Now we speak words for the dead
That are filled with effusive praise
All the things we wish we had said

Poem: Elegy for Nameless
There she resides now
On distant misty shores
Where no mortal can tread
Oh passenger of Charon
I hope you looked back
As you crossed dark waters
To see those that loved you
Poem: Lament for Lost Love
In the still of the grave
Lies wilting in white
Rose petals of sadness
For my love who lives there
Wrapped in chiffon
The color of fresh snow
Like her body and just as cold
Poem: Ghazal Mask
The things we show in the masks we wear
The things we hide in the masks we wear
Tiny invisible killers fill the air
Leading to choices about the masks we wear
