Short Rubbles Poems

At the end of war,
    victory stinks;

       part of us lies
buried

    beneath
           the rubbles....

 Here I go searching for it 
        again 
 Amongst the rubbles of my 
broken heart...
Like a flower that blooms 
     each springtime 
 It grows inside of me,  
            time and time
            Again*...

The Other Side

The day looms tall 
Crushing the hopes 
of every budding reed
with ruinous strikes 
of harrowing memories 
raiding the mind
See the broken rubbles
of shattered Dauntless desires
dancing with the blustering wind
bestowing bleakness 
stirring endless expectations
...

Mountains I tread break to rubbles;
Arts I sculpture wane to scribbles;
The defiant paladin has effaced from presence
And a gruesome ghost is left behind;
God despises my very existence
Burning this life he once lent;
He blunt my sword and burnt my shield
But my feral heart will never yield....

Mingle  shattered  in shocks
Velocity shaking in sleep known fault
Catastrophe  strip away  sirens
Underneath  rubbles   
Canan fires  and looters

Missing in survival dreams
Warp  dressing dreaperes
Eyes of sun blind in light  in nightfall 
Under chipped and cracked 
Departed from you again...

My face tiled in rubbles
make my troubles visible,
result of my lamed fights,
became my life unfeasible.

Don't talk about my mojo,
if you don't like it,
it will chase you all the time,
if you don't stop it.

Child soldier Ishmael Beah,
who jumped to peace,
who let go the bullets,
to embrace world of man free....

What once was a home,
Is now a mess,
Many left homeless,without any 
hope,
But the community pitched in, 
and a flag stood proudly,
Every1 stared and prayed oh so 
loudly,

Although it is sad,
People smile, as neighbors and 
helpers, 
Helped clean some rubbles,
So thank you god, not for the 
damage,
But for showing us the true 
meaning of friendship...

Can a tattoo leave a wake of suspicion
roving in my mind,
maybe I'm surrounded by phony people,
a deception of the human kind.

Wandering in rubbles of dreams,
after a long walk I sat,
the problem is not knowing
where I'm looking at.

When I look to the puddle,
imagery appears in the reflection,
and when I'm convinced that's reality,
I'm completely full of deception....

for it, the hot-blooded campus youth
   booed and cheered, fought and cheated;

      adrift in the hysteria of intramural sports,
         the losers wailed, the victors jubilated;


now dusty, it leans on a heap of rubbish,
   the Overall Champion trophy once golden,

      lost in the rubbles of the demolished gym,
         a relic of a youthful season long forgotten!...

what Caesar? what Rome? What History? What Victory ?
Search in the rubbles! in ruins they lie!
What mansion? what wealth? what silver? what gold?what treasures?
what becomes of them after  you die?
moments of joy, memories of family and love,
are worth more than what money can buy!!

Loneliness.
It wrings the life out of you, 
Till you're but a candle at the bottom of the ocean. 
Loneliness.
It's the level of hell, 
Right below the rubbles of your abandoned existence. 
Loneliness. 
It's the mother of all these ghosts, 
Screaming for life in the deaf crowds of mortals. 
Loneliness. 
It makes death cry, 
With cold souls            disturbingly calm between his cracked palms.

Glistening rubbles in the sky,
Huddling up and abound so high;
Precious jewels in my sight,
Touching you through dreams tonight.
Cosmos most wondrous beauty,
Artwork of God-Almighty.
Glistening rubbles in the sky,
Huddling up and abound so high.
