in the wake of a shimmer
where a marigold sky weakened
behind the horizon's embrace.
Then a pouring of twilight blue
assumed her nocturnal commitment.
An imponderable beauty decended from above.
He swayed through spheres
that imploded every challenge assembled.
He patiently immunized my lonely soul.
He sang me a melody of succumbing
to the oddities of love: implausible to my ears,
I knew the words.
He bordered near the sight of insanity,
and asked if I could take his hand and join him there;
somewhere, in infinity's cradle,
to the paradise of our choice,
where we could vaunt this miracle
to journal, and enlighten those
who seek nothing but the semblance
of this adventure.
With convictions trickling, like the raindrops
that began to fall, we stood seductively drawn
to the chemistry of nature's whim.

She courses through the canyons of my desire
A raging twisting torrent of temptation
Aching to leap the chiseled banks of propriety
Filling the chasm of sanity with the vastness of her beauty.
She wanders through my everyday
Pausing occasionally to gaze wide-eyed at the world
A wisp of hair falling upon her brow
Enchanting me with her electricity
And I dream
She strides upon the sands of the shore
Each grain touched by the grace of her gait.
As the sea beckons with its ceaseless cry,
Wavelets kissing her toes
A smile forms upon her countenance
As the realization of her femininity emerges.
For she is a woman
A little girl, a daughter child of light
A woman
Blessing the world around her with her beauty
As she defines love.
She knows not as yet the power she wields
Yet she is all powerful
In her every aspect.
She wanders through my thoughts and dreams
And I am humbled by her elegance
My words lose all meaning in her presence
As she epitomizes my heaven
And circumscribes my paradise.
She realizes not her beauty
Nor her effect
As she thunders through the ravaged ravines of my heart.
Worshipped, she should be
For she is deserving of all that life offers
Yet she asks for nothing
She is a woman loved
A woman honored
She defines the goddess
And the goddess is she.
And I dream.
Her reflection colors my being,
Her sweet, sweet song echoes through the canyons of my existence,
As her hair bounces joyously with her laughter
She personifies the perfection of a woman
Existing on the plane of love
She tenderly surveys her surroundings with devotion
Lightheartedly tossing her head
With that carefree smile that only she possesses
She possesses me.
And I dream
That I will dwell
In the canyon of the Goddess.

How can I find a way
To show my love for you?
Words could never reach that far
Nor depth of care convey.
What then? A look? A touch?
A tender kiss? Can this reveal it all?
Only as a single flake
Reflects a Winter's fall.
My life is all I have
To touch this love that's grown.
Draw this blade across my veins
Release this life I've known.
My dying breath I offer you
For one last loving kiss.
In all I do, or think, or feel
I honour you, Princess

Seasonal lover that comes in every summer
Walks the streets with untraceable steps
She dazzles every eye like a beam of light
Portraying the reflection of angels with sight
Captivating is it, to see her shining teeth
That illuminates the minds of all wandering feet
Her voice transforms negative thoughts to positive actions
And elucidates the quintessence of hidden solitude
Once in a while she comes with flowers and roses
With fragrance and lasting smell for all to sniff
With irrefutable prints she walks into every heart
To sweep and vacuum all the filth inside
Once in a blue moon she besieges the streets
Manifesting a stream of perfect serenity
The stillness commemorating the liberty she brings
Reveals the tenderness inherent in her infinite smile
When she leaves there's concomitant discontentment
Of having to live alone till the next season
Conspicuious is it to live in this painful suspense
Till the summer is ushered in, when she'll be back
5
Our minds swirl
becoming one
with the wind
fluently speaking
the silent language
favored by lovers
where neither question
nor answer exists
...or matters
where undying love
dances radiantly
in shared gazes
where we softly touch
one another with
mirrored moonbeams
6
This face that's on the outside
is just the face you see
The real me on the inside
is the one that's really me
This face that's on the outside
looks happy as can be
But the me that's on the inside
is crying silently
This face that's on the outside
doesn't give a clue
Of the love that's on the inside
longing so for you
But this face that's on the outside
is the only one to be..
Until the day you love me
then the real me you will see
To show my love for you?
Words could never reach that far
Nor depth of care convey.
What then? A look? A touch?
A tender kiss? Can this reveal it all?

Release this life I've known.

Walking slowly amidst the falling Autumn leaves,
I think of you in that strange land- so dry,
So stark and full of sand.
Softly I kiss the wind and send it your way
Hoping that the breeze will caress you lightly
And you will feel the presence of my love by the kiss in the wind.
Yes, you will feel my love by my kiss in the wind

"It is essential to get drunk all the time.
That's all: there is no other problem.
If you do not want to feel the appalling weight of time
which breaks your shoulders and bends you to the gound, get drunk,
and get drunk again....."
Do not get drunk. Only get drunk if it is on the taste of love,
and get drunk on love if you know for sure it is love and not lust.
If it is love, you will never be sad around that person,
the very thought of that person will put a smile on your face
and a extra perk in each step you take.
You will look forward to each day you will spend with that person,
to each sunrise and sunset that comes with that day.
You will notice the beauty in the small things in life,
and be forever grateful for the things you take for granted.
If you feel these things, my love, only then may you get drunk
on the taste of love.
And now to you i say this: Put down the book of hate and sadness
that you hold in your hand at this moment,
never to look at it again while the one you love is in your life.
Talk to that person about how you feel about them,
family, your future, and everything else that matters to you.
Love the person as much as possible and be the person you were
before the book of hate and sadness.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm the one you're thinking of. Sometimes I
wonder if I'm the one you will always love. I treat you the best
way I can, I'm trying to protect myself too. I don't want to wind up
hurt like so many times before. I gave my heart to you, now all
I ask is for you to love me like I love you. I know that you can't
give a promise of no pain, no tears, no feelings hurt. Just trust
in me like I do in you, and you will see all the love I have for you.
I am reaching out for your heart, in return I'll give you mine,
but is your heart free to give? You say that you love me, but love
can mean so many things. Can I cry on your shoulder when in pain?
Can I turn to you for shelter in the rain? Love is all about putting
someone else first, could you tell me what your love is worth?
Is it worth more that all the gold in the world? The clouds in
the sky? The sun up above? The moon and all the stars at night?
Is it worth all that money can buy, and then some? It is to me...
There are some that do not approve of the love we share, but to me
my love,I do not care. You are my moon and stars at night. You are
my everything. I love you and I'm going to treat you right.
10
Lights flickering in distant skies...
I think of you; my body cries.
My heart is whole; my wishes few.
Life would be nothing
without you.
A gentle breeze upon the wind,
your gentle touch upon my skin...
I carry it with me wherever I go
through warm, summer rains
and early Autumns snow.
This love surrounds me
like the warmth of the sun.
11
When I heard her,
it sounded like the
choir of angels in heaven
were proclaiming her being.
When I saw her,
I couldn't picture
anything else, but
endless and pure love.
When I smelled her,
a gentle breeze
with the scents of roses and lilacs
encompassed the area.
When I touched her,
the smoothness of her
skin released all the emotions
that were within her & me.
When I tasted her lips,
it was like food from God
and experiencing passion.
It was desirable.
But these are only lost senses of her.

From the day we were born to the present,
We should find more ways to love our parents,
days come by fast from dawn to the moon's crescent,
we never know when disaster will come like strong currents,
Problems will come to us all,
Strong and humble,
our parents will be there to help, in order for us not to fall,
they give us directions that help us not to crumble,
Grunting words that they fear,
the values they taught us we should always keep in mind,
They say things that go in one ear and out the other ear,
listen carefully and don't leave them behind,
Our Love for them should be ineffable,
for our parents give us affection which is so incredible!
13
I looked,
Thought I saw,
What did I see?
I still do not know.
I caught a glimpse,
Something hopeful and bright,
Leaving the mind to ponder
What great things may come.
Take a leap
If you dare,
Throw your heart out
And lift it with prayer,
You think it's floating,
You believe it to be grand,
You feel like
The world is in your hand.
One day you pause,
Begin to look around,
Question what you thought,
Soon begin to wonder,
Was it ever what I pondered?
One day it comes,
Hits you, leaves you breathless,
Pounding on your chest,
Leaving not an ounce inside,
Not enough to shed a tear.
What you once saw,
What you believed to be true,
What you thought possible,
Everything that could have been,
Is not what is,
Is not what was,
May it ever be?
Perhaps, but only time will tell.
14
Through time and space, the heart drifts to its resting place,
Only to soar to heights, that the mind cannot imagine.
Where logic and reason give chase,
And many people are lost in a chasm.
Rare is the love where two hearts are entwined,
As not to rush ahead so the other is not left behind.
To feel the effects of love as to taste an intoxicating wine,
To bare ones soul, heart, and mind.
Who can add beauty to a lovely flower?
Only a fool tries
Each petal and blossom has drawn me closer this hour,
You are the fragrance that fills my senses
and beauty that has captured my heart and eyes.
15
Love is on my mind
Love,
That would be you.
Mystical enchanted thoughts permeate my soul
Kinda like a dream that consumes,
wants to become.
Victory is only a step away
if I can believe
and trust it to be true.
Growth is what I seek
Nirvana,
The highest level,
attainment,
mutual connection of souls.
Flights of fancy take hold
and whisk me to far away reaches
Soaring amongst the clouds,
I look and you are with me.
We should find more ways to love our parents,
