<p>somewhere<br />
a longing<br />
deep inside<br />
is identified<br />
and my search<br />
goes on<br />
a desire<br />
yes<br />
somehow fulfilled<br />
and the sparkling path<br />
that I walk on<br />
often without knowing<br />
and fading into the sun<br />
is always there<br />
Quiet Brilliance<br />
yes<br />
Quiet Brilliance</p>
<p><strong>© 2011</strong></p>
<p>Dedicated to the comfort and peace of those suffering in Japan from the earthquake and tsunami.<strong><br />

<p>My mind is charred<br />
Marshmallow in flame<br />
Black it melts<br />
Never the same</p>
<p>Once was white pure<br />
Fluffy and soft<br />
Embers of thoughts<br />
Now linger aloft</p>
<p>Plenty of fuel<br />
So much it won&#8217;t end<br />
These thoughts, yes they burn<br />
Scorch sizzle and singe</p>
<p>No chocolate to chase<br />
No sticky or gooey<br />
But crunchy black burnt<br />
Flaky not chewy</p>
<p>Stuck on a hanger<br />
To hang and to hang<br />
Poked through the middle<br />
Emotional pangs</p>
<p>Sitting on end<br />
Releasing with smoke<br />
Suffocates my sanity<br />
Smothers and chokes</p>
<p>The fire it smolders<br />
No, it will not die<br />
And my mind the marshmallow<br />
Continues to fry</p>
