My Puzzle



My puzzle isn't complete 
Without all the pieces
Perfect jigsaw 
Sliding into place 

Winds can't blow 
Without a driving force 
Knock me down
Only to raise me higher 

Laughter can't be heard
Without endearing presence 
Movie nights, catty fights 
Fetus hair, broken chair

Fun can't be had
Without us all together
Fruit platters, decadent cakes
Basking under suns rays

Tears can't fall
Without you there to wipe them
Hold me up 
Cast away the darkness

Weakness can't be felt
Together fighting battles
We're all for one,
One for all

Distance can't be felt
Chatter on into the dusk
Smiling cheeks
Roasting, salty, savage

Tradition can't uphold
Without a Chillie's night
To say goodbye 
To you I hold so dear

My puzzle isn't complete 
Without all the pieces
Perfect jigsaw 
Sliding into place

Were that I could drink From the well of Ilm that you exude, From your healing and love of a magnitude - To rival the fire of a burning star, To soothe the pain of a livid scar. For surely you are the missing link In a yearning hearts disquietude, A promise of guidance and fortitude. Were that I could sleep To dream of your beloved form, Witness your splendour...

Ablaze

Beat tides of indignation. Find s trength in absolution. Rise above the darkness. Ablaze, Claim the future.

Knowledge

Knowledge. This is a word that holds extortionate amounts of  weight. A word or better yet, an object that could bring down nations only to build them up again, stronger than ever before. But what does it mean? At it's heart - what is it really? In my opinion knowledge is subjective. It is influenced by age, nationality, experience, religion and science among many other factors. Not only that but its very fibres, what it really is at its core is only that which we believe it to be for we all hold knowledge (in whatever form that may be), but how we practice it, what we consider it to be differs. I, for instance, believe that knowledge is an all-encompassing light that guides us and leads on to wisdom. It is not merely the art of being book smart or knowing scientific facts, rather, a kaleidoscope of the skills we have learnt, the hardships we have gone through, the ability to inquire and seek the truth and, at its crux the understanding of the happenings around us and the ...
