"Naivety" By Elexer Lyra
Naivety
By Elexer Lyra
How do you sit on your
window sill
and not see the hell
beyond your door?
Eyes gaze at
beauty
while mistaking
high-pitched wails
as music.

"Welcoming Autumn" By Elexer Lyra
Welcoming Autumn
By Elexer Lyra
Fox of mellow nature
meet the windy
autumn of your ancestors.
The once young leaves
now fall
as you will once
your time comes.
Embrace the quite
letting go of
worries
made by the
soundproofing
which has fallen
and is now underfoot.

"Mother Luna" By Elexer Lyra
Mother Luna
By Elexer Lyra
Mother Luna,
love and light,
create the sky
I see tonight.
Guide me through
my painful nights,
in hope that I will
be alright
in the end.
You are my forever
friend
of reflecting day.
Glistening the sorrows
and mind trips away,
you listen
to the inner creases
of my mind.
Reminding me how
you are a kind
pool of whispers,
telling me now
that I am beautiful,
no matter what
the thoughts
say.

"Listen to the Ocean" By Elexer Lyra
Listen to the Ocean
By Elexer Lyra
Coastal waters
of understanding
wash over me
in a blanket
of gratitude
and warmth.
As your lips move
and mine
stay silent.
Your words are threads
of fishing line
tying my mouth
shut.

"Mazes of Success" by Elexer Lyra
Mazes of Success
By Elexer Lyra
Turning paths of
metropolis
circles in meditative
mazes of thought.
Motivational posters
for the finish line
with no hint of it's
location.
Found only by those
who kneel,
dig with bare hands,
forget the maze,
and find the tunnels
lined with gold.

"Unspoken"by Elexer Lyra
Unspoken
by Elexer Lyra
Twisting thoughts
on parchment paper
wings,
flutter through the
hearts
of overactive souls.
Body full of
words unwritten,
run from heart
to head,
pulsing to be
spoken.

"Friends of Luna" By Elexer Lyra
Friends of Luna
By Elexer Lyra
Luna illuminates our care
as you hold my hand
and I pet your hair.
Light of nightly troubles
helps wash them away.
You are my friend.
You are my Luna.
You are my light.
