THE SAD GNOME
Oi' Billy no mates off on home
I already own a garden gnome

The lonely girl sits at home
She sends messages to a boy
She is interested but wants nothing
He is interested but wants nothing
Pictures are exchanged
Messages are sent
Neither is satiated
The evening ends
The same day begins

I wanna be the one,
the one you call home,
the one you call your own,
the one you would sneak in your college dorm
and watch movies together under the moon,
I wanna be the one,
the one walking down the aisle, lookin at you,
and to hear you say 'I Love you too'.

I was born watching him rock.
His passing away left me in grief and shock.
Feels like life got stuck in a dock.
Death came home like a hawk.
No more escape from the dark
Light ain't staying forever in park.
For all of life I will remember the date.
That nobody runs away from the fate.

The sweetest, most special thing I've ever heard--
(though as a kid, Mother Teresa thought it absurd)
Was her mother's primping before her father returned
Every work day evening, after their bread was earned
She always wanted to welcome him home with love
& their shared mission was to lead their kids Above

Hold on!
Hold on a little longer
Please don't burn to ashes and desiccate
Hold on a little longer
Because this is not yet enough for us
Like long starry nights, beneath a star's fall
A child dreams home, home of happiness
And if the word 'forever' was my life;
"I would have wished for you"
Forever to be drowning in love..

Returning home
Back to the beginning
Or is it?
I’m a different soul
Not the same as before
Too many broken pieces
Scattered around the world
So I’m returning home
To sore no more
Returning home
Where the past and the future collide
I’ll see you soon
Maybe you’ll love me too
Returning home
I’ll be home for you

W hat I'd like to give you, is an ounce of my perfume.
A beautiful aroma that wafts around the room.
N o need to be coy, we have the same desire.
T he passion within us is an all consuming fire.
E very day our love grows stronger.
D on't worry about anything, just hold me longer.

I’m Off to new lands
Away from my dearest home
What odds shall I face?
Strangers all around
Nowhere for me to fit in
Kind of lonely place
Oh but I have you
Tender hands wipe tears away
Strong arms to embrace
You’ve swept me away
Beyond all the city lights
Fingers interlaced
To the countryside
Hidden in the Grove: A Castle
For me to be Queen

All the shimmering lights in the galaxy will lead you home,
It will happen,
When you heart will leave the darkness of this imaginary world,
Where people will rise in love instead of falling,
Where people will know the meaning of forever,
Then we can this world a world of light,
Where you will belong to me and I will belong to you.....

I, ashamed.
On my last trick
Feeling heartsick –
To conquer is selfish but brave.
Focus, feel peace.
Pinwheeling
Cling to the last thrilling –
Heart clutches and trembles and caves.
Spinning, reclaimed.
Hang on home harbor
Under ancient arbor –
The treasure that’s never repaid.
Refresh, release.
It’s a strange cycle
Paint me, pin me idle –
Tame me and ride with the waves.

The jobless man
Empty pocket
Empty kitchen
Empty plate
Empty pot
Empty Tommy
Empty pulse
The Jobless man
No money
No food
No home
No social benefits
No state support fund
No basic life
The jobless man
Dead system
Corrupt government
Victim of a Brutal regime
Failed politicians
Hopeless chances
Damaged mind
And now in the street hanging
Around as
The jobless man

Your touch awakened me from the dead
Your kiss started a fire of deep desire
In your embrace, I knew I was home
Your are my king and I am your queen
I love everything about you and more
My dreams came true when you appeared
I keep your picture and every love letter,
locked in the depths of my heart
My lonely days are no longer lonely,
when you visit me in my dreams

Your masculine embrace will always be my home
As you confess your love to me, my heart quivers
I’ll never forget when we said our vows in Rome
Your masculine embrace will always be my home
Kiss me, my love; it's sweeter than a honeycomb
To get to you, I would swim across many rivers
Your masculine embrace will always be my home
As you confess your love to me, my heart quivers

It hurts so deep,
And you make me cry,
That maybe back at the station,
That, that was our last goodbye.
We both know that you're strong,
But we both know the chances,
That things go wrong.
I wait for you,
Wait for your call,
And never get a notice,
That battle,
Was your downfall.
Come back safely,
My Soldier Love,
My Captain,
Come home to safety.
March on home my Captain,
March on my solider love,
Keep you head up high,
And look to him above.

Like books and stories,
I met a stranger.
My body didn't touched him yet,
I feel deeply connected.
I feel like he's my home,
A place where I can rest,
A place where I feel safe,
A place where I can be myself.
He's so holy,
His soul is exquisite.
Dear God ! Let me keep him,
Please let me adore him.
My soul craves his intimacy,
Without touching his body.
I want this euphoric feeling,
Never to end at least not now.
- I want this forevermore

The love I feel for you is the reason I breathe
It is the smile on my face;
it is the love poem written on my heart
that nothing can erase
it is the strength that I find when I need it the most
it is the perfect pedal on the most beautiful rose
it is my direction when I am lost and alone
wherever we are...our love makes it home
it is my stepping stone guiding my way
it is the reason I am truly okay
it is the reason we will always be
it is the love that never leaves

There are still things to be done.
Places within you that I can call home.
There are depths to dig
And heights to climb,
There are still things about you that have yet to blow my mind.
There are kisses beneath the moon.
Stars to wish upon.
There is a world in your eyes that awaits for me to find.
There is still room for redemption.
We can shed our skin and never have to look at the bruises from our past.
We can sculpt our faults and singe our scars to the wind.

Our home was lit with autumn's spicy scent.
Now spent are the forms that had something to hold:
votive molds, photo frames, vases.... forsaken.
The form within my breast, too, is forsaken,
no longer pressed against your Old Spice scent.
Once, we had each other to hold....
Now memories are the substance we hold.
Your sloughed skin dust is not yet forsaken;
a whiff remains of seasonal clove scent....
Forsaken spiderwebs hold your signature scent.

Sitting in silence i wait for you you.
Even though its dark i stay.
I went out like a light.
I feel a shinning presence before me.
Snapping awake.
I get a rush of adrenaline.
Laying my eyes upon them .
My heart skips a thousand beat.
I feel a tap of my shoulder.
Looking up to them.
There face as if all the light in the world had been stolen and put into a face.
Hair like silk.
Eyes like stars.
Voice like the sounds of violin.
Home isn't a place to me its them.

SUBMITTED FOR CONTEST---WAITING
age, bereavement, for her, for him, heaven, husband, wife,
"LOVE WAITS!"
She will wait for him
He will wait for her
In heaven up above
Or on earth at home
Their loves have grown
Their love is forever
They are seniors now
Their love hasn't aged
But their body and minds
Grow old and weary
For their sojourn to come
That final love spent wait
For whoever is left behind
Will wait and not forget
The other one waits as well!

Awesome looks
Prosperous life
Professional job
Witty wise brains
Architectural home
Branded new car
Fashionable clothes
Elegant jewelry
Richness beyond average
Power beyond leverage
Authority beyond reach
High fallooting overall
All he can imagine
All he can buy
All he can have
All he can have
Yet, What he didn't know?
True love isn't a coy toy
Anywhere, I will bow
This will be before and now

You are with me, in my thoughts and in my dreams
My world revolves around you
I cannot escape you, so it seems
From waking up and seeing your face
To the moments when we’re apart
I count down the minutes, until I am back in your embrace
You are like home, with you I am obsessed
I’ve never felt so safe and warm
Then when I’m in your arms, lying on your chest
With you by my side, the future looks bright
Every day with you is and adventure
So, take my hand and hold on tight

A day feels like mist of the wee hours,
once again I regale myself with
the buzz and the fuss
Coaxing my heart out of sulking
for it is an utter melancholy
and slightly a jest
TO MISS THE WIND KEENLY FELT
BUT CANNOT BE GRASPED
A tad mockery to be often left
by my own home as though giving away
is almost granting the world a consent
to steal from me
Yet I live through those tiny pleasures and loud celebrations ceaselessly shining your humble crown
for even my heart then stands on the highest pedestal

You are my heart's home,
You are those reborn rays of light,
Even amidst darkness that roam.
You are the fragrant filled breath,
That my lungs intake
If you are a sin
I'd love to be a sinner,
To perpetrate this sin
And repeat this mistake.
You are my untamed desires,
Perfect present,
And priceless morrows,
For whom I'd strip
My instincts bare.
You are the blissful sparks
To my endless beginnings
You are my mindful obsession,
Bordered with heartfelt devotion.
