SLEEP THY BE MY ENEMY

Sleep o dear sleep
Thou hast become elusive
Casting dark shadows upon eyen
Anon need I seek vile lil pills
To soothe and beseech thee
Pray o pray let me fare
Thou seest that I warrant your grace
Sing me o just a lullaby
Hie 'cause I ought to wake at morn

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!

FRIEND

A friend is someone we turn to when our spirits need a lift,

A friend is someone to treasure, for friendship is a gift,

A friend is someone who fills our lives with Beauty, Joy & Grace,

And makes the world we live in, a better and happier place.

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!!
