Here Without You
Here without you 
Paints me a realization that life isn't easy
It displaces the settling railroad
Taken away by the midnight train's calamity 

Waiting impatiently 
to face some inspiration given by God
Over the driver and I 

By the way you shrivel up...

The Silent One
Who is living alive inside of you? 
Do you even really want to know?
Have you ever spoken to the one that is always speaking to you?
Are you stacking all of your priorities with any proper...

Escapism
I remove my glasses to blur my view, 
of my disgraceful face, that’s painted a strange hue.
Reality peers back at me, from the bottomless
shallow mirror, 

My self peers back at me, 
with disbelief, regret and...

Let Me Go
Why do you tell me what you think I want to hear?
Why do you keep me hanging on...
So long after you have gone... 
Knowing my heart will only continue to break,
As it has done for...

Song of My Love
The song of my love is heard
It travels over Seas and mountains 
Bearing cadences that make the fishes dance
It frolics over hills and oceans 
With rhythms that adorn the eyes of the sun 
Sniffing the...

Karen
When I walk down the paths that wind 
Through the canyons of my mind, 
I find mystic scrolls of wishes and dreams, 
Floating on Destiny’s streams.
Never shall these dreams and wishes 
Be abandoned, forgotten Fishes;...

We Have Been Here Before
Though years slip by through time
  if you live long enough and rewind;
  you get to see that history
  is ever a  repetitive cyclic mystery.

Refugees and immigrants raped
  always seeking...

Sober Reflection
SOBER REFLECTION


As  I was considering human actions,
My mindset was geared towards repecaution,
Replacing the position of gladness with saddened motions,
I once asked father ''what was the cause of human situation''
He said '' son its because...

"we are
All pawns in the chessboard of an
Unknown skilled magician..." (By Poet)

On a calm tranquil afternoon,
When playful chirping and cooing  
Of birds lavishly entertain my throbbing senses,
I drown myself in reverie and retrospection,
Of times...

Crazy Thoughts
I have a long list
A list that should lead to a wedding feast
I’ve search in lands so arid
In a bid to get married
I’ve met so many
So vain and so dandy
They all thought they were charming
With...

Anticipation
Moon, Moon, see what I give you, moon.
an offering, as images
Hitherto quiescent in their primal darkness
Writhe upward from the writhing mind
Like sacrificial smoke.
For now my mind avid for the sea
Destined to replace it surges like...

Tomorrow Holds Not My Future
YESTERDAY HOLDS NOT MY FUTURE
Yesterday is died and gone in vain
Tomorrow equally died yesterday In my eyes
So yesterday holds not my future 
But the forgone memories of unachieved
Work and dreams which laid within me yesterday

The Journey Home
Restless
 how slowly life seems to flow
in youth, ever in a hurry and on the go,
 rushing toward the coming of age
living quick and fast on a passing stage
 finding out nothing truly lasts;
suddenly the...

Two Children
Two children lost in the wood and snow,
 huddled by a small but tended fire,
 clinging together for warmth and safety,
That was the story of our lives.

Imbedded in the old and tattered photo,
 lay the...

Unplayed Strings
What good is the wave, if sails,
It awaits no means, destination.
What good is the tide,
If it rises and falls over sights of unpleasant expectations.
What good are words,
If it's origin comes from unproposed intentions.
For even, has...

Show Me How To Pray
I did not go to church today,
I just couldn’t find it in my heart to pray.

Oh, I could try and find some explanatory excuse,

Old Dreams
Old Dreams

In the evening when the moonlight;
Gently falls on land and sea.
Old dreams come like wolves at midnight;
Come to howl and torment me.

Dreams of youth their glory ended;
Fall behind sweet sorrow's vale
Dreams of love by...

A Letter To Life
Oh! life, how sweet how bitter
have you been to me 
sometimes you treat me better
sometimes so mean 

There were days of salty tears
also days of sugary smiles
They were night to hard to bear
birthing hope littered...

Night
I love the night from dusk 'til dawn, 
It's the only time to carry on 
with thoughts and dreams still unachieved, 
my whole life plan at night conceived. 

No light's distractions, no buzz of sound,...

Poets and Poetry
In pondering poets and poetry, the question rises
as to what inspires both .

drowning and recording the aching spirits of the soul. 

They speak the mind and heart revealing
the very secrets...

Tomorrow
If we sit and believe,
That we are the leaders of tomorrow,
Then i am duly afraid,
Extremely perturbed,
That we won't have a tomorrow to lead.

If we don't strive,
To lead, not to follow,
How sad, 
Uhh… how bad,
That the...

I feel lost within the mirror’s eyes
Those charming narcissistic pools
As vast and blue as endless skies
Glittering like two polished jewels

As I look deep within those gems 
I recollect such secret...

Sucked finger made a lifetime mark

Confidence was her best friend
Humour was the twinkle in her eye
Oooh,that temper,say no more
