A Frosty Winter

Coza

1 min read

A chill settles in the northern rivers,

A ripple of frost tints the grass,

And the feathers of the cozy creatures,

Ruffle to warm them fast.

Their chattering and honks don’t ever cease,

But grow into consensus of unrest,

When it comes time for the beady eyed geese,

To choose to leave their nest.

Soaring across the weightless skies,

A snowflake fluttering in the wind,

Geese dance and sing like fl...

I Am Mournfully Damned

It’s impossibly ugly this sweater,

But I wear it each week,

No matter the weather.

I once wore the beauty of clothes,

That suit me so fine,

Pretty as a rose.

But those who I trusted grew close,

The light in the dark,

The ones I loved most.

And they tore down all who was me,

I was left to hurt,

Ash and debris.

Thus the sweater hides myself,

Protecting my heart,

Everything I felt.

So I’ll push ...

Another November’s Day

Coza

It’s the middle of November and I’m trudging through three feet of snow because, much to my dismay, bodies don’t just bury themselves. I can feel the cold air prick at the skin on my face, and the tips of my fingers are growing numb against the slicing cold of the metal spade. Scoop after scoop, the endless pile of icy dirt piles up besides the body bags. I’ve been digging for what feels like hour...

My Darkest Days

When I died, my shadow decided it would take over.

It knew that for the survival of the body, we needed someone stronger than me. Someone more connected to the darkness. Someone who would do what it took to survive.

And when my shadow delivered upon its promise to finally save the body from the hell it was in, we knew it was safer if the darkness continued to protect us. We would never go back...

The Lyrics of History

Coza

Weaving between the layers of mortality,

Like a painting griping hold of its muse

And the muse his painter,

The threads of time wrap my silhouette.

I swim through oceans of significant occurrences

And remember on a boat on a lake

Sat the beautiful Angel of Music,

And her songs’ eternal glory.

As her words dance in my brain,

Like Anna’s Dying Swan soothing my soul

Reminding me of the fragility...

A Girl and A Box

Coza

1 min read

A whistle of the wind hums it’s mournful tune. The leaves on the trees are gifted their melancholy dance. And a girl stands, phone in hand, in a red box like a trapped mouse.

The girl has a sad look to her. It is not the drooping corners of her mouth. Nor the reddened cheeks and nose like a baby in the snow. But the eyes that show a battle where defeat and loss follow after each other.

As the ni...

A Loosing Battle

Fear,

Sounding alarm,

Headlights and deer,

Suffocating, I can’t calm.

I feel myself falling,

In a panic I am consumed,

And heard by anyone I am calling

Due to the prospect of a gashing wound.

But heard I am not for an overwhelming void,

Silencing my anxiety toward the impending loss of my love,

Yet whilst drowning I must stand strong, before hope is destroyed,

As though the weight builds, I know...

A Secret Existence

There is something peaceful about being nameless, faceless, unknown. Something calming; something beautiful.

In a coat of protective bark, sturdy and safe, I sing my song through my rustling leaves. I feel connected to those around me, similar yet unique as our roots hug each other, guiding each other to the heavenly taste of water amongst the warmth and comfort of the bedded soil beneath us.

A chilling freeze danced with the blackness in the air. The sound of a haunting siren sung from an ambulance passing by. The chatter of the bustling streets faded into an eery silence.

Ellis could feel his breath stop short.

“If you are here, show yourself.” Ellis’ voice shook as his eyes darted around, warily seeking for a movement amongst the darkness.

A creaking groan sounded but it didn’t ...

That Lasting Pain of Love

Coza

It was her. Standing under the dim light of the street lamp, it was her. It was my Kat. The thick fog clouded my vision, making it difficult to see, but I would have recognised her figure from miles away. And it froze me in my spot.

My breath caught in my throat, bringing along with it this insufferable sense of choking, and my heart felt as if it might pound out of my chest. I hadn’t noticed str...
