Best Passionday Poems
Today is the day my heart has to take a stand
Against the agony and anguish of being alone.
Hopefully today, my head can make it understand
That it has unequivocally had the upper hand.
It’s a prudent proposition, the evidence has shown;
Today is the day my heart has to take a stand.
How can you hold on to this hollow strand
Holding this overly oppressive weight of stone?
Hopefully today, my head can make it understand
That forever is but a forgotten fire never fanned
By the fervor of two fevered souls never grown.
Today is the day my heart has to take a stand.
Hasn’t the bullying, bullfighting, butting and
Beating been enough to burst every single bone?
Hopefully today, my head can make it understand
That war is definitely warranted and I command!
Love has become loathsome liar we must disown!
Today is the day my heart has to take a stand,
Today, my head will make it understand.
The Brightness in her eyes to my "suprise" brought out the Day Light. Her walk
was
straight, her smile was bright, just like the Day Light.
She greeted people gracefully with such compassion and Love.
Her composure was not Dark it was just like the Day Light. Both Day and Night,
even
when she was not in sight, you visioned her just like the Day Light.
After the day is over
Withdraw the night to come
Of overwhelming tiredness
Covered up, wrapped my bones
I return to her
After every event
I return to her
After every tear
I return to her
After every cheer
I return to her
After every discussion
I return to her
After every argument
I hug her so intensely
Never want to let go
I hug her with every pleasure
Of my thoughts
With every agony she had suppressed
With every tear she has shed
With every day that has passed
With every hour that clarified
Her devotion
Her will
To never let go
I hugged her with every will
That lasted because of her
I hugged her
My mother
So frightened of the thought
That one day I may wake up
And never find a reply
My heart is feeling empty and sad
Not finding you is driving me mad, oh why
Can’t I be a bird and spread my wings and fly
To soar over rivers and mountains to where you are
But who are you? I don’t know you yet
I’m still waiting for the day, the day that we first met
Was the torrid sun shining or did icy diamonds glint
Did we watch from afar knowing closeness was imminent?
Did our eyes meet and melt into each others?
Was our conversation fluid and never ending till we became lovers?
Were are kisses impatient, did our touches grow intense
Was our breath heavy, when our energy was spent?
Did we lie together relaxed in each others arms?
Contented in our oneness
Mesmerised by each others charms
When will that day be my love, how long must I wait?
Can it be just a matter of time to fulfill our fate?

The scales torture me
as every day I try to regain my balance
why was I born to this sign?
it drives my mind to distraction
it tears my heart in two
My soul fights for imbalance
as every day it seeks to tip the scales
in favour of all that is good
all that is just
all that is beautiful
Every act of kindness that I witness
lights a candle in my soul
Every voice raised in anger
sees one go out
I cannot live in darkness
it eats away at me
it destroys me
So I live my life lighting candles
I will not rest until there is no anger
no injustice
no ugliness in this world
I have finally come to understand
that the weight of evil
is very heavy indeed
that the balance cannot be tipped
until the darkness
is banished, forever
Every day my soul shines a little brighter
Every day my heart is a little less broken
Every day my mind finds a little more peace
I sat upon some one another man. With unjust feelings I could of Ran. I decided to let my
heart go
to let it over flow. Every one around me was saying this is bad even my conscience was
saying how sad. But I sat upon another man day in and day out it's like my heart had a
plan. He said what I wanted to hear and brushed away my tears. He made me feel what I
wanted to feel I felt so loved to feel that real. I sat upon another man some one from my
Church. I tried to search for answers but only came up torn. I had to keep this
baby....The baby that was unborn. I sat upon another man.
To my dearest dear…
We met a long time back
The day do you remember?
That was the day when I met you first time
Together we cracked japes and together we smiled
Since then you gave my life a song with rime.
Do you still remember the day….
When we shared our days agone
Buried under days for long
I felt upon your shoulder and you condole me with your gabbles
I smiled back and you felt my awes.
Do you still remember those days…
Futile browsing and sashays
The weekend theaters and those daily affrays
Borrowing fictions and gassing at cafes
Oft visits and those duo contests.
Do you still remember those days….
Waiting for you at the footbridge
You came upon with a hug
And headed no-where
But that everyday city-centre.
Do you still remember that day…
Out of the blue moon
You disappeared suddenly
I looked for you here and there
Months later you came upon with a sob story.
Do you still remember that day…
The new year’s first day
The game of four flush
and the cheer up whisky glass.
Do you still remember that day…
The see off and my last hidden tears
The hokey talks and recollecting those days
We spent together.
I hope you still remember..
How much I miss you
I hope you still remember..
How much I care for you
I hope you still remember..
How I use to freak you
I hope you still remember..
Me as your pal
I hope you will remember..
These lines written for you today.
I will be waiting for you, a reply
Till then, I want to say you goodbye.
Your most dearest…..longed amigo.
Please Note: This poem is dedicated to one of my best friend Sritama De.
ALL FOR TODAY
A bright morning
Full of expectation
It was the D-day
The day I’m to have
Her silhouette unveiled.
Contemplated if I’m to travel
Or to wait till morrow
No longer to be delayed
For the day has come.
I laugh at myself
As several questions
Slip off my mouth
Am I looking cute enough?
No, which cloth do I go with?
I changed my cloth. . my luggage thrice
To keep fit . . . look scintillating
All is for today, the day I’ve waited for.

Still at the Mowe/Redeeem Traffic jam
You and me, what a perfect thing in life
Me now your girl, in the future hopefully your wife
My days are happy because you are mine
I pray you are my God chosen because a love like you is so hard to find
Going a day without seeing you
Makes my day even harder to go through
When I look into your eyes
I get all excited inside
I will love for us to be together forever
For us to be in love together
If you would forever be the other half of me
That part of my life would be so complete
I want to grow with you
Years from now, I would like to share apart of me with you
Thomas, these words does not fully describe my feelings
Which within me runs so deeply
You mean so much to me
And I pray that things go nowhere but up for you and me
I stood on the river hoping that
you would come to my arms.
Still remembering all of your love,
and your heart stopping charms.
I stood on the river as around my
feet the small carps would play.
I told you I'll wait so from spring
through fall, winter and summer
I'll stay.
I watched the trees grow old and
heard the deaths of birds who
sing.
As my skin burn from the sun and
as it would later through the cold
sting.
I prayed every night while the
moon in the sky would pass.
I cried every day for I knew each
may be my last.
I stood on the river as the bear
made his charge.
And bleed in the river as the scars
he made grew large.
I tasted the river, the cool sorrow
knowing you I will not see.
My tears laid within the river
slowly moving away from a love
never to be.
I never did send out moans or yell
while in constant pain.
Just what I always did, just called
out your sweet name.
I was dying in the river but my
soul fought to stand guard.
But it could not go against man's
designed no matter how hard.
As my eyes slowly close for what I
knew was my farewell.
I saw you coming as my name you
continued to yell.
I cursed this river knowing from
me it was all taken.
And forcing me into a slumber
never from which to awaken.
My eyes opened to see you lying
with your beautiful eyes close.
I cried so hard when I realized
that we exchanged are souls.
You said a few words, but I was
deaf to all talk.
Then you gave your life so I may
away from this river one day walk.
But I have no where to go since
the one I waited for is right here.
And as I turn the world is so foggy
and this river remained clear.
So this river I'll sit and make it
rise as I cry.
And give a last smile when in this
river I die.
Which day is there to call the best
The best may have been already
Every day comes standing itself out
The day 0f my birth stand as the best.
If I hadn't come into the world the day I did
There wont be any day to look to as the best
Every day comes with its very uniqueness
Every day goes with its own memories.
Coming straight from the womb world I know
Coming into this world of true uncertainty
Every day showcases tendency of being best
Living a once in a life time existence.
I may not be quite aware of that day
But I am in the know of the existence
Regarding my birthday as my best day in life
I celebrate the best day of my life every year.
Your beauty is almost unbound
And yet there seems to be a quiet sadness in your eyes
You always seem so radiant,
So magnificent in every move you make
I see you as a falling star,
Dying for someone to catch you
And with every ounce of by being I wish on you
For you to be caught by someone who loves you
That someone, I hope, is me
I love every breath you make
I could fall into utter darkness
Just living in the light of your eyes
Your pale skin, so pure, like the wings of an angel
And with these wings I would take flight
Taking our love to the heavens,
That it may be cherished by all
And on this day, day of love, day of hope
I hope that you have a wonderful day
I pray on the very angelic sight of you
That my day has even a glimpse of the wonder that is you
At the heart of you, and at the soul of you
May the light and the radiance I see in you be cherished for all time
May it be the light that guides others to happiness
May your heart never be broken
May your angelic nature never be tainted by pain again
From this time, live on with the knowledge you are loved
Cherished and even worshiped. You are in my heart and soul
Forever, even after time itself ends I will love thee
As the 45th day of the year approaching,
I perceived the gestures of the sunset
Preventing me of the time remaining
And the special day to reveal any secret!
Even though, I was so devoid of my own soul,
Today is the perfect opportunity for me
To enunciate my feelings for you even in Creole,
To abolish the devious ways inside of me.
Thus, let’s the real love start again!
Let’s refresh our memory from regrets!
Let’s relish under this unusual rain!
Let’s share our love despite our huge debts!
Valentine’s love conveys us to our fate.
Let me cajole you, showing my true love!
Let our hearts groove, again, let them vibrate!
This is what we’re living for: all the above!
To this night, I would love thee under the darkest of a shaded moon.
I would love as if my heart was that of the light.
In a way none other knows.
In a way, that would make your toes turn and a mmm’
come out from your sweet lips of passion.
As I know, because they shine that of a red passion.
That of a kissable touch, as I day dream of our first touch.
As I sat here and think of your curves of delight.
I get hard core, all the way to the inner soul delights.
Feeling that of your love, I crave.
I work even harder for that day of praise.
That day of true love and salvation.
When I can gladly say, you are my woman.
But most of all, it’s about what makes you and me.
And that’s the blood pumping through, heart and soul.
It’s about the pleasures in life.
Not just sexual but that of real life.
It’s about me knowing you and us sharing true life.
But most of all, it’s just knowing you have someone to love.
As I have met someone, I could just fall in love.
That if I’m not careful, I could be hurtful in love.
Because I would give all my heart to you the with love.
She said all she ever wanted was to know the feeling of being wanted
all she ever needed in life was the one thing she knew how not to get
see she been through a lot and….
just didn’t want to go through life not experiencing love in its truest form
to her all that mattered was if she can have a moment leading to others where she
can give another person the title of “him”
pictures and stories told gave her a distant feeling of what it was like to be with
someone who made the night “stand still”
its not that she is too old but the youthfulness in her waiting ages second by second
Every night she dreams of a promise that leads to a life with a “Happily Ever After”
She even has this dream during the day at certain moments…
all she knows is that the success in her life seems to be in its embryonic stage and
only love can make it complete
Before she runs out of things to live for all she wants is something that’s worth dying
to
Everyday she sees the same people but there’s this one person she sees with a
different feeling each day
All these thoughts run through her mind but with just a little bit of uncertainty
So she looks at him and in turn he does the same..
One blink…then another blink…and the unspoken conversation is over
and as she looks away the sky darkens and the day is……over
as she walks away she tries to relive the moment and comes to the conclusion that
the next day is a new “conversation”
so as she walks to the same destination the next day all she could think about is
what was said in their blinks
then he looks up and her heart seems to beat almost three times before
because….there he was again
in her mind came thoughts of all sorts
He seemed like the right person..well dressed, looked successful, never walking with
the wrong crowd
but she asked herself if a step and a word was better than the blinks of last time
One thing that never changed was the fact that
She said all she ever wanted was to know the feeling of being wanted
all she ever needed in life was the one thing she knew how not to get
see she been through a lot and she never wanted to be the…..
Broken Hearted…….
