The essence of your
whole being
confronted me and told
me
to hang on to what we
had one nite.
In spite of many
lonesome miles filled
with magic,
my soul seems emptier
without your smile and
fearless insight.
After the first and
last nite
we spent together,
your touch stills lingers
on my isolated body.
Karma-have i done something
good to
deserve your company?
Or have i simply fell
into paradise
on this ever-flowing
earth.
Until our souls have
a chance to caress
again. . . . . .
i leave you with my
void.
This institution makes
me scream.
falsely decorated in
dim possibilites and
undying unanimous voices
the surface is the only
thing around here
and i
wait for a new world.
. . . . .
Waiting for such a long
time
has shown a different
side of me
and tears don't come
quite as easily
i can't let them inside.
. . . . .
solitude can be a beautiful
thing
but occasionally it
can and will
slowly kill a person
Does that make death
beautiful too?
Flowing-leaving back
the everything
keep on going
running into the deep
sea
leave the past
back where it belongs
and
keep on going
don't linger too long
The changes we face
everyday
must be met with a smile
as we experience them
and as we go on
we'll laugh and be happy
to meet every change
once again
If you wonder where
the time has gone,
maybe its suffered
intrusions at the hand
of society.
As we rush about with
a simple sort
of contagiousness,
we're oblivious to patience
and
contentedness.
We're one with
the hours of the clock
ticking by. . . . .
We're suffering under
our own
hands by forgetting
to stop and smell the
flowers
and to have a nice cup
of tea
every once and a while.
Why don't we just take
a life giving breath and
live life
one breath at a time.
SOULMATE
i've finally crushed
the misconception. . . . .
i need someone divine
to hold.
For i've been deprived
of your unknown
yet,
ethreal eyes,
deep and so controlling,
for my entire life.
There has always been
a void
and my confusion turned
me away
from love.
And certain moments
i feel
i will never know you.
My heart wither at the
mere thought.
Reassure my searching
and give my unanswered
questions
complete and intricate
answers
as i know you would.
For i have been alone
so long.
