Iana

by Mel Eyas Dicdican 

I do not know what word to express 
   when I see the smile on your face. 
It seems to me that I could reach the star 
   and you are there sitting afar. 
It makes me feel blessed 
   when someone like you holding my wrist. 
I cherished the moment that we shared 
   and even your single word can be heard. 

A gift of joy is given to me 
   and I thank you for coming into my way. 
A precious gold could be found somewhere 
   but you are beyond compare. 
All by myself I will keep this 
   till the moment that I'll find rest. 
A person that really touched my heart then 
   could never be forgotten. 

Never did I expect that you were there 
   until my heart heard your whisper. 
Nobody knows how precious you are to me 
   not even my peers but only heaven and me. 
Never-ending gratitude to the One 
   though everything is not yet done. 
Now that you read this 
   hope we would be at peace. 

Amid the noise of this passing world 
   I know you could hear whatever might be told. 
And your heart would listen 
   despite the misunderstanding back then. 
After all, I hope and I pray 
   that everything would be okay. 
All the rest of my life I will take care of you 
   because I know I love you.

Nothing inspires the poetic pen more than love in all its textures and colors. I like this one Mel. Sweet, sincere, ever hopeful, ever true. I have some comments which I'd rather not write down here...but I see that the email option is not as before. Keep writing, keep reading other's pieces and welcome to Poetry Soup, Mel.
