Heartaches and Pancakes

Pancakes I like

Perfectly round and fluffy.

A batter of flour and eggs

Mixed with a pinch of love 

and all things sweet,

Can uplift a gloomy soul to

happy in minutes.

But heartaches I don't like

They're difficult to go through. 

Anxiety and a searing pain

That turns a happy soul to 

Melancholy in minutes.

So what if I had heartaches 

and pancakes together

Would it soothe the aching heart?

The sweetness to cut out

The burn left behind.

It may be a good combination

Atleast it rhymes well.

Its nothing like something

made with love and sugar

That cant heal a thing.

What am I?

Look closer

I may not be

What you seem to perceive.

I can be sweet but mean

As cold as in your dream.

I can be warm as the summer 

Or chilly like the winter wind.

I can be a hound lying

In the shadows

Waiting to pounce on your innocent soul.

Or maybe I am none of these

But just a figment of your imagination

That haunts you day and night

Never for once leaving your hazy sight.

The ocean calms my restless soul

I stand and gaze

As the sun goes down

To meet its beloved,

At the end of a tiring day.

Darkness presumed soon after

But the glow of the last yellow rays,

Talked of a promise

To meet another day.

I wonder what the tales are,

That the sun whispers to the water

As it nears the horizon

Longing for a kiss thats warm.

As I stand there

Fleeting through my endless thoughts

I realised I have touched shore

Because

"The ocean calms my restless soul".
