I, too,
wish to carry a bullet
for the ducks flying through snow.
I, too,
want to live under neon lights—
blue light still my closest friend.
I, too,
take cold showers
until my hands stop shaking,
snapping red like nerves.
I, too,
clasp my hands after killing a mosquito,
even if blood and genes mean nothing.
I, too,
walk through mist,
loving the snails that move slow like me.
I, too,
carry an apple in my throat.
If the mic drips with honey,
I’ll recline and listen in silence.
Do we truly see eye to eye, or merely pretend to align?
A prayer-like wind passed through me.
If only time can solve this,
how could I not
I, too,
want to type without thinking.
If I press the TAB key,
maybe summer and fall will appear.
I, too,
bury my face in my frontal lobe,
whispering “today, for sure,”
until it stops being a lie.
I, too,
wanted cherry blossoms.
Who swept the petals away before I arrived?
I almost asked aloud—
but there was no one to answer.
you are my ex for many reasons
I stayed past my learning season
thanking you for many lessons
hard but true hidden blessings
in a situation that was tainted
horrible picture of me you painted
you were broken in many places
feed off me and my good graces
several years past and u still the same
don't want to heal only want to blame
your sick mind thinking were a couple
I sit back shaking my head and chuckle
I am free of your monstrous bitterness
enjoying my self love and happiness
pray you find a way through the dark
it's hard and not a walk in the park
you're capable just trust and believe
stop face yourself and you will achieve
I always had the heart and courage to move on
decided to heal love my self and now I'm gone
my love energy is pure true and irreplaceable
took it for granted now you're being debatable
too late to act like we together and in true love
ready to receive the love I deserve from above
deceptive love
trickles of respect
traces of truth
inaccessible emotions
shadow of honesty
shady lust
spontaneous lies
unintentional commitment
traitorous loyalty
deficient communication
collection of secrets
We two try to walk parallel,
Our relation not marital.
Unable to walk together
but we can't walk away either .
Don’t try to judge who is better.
as oil can't mix up with water.
Happy ending is not certain.
This chance may or may not happen.
Truly, we may not get along.
Yet not to separate life long.
Necessarily we feel thrill .
No commitment but making deal.
Facing clash at every corner
Useless to know, who is winner.
When I come, she is sure to go.
Yet my ego not to forego.
If oil goes on an explosion,
Water controls situation.
Yet we can't prepare 'Solution.'
Mixing yields just an‘Emulsion.
Our action and interaction
always end in contradiction .
Whatever, we cannot break up !
Somehow we are bound to tie up.
Memories lost within a frozen mist
I wanted warm kiss got frozen hiss
Heart so cold without masquerade
Black bold eyes of lies embraced
We were once so cranberry close
Sharing ourselves and souls of gold
Then denim dilemma came with wrath
I’ll rouge remember every single fact
Painting over the loving yellow years
Four leaf clover is blue with tears
In phases I grew to rise like smoke
The mist a frozen clue I can let go
While wisdom may not be enough to calm your fears,
It can make your heart shed many tears.
But most important of all dears. Is that I love to wait.
Don't make me hate.
Someone said that being wise, is not always a prize.
And yet I find it true, to be with someone like you.
We love and we hate, this may not be our fate.
Life is a gamble not always a preamble.
Can you find in me the love I used to be. Or has it gone to
somewhere else beyond. With each day one comes to see,
that life may not always be. And so we try together to not be
a storm in the weather. I always thought our love could last
forever. And yet it couldn't pass the test. Or maybe that was for the best.
I wonder why we tried so hard? That our fears and tears remain like us, apart.
It is not for me just to say, that I loved you anyway.
Every love affair has a villain,
In the grape vines, this, we all learn.
What was once the garden of Eden,
With fights, become, love’s death den.
Where post morning lights ashine,
Forever the dark remains align.
To one; a mistake, abear,
To other; a villain, they heir.
Ever present, sometimes languished,
Almost gone, then reestablished.
This is why, defences high!
To your offer, no reply...
Sounds of a Day in the Past
Cherry Creek was a thriving small town
Children played on swings up and down.
They screamed with delight and why not?
Today with no school, so homework forgot.
How they laughed and frolicked and ran,
All cares forgotten, catch me if you can!
The swings were well-oiled and so no creaks
Could be heard, but happy they enjoyed their leaps.
Not far away, parents and singles formed a march
Protesting against chemical factory built beyond the arch.
Sounds of a Day in the Present
Cherry Creek is now a ghost town
And all the rusted swings are down.
The chemist factory spoilt their fun.
Children in Cherry Town were none.
So many died from deadly fumes
All protests covered in all newsrooms.
But to no avail, for protests fell on dead ears.
Parents left to other places shedding tears.
The only sound you hear is the wind
No swing moved, empty all rust lined.
But I forgot the sound of money,
The factory simply insults me.
Today my girlfriend broke up with yours truly.
"Is there someone else?" I asked. She responded, "There has to be."
Did my words tire you out
Were my actions too loud
Was my love not as soft as you wanted
Since the first moonlight you knew the jigsaw wasn’t bonded
But you still picked it up and glued the pieces down
Just to throw it away because the missing piece would always pronoun
Dismiss, Distort, Defend, Reverse.
The demise of my universe.
Unheard, unfelt, alone, confined;
frustrated, angered, hurt, maligned.
Concealed from us the reason of,
My daemons and their mien. Because...
In all this time we never knew,
How deeply I have suffered too.
Love is unconditional or at least it was suppose to be
All that it seems to do now is end up in misery
Love is not a perception or how one may perceive
It is suppose to be Universal what all strive to acheive
Love is not a story especially one with a happy ending
It is more like a soap opera where everyone is pretending
Love is so very one-sided and there is no room for error
It is a disastrous feeling when the other no longer cares
Love is being eradicated from our entire society
It is very short lived like a drug addicts sobriety
Love is about connection not one of disconnect
It is about each other and it is about respect
Love is what is missing in our world of disarray
It is what we're suppose to live for each and every day
Love is quickly abandoned when one is angry at the other
And it doesn't matter whether friends, kids, sister, or brother

Oh, shed no tear for friendships last gasp.
When the fangs, finally show, a poisonous asp!
Run for your life, head for the highest hill.
The innocent acting asp, on your tail for a tasty kill.
Friends can be asps, don’t you know?
As deadly as frostbite on a frozen toe!
They despised gullible you, having such fun.
You thought them sincere, you are a dumb one!
Worse, you wrote sweet, loving tributes to them?
The asp, chortling with laughter like an old hen.
And now left with few friends, you trusting,old fool.
While the asps, eyes shine, laughing at gullible….. you!

I have a scar, a scar or scars
I have a hurt, a hurt that hurts
My heart feels pained, it feels pains
My love relinquished, it feels relinquished
I tread its path, it tore me apart
I walked its road, on me it rode
Love, though emotional, its hurt's not ephemeral
Love is but a murderer, its kills are subliminal
