playNo pastNo shadowJust a foggy grayIron tastes like memoryBitter and coldQuestions...

    • This has a surreal aspect to it. The iron tasting like memory is brilliant. Mind sees blood

    • Brilliantly penned, Drieks. Into the book it belongs! Phenomenal lyrics my friend especially that chorus, love the drive of the musical arrangement, the beat is almost trance like. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

    • Thank you Damian! 🙏🏻

    • This is awesome! I’m sorry I’m late to this post!!
      Just wow!!

    • I can’t thank you enough for your beautiful words. I am pretty bad at accepting compliments so bare with me.
      Also, english is not my native language so if I say something that doesn’t make much sense, I apologize!

      But thank you for saying all this to me. Truly.
      And no, I do not realize I help people through my words but it is really nice to think I can/do.

      ❤️
