Don't lose hope when you lose love

When love took birth in my heart for you

An invisible umbilical cord formed between your heart and mine

It served as a channel for my feelings to pass through

It somehow paved its way deep into your heart

That’s how I instinctively fed you when

You were hungry for love and affection

That’s what kept my emotions aligned with yours

You cried I cried, you smiled I smiled

That’s what made me feel I belong to you

You and me were one, you were the missing piece of my puzzle

That’s what kept me attached to you

You were my kite I was your string

Now the cord has been poisoned with doubts and deceit

Now only pain flows through and damages the hearts

The kite having been through a storm wants to break free from its string

The missing piece having changed shape is looking for a different puzzle

So I cut the cord.....I let go

That’s the only way to drain the poison

Let the kite fly free, find its own way out of the storm

Let the missing piece detach, find its perfect fit in another puzzle

While I patiently wait until a new cord grows towards another heart

Determined never to let it be poisoned,

I will keep it strong, I will make it last!

It's hard to let go

I wonder why I still get butterflies in my stomach when I see your picture or read your name,

I seem to have moved on but my wretched heart wants to replay that game,

I wonder why my scattered thoughts always gather to form memories of you,

I seem to have forgotten yet your face finds a place in my view,

I wonder why you still haunt my dreams when in reality you shun me so,

I seem to be drifting away from you, but then my heart begins to row,

I wonder why I still feel lonely even though I have company to keep,

I seem to have lost you but my faith wants to take a leap!

INFATUATION

I can get lost in your deep blues eyes,

Oh sing me just a dream,
A smile, when your lips do part,
Those pearly whites that gleam,

Far into the sunset twilight reveals,
Haunting whispers of you,
Branding me with your name,
My heart beating for two,

The wilderness of your face taunts,
Arresting my view,
Sinking into my soul,
Rushing blood to every sinew,

Crimson rising in my cheeks,
I silently retreat,
Tasting the death of desire,
Confounded with defeat!

SOMEONE

Someone kind, someone nice
Someone worthy, someone wise

Someone sweet and a little spice
Someone with more virtue and a little less vice

Someone that cares about everything I do
Someone that feels the same way about me too

Someone that wakes beside me each day
Someone that always brings sunshine my way

Someone that understands my every mood
Someone that makes every moment feel good

Someone to talk to about my dreams and fears
Someone who listens not just hears

Someone that loves me more than I can ask
Sigh! Finding this someone is such a task!

OH LIFE!

Oh Life! I flow....
Not knowing where I go,
Can't fathom what I am,
Don't understand what I know,
Still I tread this path to see,
Where o where would it lead me,
Why do I do what I do,
You would be lost if you were me too!

AN ESSENCE OF LIFE

A pleasant cool breeze brushes past,

Wafting towards you a scent unknown,

The smell of which drenches the soul,

As the mind travels to a destination known,

Sweet memories that kindled your heart,

Affectionate arms that around you were worn,

The warmth, the melody of those moments so dear,

Tingle your senses, then make you forlorn,

But soon your lips they curl into a smile,

For inside you, forever, love had been sown,

You reminisce the joys of days long ago,

Until the pages of your past can be torn!

WHEN LIFE SEEMS STAGNATED

Becoming cold, cold, cold to the bone,

Missing the warmth that my heart had once known,

Don't know whether I am tired of being strong,
Or had I always been weak all along?

Waking to yet another day all the same,
Growing weary of this foolish game,

Am I flying or am I falling?
Why is it I can hear no calling?

Living in a world, neither here nor there,
Lost in oblivion without a damn care,

Is this forever or is this a phase?
Can't seem to focus, my mind is in a haze,

What are you when you're both dead and alive?
Isn't that a sorry excuse to survive?

Returning every smile, every frown with an empty gaze,
Trying to find reasons to live the rest of my days!

LONGING FOR LOVE

Gazing upon a starry sky, all alone on a moonlit night,
Wishing you were here, so I could hold you tight,
But all I have for company, is the cold cold breeze,
Making me shiver, letting me freeze,
The night seems dead and so does my heart,
That is how it is when we are apart,
Will it ever be alive? Will it ever beat true?
I am still waiting for my feelings to reach through,
The night be cold but my thoughts keep me warm,
Because it's you I am thinking of, all along,
My heart beats harder when it hears of your name,
But without you it aches all the same,
Come to me, I beg you so,
Love me just once and I'll let you go,
Thereon each night, peaceful I shall sleep,
For in your heart, you found my love worthy to keep!

ROMEO's MUSINGS

It took me a while to awaken my latent love
To take notice of her beauty and being,
So long forgotten were those crimson smiles,
that she now brings upon my face, each time she passes by,

And the furtive glance she never fails to chance upon me,
Her eyes so demure, alluring and appealing, beckoning me to her,
Speaking of distant dreams, of desire and belonging,
The sight of her adds evermore to my longing,

And as I feel her with all my senses within,
I realize she is everything I wished for, she is everything I need,
She has an invisible leash around me, she is irresistible to me!

BLESSINGS FOR YOU

As I prayed to God for you today,
To guide you and protect you,
As you go along your way,
His love is always with you,
His promises are true,
And when we give Him all our cares,
You know He will see us through,
So when the road you're traveling on,
Seems difficult at best,
Just remember I'm here praying,
And God will do the rest!

MY LIL BABY PINK!

This poem is dedicated to my li'l niece Zoey!

Ssssh! She's here.....

How we've waited and we're so glad you've come,
A beautiful lil baby, so cuddle-some,
Our eyes are misty, faces all smiles,
Want to look at your innocent face all the while,
Those tiny little hands and those tiny little feet, Wrapped up in that bundle you look so sweet,
We are already looking forward to those fun-filled days, When you will make us happy in so many ways,
Dear lil darling, you're going to stand out in a crowd, And always make you dada and mamma proud,
So saddle up, lil conqueror of hearts....
It's time to give life a KICKSTART!!

CHEER UP

Think of someone who makes you smile,

Dwell on that thought for a little while,

Then however bad your day might be,

It's only love your heart will see!

SHAKESPERE DEEPLY IN LOVE!!

O! beautiful maiden, how do I describe thee in words so few?
For oft I think of thee and ponder,
Those words that hath been chosen for thee,
Fall so short of your splendour,

If I could only be the dust that touches thy feet,
I would be thine part in a manner so discreet,
Thine face that shines a radiant bright,
Makes my heart flutter as upon thee I set my sight,

Those luscious lips, they speak ever so silently whereupon sits thy smile,
Makes me want to be part of thy haven for erewhile,
Thine eyes so pretty, always lost in a distant dream,
O! how they look lovely even when thou art mean,

Thy body so slender, soft like cream,
Hiding within a heart so clean,
Such that its purity defies white,
Thine soul shines luminous through day and night,

Let me be thine answer when love it is thou seek,
Love hast the power to make the mightiest meek,
For no longer can I my destiny delude,
Thou art my saviour, my joy's prelude!

SHAKESPERE IN LOVE??

This is where my heart resides,

In thy possession, keep it by,

I ask of Thee, Oh! Pretty Thee,

To accept my Love and I.

WHAT IS LOVE?

Love is a blooming flower in the garden of the heart,
Spreading its sweet fragrance to your every part,

Love is the warmth that no sunshine could bring,
Letting your mind dream, making your heart sing,

Love it is the dance of the soul,
Setting you free while making you feel whole,

Love is the eternity that stretches beyond time,
Filling me with hope that someday you will be mine!

HEALING

Of wounds and tears,
Of pain and fears,
We live a life of circumstance,

With a heap of love,
With a leap of faith,
We ought to give life a chance!

THINGS I'LL DO FOR YOU

As we walk through the doors of time, 

With my hand in yours and your hand in mine, 

I promise to cherish each moment that we spend, 

To hold you, to love you until the end! 

I pledge to honor your every desire,

Even if it means that I have to burn through fire,

I will always pay heed to whatever you feel, 

To keep you smiling I will beg, I will steal, 

I will strive to keep your tears at bay, 

Lest they flow, I'll know what to say, 

I will be faithful, I would never sin, 

In all our arguments I will let you win, 

If you're sick, I will never leave your side, 

By all your moody tantrums I will abide, 

I will stand by you in all that you believe, 

When you are tired I will be there to relieve, 

I will protect you but your freedom I will respect,

There is nothing from you that I shall expect,

Only hope that, while we look back through those doors of time, 

My hand will still be in yours and yours in mine!

FREED FROM DESIRE

Walking by, Fading in,
Come of age, yet all alone,

Parked in the distance, only hopes,
Fate one day will untie life's ropes,

That day when the soul will be freed,
From the clutches of one's own greed,

A fire will burn, the pyre's mine,
The body's all ashes, the soul divine!
