The Bridge

The pain of longing
Yanking ropes of sanity
Holding up the bridge
That will take me to your side
Where our halves can form a heart

Yearly

A year is two halves
No less nor more very clear
Hot and cold seasons
Summer and autumn
Then the cool winter and spring
There and to me here!

hunger stares
eyes the glistening knife blade
two halves…each whole

Half Life

For every second
the chronometer gains,
the future loses two

The light retreating
time in halves
—the moment old once new

Love In Halves

You
Me
Love
More than the kind for family

You once felt the same
Then along the separation came
Tore us apart
When we weren’t made to end
We were made to start.

Is a Cut Up Apple a Pie-

An apple is sliced and divided and diced,
into fourths, eighths and halves laid side by side and baked is it a pie

Separation

They used to be
Two halves of the same soul.
Interwoven to the point of being
Inseperable.
But one day,
One of the halves
Pulled away;
And everything
Fell apart...

Being Pinoy

A Filipino
Is like Malus Pumila
Cutting it
Into halves
You’ll find two stars, glowing
For the elegance of its tree, cheerfully
Piping wind songs
To charm
Your daily existence

Half-Fraction Infraction

Listen to poem:
Doing it in halves is a half-life in action for the inaction infraction when job's half done is a fearful act, delivering defeat and failure in measure brim full.

Red Trails Behind Me

red trails behind me

bleeding hearts lie in my stead

two halves, not a whole.

Midheaven

In this midheaven of demigods.
beneath this semidetached shelter 
of semi-manufactured souls.
apart from the half-hearted's dimidiate 
the bright-half departs 
for dovetailing all of our halves.

Slaying Time

Two halves
 from the middle
each end joins the past
Memory’s essence
the moment recast

Each second
or hour
lost victims of fate
 Time off the table
— not early or late

STRIVING FOR WHOLENESS

I wish
Wish for
More of
Of the
The whole
I am
Half of
Whole just
Broken
Just two
Two halves
Striving
for whole
Striving
for
wholeness

Shattered

Shame brought to herself
Hated by others 
Accepted by no one
Torn in many halves
Torment and agony
Enduring her pain
Reminded of her failure
Eternal anguish in her soul
Despised by even the one she loves

TWO HALVES OF LOVE

May we be blessed to experience both halves of the gift of love
(At least the way I see it…the way that I believe)
The first is how wonderful it is to give it…
The second…how wonderful it is to receive.

The Tragic End

Simple eyes
Complex thoughts 
Side by side 
It's torn apart
Miles away 
Once two shared hearts 
Connections unplugged 
Souls now two halves 
Pain creeps in 
A tragic end
No longer lovers 
Not even friends

Chefs Kiss

Ajar, two halves of pita -
spread avocado,
crushed with peppers, cilantro,
cumin, garlic, lime.
Add sliced tomatoes 
and feta.
Mwah!
