I read this and wondered:

[size=18pt]■[Couplet 3 - Maître Gim's]

Je ne suis jamais parti

_{I never left}

Je n’ai jamais changé

_{I never changed}

Si ce n’est ma voix et ma taille

_{Except for my voice and my height}

Oh Maman

_{Oh Mom}
C’est moi

_{It’s me}
Je veux que tu valides ma fiancée

_{I want that you validate my fiancée}

Réconforte-moi comme quand je tombe

_{Comfort me like when I used to fall}

Maman où t’es passée, oh

_{Mom, where are you, oh}
Regarde-moi

_{Look at me}

[size=18pt]Keep smiling
Even if it hurts....
Even behind the sun
...there might be showers...
...
Laughter through tears
Stand through fears
...
No matter how you feel

Keep trying
Keep smiling
.
_{Be lit inside}...
.
Till you smile for REAL!

firestar: [size=17pt]. . .Belted a melody
Right to depths of your soul
Tunes fluted so true
A kaledioscope of sorts
Your inner self
You. . .

----

Pieces composed by others
As if of one mind
You could care less of language
Your discernment alerts your heart
To sing along [/size]

I wont pretend I understood the others but this piece quite interesting. For me I agree even more that your heart is your discernment, one and the same. The theme of unison and communion is conveyed very audibly but still without intrusive force therefore it provides enough shade for readers to see what they chose to within it. It is a very nice piece and I just adore the diction. Two thumbs upe

My taste buds,
A renewed rebirth of a second after thought
Licking tentatively these delicious lines
I dare to let my mind drift,
And drown in the mush of words
The maze of minds,
Which belted a melody right to the depths of my soul
And woke my sleeping thirst

The Gothic themes running through your work are reminiscent of Evanescence and Lacuna Coil.

[b][size=18pt]Dedicated to HotNaijaBabe

All by myself
with crossed limbs
And bowed head...

A mediatative pose
Considering waves
Of unease

_{Quiet please....}

_{...the tears flow along the map of my face...
soaking through and through...
I'll never let another human see me this way:
in shattered china...
...no... I'll cry me a torrent...
...and weep my triumph...
......I'll be alright....
I sobbed in my disquiet
I'll be just fine...}

[s]You'll never see that metamorphis of a grub...[/s]
...only the butterfly...

...
The river dried
The crag glints
No more moisture
Not even dew...

Just...

... a face of flint.

Who comforted me in my disquiet?
Who gathered me in?
Who tucked me safely....
...Under the wings?
...
.
,,
Who softened my heart?
Who gave me rest?

Who said "Walk ahead child, for I'm with you...?

Only I could you lasting peace..."

A boneless relief
...as my last sighs of grief
I un-burdened it all
and embraced Him.

Peace,,,,,,,,

Two paths
Take one
....
.....
The one less travelled and narrow
Cramped are its ways
Weather all storms
Pass the fire test
Let the scummy dross pour
From every pore

Be refined
Seek peace
Be the best after the worst
Continue working it through
...and you'll
Be at rest... cool

firestar: Whole souled
Whole hearted

All might
All strength
shod with feet
that ne'er departed

Composed missiles
In the heat of adversity
The large shield of faith
Dissolving animosity

Should a sneak fly by
Around the loins
girds Truth:
It endures
It overwhelms
... the spy
whose name...
... is The Lie

Faculties of reason
Is fortified and antibodied
Against Mind-hackers
of all times and seasons

[size=19pt]Maxima...
Faithful.
Maxim...
True.
Maxi...
Able.

Her senses...
Acute.
Her Abilities.
Prime.
Her Loyalty...
Steadfast.
Her Humour...
Sublime.

As I lay
...in death-like state.
As I lay unaware...
My prayers are met
and paid through her gait...
As She patrols...
Around parameters
In her lingua:
Everywhere.

I reappear by His grace
As night flees from day
To offer thanks
and grateful psalms
Preparing without delay

At my voice
Pointed ears perk
And shuffling is heard within
Whines and playful nips
Canine breath and gasping yips

One of many a grain of sand to rejoice.

Gather them aplenty
Let haunts turn over
With eerie songs
That those who discern
...may bridge or chorus along

Beautiful as it is deep
Harmonize its pieces
Then...
To the Sky...
Unburden your load
To the High heavens
and let it fly.

Gather grains of joy
Gather them aplenty.
Maxi mum benefit.
In times of unease.
Let it not be scanty.
Let it breathe.
